I will run halfway across a map, past an enemy hutball carrier on the goal line, past a ninja capping op, past a mound of gold coins, just to push a sniper out of cover.

I'm using 19/22 as well. After making the switch, I don't think I could tank without Commanding Awe (not sure of the Jugg mirror) again. I'd love to have that extra stun, but the incredibly short CD on Enraged Defense means I pretty much always have a defense CD when I need one. (Guardian version) Saber ward -> Focused Defense -> Warding Call -> Focused Defense Warding Call and Saber Ward are nice, but their cooldowns are just too long. As someone else mentioned, the constant 4% damage reduction is hella nice too.

I joined the website Oct 2008. The game let me down tremendously and I quit for more than half a year a few months after launch, but I'm back for now. I still want TOR to succeed.

I've been dueling a bit lately with my friend. I'm a guardian tank in full tank gear; my friend has an assassin and a trooper, both geared comparatively in PvP gear. If I'm on top of my game, I own the assassin - probably because I mitigate all of his saber attacks. However his trooper destroys me. The duels last awhile but his sustained DPS (tech damage) ends up shredding me eventually. This made me start thinking about my tank spec and my counters and who I counter. I'll be fine against any white damage ACs (or specs), but will get owned by any force/tech damage spec. What are some other hard counters for 1v1s? Are there any classes that are "safe?"

This is so terrible, BW.

Can't get in, quite lame.

I'll be there tonight for the Republic.

Girlfriend agro may be lifted by Saturday night. If so, I'll be there. Are week days not an option due to raids and work? Weekends are normally pretty full for me and my friends.

This game has enough no-resolve roots.

As a tank, I take particular interest in this. Do you suggest rolling with 25k hp and 1350+ expertise, or 27k and ~1200-1250 EXP? Enure/Endure + Medpac makes the extra health rather meaningful IMO.

Played on Bria from 04-08. Had some good times with RGE, McO-E, FTW, FOE, WRATH, DN, ID, etc. That was a good community with both sides having some great guilds. Base swapping and fight clubbing was lame, but when we had legit PvP it was good.

I would be okay with a short lockout after one leaves during a WZ, but you should be allowed to leave before a WZ starts. There are days when I just really don't want to play Huttball, or VS, or whatever.

Lols were had.

Very nice, looked like fun. Hopefully I'll be around the next time WPvP happens. Is that Gladiator music? Dig dig dig.

In the week that I've been back in the game at 50, I've won a large majority of my morning WZs and lose a smaller majority of WZs at night. Mostly because premades run at night and randoms suck. Maybe the morning PvPers are stay-at-home dads who are juggling a baby with one arm, I dunno.
