What spec are you?

I did 1300 dps over 9 minutes on a test dummy on my sorc yesterday and I didnt have the sniper or warrior buff. An operative was doing about 50-100 more than me in the same test with same buffs. In our last EC run, a merc was doing about 50 more than me, and a sniper and marauder were doing about 150 more than me. I just wanted to see if people had done same-situation comparisons of different classes. Telling me you did 1300 dps doesnt tell me how other classes did in the same situations. I am not lookign for opinions. I am looking for numbers.

I know that the info is probably out there, but I have not been able to find legimate data describing which specs and classes put out the most dps. I am not interested in opinions. I want actual numbers from parsing. So far, based on our parsing, I've noticed that Marauders/Snipers/Ops/Mercs seem to be near the top, although I do not know in which order. Sorcs/Sins/Juggs/PT's seem to be in the 2nd tier. Please provide a link to a website or actual dps parsing information.

You're not taking into account that each guild has different start times on each boss. If guild a kills boss 1 in 1 day and guild 2 kills boss 1 in 5 days, but they both kill boss 2 by the 6th day, essentially one guild took 1 day then 5, and the other took five days then 1. so why should the first guild get more points for boss kill #1, but get equal points on boss 2 when they took substantially longer to kill him?

That makes sense, sort of. Except that the Tour de France clearly has start and end points to each leg. In our case, the time it takes to kill a boss is never "paused" as the tour de france is. So, technically, given your example, the quickest finish of all legs would be whoever kills the last boss first. It doesn't matter if you lost stages 1-3 if you made up for it in the last leg. I see this more like playoff baseball/hockey, etc. You might go down 3 games to none (i.e. they killed 3 bosses before you killed one), but who cares if you finish off and kill all four before they can finish. Final series score: 4 to 3. I just feel like clearing Nightmare EC will be a feat. Whoever kills NiM Kephess first is the first to be done with all content. Why should anything else matter?

Just my 2 cents: We killed bosses 1 and 2 on the day it came out. Another guild on our server killed all 4 two days later. We finished up the instance and killed the last 2 four days after our initial kill. Both guilds killed all 4 bosses. Our guild currently outscores them. They killed the last 2 bosses before us, yet we rank above them. I don't think I like this. Shouldn't the #1 guild in the world be the first group to CLEAR the instance? I would be upset if I killed Nightmare kephess first but didn't get the #1 rank. Should last boss of instance have more weight?

Where you at Retribution? And for that matter, all of Mandalore the Indomitable. Ghost Legion (us) are the only guild on server to report a kill yet. (even if it was just story 8 man)

This^ I always find it comical how theres 2 threads next to eachother saying opposite things, yet both players are convinced they are right. One will say "This is why sorcs need to be nerfed" and the others will say "sorc needs a buff". What it comes down to is that bad players die a couple times to a skilled/geared player and immediately cry nerf. Well, guess what? Learn to play. Theres not a single class out there that I don't kill at least some of the time. Sure, in straight 1v1, there are probably a few that will beat me every time... But there are also others that I will beat every time. If you think assassins are imba, I challenge you to make one, get to 50, gear up, and find out that you suck at that class too. Of course, you will convince yourself that some other class is the new flavor of the week and needs to be nerfed, so don't bother. I wish I could say to these people "you know who you are" but you obviously don't or you wouldn't be crying on the forums. Love this post by the way. Well done.

Possible bug scenario: It seems like the comfirmations and disputes are tied directly to a boss kill. For example. "Pylons HM 16 man" can have -3 reputation associated with it. Whats to stop guilds from deleting a recorded kill and just resubmitting it? Would that wipe the slate of bad reputation clean? Just wondering how this works and if you've looked into it.

Kreven! You have no life! Anyhow, Ghost Legion is up and running in the new tracking site. We are progressing even though you ditched us for greener pastures!

Bacta only came into play because kolto supplies shorted out.

I would ask for a huttball map wit less terrain and obstacles. Huttball is all about pushing people off platforms and into fire. Whoever knocksback first wins. I'd like to see huttball with less vertical terrain, specifically.

I like Huttball too. Just because you make up statistics does not make them valid.

You have to factor in queue times. If you get instant queues, then yes. If you have a 5 mins queue time between matches, then no, its not likely better valor to win fast.

I think Sniper has a high skill cap and a steep learning curve. If you suck at sniper (which I don't blame you for) then its not the classes fault. That being said, I think it still needs a buff to account for the type of class and playstyle it is.
