There May Still Be Hope Yet

Look for yourself.. I asked the SK Dev whether or not we would see a coercer-style update.. this is what he said:

If only SKs had any issues outside of raiding.

The same could have been said of coercers pre-update.

No, Coercers were still broken in groups and soloing pre-update. Their reactives did shit all in groups, considering they were crowd control thus by dazing, stunning, and stifling mobs they negated their dps.

They were broken in neither. Crowd control, regen, and utility were the name of the game before this freak dev impetus to make everyone a high-dps class. Coercers arguably had the highest soloing potential in the game. The high potential for stuns negated the coercer dps but that was the tradeoff for protecting the group or charm mob while they did dps. Raid encounters discard a shitton of rules held by the rest of the game, and the coercer class got caught in the crossfire. That doesn't mean they sucked outside of raids.

I haven't asked him, but it may not be as clear as you think it is. What he could mean, is that he is bitching and moaning to the Dev that does work on classes and not that something is actually in the works.

correct

Like me bitching at the guy at the help desk at my job to get my fucking PC fixed, and he just breaks it more.
