just another reason to play focus/rage, no dispellable dots...ba dump bump...pshhh!

Well, Sorcs/Sages can dispel Force Crush/Force Exhaustion for whatever that's worth.

Pretty sure the 31 talent is dispelable by sages.

Worth a lot since it denies you shock waves.

the spec doesnt soley rely on damage from exhaustion, thats just one way to build singularity, youi still have choke and zen to build it. where as annhi/watchman it is almost totally relying on dots for damage..again, focus ftw ba dump bump...psh

The spec relies on the 31 talent to proc singularity, which makes the sweeps hurt. The damage from it is also pretty substantial, but it's mainly used to proc singularities for those bombs. W/o it, focus spec is luls.

Sorry but that's not true. Watchman is not primarily dots, anyone who thinks that obviously hasn't played the class. As far as force crush goes, while it may not be the only method of gaining shockwaves, if your choke or enrage are on CD, a cleanse will shut you down for a while.

In case of a Juggernaut/Guardian, yes.

Sentinels/Marauders can build Centering/whatever the Imperial version is called (Fury?) so quickly, however, that they suffer a lot less from Exhaustion being cleansed.

OK enlighten me, where does "most" of watchmans damage come from? If you dont say Dots, then you pbviously havent played watchman, most of the tree is deling with increasing the damage/heal ability, or crit chance of those dots, not to mention the dot slow ability...Not mostly form dots, srsly?

I always thought it was centered around DoTs as well.

My damage on my marauder comes from DOTS due to berserk always being up. So rupture + deadly saber does the most damage. Second would be ravage plus annihilate which makes for a powerful burst.

So I have no idea what that guy is talking about.

I think you need to go play it again to see what you missed.

Ravage isn't even a priority for annihilation. If all you're using is that and anni then you're doing it wrong.

Highest DPS for Annilation is Deadly Sabers.

Also of note that Deadly Sabers seems to be physical as well, and a single cleanse can remove both Deadly Sabers and Rupture with only one cast.

rupture and the deadly saber dots are both fast, 6 second duration, so its not like most sorcs or snipers where an early cleanse can really negate a lot, especially coupled with the 'next 3 melee attacks' nature of deadly saber and cleanse cooldown meaning at best you'll negate maybe half of the potential damage, and at the expense of not straight healing whatever moves theyre using to place the dots.

its kind of like the powertech 100% proc of combustible gas from flame burst. theres just no real defense against it (except resilience)

mercs/commandos can dispell marauder and sentinel dots every 6 sec for 8 heat.

but i'm pretty sure everyone already knows that

Healers just use the cleanse when they're moving and can't use a casted heal. Removing mara's dots also means they aren't healing themselves and their team.

You're wrong. Proven again and again by other people, parses, and your lack of ability to prove where most of the damage comes from if not from dot's. Deadly Saber/rupture is where most of the damage comes from.

Run a parser man, you'll cry when you see what % of your total damage comes from bleeds/burns. It's like 30-40%. Now imagine a Sage cleansing 40% of your damage every 4.5 seconds.
