Pro-tip of the moment. Force Slow interrupts node capping and is instant. It's what I use.

Currently a lot of the player base has a negative outlook on the stat Alacrity. With a lot of classes itemization we're forced to buy other classes gear and remove the mods just to be optimal. The process is so terrible that we're replacing higher mods in our Rakata gear with mods from Columi gear. Playing a class with a lot of instant casts Alacrity has no benefit due to abilities being tied to animations and the gcd. Even hots and dots don't get increased speed making the stat worthless for a lot of us. Is there any plans to adjust Alacrity (similar to the surge changes) or make changes to the stats on gear to be more useful?

While I can see how some people hate the changes, there needs to be an option for some to turn it off. Personally I really really like the change as I'm slightly vision impaired and it helps tremendously. Please make it a UI option. Even better than the lines moving downward would be an actual numeric value for cooldowns. Also a forum poll is beyond terrible as an idea. Only a fraction of players partake in the forums. A lot of people avidly avoid these troll and whine invested boards. They are definitely not representative of the entire population at large.

Perhaps there's more wrong with social points than a lot of you think. I'll just leave this here: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=90278

As a consular I can let you know as a consolation prize there's tons of pretty pretty dresses you get to wear. Even if your character is male. In fact I have yet to find a pair of pants and I'm getting a little drafty.

Since the majority of this game is based around grouping what I'm doing is using Nadia as a portable storage space for my off spec gear or opposite set. Right now she's in the Columi clown suit while I'm PvP'ing. If I decide to run a flashpoint I summon her strip her down and she gets to wear my PvP set. Since Zenith is next to useless I may start equipping him in my healing set I'm starting to work on. The huge bonus of wearing light armor while all our pets wear Medium and up. Nadia doesn't suck in my off suit, then gear 1 tank and tharan for a healer. The rest is all storage bots.

To get the 5k healing medal I'll tap down to about 30% life and then before entering combat I'll burn Force Potency and either my Rakata Surge Adrenal or my Rakata Power Adrenal stacked with the Rakata Stim and my self buff. I also use the time at the start to analyze what my team is doing. If there's one guy heading west on Alderaan and the rest middle I'll help the west guy. Look around for a good vantage point in Huttball and to decide which side to go towards in Voidstar. Staying back those extra 10 seconds helps me not be the focal target and get nuked down as well.

We had a GM event in game today during a daytime EV run. Random people would drop over dead for no reason, just as if a GM had insta killed them.

I admit to doing it just for the 2 healing badges at the start of warzones. The only way as a dps that I can hit the 5k heal medal is popping a surge trinket and getting a crit. So I'll do it as soon as we are unleashed. Then it's off to blow some people up and try to win.

http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=210368 Is where I submitted my list of minor things I'd like to see fixed or added.

Awesome been looking for that one. Thanks.

What minor changes would you love to see that would improve your quality of life? The little things that you're going "how did they miss that one?". If there's a work around please let me know or add yours to the list. My list so far includes: 1: Sprint - make it a toggle. On or off and persistent through death. 2: /readycheck 3: /roll 4: Cooldown timers. - I'm slightly vision impaired numbers are much easier to see than a faded line. 5: Clickable name plates - Why can't I click on a player's nameplate to target them. 6: Sortable vendors/GTN by item slot or stats. I'm not always looking through 100 pairs of +aim boots that I have to search through trying to find a +willpower helm. 7: GTN searchable by item name 8: Clicking on a player's name in chat to add friends. 9: Some form of minor combat log so I know "*** was that that nuked me or caused a wipe". 10: Some minor macros for being able to bind /party to a command so when I use an interrupt on rotation I can let my group know. 11: Different colored icons on quest givers that are daily or repeatable. 12: More labeling of flashpoint locations. I've had too many groups driving around Gav station going where is it? The first boss is actually getting your group into the flashpoint. 13: Allow us to ignore crew skill mission completions while in combat. 14: Allow speeders in orbital stations or cut down on the load here, here and here just to get onto a planet. Having to go Loading dock, ship, loading dock, hanger bay, orbital station twice just to go do a daily quest is tedious and redundant. 15: Last online in the friends list or guild list. (Just really hard to find but exists) 16: Target of Target frame. 17: My debuffs focused. I can't tell if it's my weaken mind or the other sage's on the mob. While I'm squinting to see the duration line ticking down to refresh it (visual numeric timers here again please). 18: A visual proc display. So we don't have to star at our bars. Perhaps using the combat fly text. 19: Fast travel to your ship. 20: Quick travel while in spaceports or orbital stations for that planet. 21: CC'd targets are never auto selected and immune to companion's aoe abilities. 22: Being able to compare any companion's gear when not on your ship and don't have them summoned. The companion cycling on the ship is awesome but while on the fleet I have to summon each companion individually. Also while they are on a mission if something I come across I'd like to know immediately than wait for them to return.

Just a curious question coming from your counter part on the republic side. Our equivalent talent to Forked Lightning is bugged. Currently there's a delay of about 2 seconds when adding on the 30% damage when using Disturbance. Disturbance is the equiv of Lightning Strike. The worst part of the bug is Telekinetic Wave (Chain Lightning) doesn't proc any additional damage regardless of how many times you cast it when the talent is at 3/3. It supposedly works with 1/3 in the talent but going 3/3 it doesn't at all. Here's hoping you guys aren't experiencing the same issue that us Consular are. Since we're mirrored you may also be experiencing it.

Definitely bugged. Also the added damage on Disturbance doesn't occur for almost a full 2 seconds. I'm thinking it could be tied to the cast time of Disturbance. But after killing a bunch of lvl 28 elites in Cad I hadn't seen any procs on TK wave.
