beside of that, I think that marauder/sentiel should be fairly simple. or bounty hunter.

that is actually a pretty decent play time. Expect to spend 5.5-6.5 days PLAYED before you hit level 50. By then though, the games becomes a lot more fun- especially if you are a casual player like me who plays a few times a week. -Personally, I love my scoundrel and he does well in both pve and pvp. You do not have to listen to the extreme cries over the class in here. He does just fine- if you ever go to a warzone with a well geared scoundrel, I bet you he will be in the top 3 at the end of the match. Being fresh level 50 means the same for you; battling players with high gear or going for heavy armor is certain doom. If you like to play Dps or heal go scoundrel, if not then tank as Jedi Knight (unless you are a sentinel?)

Hey guys, Have any of my fellow scoundrels ever tried this build?.. Throw some dots- both heal and dmg, and just sit back and watch your team win? (if viable. never tried the build) http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#701MffMzhZhZhrbkrMh.1 Another version is this one: http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#701MffMzhZZhrbkrMhd.1 Gives you a little less dmg on vital shot, but gives you much energy and the ability to both heal and throw some woundingshots fromt he distance. Last one is this: http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#701Mc0MZhZhrbkrrhdhR.1 Off heal and use the rest of the DF tree to kill? http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#701McbMZoZhrbkrrhdhR.1 Anyone with experience, please reply and give your opinion. Also, I think none of them are viable for pve ofcourse, beside of the fact that you gain upper hand without going melee.

throw sabotagecharge, roll- hop over the barrier and give him a K.O punch! that feels too awesome!

Cboy-bebop! Anybody who knows this reference will know how awesome of a name that is:cool:

I must admit, that I cannot join your club. However, reading this thread is comforting. I am an artist and I work with technolog/art in practice and in theory. I do much reasearch and write papers on contemporary social behavior in computer games, and reading, that you guys are well payed academics who still play is comforting; right now, I can rarely play because of study and work. Just hit lvl 50. I like your tone, way of writing and sharing your experience. Knowing that it is possible for you to play and still have a profession is nice; I love playing, but the amount of time these games take today as well as the dialogue people often use on forums and online is what keeps me from playing more beside of time. I know that my dad at 60 play civilization everyday and get a kick out of it. Keep the spirit up, and let me know if any of you are at the Niman server! I think playing with you guys must be a nice experience. I to do it for destressing, relaxing and just chatting with friends while playing.. Starwars!

This makes sense!

he moves away from aoe range

I do not have time to level another toon to lvl 50 in this life. However, what I meant was, that I am always top 3 in pvp and finish every raid and fp dealing sustainable high dps (as far as I can compare to other classes and the numbers they give). However, I find it a bit harder to have high raid dps as scrapper in comparison to Dirty Fighting in boss fights. So I guess that the class is fine. I mean, there are dps/pvp classes below me when I play, that is for sure.

CHeck the guy posting on how to pvp with scoundrel in here, he has some good tips on how to avoid the gap etc. that pretty much explain what I feel would be a waste of time to write here due to the way communication on computergame forums has change into today.

You "feel" your doing bad?

Tell the tank to move away

I am however starting to think if you are right when you say, that those who master scoundrel would master other classes even more. I have no idea because it is the only char I have- but I think i do very well and above average. cannot talk about other classes though.

My only point by saying that is, that I think a lot of scoundrels dont use sabotagecharge ex. or both def. screen mechanisms, kick, stun and silence etc. You know what im talking about

Best comment on the scoundrel forum so far. Funny and true
