If a WE opens in your backline u can use ur rkd , or switch and try to disarm her if u close with OS.
Ur role as rdps should be always providing assist and healdebuff, u not a tank, taking care of backlines is a job tank and the main reason healers have detaunts and other healers to make that WE thing doesnt happen or if happen be cut in half by ur tank team and other healers.
Dps classes should have minimum CC and actualy as SW u have pherhaps one of the best CC tools arsenal on this game outside tank classes ,
all this thread smells of give me more buff me more and more crying without providing a logic of why a dps should be taking care of a backline.
p.s i dont understand SW moans for having to stance dance , marauders , shs , magus, engis wls , all have to micromange their classes in a similar way of stance dance to actualy be better, and profit more .[/quote]
I'm not sure I follow you here... or perhaps you didn't follow anything I wrote. I never once moaned about stance dancing. I think it's an integral part of the SW and something that separates the great players from the... room to improve players.
Just to be clear, a Scout spec'd SW does NOT have access to the rkd... a scout can no longer switch, as you say, and rkd. That was the fundamental point made in this thread. Both Skirmisher and Assault spec'd SW's have access to a KD, a Scout does NOT. (Not since recent changes)
I didn't claim the SW is a tank or is meant to be. No one has. The role of the SW, as you say, has not changed from what it has always been, except that now one of the three specs for a SW is denied a fundamental piece of their kit that the other two specs are not denied.
No one is crying give me more buffs. And what logic needs to be provided for a dps protecting the backline when said dps IS THE BACKLINE!? A similar argument perhaps would be taking away a snare from a tank class and saying it's up to others to provide CC or position themselves better?
Please read the original post before derailing what was said. Thank you.[/quote]
for each class of this game each three provide benefeits , u gotta pick one and play adapting urself to each of the tools the threes give you,
following ur logic , why bw doesnt have CC tools on the aoe three or the single target path ,,, why tanks if want to spec for kd have to pick three,,,,,,
u make 0 sense and in my opinion u just crying for buff me .
if u are in scout takes 1 hotkeysto drop drop ur secs kd .
the goal of tanks having superior snares is exactly to prevent enemys to rush ur backline, if the tank fails on this is the player behind the tank and not the class who has serious issues.
abilitys on scout hits hard and in special some of them provide SW with some of the best anti rdps tools on this game , u have a skill wich reduce the ranged dps enemys distance, u have a very strong finisher , and the biggest hittinng ranged single target skill in the game .
u havent yet provided any relevant point of what fails on the scout three on ths post, u just claimed u cannot defend ur healers from super evil wes sneaking in your backlines, mind you not a special effort or knowledge of the class or effort into details of why u should be dealing with one and why u not gonna use anothers tools u have to deal with her wich requiere to press some buttons and that not even make u have to use a spec point to achieve .
