Only way you can stop him is with another sniper, using diversion.

So I had this problem for a while and it is starting to get really annoying, since I can't play the game properly. It's kinda hard to describe it exactly without screenshots (I'll try to provide a few if needed). This mostly happens in operations, warzones and in the eternal championships. After I play the game for about 30 minutes the screen turns black or at least some part of it and it behaves like slideshow. Some parts of the screen may turn black and some may stay, for example sometimes the background is there, sometimes parts of the UI stay and others don't, sometimes the screen completely goes black. The game and the laptop doesn't crash though and I don't DC, I can still move around and attack, use abilities, but like I said the game becomes a very slow slideshow with parts of the screen missing. The only way to fix it so far is to ALT+F4 and restart the game. Whenever I do an ops run or try to finish the eternal championship it's bound to happen. A few days ago I couldn't finish a DP SM run, because this would happen on every boss at least once. Here are the important specs I have Lenovo Y510P with 120 GB SSD (game runs from this) Windows 8 64bit i7-4700MQ @2.4GHz processor 8 GB RAM 2 x GeForce GT 750M I know how to google, so I tried to read a lot about this problem actually and I tried a lot of proposed solutions, but none of them worked so far. Here are the things I tried: 1. Reinstalling video card drivers. Not installing GeForce experience, only drivers. Running GeForce experience in debug mode. Turning SLI off completely. 2. I read somewhere that I should turn off the grass completely as that somehow causes errors on this video card, but it didn't help. I also tried running the game on minimal settings. 3. It is not an overheating issue, I checked that. 4. There is no spike in processor or memory usage when the error happens, like I said the laptop doesn't crash and other programs continue to run like normal. 5. I tried running a command prompt in administrator mode and typing "sfc /scannow" and after it finished doing "Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth". Didn't help. 6. I disabled LPM (Link Power Management) in the Intel Rapid Storage Technology program as I read that it helped a lot of people. I really could use some help, I can play the single player content and the error doesn't seem to happen on planets while doing normal quests. But the moment I enter an ops, wz or flashpoint it will surely happen. Edit: There was a customer service forum a while ago but I can't find that now. In case I should post this somewhere else please tell me where.

To each his own. I do the same to people like you. Completely agreed. It's already been said, but I'll reiterate, because apparently some people have a hard time understanding this simple concept. If there is a pug run there is 2 options I can do: come with my fully geared BiS toons, or come with my alt (whom I want to gear up) who doesn't have good gear and/or I possibly can't play that well. Which one would you prefer? Hell, if I come on a fully geared toon for a pug run to help, then I can't roll on anything? Where is the logic in that? The ability to transfer armorings/mods/enhancements via legacy gear is what decides the op's question.

I see. But doesn't burst also have a travel time roughly the same as turbulence? Will this work if I don't have force speed up or does it only work with an instant burst?

So if I understand correctly potency/recklessness was always bugged a bit one way or another. I remember for example that there was a time when you could make it like you have 3 stacks of them. But that doesn't matter now. I heard it is still bugged in some cases and I saw some explanations but I still don't understand the nature of these bugs. Can someone explain to me what happens? For example in the opener there is this part: Turbulence -> Force Potency -> Telekinetic Gust -> Telekinetic Wave. Here we want to have the potency stacks used on gust and wave, but sometimes for some reason I seem to not have any more stacks before casting wave. I know that before a potential second attack (telekinetic or mental momentum) could eat one stack of potency, but I thought that is fixed now and doesn't happen. So what is really going on?

Note to self: next time make sarcasm more obvious.

Alrighty then. I fully support you now. I hope the next operations will be like this. In story mode all bosses should be clear able by using auto attacks only. I'm not sure about other current bosses though then, do you think they are killable with using auto attacks only? Cause if not I'm going to spam the devs with emails requesting for nerfs. Also I don't have much MMO experience, so I wonder if you can kill "story mode" bosses with auto attacks only in other MMos, like wow or wildstar for example. This seems to be the norm right now, so other more successful MMOs do it as well, amirite?

