I finished the inq and agent so I'll only give my opinion on those. I hated the agent story personally but I think it was a good story because it made me roll my first republic character after purely playing the empire. Won't get into it furthe because that would spoil the story for you, but playing the agent gives you some nice insight into what the empire does with capable non-sith imperials. I liked the inquisitor story but the character is a complete idiot and you can't prevent that.

Thank you all for your reactions. I decided to level an assassin on the empire side. I'll level whatever the equivalent of marauder is on the republic side and see which one i prefer after that.

So I'm trying to get into the game, The only endgame content I'll do is PvP. I know little about the classes in this game though so I thought I'd direct myself at the PvP community and ask for some advice. I'm looking for a DPS class(preferably melee) that has the ability to put a lot of pressure on the enemy team. Either through very high sustained damage or through CC/burst. Which class fits what I just described best? I don't care for FoTM, so even if a class is considered weak right now but still fits my description I'd like to know about it. Thanks in advance!
