Level 20...hardly a problem that requires every devs attention.

do not look at anything in this thread as viable anymore, the stat priorities changed when they released 1.2 in april 2012 and again with 2.0 this yr. this thread is from january 2012 lol

The outrage is hilarious... this op was cleared in HM with 72's and 75's... the fact you can buy 78's isn't really a huge issue especially when set bonus 72's are still more valuable that the minor stat increase. The only good thing to come from the gear are the BiS mod. Also where was the outrage when we jumped from 61-63 alllll the way to 69-72?

Bring the recruit set back, remove bolster... and remove pvp forums from this site so the same topic isn't spammed for 3 months straight every 2 hours...pvp fixed.

I whole heartedly welcome bolster to PVE. Would fix the problems with random *** pugs in 55 ops who like to use greens instead of taking some initiative and getting any gear... BTW, this is ike thread #290438209 of someone trying to compare bolster pvp to pve... stop it, you're not original.

ok, executes removed... now what? Dirty fighting spec doesn't work anymore Combat sentinel doesn't work anymore infiltration shadow does half the damage Guardian vigilance doesn't work anymore So you've now limited all sent/guardians to smashing, all shadows to tanking and all slingers to roll exploiting sabo Good play Mr remove synergistic abilities. It's just the attitude bioware is looking for, nerf it until it's balanced rather than buffing other stuff...

probably because it's really random giving a combat medic defense rating?

Sentinel dps > guardian > shadow- imo Shadow if you want to be sneaky and get stuck guarding nodes, Sentinel if you want a to top dps charts, guardian if you want to tank. I've got all 3 @ 55 and geared but i mainly play the sentinel as there is always a spot in premades for one(smash unfortunately...).

Love the whining. Get over yourself Mr. Pro PvPer who ONLY does PvP because he's too awesome to do any PvE... This is only the 400th post about this topic since release and its a petty attempt at trying to prove a point.

Love the troll rage. L2 avoid sents

Unfortunately, i think this is a network connection issue. What does your average ping run at? Is this also while testing at a dummy or in an actual raid? If a dummy, the fleet one is never a good one to test against.

General rule is, use it on snipers/slingers, mercenaries/commando's and sentinel/marauders(Juggs too). Don't bother using it on sages/sorcs as they are all force.

2 tanks 4 heals 10 dps Once you gain more practice, you can easily do it with 3 heals and 11 dps to make things faster. Fights are exactly the same, and there is more leniency to dps at there will be 10-11 of you instead of 8. I would say 16 is actually easier than 8 man as it is MUCH MUCH more forgiving if you mess up or someone dies. We tend to pug almost 5-6 people so coordination isn't much of an issue, keep a tight watch on the wealthy buyer fight and kill the cartel warlords in this order: Horic, Sunder, Vilus Garr, Tuchuk (Horic has a bad aoe spam do kill him first)

There are some items that will bolster higher than conqueror and not everybody has access to them. This is a similar problem to the old flash frozen ice trick. It's a bug that some are abusing to gain small advantages over others. BUT, ranked games are so tight right now that small advantages make the difference whether they are legal or illegal. It all comes down to whether the community believes it's working as intended or not.

What i don't understand and i don't care to read the last 200 pages is why can't people find guilds where they CAN join premades? If it's the same old excuse that, "I like to play solo" or "My friends aren't on all the time" or "I've got commitments", it's all bull. If you like to play solo, go play force unleashed, If your friends aren't on all the time, make new ones. And finally, if you have too many commitments, please go to them rather than playing this game and typing these ridiculous posts about people outclassing you. MMO's are survival of the fittest, even the cavemen realized they needed to roam in hunting packs to take down their prey. Can't adapt? Well, see you in the history books.
