Alright, please don't get confused by saying certain classes or builds are Overpowered or that your class is Underpowered.

Honestly in my opinion, Blood Mages are not overpowered, and neither is Bounty Hunter. People have exploited these classes strengths and dominate with it by abusing it's stats or skills. Most players don't know that EVERY class can do this besides Mercenary (they are very underpowered in my opinion, only because I haven't found an amazing build for them).

For a Bounty Hunter, we all know the simple smoke and massacre build. Some of the builds can go as low as 65% while others can sore to 90% depending on your weapons and stats.

Blood Mage, another one we all know. 5 Focus with strength and high health. Ranging from 80% to 90%+

For Cyber Hunter, Max Massacre OR Support! Max Massacre will be exactly what a Bounty Hunter would do, only with max massacre while tanking slightly in Defense and Resistance. Support builds for Cyber Hunters work very well. Malfunction, aux, gun, heal if needed, wait it out til u rage aux and you win ;). I've ranged from 80% to 90% with Support and 75% to 90% with Max Massacre (It wins faster)

Tactical Mercenaries. Tank hard especially in Resistance. Max reroute, level 4-6 heal with 5 focus. 95-109hp. You're decent! Easy access to wins here. I've ranged from about 80% to 95% (Wins the slowest)

Tech Mage. There's lots you can do with a Tech Mage, but from my experience, a Tech Mage with 140hp and at LEAST 100 energy with lvl 8-10 plasma and max Super Charge. You're extremely decent here! Carry an Energy Booster or two if you are afraid of becoming EMP'd, but usually it's barely a problem. Just make sure you have LOTS of tech and decent Dex ;) I've had wins from 80% to 90% Depending on how much energy you grab. or how much tech.

Finally, Mercenary. Not much I really know about it lately. But from what I've seen, people are using strength builds a lot and I think they can be better. I've found only one amazing build for them. Max Heal 5 Focus. This USE to require certain weapons and armor but now since Omega is here, things are different. Tank in mostly Dex and a bit in Tech. Hold 1 Energy Booster and 1 Health booster. These are life savers. Add no energy what-so-ever and grab 109hp. I've been 75% to 85% with this.

So don't get me wrong guys, there is a balance issue with some classes being able to win way faster than others, making it harder to go for titles sometimes, but not MUCH is really Overpowered or Underpowered. My only problem is the fact that Blood Mage has Deadly Aim AND Intimidate.

There's a build to beat an "overpowered" build, but that does not mean your build is overpowered, because there's a build that can beat yours too ;) We just have to discover it.

I HAVE NO IDEA HOW THESE BUILDS WILL BE EFFECTED DURING OMEGA! ;)

I can agree with this as well. People just want quick/easy wins with some and because they don't use builds that can exploit certain things, or their build can't beat a build that most of the time they are suppose to struggle against "This build is OP we need to nerf it"

Hopefully now with enhancements gone, and core that will be easy access to all the players (unlike enhancements that one class could get quick while the other it would take eons to afford) Balance will come back and all classes will have fun.

I don't see too much meaning in threads like this, especially some hours before Omega...since most likely most of the things will be different from what we know.
