can't believe they don't have 24h monitoring with oncall.

by this you mean the Theortika and/or the Lord of Agony part? The components from the flashpoints are available in story mode, which is extremly easy with a companion. soloed this last week on a marauder. i think the most time consuming part was the search on taris.

Happened to me too on 2 warrior characters. Yesterdays patch was supposed to fix it, but for me it didn't, I still don't have Inflection Point in my mission list. Updated the ticket which i opened a few days ago. I'm curious how long this will take.

each character has to do the recruitment conversation after finishing chapter 9. or you can use the item you received immediately.

me three

i find it quite ok after 9-10 in the evening. 3 wins, 3 losses of which 2 i was backfill fot huttball at 5-0. sometimes backfill to a horrible team, but sometimes the otherside gets a bad team and we capped all 3 in NC. so i couldn't say it's unplayable.

it is extremely important to whitebar the ball carrier close to your goal lline, so he cannot be pushed back, thus enabling him to swiftly score, shorting the warzone by quite a bit.

yes, you could, although it's a waste of UCs. better do some quick sm ops where you get the 236 "for free".

you don't need to keep 230 shells, they are not "legendary". after takeing out the armorings etc. you can safely sell them. you can take some shortcuts here: buy or craft 246 mods, enhancements, hilt/barrel. even gemini mk-4 earpieces and impants. This should be sufficient to be able to do some hm ops to get 242 gear. with the unassembled components you get from wzs, upgrade the 242 to 248. while doing this, use cxp boosts and you'll get to 300 rather quick (2-3 weeks without a double xp event) and pick up some 236/242 drops on the way. Will take a lot less time than waiting to get to 300 and hoping for useful drops. While progressing through the command tiers, keep whatever legendary drops you get, even implants/earpieces/relics which you wouldn't want. you might get, for example a 242 devastating vengence which together with enough UCs you could trade in for an unassembled 248 relic which could be turned into a seredipitous assault relic. same for impants/earpieces with "unwanted" stats.

had a wz republic side recently. was on my TK sage with gear 238 rating. got 4 commandos on the team, all in tier 4. they dropped like flies. ended up doing most damage, most kills while offhealing for about 1 milion and i'm an average player at best. ppl actually complained about my crap healing and told me what a bad healer i was, because i didn't keep them alive longer. in 1 month we probably won't see any of them anymore.

Giradda the Hutt.

perhaps something like adding trauma stacks up to let's say 80% heals reduction might help with the TTK here. as this wouldn't affect pve balance, it' would be much easier to fine tune.

definetly. around 15k kills towards my manhunter were from my tank, who naturally has a lower average per warzone as a dotspread dps. also to speed things up a bit, at some point i made a madness sorc and did a lot of lowbies and midbies pvp. as i was augumented, stimmed and had all datacrons plus experience with the maps and classes, while others were there on their first toon, empty slots, no stims, no augs, with no idea what's actually going on. high kill counts were quite easy to achieve, much easier than at max level. i got 15k kills much much quicker than on my tank. especially since if i place some HOT on another player i get credits for some of his kills too. not a good criterion indeed.

thank you. didn't know about the thresholds for alacrity. will try to make some adjustments to my deception assassin. will drop alacrity to around 800, keep crit at 1800 and put the rest into power. i'm curious to see how it'll play out.

quickest way to get 246 schematics is definetly the pvp weekly at tier 4 as there are 2-3 schematics that drop from the purple crate. after a few weeks at tier 4 i had almost all mods and enhancements. only barels/hilts were rare drops for me. from dailies i haven't had any schematics drop so far, only refined isotope (common) and rarely a void matter catalyst.
