This is something i have been noticing with the lower levels of the game. I have a number if alts in the 20-30 level area, which i really dont care much about as they were fillers in a faction at one point, or just alts for the heck of trying a different class. I have a merc, level 26 now, that a lot of people would complain to me about. It's pretty simple, high tech, high heal, low plasma ( it does 470 damage), and level 1 supercharge. I also have level 7 battery, and level 8 assimilation, with high HP (800) Basically, it works the exact same as my old merc: deal decent damage with a low cast spell, tank for a few turns, ( i have my assim, heal, then armor core) and then i can use supercharge to deal big damage, and then usually i have rage and aux, but if i dont then i can use battery and i tend to have enough to rage my plasma bolt... Now after a single night of playing on this char again, countless number of times i was told by (i wont say inexperienced players, but ones that obviously have never played in the higher level tiers) that i wasnt following what my class was meant to do, which is overload and multi.. i wasnt able to convince most of these people that i am using a different techniqe and that all classes have the sole purpose of earning kills, everything else is just the tactic you use to get there. Now i am confused by where on earth did we give these people the idea that there is only one way to build a class? i want to discuss how this has happened and what we can do to change it, casue the fact that majority of the next gen players being mentally confined into these certain builds per class is rather scary... it would be worse than every using an OP build cause it wins... they would use it because they think they have no other choice... any thoughts? has anyone else had this or a similar experience?
