Roll sorc/sage. Keybind everthing to lightning/pebble spam.
Alternatively, roll merc/commando and keybind everything to tracer missile/whatever commandos have.

Let your parrot walk over keyboard while you watch adult movies.
Collect your hard earned epicz.
Profit.

Excellent post. Here are my thoughts.

1) Be optimistic:
Picture everyone beating you down as scared and acting in defense.. instead of picturing some teen laughin at your poor skill. You may be sith on game... channel your rage into harmonious slaughter. And not facerolling on your keyboard.

2) Try to focus on your class:
Dont buy into trolls and whiners on forums "my class sucks". Learn the game changing traits of your class. Who you work best against and who you could avoid (range vs melee) etc.

3)Prioritize your spells.
Dont burn out all your c.d.s. learn your spells as if your building a 99 hit combo. Spell 1-it interrupt- relic+ hard hitting spell 2- interrupt heal- finisher etc.

4) learn your surrounding
Line of sight your enemy. Thia can cause them to get frustrated or move to someone else.

5) Team up and dont go solo in warfront
You have better chances of survival when working together.

6) stimpacks
Can be game changers .. time it well. Dont wait till your below 30%health.

Skill before gear.. (just unless he is all champions). Remember pvp can feel better like a grind sometimes.. just roll with it. Perfect your rotation.. anticipate ur enemys move... and surprise them.

FOR THE EMPIRE!!!

Are you trying to prove that this person doesn't ever check his/her mail? That's all I got out of it.

Also, I love when sorcs/sages do nothing but that. With the little PvP gear I have, they die.

Another suggestion I would make is to learn how to communicate important information quickly on vent. Calling out who you're healing, who you're guarding, who you're targeting, which of the targets is a healer etc etc is important. The more information you can communicate clearly, quickly and concisely the better.
