Play a VK/RB during beta by any chance?
BD is hardly a defensive soul, you're confusing it with riftstalker. It is an offensive soul built around toe-to-toe melee combat, ie being able to stand and fight, and subsequently becomes MORE dangerous when directly attacked. Notice the emphasis on MORE. As it stands they aren't dangerous enough when they aren't receiving melee attacks, and barely dangerous enough when they are. Assassin on the other hand is doing much more damage regardless of being targeted or not, and in the case of scoring a kill in 5 secs, too much damage while needing minimal skill on the players part.
So when BDs are playing to their strengths, but are doing lower damage than an Assassin that can kill faster and thus take less damage in toe-to-toe melee combat without even using an opener, you think this is how it should be?
Sorry, but I cant help thinking all of you people, who instead of presenting rational counter arguments (although some of you have) are instead resorting to insults are in the same league as all the bad warriors who rolled VK during beta because it was the only way they could own in PvP. There is nothing wrong with defending your favorite class/spec, but getting hysterical when someone suggests nerfing it makes it hard to take you seriously as skilled and intelligent players.
