First off I want to make it clear that pyro isn't op in the sense that it can kill anyone on a 1v1. But, it isn't in par with other full DPS specs...that is all i need to say about that.
As far as the posts about rogues being op...1 word, DEBUFF. I rarely see someone use debuffs properly and its actually quite funny when they cry on the forums. Once we lose those buffs we are wheelchair status. Slip away and stealth isnt about just waiting to kill the lowest HP. It gives us a buff that is less than other's passive armor/sheild abilities.Lastly, I have yet to come across someone on the forums complaining about rogues that have played a rogue that I recognize...Meaning they aren't good and just trying to troll. Also paragon, inq, and dom should kill a sin if played half decently.
Healing isn't on par with DPS. You can take the Best dps and have them 1v1 mediocre healers and it will be a stale or take a very long time to kill. it should be the opposite and in no game have I ever seen heals top dps in almost every single match.
Looking at a larger perspective, pvp is slowly dying. In order to get more people involved with PVP I think we should go back to WOW vanilla style. As in, no pvp stats. Make the BEST raid gear exactly equiv to the best pvp gear. Even if a pve'er that just slayed the largest dragon in the game gets the best gear in the game, I highly doubt they will be able to dominate in pvp. This way people complaining about gear can only look at themselves...
Bring back an overall ranking system for all servers. For example top 50 are generals and can get general gear etc on a monthly or seasonal rotation. This will give an incentive to continue building up egos and gear instead of the log on before reset and knock out all the quests.
I think this game as potential to bring back the world pvp rifts too if this was put in effect. This will also meet Daglar's perception that we should all be forced to try different aspects of the game. Well if my pvp gear allowed me to pve, I would be more likely to try it when invited.
Lastly, this game will die out whether we like it or not if something doesn't change. There will always be the loyal ones but everyone else will move on. The first to go is usually the pvpers because we are impatient when it comes to fixing something simple.
