Congrats on double necro post on a month and a half dead thread, there are several more that are more recent. As for quitting.... Human nature...it don't work...so you leave. Lets apply your ingame logic to real world problems. If you quit a job in real life....then you should never be hired for at least 15 years. BANG! Headshot. You have quit a job, all us humans have, then you are affecting the rest of the people you work with regardless of why you left for your personal gains (don't like boss, got better job). But, in your tiny world its not ok when you quit a team in a video game because it affects you and you deem it childish, petty, looking out for one's own interest. Yet, that same logic can be applied to leaving a place of work, its childish to walk off after getting yelled at by the boss to never come back, its petty when you are looking out for numero uno to make more cash for yourself (not much different then getting rewards and gear). You did sign a contract, you did chose to work at this place, BUT You did not chose who you are dropped in with and what map you might not like to play while both being a paying customer of Bioware. Whose preferense is on top? They guy whining about quitting because it affects his game play to win or the guy leaving because his game play is not affected by winning which can be affected by all kinds of RANDOM IS RANDOM = NO ORDER pugs because we are not part of the Borg Collective and we all do our own thing. tl;dr summary lol at hypocrites that get angry when someone quits, yet they are also known of participating in the same behavior (quitting job, quitting social engagement to someone they loved, ect) they so despise and demand suitable punishments. What a laugh riot. Humans are always F*** ups no matter how you look at it.

Techblades and Techstaffs are two different weapons, Qyzen can only use the blade while Akavii can use both (Blade suited for tanking cause it has higher endurance, staff is higher damage...but Qyzen starts with a blade that uses a staff graphic). The third weapon, Electrostaff, is for Nadia Grell (consular) pet I belive and it isn't usable by Qyzen or Akavii. BUT some Techstaffs are called Electrostaffs in their names except the skill is the wrong one, WTG Bioware for not fixing typos! Tech weapons are currently only available from Armstech while Electrostaffs are on vendors (don't recall if they are modable though). Really, just simplify it that strength = melee and aim = range, BANG! head shot to fixing the stupid issues with pet gear. No, I don't want cunning weapons (greens) with +defense or shield ratting, since it goes from 0 up 1% but 1% is still closer to zero and that means ZERO EFFECT (cause ranged DPS pets don't get a stance for defense, just 2 cool downs for short duration and two ranged stances which means 1% of crit/surge is way better). Its amazing that all of 1 archtype and 1 pet can use assault cannons, to bad half the assault cannons that drop use CUNNING while troopers/1st pet are aim based. All trooper pets are aim based, every other class has to deal with at least 3 if not 4 different mixes of gear to outfit pets. And droids...how many people actually equip and use them....yet their gear keeps clogging the rewards at mission turn ins.

lol at a guy raging about quitters 1. Ever break up with someone? 2. Ever stop smoking? 3. Ever quit a job and not come back? .....****?!?!?! What does that mean? Human nature. Don't think it will workout to get back together with your sweetie, even if she cheated on you. Don't think smoking is good for you anymore (regardless, you are a quitter even if its bad for your health) So you just left a job, cause your boss is an ***. What about the rest of the crew you are leaving, cause now THEY have to pick up the slack you left behind? Oh wait...its not a video game so F*CK REAL WORLD opinions cause real world isn't as important as a video game that seems to have more priorities to you, lets not forget you did sign a contract (which in that video game, YOU DON'T SIGN A CONTRACT AND NOT AGREEING TO ANYTHING cause random PUG is RANDOM). BTW, lets make it so you never get another job in real life while you all are on a soap box crusade. Back on topic: It won't work out, based on your own personal assement (don't like the WZ, don't like the odds, its DM mode for 7 people but you can't figure that out cause your the odd one out playing objective, pick an excuse). So, you just give up. You to, are guilty of quitting in real life cause we are all human, so you should just shut up and reassess *** you are banging your chest about for attention that somehow its ok to quit in real life but its not ok to quit in a video game. tl'dr: You all are hypocrites of doing the same thing you despise, doesn't need to be in a video game. Oh, and update cause you didn't sign up for the social page: Its comming. lol at uninformed impatient ragers raging about rage quiters that are just hypocrites anyway cause its not ok to quit in a game but its ok to quit on things in real life. ( You are guilty of quitting in life, don't deny it)

