Everything I've read, Shadow Warriors are supposed to be the weakest ranged dps. Everything I've read, we are supposed to be in scout stance putting on debuffs on the enemy team because our dps is so weak.
The reality is, I rarely kill anything 1 on 1. Ranged DPS out dps SW's, so I have to get in close but by the time I do, I'm dead. Mellee out mellee me so I have to snare them and get away, but I can't do enough damage at all before my snare cooldowns are up, so I'm dead when the get to me.
BUT, in a group setting where I SW's can hide behind mellee on our team, pray for a few heals, the story is different. Here is a screenie of a Tor Anroc where the number 1 and number 2 dps'ers in the scenerio are two skirmish specced Shadow Warriors.
