Strong "Silver" Enemies are Getting Rediculous.

I lvled as a healing Commando and played with Vik (my melee tank) from the moment i got him. While Forex is a very cool char, getting gear for a droid was to much for me.

Being a healer all the way, sometimes I still had to go ape-**** on the heals to keep Vik up. Voss comes to mind, where there are a couple of fights where you need to take on two or three silvers a time. CC´ing doesnt always work, because the companion AI doesnt take it into account with skill usage. I usually end up dying due to burst damage. Mind you, I solo´d champions on the same planet, without Vik, just by healing myself and chipping away. Silvers do so frikkin much burst its unfair.
Besides that, interrupting is nice and all, if you can... The Commando doesnt have a dedicated interrupt and has to use either my 30sec cd knockback or my 1min cd stun. This I find kinda fail.

I solo Champions, groups of Elites...the silvers are lolable.

That being said, i play a Mercenary and find that it is vastly easier to do this on that toon than it is on a Sith Warrior for instance. I think you will find that some classes solo vastly better than others. My Bounty Hunter for instance has solo'd every heroic up to lvl 27. Granted i have been above the level requirement for the 4 man ones, but still relatively close. my sith warrior has had it handed to him when i have tried.

I to find it easier to kill a Gold Enemy then a Silver One. I think it just might be a bug but usually a silver is accompanied by two other regular enemy's. Taking fire from three or four targets with a silver can drain your health faster.

I agree. I leveled as Immortal spec Juggernaut and when there was two of these I had a very difficult time. If I used DPS companion I would melt and if I used healer I wouldn't be able to kill them before I died. I considered myself reasonable up to par with gear on both myself and my companion blues all over but I still had a very hard time and used a fortune on repairs because I got facerolled all the time.

My solution was to grind warzones to level up to +2 at least and it went better. That or getting help.

As a Marauder I've been fine with the mob difficulty leveling up, no complaints, but now I've run into the wall that's the last parts of the class story line. Now I just feel weak and useless.. no fun at all

by the time you hit 40, a 2 strong pull with just completely destroy you (dps spec using heal companion, dont know about tanks/healers with companions) if you dont CC one right away.

Some strongs/elite are just ridiculous. There is a specific robotic strong that has a channeled missile attack that hits me for 1k a second for 3 seconds. As a merc with no interrupt, these robots are a pain in the *** to kill.

I recommend using stems - they have helped turn the tide in my favor on many occasions.

Sorry to hear you are having problems though.

I love the tough fights, they really test me like I haven't been tested in an MMO in ages. This bodes well for future play throughs imo and will keep the game from ever getting stale.

May the force be with you!

Tank companions (which were required to beat the game, hence why you are forced to use them in some of the final story quests) initially had an additional buff tied to their tanking stance. It was something like 60% more armor. It was pretty substantial and meant they would actually survive long enough for you to finish the boss off. Right now they'll just die in a few hits, forcing you to do your best to finish him off by yourself or being forced to bring a friend/cheese the boss.

Best thing to do is make sure your companion is NOT using ANY aoe attacks. You will notice a huge difference when you can keep one stunned and take them one at a time. There is an annoying bug that resets the abilities your companion uses everytime you load, dismiss and recall your companion, and if you die, so you have to keep an eye on the abilities you have enabled. Hope this helps.

this ...and just this..or you way to far in your class quest and you left other quests behind...

no "silver" NPC is to strong..even if they 2...
