are you using your interrupts(stun, knockback, actual interrupt)? usually when I come across a mob that just dominates me(always an elite or champion though, never a silver strong) i can come back and retry and do better when i focus on stopping their casts

It's called knowing how to play and using your abilities properly. Not just spamming random buttons. Strong mobs are pushovers.

If I have the option of taking on two strong silver', or two gold elites, I will take the gold elites every-time. Right before they brought down beta testing we told Bioware that silver elites were too strong. So they nerfed the gold ones.... I know, right. Most testers were fine with getting kicked around by gold elites, it was the silver ones handing us our Bantha hide that drove us crazy. But oh well, since then, soloing a Heroic +2 has been a cakewalk, I guess that is the silver lining.

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. Hmm, that's funny because yesterday I killed 4 lvl 47 strong mobs at once on my 46 guardian on Corellia. Granted I had to use cooldowns and a medpack but I still did it. This is with Kira too. (Melee dps companion) Helps if you keep your gear up to date and your companions. I'm in full orange gear with lvl 44+ mods, Kira is in full orange gear and 40+ mods.

This is I think the root of the problem at least with how difficult the class quest lines are... They don't seem to make it a certain difficultly based on two different AC's and specs doing the same quest, whats easy for one ac (healer usually) isn't as easy for another (dps,tank) to solo. The final quest in the trooper quest line is almost impossible as a tank speced vanguard where you have 2 strong commando's that cross heal each other about every 6 seconds on top of putting out some major dps before you even see the final elite but for commandos its not nearly has difficult.

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. You know, there are other players.... it's an MMO. If you need help, grab it. But if you like the challenge, you certainly can overcome it... you did in just a couple tries. I remember when I'd be stuck for days in games of the past, single player games puzzles fights whatever. This isn't bad and infact could design. You overcame it.

Unless, of course, you blew the 20min CD and then run around some obstacles to LoS mobs and taunded the loose ones Kira overaggroed, because there is just no way you could survive direct assault from 4 strongs, even with perfect usage of CDs, and kill them all fast enough

If it has not been mentioned before check out the cantina vendor. They sell prescence buffs that can be used at the same time as stims, this can make quite a difference to how long your pet lasts.

Silver by itself dosent mean much because they vary significantly. Some Silvers can be really easy and others extremely hard which is entirely dependant on class, loadout and area. It can be more than possible for some classes to engage 1 - 2 elites. Sorc especially can pull that off because they can instantly take one out of the fight for 60secs, stun the other multiple times, kill it then repeat for the second. If your running top end gear for your level, choosen Biochem and running the right companion combination you can get through most of the game extremely easy.
