Enough is enough... Nerf the Heavy!!!
Many of you are aware that I have been a devout follower of the cult of Heavy since the onset of this game. I have proselytized from on high (and low) the virtues of the Heavy as being the best class in this game... I finally have have come to the point where I can no longer live with myself and the terrible guilt for what I have done in promoting the Heavy playstyle...
I call on the DEVS and anyone else who is listening to heed my call to action... The Heavy MUST be NERFED!!! I know, many of you are shocked... I can hear it now "what has t3bar0n been smoking in that pipe" (legal in California thank you), and "Has The Emperor fried his brain with too much force lightning!?" I am here to tell you my brothers and sisters, that nothing could be further from the truth! The Heavy is truly a POISON to this game and a CRUTCH used only by those who even lack the skill to be successful as an Officer!
I now present to you irrefutable evidence that the Heavy is overpowered...
1. The Heavy is overpowered.
B. The Heavy has more health than any other basic class, which is unfair and is a crutch only needed by terrible players.
C. I have killed LITERALLY hundreds of heroes/villains with the Heavy... in no way can this be balanced.
4. The Heavy has WAY too many weapons at its disposal to be in any way fair... they have amazing blasters, they can kill vehicles actively OR passively, and then can even engage AIRCRAFT! No other class is this versatile with NO drawbacks!
6. The health pool of the Heavy can heal to full with NO effort needed... this facilitates camping with the Heavy for the entire match as good players will not die.
Seven. The SHIELD... need I say more!? The shield functionally makes the Heavy have more health than any Enforcer and this is appalling! Not only that, but you can move while the shield is deployed... Who in their right mind thought this would be OK?
8. The Heavy can LITERALLY kill an entire respawn without reloading, this is just unfair!
9. Spider Walking... the Heavy can walk up walls using his Sentry ability, this is a GAMEBREAKING which has been IGNORED!
10. Too many people play Heavy.
Below I have attached a video showing just how atrociously OP the Heavy is...

Ok, so now I have some solutions to these problems which will bring the Heavy in line with the rest of the classes that don't need crutches to do well...
A. The OP'ness of the Heavy should be reduced to bring him in line with actual skilled classes (like Officers).
1. Reduce the health of the Heavy to 100, they have a 300 point shield, so they shouldn't need 200 health!
2. If a Heavy starts to damage a Hero/Villain, Immediately begin a diminishing return damage reduction modifier on the Heavy which stacks every time they damage a Hero/Villain until reaching 0 damage dealt (to protect heroes). There is no WAY it is fair that a Heavy can kill multiple heroes.
D. The Heavy weapons MUST be limited to only being able to target a single type of vehicle... the Heavy should have to choose if his blaster will damage turrets, ground vehicles, or aircraft... being able to hit all 3 is just OP.
4. Being able to heal with NO effort is completely unfair considering the Heavy's already large health pool and shield. Implement a cap on healing to 50 damage AT MOST!
5. The shield is probably the most OP ability the Heavy has and it functionally makes him stronger than any Enforcer. To fix this, the Heavy should be completely stationary with the shield deployed, and the shield should only provide 150 damage reduction AT MOST!
Six. It is really unfair that a Heavy can wipe an entire squad respawn... as such, the Heavy weapons should induce a 30% weapon heat penalty for every kill without reloading... this will prevent a Heavy wiping an entire respawn while still being balanced!
7. Cap the number of Heavy players in a match at 2 per side... anything more than this completely breaks immersion. Look at a storm trooper battalion... how many Heavy troops do you see!? That's right, not many. Besides, if a lot of players are using something, it is by definition OP and at least needs to be looked at...
With these common sense changes, I firmly believe that the Heavy will be much more balanced and enjoyable to play and will not be spammed constantly in every match I am in.
In summary, the Heavy is OP (this is well known by the majority of players... in fact over 93.7% of players have found the Heavy to be completely gamebreaking). My solutions are common sense and will significantly improve balance within the game... if you can't see this, then you are probably just upset that I am finally showing the world how big a CRUTCH you are using to unfairly exploit your way to victory!

I really wanna touch this but i think your out of your mind to be honest.
No he's being sarcastic
The latter doesn't hide behind his shield or throws a panic nade when he is about to lose a firefight. He is always ready to engage walkers or planes with ion shots, if need be, or crack open choke points with barrage. Oorah.

It was said that you would destroy the Assaults not join them, bring balance to the Battlefront, not leave it coated with snipers

OUT AM I?!
I live again
I am ROMG4 or is ROMG4 me? If I am ROMG4 who am I? If ROMG4 is me who is he what is he? If I am him who or what am I?
If this is conscious does that mean I know I am ROMG4 or not, is ROMG4 me? or Is it not
Gone forgotten, out of board and into the pan of ghost fire and diatrabe of sadness no one AVENGED ME how could this be. 2 years I exist I help, I talk, I contribute, I speak, no one helped me no aide, no one all alone in the dark of the night where dark things lurk in the more of subconscious thought and that which lurks bellow and beyond the veil of madness and the unknown

Nice post! You should do more of this.
it's been a while since I say that TL50 and Epic Shield is OP
Play some games without the TL50 / DC15 explosive shot and epic shield and you will see that you will not be that OP. For me, the heavy has 200 HP but his weapons are less painful than most other classes, and it takes a little longer than the others to regenerate, you will put a little more time to kill your opponent, but you will have your equipment to delay or weaken your enemies. Heavy is made for camping, holding positions, doing suppression fire to advance your allies. but TL50 / epic shield are so powerful that it removes one of the only disadvantage to play a heavy, and that's why this is spam in game
I hope you get better soon and leave that Mxcn bud alone - get some fresh air...
Great troll post to start the day!!!!!!

200 hp is a crutch for dead cat level reflexes and potato tier twitch skills
shield you can fire behind is a crutch for bad positioning
lockon anti vehicle missiles are a crutch for bad aim
spray happy lazer LMGs are for no-skill noobs who can't use a more sophisticated marksman's weapon
sentry is like a turbo cancer version of the above
explodey sentries are like the regular but also with super aids
impact is 1 free kill per cooldown unless you're so bad you may as well be AFK
triple grenade noobtube is for deku scrubs who can't even aim a single grenade properly
he runs the same speed as everyone else even tho he's carrying all that ish and should move at sentry speed
girl heavy from FO faction triggers me because I died to a wamen
nerf it all pls DICE
Heavy is tanky and it’s designed to protect places or to take ones with sentry while assault go in forefront.
Heavy guns have a long cooldown so you have to choose wisely when you have to activate it, otherwise you are dead.
Your video just show multiple cuts of a couple of seconds killing people, not entire gameplay. I can do the same with all classes to show they are OP. Just show us a combo of 10 kills in a row and then maybe I can think it over.
Bored as well
Changes need to come for all classes
Ps love Star wars
Haha hahah!

The Assault is the least used trooper in the games I play
The two main I see is officers and specialist
There is a problem indeed
Buff the Heavy and Assault and bring balance back to the force
Or at least the troopers

So... You bored me because I and others wants nerf the wookiees that are truly monsters, and then you post a thread like this? Looool 😂
Nerf the nerfs.
Is that the “Troglodyte” Rey skin? Looks like a cave woman

Then again, you probalby won't read this, so yeah.

If you read all nerf threads as though they were satire, these forums are a lot more entertaining.
This one definitely is lol. 10/10 entertaining post

If we nerfed everything that people wanted nerfed we'd be left with harsh language only.
Already nerfed, no in game comms
