Levitate + TK: Does it still work?
Have you seen any whine threads about Darth Ronin lately?
Turns out the easiest way to fix the ragdoll glitch was just to remove the repel aspect from TK while pvp'ing.
-Grant "Temporary_Powers.Temporary_Powers.KillTk" (-) If on a PvP map [Ignores Enhancements & Buffs]
Cottage rule my [censored], oh wait pvp doesn't count.
so sonic, you really want to use this technique? it was an exploit of a bug. Still want to use it? well too bad it doesn't work like it used to.

Gotta love how people slot TK for recharge instead of end reduction now. Six seconds with a 60-second recharge is just sad.
"One day we all may see each other elsewhere. In Tyria, in Azeroth. We may pass each other and never know it. And that's sad. But if nothing else, we'll still have Rhode Island."
Ahh I had forgotten TK doesn't repel anymore. Brain fart!
And Neeto, I probably would have used it in zones on a few people I had in mind...
Defender TK still repel, not sure if that one is bug.

LOL...actually, he's busy taking advantage of being uber-buffed with his 4 accounts and 3 shotting things with his newly-buffed Dom. Hold + Snipe + Blast and anything but a tank is in serious trouble. His 'Lift' is doing something in the area of 300 pts. of damage in SC.
I like that Dom's got buffed, but it's no coincidence that you see swarms of them now in zone PvP...just like Widows in previous issues. Can't help but think there might be further adjustments than what was already discussed.
There was a period when his dom was on a lot and whizzing thru SC like a madman with the 3x Vengeance and kin, thermal, cold buffs (TP back to base and do it all over again every few minutes). I haven't seen him for awhile now and hoping the petitions caught up.

Yea, I know, it's bullcarp, only Blasters should be able to 3-shot people from range. Dom's definately need nurfed into next Tuesday yo.

Believe what you want, but I'm not one to call for nerfs...however, I also don't believe any AT should be able to 3 shot anyone. It doesn't make for fun, balanced PvP.
You can choose to ignore it, but eventually the devs have recognized imbalances like this and corrected them. Usually their 'corrections' have gone too far the other way. Hopefully that won't be the case for Dom's, but we'll see.
There is a reason there are 10x the number of Dom's floating around zone PvP these days...you can say that they aren't broken, but play-testing with a number of friends and a few hours in zone (playing as one, and against several) suggests otherwise.

If the dev's are true to form it will be a massive over compensation too

SoilentGreen, you've been around this game FAR too long to be as blind as you're being.
Anytime there are new changes or new "toys" for any AT, there is suddenly a HUGE explosion of them in zones. ANY TIME. It doesn't matter what AT it is. As long as it's a "buff" and not a "nerf" people will come in droves to test and try the changes. If they like the changes, some will stay, but after a couple months, you'll see that many don't. Only the die-hards stay.
There are still JUST as many Stalkers in zone as there are Doms, the reason you are feeling that there are a ton of Doms in zone, is because of a few simple reasons:
Firstly, there are "more" people willing to try them out in pvp right now, thanks to the recent buff and their whined about success.
Secondly, the other half of the players out there...you can't see...because they're Stalkers. So the 8 Dominators you see rolling the zone...looks like alot. Mostly because before, you'd rome the zone and see "maybe" a couple Brutes and a random Corruptor, meanwhile the rest of the red-side was stealthcapped. So sure, it appears as though there are a ton of Dominators, at least alot more than you'd see than before.
Thirdly, there are exactly 2-AT's that do good in zone pvp red-side now. Prior to i15, there was only 1. Those two AT's are now the Stalker and the Dominator, a very well built and very well played Corruptor can make an honorable mention, but that's about it. So...if those are currently the only two good pvp AT's...and one of those AT's sits at stealthcap...who do you expect you'll SEE in zones? Dominators. On top of this, these two AT's happen to synergize very well together in pvp, thus, making their abilities even stronger, but there's nothing wrong with teaming right? Blasters and Empaths do it all the time.
Also, you say that you don't believe that any AT should be able to "3-shot" anyone, yet Blasters have had this "overwhelming" damage advantage over all other AT's from the start. What say you there? Maybe Blasters should be nerfed hmm? Overwhelming "ranged" damage, on top of great survivability. Seems a bit much if you ask me.
Furthermore, Dominators still suffer from being extremely squishy. A half [censored] "simple" spike will destroy most Dominators before they have time to react. They "may" get into Hibern00b in time, but that's just a free kill within the next 30 seconds when they emerge, so they've only prolonged their demise anyways. I know this, from being on both sides of the coin here. I've absolutely wrecked doms with quick spikes while on my Blasters, and I've been absolutely wrecked by Blasters while on my Doms, so I don't see the huge problem here.
Dom's will soon have their damage brought down somewhat, I think it would behoove everyone to hold their tongues, really think about what's going on, and cast judgment "after" the nerfs in the next patch.

This. They are being brought down about 20%, lets wait and see how that works out before constant whines give them the widow treatment.
For once in the history of negative adjustments, lets try to ensure it is reasonable and not a sledgehammer.
We see things a little differently, but I've been around long enough to know that when one AT suddenly sees a huge surge in usage, effectiveness and kill rate in PvP, the devs aren't far behind 'reviewing' things.

I just hope that they consider the fact that there are a LOT of doms at any one time in PVP.
I wonder if they consider or know that certain ATs sometimes have a sweet spot in kill ratios dependent on the number and type of opponent and support ATs.
