This the reason I quit rift. They didn't introduce transfers quick enough so I quit since I didn't want to pay them money for another 1-2 months playing on a half deserted server. If they had been swifter with this they'd probably at least gotten 6 more months out of me since I liked the game. Might even still been playing it. Learned my lesson from that and I'm on one of the most populated eu server. Sure the hours of queues at the start sucked at times but it was easily worth it for a healthy server down the line. You'd think companies would learn and be alot faster with introducing server transfers/mergers since pretty much every new mmo have this issue. Bioware is probably losing alot of customers at the moment because of this. Like trion lost me in rift.

They could always have 16-man drop 5 rakata and 8-man drop 2 rakata per boss. That'd mean slightly more loot per person in 16-man giving you some incentive to run it. Of course with the current drop rates you get close to full rakata in a few runs anyway.

This is pretty hysterical, thanks for the laugh. I especially like the part where you stand still letting the operative hit you for 6 seconds.

My main issue with this is that we will be even more useless on that *********** huttball map. It's such a ridiculous map. Atleast with our high burst we were somewhat useful killing healers and ball carriers between being knocked down all the time. Now we won't have even that and be BY FAR the most useless class on huttball. Not very fun considering it's played at least 60% of the time on my server for empire. They could've at least given us some increase utility in exchange for nerfing our damage. Oh well, guess I'll just reroll a sorcerer and spam lightning+knockback all day.

These skills may be fine if all classes had similar utility. The problem is some classes do not. There is zero reason you'd ever want a marauder or operative on your team in huttball. Those classes are simply awful on this map as they provide very little utility compared to other classes. When the ideal team on a map would include atleast 50% sorcerers something is wrong..

It's hard to say how viable they are without damage meters. They gonna have to do more damage than pretty much all other dps classes to be really viable though as they provide the least utility while also being melee. Not to mention they got no charge or force speed to help changing between targets faster. Another problem is that certain bosses are a pain to backstab at times since the games detection about weather you are behind a enemy or not is retarded/broken. Often you have to go to the side/in front of the boss to get backstab off. Basically if pve is your main concern operative probably a bad choice unless you want to be a healer.

And thats pretty sick. If you watch this video you will notice the 10k hit was on a lvl28 sage. Not really comparable to a lvl50 pvp geared player is it?

Gunslinger doing something similar: and if you check at end he only had 5% expertise so probably not even close to as geared as this operative. Fact is you could make similar video for all the classes and all it proves is all this buff stacking needs to get fixed. Fix that then we'll see how it plays out in 50s warzones where people aren't preying on mostly greys.

Yes but where do you learn to make it? I got 400 biochem and the trainer does not teach you this recipe. Is it a drop from somewhere or does it come from missions?

Anyone know where you get these? For example the recipe for this: http://www.torhead.com/schematic/ayKJt3M

Fixing this need to be a top priority. It gets quite ridiculous at times. Might as well take backstab off my ability bar because even if I stun a enemy and stand behind him I still can't use it half the time. Lag issues in pvp pretty much kills the fun.

Who cares if you dont get mvp if you have most damage. You probably dont deserve it anyway. Now not getting mvp votes when you score 3 times in a 3-2 huttball win with minimal support now that's freaking annoying...
