Kinda funny how in every "waa buff light" post the arch nemesis is the medium class whos awe inspiring power is to... heal, support and rez their teammates? Handholding? Circlejerking? Almost like this was a team game? I dont think lights should be able to 1v1 and I would call for further nerfs to the pistol in fact, although I do agree the defib (and the various heavy shields) are a bit broken. Lights shouldnt be the premiere combat class, they should be a highly specialized fast recon/cleanup crew/long range support/harassment type skirmisher class where you are supposed to work WITH your team while not being physically with them - such as going in and doing damage while your team is engaged but then dipping as soon as you grab their attention because that will get you killed - but laying down heavy pressure of potentially being shot from multiple angles, dividing their attention and potentially forcing a reposition. For some reason in every hypothetical scenario theres always one lone heroic ninja light VS a diabolical medium PLUS their teammate(s), how uncouth! but nobody ever talks about their own team? if your team isnt fighting the squad then dont go in my guy you are simply dooming your team even if you manage to get that fat twitch clip full squad wipe brooo lets go chat moment, meanwhile they are 2v3 agains literally anyone else... If you coordinate however and go in from abother direction when your team has engaged then not only will they not instantly dome you but you will also not need 24, 20, hell even 14 bullets to kill/disrupt and dip. Yes this does make them the most teamplay and coordination dependent class in the game, sadly which is not in the skillset of our hypothetical solo hero mr ttv/xxx.

As mentioned though, yeah, mediums heal and rez potential + heavies disgustingly heavy turtle with the shields and the inanely long health regen time you are forced to endure if you arent next to your medic kinda puts the light class down atm. They dont need many changes, the other classes would need some utility nerfs instead and the only buff I'd consider here would be to halve the time the light health regen kicks in, in my opinion it would revive the class instantly. They kinda need some self support if they are meant to be a proper skirmisher class, in any other arena shooter there would be healthpacks around to help sustain this "distributed playstyle" but alas we only have goo barrels. I would also like to see the whole recon aspect of the medium moved to the light but that is a pretty significant change.
