Isn't zero too weak?

[||||||||||||||||]

until now I have lv50 of all classes so far feeling zero's the toughest to play... close-combat probably good but easy to die while your deception is off. sniping is just ok but i think we get more damage bonus while using gunzeker. So what's its strength or it's simply designed for really good players to chanllenge themselves?

I've been one-shotting mobs that were three levels higher than my Zer0(and five levels higher than my sniper rifle) at a time.

So is Zer0 weak? As a sniper he's weaker than Mordecai from BL1, but for BL2 standarts he's decent, not good, but decent. Errr...What I'm saying is that it's not that he's weak, it's that others are so much more powerful and easier to play with.

Isn't this indicating it's the hardest class to play.. I think 2k games should consider emphasizing his strength, at least giving him a highest dps or even one shot damage. now i believe gunzeker leads the dps, if we talk about one shot damage, zero overwins only a nail bit....

considering his high dying rate, looks this class has no strength...

so far i found gunzeker is the only op class in game... but i don't like it as it does nothing but shoot shoot shoot.. there is no fun playing with it... so boring..

I only play Siren, but I've seen people saying that the most powerful for general gameplay are:

1) Mechromancer (By far)
2) Siren
3) The rest


HOWEVER...
Gunzerker is the most powerful to farm bosses.... but only that.

I don't have a formed opinion regarding that.... but, I have to agree that Siren's phaselock is a pretty awesome attack. And that "blood soaked shields" from the Mechro is the most Op skill this game have.

well, siren's probably good.. but if you tried gunzeker... while you have two CC*7 and the bee, you need no attention to the game at all, no attention, you simply walk and press down two buttons on your mouse.. mechromancer is good with chaos, but it is while you're using CC*7 + Bee as well, then consider two CC*7....

The game is far from beeing balance when it comes to itemization. What makes a class overpowered is mainly because of weapons...

[Kelloggs]

CC + Bee is a gamebreaker combination...

We shouldn't use those as reference for balance.

ZerO is ok I guess, the sniper tree is great. Im not ruling the other ones out as garbage, they just seem alot less viable imo.
The Active skill was a huge letdown for me, definitely the most booring skill of all the classes.
To short duration. And the stupid "Decoy" makes it useless as an escape if you get caught in melee or cornerned, since it ensures everything is still attacking and shooting at your position/direction.
Thats also what seem to make melee builds unviable, attemping to use the very limited duration to run up for a melee strike will get you shot to pieces, since everything is shooting in your direction anyways...
It also really annoys me how ZerO has no talent boosting shield capabilites, or means to regen or regain health. Basicly leaving you with the reg mods which offer less than 0.5% reg.
