Strong "Silver" Enemies are Getting Rediculous.

Look I am all for difficult games, but these mob types are just annoying, they do more damage than elites half the time. I spend majority of my time spam healing my companion because if he dies I am going to get 5 shotted by this stupid mob type.

Maybe I just suck, maybe my class is just underpowered. Honestly I don't care either way, I don't know about you guys but I don't want to spend two hours destroying four rebel supply boxes for some weak reward.

Difficult should stay in flashpoints and operations and even class quests, but the stupidly boring normal quests should not take a thought out strategic plan to accomplish.

No silver Strong enemies hit like a gosh darn truck past level 40. I'd prefer to fight 2 elites than 2 strong's. :P

I would say you're problem is probably that you and your companion could have better gear.


A lot of people forget to keep their companions gear in particular updated.

Ya if I dont use my stun which takes someone out for 1 minute unless they get damage, 2 strongs are going to steamroll me and my companion.

Some Strong/Elites are just re-effing-donkulous.

Example: My Knight had just turned 49. I was being forced to kill a 48 Elite (gold) enemy to progress my class story. I had PURPLE 22 (lvl 49) hilts and Blue 20-21 armor mods for me and my companion.

He would 3-shot my companion and end up kicking me in the face.

I literally nearly rage-unsub'd.

Since I never had THAT bad of a problem after that, I can only assume that enemy's individual difficulty was completely jacked up. I'm sure the same thing happens with other Strong/Elites in the world.

They start to get really brutal 40+ for some classes.

They just take longer to kill; their health pool is considerable. I'm not sure why having to use CC is a bad thing. I hate keeping my companion updated because it's costs enough just keeping myself geared so I rely on quests to provide it for her. Haven't had a problem...
