Rage spec Jugg. Enrage, Leap, Smash usually instantly kills all 3 normal mobs. If 2 or 3 survive, Sweeping Slash kills them. If one survives, free Force Scream kills it. Whole process takes 5 sec. I tried, Lightning and Madness sorc, both are not as good as rage.

So I decided to roll a Trooper because I loved Republic Commando so much. Is there a spec or advanced class that best represents one of the characters from that game (Delta-38, Scorch, Sev, Fixer)? I thought Commando would be the logical choice, but they all use big guns, and doesn't Vanguard do a lot of melee combat? Sorry if this question has been asked before. Thanks

This was copied from my PayPal account. Total amount: -$16.04 USD Fee amount: $0.00 USD Net amount: -$16.04 USD Item amount: $16.04 USD Sales Tax: $0.00 USD Shipping: $0.00 USD Handling: $0.00 USD Quantity: 1 Sales Tax says 0. Whats up with that?

Sorry for bringing up an "old" issue. I just wasn't sure if there was a mix up on my bill or not. Leave it to "The Man" to try and squeeze out every last penny they can out of the common working man haha. Is this tax across all States in the USA? Or just a few?

Yeah I am in Pennsylvania USA. A $1 tax on a $15 virtual good seems a little steep tp me. Anyone else get their price jacked up like this?

So I just got a receipt from PayPal for TOR and it was $16.04 I thought it was usually $15.00 Am I crazy, or did I get over charged?

Acording to the chart I linked he does not have any favorite gifts. The three you mentioned (Imperial, Military, Weapon), are listed as Love, not favorite. In this chart/example I think "Favorite" give more points than "Love". So inless this chart is wrong, Malavai does not have any gifts that give him top tier affection points. Is this accurate?

So is there a good way to boost his affection since there are no gifts that are his favorite? I am going off of this site http://www.wikiswtor.com/Gift I usually like to boost all my companions affection to about 6k by spending 32K credits on lv1 and lv2 gifts. But it seems like it would cost a lot more to do this for Malavai.

I used Corso till I got her. Then I stripped him of all his gear and gave it to her (since they both use Aim and heavy armor). She has geat dps with the armor of a tank. I was even able to keep her healed through some H4 Elite bosses.

I thoroughly enjoyed leveling up my Scoundrel. What I did was start using Akkavi as soon as you get her. Since she uses Aim just like Corso, you can just swap the equipment. If you are doing mainly PVE then I can suggest a hybrid build (what I did). Level up the Scrapper tree to about HERE. Then you can get K.O. and see that it is not that great in a PVE setting, especially if you solo alot like I did. At that point I would respec to THIS. Ending with a final build looking like THIS. You are virtually un-killable with this build. With this build and using Akkavi I soloed quite a few H4's. Plus if you want to do group content you can que as healer and DPS and get into groups very quickly. The great thing about this build is you can put out good dps and you have Emergency Medpack which is a free, instant, spammable heal if you drop below 30% HP. Just something to think about. Also full Scrapper and full Sawbones are good as well

Looking at the new Skill Trees, I see that Force choke no longer gives shockwave and we only have a 15% crit boost instead of a 30% boost. Increasing all damage by 9% after smash is nice, but I think overall we lost out. Anyone try this out on the PST yet?

OK so a SSD would help load planets faster right? But I am not sure if it is lag or frame rate drop on the fleet. It gets very choppy like I am watching a slide show and it is almost impossible to ride my mount. That sounds like frame rate but I'm not sure.

I am thinking about building myself a new PC and there is just one thing I am concerned about for this game. Planet load times. Everything else seems to be ok, except trying to ride my mount on the fleet during peak hours I get massive lag. It seems to take a long time for most planets to load. Will anything I put in a new PC help this (SSD, RAM, ect...) or is this just a internet speed issue. I have Comcast and I get about 25Mbps download speed. Also it seems to take a long time to quit the game. Thanks

The first piece of gear you should get for him is a sniper rifle. As pointed out he can not use any of his L50 gear at a low lv. And there are a couple of skills he can not use without a weapon (assassinate for example). I got him for my lv1 Warrior (Jugg). I am lv 27 now and he is still better than I am. As everyone has stated, he just wrecks everything. Partly because once you give him a weapon he has access to all his skills at lv 1. I have all his skills turned on and he uses them on his own and have not had any problems yet, but I am playing a Jugg so that might be a factor. Also I would suggest getting cybertech so you can make all the modifiable droid gear yourself and all the amour and mods yourself.

I finished the Sith Inquisitor and Smuggler story. Both had good strong Act 1 and 3's. From what I hear around here no one seems to like Act 2 of any class. I am just starting a Sith Warrior now.
