What is the number of times I was force choked or knocked down while doing the Revan weekly on my Sniper just now Alex?

I think the fact that you *can* AFK the fight says enough about how it needs fixed. I just don't even bother now that I geared up most of the comps I use. In fact...I pretty much don't even go to Yavin anymore unless doing the Walker or ToS.

One of the most disappointing planets yet in many regards.

BW can fix this thing by making Dual saber throw static. So it couldn't keep tracking you.
Simple. Same way as a second boss on the Rakata Prime (a cyborg). You can see AoE - you can MOVE OUT.

Yer - talking of AFK'ing the fight.
Sent a Guardian DPS to do it last night. Jumped in, did a couple of hits and on the first force choke I alt-tab'ed out to finish off something on a website.
Flipped back into the game to find my JK dead and the "Revive here or medcentre" option on screen. I revived there and this time watched the whole fight through. At no point was I anywhere near dying etc. So I dunno what happened, but I think that's the first time I've seen a dead character there since the fight was initially bugged and the orbs didn't appear.

They can make it so the OP just walks in the instance and gets rewards if the OP isn't capable of completing the fight. I had ZERO issues completing it SOLO multiple times. I'm not trying to be rude but that fight is ridiculously easy and I'm not a raider. I'm a baddie.
The best MMO I have played in a long time. Not perfect but pretty close to it.

OP is not saying it is hard, just annoying when you spend 3/4 of the fight stunned

You don't know what you are talking about do you?

Apparently not.

I'd like to assume you aren't this dense, so dial the 'obstinate for the sake of it' back to neutral, please.
Good. Bad. I'm the twi'lek with the saber.

Elaborate. Tell us all why you "have" to do the Revan weekly.

Oh, OK. But it still remains that after doing it once to finish the story, you don't have to ever do it again.

Which would not be a problem if Ziost didn't require completing the SoR storyline, but it does and I agree having to run all of my alts through a tedious, unchallenging stunfest is not fun. At least make saber throw stun stationary, that'd reward players who move out of it.
If you choose to take an endless parade of alts through, that's on you. Really, some of you people make it sound like you're being forced to donate a kidney. It takes, what, 5 minutes or so. I certainly don't find it very challenging, but I like getting the comms for my characters, so the end reward is worth it.

Is it really necessary to spend half the fight on your back or floating in the air due to force choke and knockdowns? I mean it's at least every 10 to 15 seconds he spams one of those attacks.

A quote I often use in MMOs...

Tedium is not difficulty.
I am with you on this, if he aint force choking you he "saber throws" which both of them knock you on your *** for a few seconds but yeah agree at least tone it down a bit for him spamming those moves..

So what? Is that the only way to get elite comms now? Was that just patched or something?