Unfortunately sorcs don't have a utility like that. His points are still BS tho, no argument here

Why didn't you uninstall the game already? They didn't nerf this now super easy fight in the last patch and they won't nerf it in the next patch either. Time to keep those promises. Edit: okay, here is a serious question. When I pugged this boss last time we killed it easily. But, we had one sentinel dps whose rotation was something like this: auto attack*10, occasionally a master strike, being interrupted halfway for a dispatch. Nothing else, seriously. Now obviously, if you have a group consisting of mostly people like this then you won't clear this boss. Do you think a player like this deserves the kill? Do you think someone who plays like this deserves to faceroll through an operation, even in story mode?

Obvious troll is obvious. You are lying. Still I give you a 2/10, because you made me reply. Also they didn't nerf it the last patch, so are you quitting already?

Thank you very much, it worked! It's bad though that on the achievment window they are called Mystics, while the mobs are called Stormseers.

So in the process of doing some tatooine achievments I came across this one. I can't find any . Can anyone help me where they can be found?

Which grenades do you recommend? Totally agreed. Balance, as a ranged dot spec needs some buff.

I played sage for our main progression on Revan and just got the first kill a week ago after countless hours of wiping. I experimented with both specs, I'll try to summarize my experiences. For floors 1-2 anything is okay, you can put decent numbers with both specs. For the core burn you need to go away from the core a lot, because we don't have a hold the line/hunker down like ability to save our asses from the pull/push, so you'll be doing short or semi short windows of dps on the core. This screams for lightning/telekinetics, which works really well here. On our kill I got carried a bit, I had only around 330k dmg, but on previous tries there were pulls where I was above 450k, so I'd say 500k may be possible as lightning (all this with 192 MH). The huge disadvantage for me on lightning was that you pretty much can't do anything while turning to the aberrations, so I always stopped dps completely thinking survival>squeezing in a bit more dps. With the recent nerfs (and with 204 MHs) this is fine, but I imagine this would be a big deal in previous versions of the game. Of course if you want to be high on dps you can try to squeeze in one GCD between the aberration explosions, but I'd rather not risk it. Now balance is a different story. It has its advantages over lightning: you can do DF/FiB while turning to aberrations, and your dots will also tick during this, which is a dps gain. Unfortunately it also has many disadvantages, which imo make it inferior to lightning for the core burn. Your dots will not only not damage the core while you are outside of its range, but they will be reflected to you and you'll receive some extra damage. Also, in my experience you can NOT put dots on the core while you are outside. The shield around the core seems to work differently, because you can definitely dot for example HK when his shield is up, or that revanite commander whose name i can't remember with the shield, Calphayus on the council fight etc. Of course lightning being superior for core doesn't mean that balance is not be viable, it is just quite hard to put decent numbers. It also depends a bit on luck, if you have many 12 o'clock (or near that) aberrations then you will be able to continuously dps during the explosions and have higher numbers. Everything what I said so far is with considering having a 192 MH. If you have a 204 or 198 MH, then everything is viable. Now about Cora+Ruugar HM, balance is definitely okay there. On the cora+bird phase it's even better because of the self heals and the ability to dotspread. For the other parts of the fight lightning is possibly better, but balance is still perfectly viable.

So, we are 9/10 currently on the new HMs and a quite small guild. We killed Cora about a month ago, now we are trying to do Revan. Only problem is we are forced to change people a lot and thus are not making any good progress. Currently we seem to have 7 very stable people and we are in need of an rdps. Our DPS composition right now is: sentinel, vanguard, sage. So a gunslinger or commando rdps would be perfect. What we ask: -please know your class well, be willing to spend a lot of time wiping on Revan, as it is the hardest fight in the game currently -gear is a non-issue, we can gear you up in one night basically -it would be nice if you had 9/10 or at least 8/10 progress on the new HMs as well, but if you know your class well then we will ignore this -raid times can be anywhere from 19:30 to 23:30 CET. we usually raid on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday and sometimes on Wednesday. If you want, you can watch some of our kill videos here: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheDuge100/videos No need to be a nice person or respectful to others, you can be a total dick for all we care, just know your class well and be willing to commit. That is all. If you are interested just search for Technicians in /who on TRE and whisper anyone you find online.
