Empire seems to be in a sad state on Satele Shan too, feels like Pubs have more aces, more premades, and when people server swap to us they tend to be Pub. Best games we get are when aces server swap and play Impside, or when we just don't go up against a bunch of aces with our five zero kill teammates Interesting it happens on SF too, you'd think Empire would be more popular (due to edginess) but maybe when it comes to GSF people gravitate towards Pubside to get that pseudo x wing fantasy? IDK

Madness Sorc / Balance Sage or Sniper/Gunslinger Snipers can stay stationary a lot, but I'm not sure how easy the rotation is. Sorc rotation is very easy (you apply 3 DOT and spam force lightning, other than that it's just force leech death field lightning strike and recklessness/polarity shift.)

Currently I've got 220 Mainhand from GTN, a bunch of 216 comms Force-Lord gear (only 2 set pieces so far out of like 12 ops...what can ya do...) Relics and augments all 186 (working on it) So I'm wondering if it's worth spending Ultimate Comms on earpiece/implants and then augmenting those, (since they dont apply to set bonus and that way my augments are on slots im less likely to replace) or if I should hold off on that and aim for operation versions (stat difference?) also does anyone have a sort of list of what to put where, to make it easier to organize my stat priorities? for example accuracy on helm/chest/gloves/belt/legs, critical on boots/etc etc at 65 with all class buffs, and advanced anodyne versatile stim, my stats are: 5898 mastery 5790 endurance 616 critical (32%~) 152 alacrity 760 accuracy

i played last night, no patch. clicked launcher today, no patch, but noticed new login screen. got the error: "this patch has encountered an unspecified error. please try this patch again." there WAS no patch, i logged in as normal and waited for PLAY to be clickable. (which never happened.) i tried to do a repair but that's not clickable either and tells me repair is usable after a patch that has failed or if errors were encountered. anyone have any idea what i should do?

I just transferred from Begeren Colony on my Sorc because I wanted to have a more active server with regards to running weekly monolith fights for 204 mainhand, classic operations for elite comms, hardmode flashpoint progression, etc. I'm a humble house sitter/dog babysitter so I have a ton of free time and a very flexible schedule that makes me able to commit to serious progression groups/active guilds I'm 26, on the west coast, with access to TS and anything else for communicating. I'm laid back, mature (but fun) and have a good attitude when it comes to learning content. I am not into drama or ragers so if your shotcaller is the type of person to call his team idiots when they wipe or make a mistake, we won't work out too well. IGN: Nixathen let's run some flashpoints, shoot the ****, and see if we get along!

this is by far the easiest way to set up keybinds. Barely have to move my hands off WASD. (ignore ugly gear and level, i use this same setup on all my toons, i was leveling w/ my brother when i screenshotted) http://i.imgur.com/5z49Z6k.jpg

I'm currently using this one: https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRVY0tZq9Asu4sPzjjjNbaYkbqnLeKVXhmcnj8g8ZCSGCjSf-aGKw My dream crystal is this one though: http://tor-fashion.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/WhiteBlack_thumb.png

he's gonna be available much like treek and hk are now. no doubt about it. imagine how much money they'll make from people like you and me who came back to the game after the deadline who will have to buy cartel coins to unlock him

My Lightning Sorc is in mostly 190/192 gear and the DPS is pretty solid. I think Merc is probably better single-target (even Arsenal) based on my Merc with the same gear rating, but Sorc has significantly better AOE (imo) and a lot of group utility that makes them valuable in any team. I'd personally rather be on the low end of the DPS members and have the option to bubble allies, extricate someone who didn't move off a falling platform fast enough, self-heal random raid damage so I don't put as much pressure on healers, etc. than be 1st in dps but offer nothing else.

Currently sitting on some 190 rating from Ziost, with the rest (including mainhand) at 178. I could buy 190 for everything from Ziost vendor, and then buy a 186 hilt from GTN. I don't even have relics yet, or anything augmented (just started leveling Sorc last week lol) Should I worry about getting all 190+ in anticipation for expansion or should I just go play something else till October? I play on Begeren Colony which is pretty dead for the rewarding PVE content (ops) so I can pretty much max out my Elite Comms and then wait, i guess :/

Previous main was Jugg, then Merc, now I'm leveling my Sorc (at 57 at the moment) and really enjoying the DPS Lightning spec. I've been using Dulfy's guide to get a feel for the rotation, but it's from 3.0 so I'm not sure what has changed. Haven't played since SOR launch either. Can I get some info/links to up-to-date info?

3 years ago I went to a big computer store in San Jose with my gf, bought a desktop and SWTOR, then went home and had to find a desk on craigslist to set everything up, and then finally I made my Guardian. I'm on a different server now and that toon is long gone. RIP Asvaldr Farlight

Rage just feels way too clunky. Too many new skills, i never feel like i have enough resource, and the animations are weird. OH, and i miss vengeful slam. If it comes to light that Rage completely outclasses vengeance DPS wise by a pretty substantial amount I'll figure out my hotbar and rotation but till then, Vengeance for me.

there shouldn't be any form of expertise imo. it doesnt make much sense to me for someone to have a huge % based advantage agianst someone who doesn't have the same gear (which probably implies that they're not as experienced anyway in which case skill should win out. and if they're on an alt, and their skill level is the same, they shouldn't have that huge disadvantage due to gear.) im not saying bolster is bad, in fact i think everything should be standardized as much as possible so that skill and knowledge etc is the most important thing. but this means while its okay to boost someone's endurance or damage to be equal (or near equal at least) i dont think people who have played more should get whopping bonuses on top of most likely being better at pvp. /2cents

I am not able to leap to snipers as a vengeance jugg, (force charge specifically is the move) so idk why some other people would be able to. its most likely obliterate, which is a gap closer as well but doesnt count in the same way force charge does.