I will say it again lol at people raging about quitters 1. IF you have left a job 2. If you have left a BF/GF 3. If you have left a Husband/Wife 4. If you have left _____ Notice something ? If you quit a job, you should not be paid your last paycheck (yet you get it up until that point anyway). If you quit a BF/GF, why the hell should you go look for another one to replace them ? If you quit your on your significan't other, why the hell would you be allowed to remarry? I would all be for not giving you your last paycheck, you should have a social stigma from not finding a companion to fill that void ever again, and no way in hell should you be allowed to remarry....since a debuff needs to be put in for a video game then real life should be more harsh amirite ? Yeah, its human nature. Humans give up when it doesn't work out. Why is it different in a video game then any other situation in RL ? Why is it so important that you belive someone should be punished, when you both pay for the same thing, and someone just gives up? My belief, that if you are the one beliving your own hype and that your one word is correct...then perhaps you should rethink your priorities. To bad BW can't put in a surrender option, you walk out, and thats it. Its usually the loudmouth shouting that is the issue, because they don't relize that even if you have two guys with the same experience....it just may not work out but somehow its always the other guys fault amirite ?

No, snare needs a 2 minute duration. It never should of been nerfed, you know how hard it is to kite aviaks and treants in south karana ? /emote sound of a record scratch OH wait! wrong game!

I find CC in this game to be totally worthless (its all sleep save a few stuns, basicly you put a baddie out but when you wake him up he is really grouchy). It does take more skill, but god damn is it annoying that in different instances you have to turn off all the AoE affects on some pets which happen to be the massive taunts and it leaves the pet with 2 attacks. Then others, you get the CC applied and some random AoE launches nearby a second later breaking it or somethings run faster then you can CC them...putting one NPC in melee range of some dude/pet with AoE thats trying to burn down 3 other NPC. Or you put the pet on passive, CC one, try to break LOS, and get yanked into the pack with the stupid harpoon attack putting you in melee range thereby completely ruining your plan of attack. And immoblize attacks...what a freaking joke at 5 seconds but BREAKABLE 2 seconds later. *sigh* I got soft on CoH/V control, but you could feel like a god just shutting everything down that couldn't really fight back. Lets not forget that most CC are longe recharge, very short duration stuns. Really, you think 4 seconds is enough with 30-60 second recharge? Every class gets an interrupt ability that acts the same, shutting down the NPC on a 12 second recharge. Thats more reliable, but I hardly use the CC's at all because of the head aches they bring from massive amounts of micromanging (like you CC breaks by accident BUT it has that 60 second duration...since its limited to 1 and only 1 so would be awesome if it had faster recharge to reapply since you can't mez them ALL 1 at a time)

lol ragers at quitters Its human nature 1. You broke up with your GF/BF <-- Quitter 2. You divorced your significant other <-- Quitter 3. You gave up smoking <-- Quitter, regardless if good/bad for you 4. You quit a job <-- Quitter, even if you hate you boss what about the rest of the crew ? 5. You gave up a cat/dog, cause the new place doesn't allow animals <-- Quitter, its like family bro I can go on and on. To bad pro-teams are paid to get along and work together, but human nature is "**** dude! Stop giving me orders!" cause most of us don't like being told how to do something even if its the wrong way. But it just makes ragers whine when it affects their video game score (and just can't get over it) and they just get their way from the game developers...to bad they can't give better options or balance PvP (Expertise = crutch, you need better item to kill someone...you suck period...given equal gear and skills it should be damn equal with/without it...and low levels DO NOT act the part of a higher level..they lack skillpoints and stat modifers - dinged 16 - 17 on a sniper and suddenly it gains 150 points after training while in the WZ...which tells me its not the skill acting like its 49 but its acting like that skill at 49 so same class same attack 20 levels higher will still do more damage then a lower level with the same attack). Balance my ***...hell grant me the same rewards as the guy scoring a 2.5k medal for damage taken and I get it for taking the hit then I will just let myself get farmed. Chumpions, Wh*rriors, and Prattlemasters...FFS I hate stat jocks. Wish PvP gear broke every match to near uselessness and had insane repair costs...you should pay a premium to prance around in it.

