Title: Love to hate the Operative!
Post by: Aerendur on 09 February, 2012, 09:04:33 AM
As these things go, after all the complaining and bitching about the nerfs to the Operative. I've really started to like the class now. Especially when I get a friendly blue circle around me, I can do A LOT.

Sure, at my level you cannot be the stunlock killing machine of rape. But with my healing spec I can keep a lot of people rolling or one person under pressure up for a decent amount of time.

At the same time I can keep a whole group of people from capping an objective by dots (my spec will gain another dot, an aoe one, in a few lvls). And if one sneaks past that, I can throw my grenade. The darts are so small that a lot of enemies fail to spot me in the first round or two of applying dots. Once they do, I vanish and can start repeating the cycle when the dots wear off.

I'm hoping that the lvl 40 set will increase my numbers by a fair margin. Best games so far will get me 200-250k healed and 60-120k dmg dealt. Usually grabbing at least 6 medals (killing blow, 2.5k heal, 75k healed, 10 kills, 25 kills and a solo kill). Compare this to roughly 150k dmg and 4 medals in melee spec, since we are that squishy and you can see why I like this spec more atm.

Sure, my sorc can do the same with more ease (less energy management and more get out abilities). But she isn't laughing while doing it. So that makes up for a lot!
