    see two up..
  • Occupation
    I'm a stealth ninja..and a care worker.
  1. I'm interested too, don't mind which side.
  2. I was a dual spec fanboy for the longest time with a preference on Madness. After the update I went Madness and found it about as good as it used to be roughly. Then I tried lightening and it has blown me away. If you know your rotation and play smart almost everything in the rotation is instant cast on the move. I'm in love.
  3. I'd suggest you look at your rotation a bit more, because you should be doing so much damage as lightening nothing can live long enough to really hurt you, or you comp should be getting beat up instead. I use Xalek in tank stance though I always start the fight with a bubble and my healing dot.
  4. Certain droid pets could perhaps sell your trash items so you comp didn't have to leave your side.
  5. As others have said, even if the Dev's did give Sorc/sages an energy free 30m ranged attack, it would really only be used by level 1-10 characters, after which point using this kind of move in a rotation would be wasteful. It isn't like with Smugglers who have such high damage/cost moves they occasionally need to throw a free shot into their rotation whilst levelling (Until they get cooldowns and what not). We get 500/600 force to play around with at the start of every fight and the force management for every major rotation is childs play. With 3.0 coming up we are not going to see any brand new moves or major changes coming to us any time soon in terms of melee skills. However, what the devs could do is replace one of force based attacks with a melee skill, but this would be cosmetic only. So you take a power like force slow or our 10m stun, keep it the same in terms of its power etc but the animation would use the sage/sorce lightsaber, maybe have it flash out in a right arc around the player. This is something they could do without adding to balance issues.
  6. She is very useful and easy to keep geared...but as a character she is utterly boring. If I could swap her personality with that of the smuggler healer sages get I'd be very happy.
  7. I think, with the exception of boss fights you can get away with another full dps companion because you can still heal and shield you and your comp and with the combined dps very little will be left standing long enough to kill you. I used Nadia, who is dps but I have her geared as a tank and I always send her in first to big groups.
  8. I was almost full madness pre 2.0, but with the changes to some of the procs in the lightening tree, and the possible burst they can provide, combined with the damage increase for shock etc, I'm not mostly lightening with wrath and death field from madness. (30./16 I think the build is) It is working out a treat.
  9. Alacrity I think isn't as useful as most people seem to think in 2.0. The build I run makes all the charge abilities of the lightening tree instant, combined with the instants we already have from taking death field. Sure, you get some regen from alacrity but really if you are managing your buffs properly you should never run out of force even if you constantly spam every available power.
  10. The burst dps possible with this build is pretty fun. People don't expect it in PvP, when it works. Still I believe it is better than pure Madness.
  11. Griefers are looking for attention and big reactions of outrage. Don't give them either and they will just get bored and go away. Trust me, I used to roleplay in SWG in the Bria server.
  12. Boneface. He is a sith student who killed all competitors to become my student. It is only a matter of time before he comes for me in my sleep!
  13. It was fun the first time, neat even to know you had my back in the security of my account situation. Now, it seems like every time I log in I'm rolling the dice on having to wait for a password to be sent to my hotmail account. Is this working as intended, and if it is can I opt out please?
  14. Being a healer is twice as hard as being a dps, so they should be able to out heal any single dpser. We not only have to heal our whole team, but also ourselves and we are target number 1 in PvP.