Last boss of Essels "I love killing morons like you."

Does a coin have 2 sides? You won't notice the difference aside from 1 rifle, 2 guns, and a different story line. Though smuggler is awesomely funny from time to time.

Bring a friend. I know some people just want to solo the content, but if its not beatable and getting you down....bring more and beat the problem down. Once its over...its over!

Nadia is an assassin and gank tanks. As in, she is a high DPS character like an assassin and doesn't need a tank if she kills things fast. Just wish you could get her sooner, got the 4th pet on the Inquisitor which is dual saber melee and a little impressed though it is poorly geared. Not really looking forward to Xenith, don't really like ranged DPS pets so much except for Vette (whose DPS is high at the lower levels, but at higher levels require so much micro managing to keep alive)

Apparently he was a Trooper/Bounty Hunter type, then changed from range to melee while still leaving it Aim / End. Then to top it off, instead of doing the obvious and giving him Vibroblades they go and invent an entire new weapon line called Techblade then fail to add it fully to the item data base outside a few diddly quest rewards (thank god for that one intern that decided to add it to Armstech recipies ). Try the Inquistor, Khem Val is the opposite of Qyzen but Khemmy could easily kill that silly lizard and make him into a new loincloth. And Khem is Str/End, so +1 for him being more awesome then the walking leather belt.

Armstech and Armormech are less useful then Biochem. Unless Raktaka auto crits that augment slot, standard green armor when crafted doesn't always have augment slots. Plus, I can run 15 jobs with three companions and maybe only crit 2 if I am lucky... Then augments come from splicing, which in and of itself was nerfed into oblivion and with orange mod armor / GTN quick pick up of green/blue gear from NPC...not everyone needs player armor when another alternative is available much more easily. The lockboxes are not always worth the amount of credits put in, for 30+ minutes that companion is gone I can kill normal NPC and make more, so not only is the lockboxes not worth it for credits but the augments not worth it as well since so few need player armor / weapons (splicing as a whole needs a buff again...maybe revamp it to at least get Tech companion gifts ). Upsides for biochecm: At level 8 you can get a med pack that heals 3x the amount of the ones you can find, the stims you can make are twice the amount of +Stat and add power. Yeah, they are not reusable for the standard crafted ones....but they are just so easy to obtain they might as well be considered reusable. I would say Biochem followed by Cybertech are the most useful. Aside from +health and +stats, Cyber lets you fill 2 mod slots while it requires an Armstech / Artificier / Synthweaver to fill a barrel/hilt/enhancement slot plus fill in the ear slot. A good buff for Armstech and Armormech / Synthweaving is allowing it to make +mod pieces that are better then Cybertech, but only go into that item. Say Cybertech makes a +10 gunning mod +8 endurance green mod....same level Armstech would make a +12 cunning +9 endurance + 3 power green mod by "customizing" that mod made by Cybertech and that mod can only be put into a gun (reverse, a Cybertech can buff a barrel made by the armstech)

Bring a friend. I helped someone who was having a hard time with Zash, when I just finished mine and it was quite easy. Twice the DPS, the fast she melts and even if you have some prideful urge to just solo her...bringing someone else gets the nuisance out of the way faster then worrying about it.

Describe the stealth? Could be video cards, I get wierd invisible players when I load up on the fleet stations. See just the names floating, no character but I can tell where they are by the name + pet standing next to it. Usually thought it was some wierd AFK / logging thing with someone else...then I saw one name moving and another zip by at speeder pace. If its just a floating name you see, its probably a graphic glitch. If something else *shrug*
