Depends, if the Sentinel has all his cooldowns up, and attacks first he should be able to destroy a sage. If a sage spots a Sentinel at distance and starts and forces him to use gap closers, burn CC breakers ect earlier than expected Sage should win. Terrain also would play a part in all of this.

I believe it comes later.

All I will say is this, I've been playing moms for a long time and I've played since meridian 59. All classes get tweaked all class cry, but one thing remains...people adapt and overcome and if you are playing a class you like you will stick with it. I'll let people whine, I just wanted a thread with some brainstorming on how we will survive as a class. I'm not 50 yet so I don't have all the ins and outs

Got sage, done that

Any proposed respecs due to Nerf, any ideas?

My girlfriend and I both are leveling sages. It is great, we have no complaints. We even switch back and forth on specs. If you two want to play together it is a great combo.

I think that is a good idea. Perhaps at certain points in the valor ranking to get get ability points or something along those lines.

This is more of an open question/discussion. So, BW decided to remove 50s from pvp and put them into an exclusive bracket were they fight each other. The patch hasn't been live for very long, but everyone seems to love 1-49 pvp, and the 50s dislike their bracket. Now my understanding behind the new change was 50s were steamrolling lower levels because of the access to battlemaster gear ect correct? Now that battlemaster gear isn't available to the sub 50s the pvp has flourished and for the most part people in the 1-49 brackets are happy. Now as far as making money, customer service, and keeping subscriptions (which is what BW is in business for) does it seem logical for them to mirror the 1-49 bracket since it is successful? I know all the 50/60+ Valor people work hard, and they should be rewarded, but instead of gear perhaps give them abilities or cool looking gear (same effects at other gear) or the ability to unlock certain content. I just ask this because my job is in Public Relations and I watch the forums/twitter feeds after the Ilum fiasco and I was saddened at how bad BW handled it from a PR perspective. What are your guys thoughts? Am I crazy?

Ummm I play a Seer Sage, and a Scoundrel. I get stabbed in the *** plenty as a sage, and I shot people quite often as a scoundrel. Not sure what you are missing, beside talent points to give you a better edge. You don't even have sprint yet.

Other than SWTOR what are your hobbies? I golf, play football, shoot guns, hike, drink beer, watch play off games, socialize, enjoy the real world. Maybe not everyone plays the game for 4-5 hours a night? Let me ask you this, have you ever missed a meal, or didn't realize what time it was while playing SWTOR? If so, you are showing signs of addiction.

Cross server pvp is a no go plain and simple. Character progression on servers is totally unique to that server. Stop complaining, and just enjoy the game.

sine sine

HOLY CRAP This is crazy, they need to fix this ASAP

I am at work, what the hell is going on?! Damn you work!!!

I dig it! How does this fair in flashpoints/raids? Do you find any short comings with this spec?
