Ok, well first of all I must be a serious idiot. I don't even have half the attacks you all listed, Awe, Guarded by the force, and many others. When I leveled up and went to the trainer a lot of the new things seemed to me to be useless, but I am by no means any kind of authority, this is my first PC game and the console RPGs I've played don't have this level of complexity. I do have Rebuke, and Saber Ward and I use them often. As for my spec I kinda split between Focus and Combat, I have nothing in Watchmen. When I read the stats to choose from In Watchmen, most of them seemed useless. I currently use Kira as my companion because I was able to out fit her for free, a friend gave me a bunch of sweet gear for her so now sadly she is better equipped than I. I do have all orange gear and my top armor number is 124, my lowest is 112. My saber hilts are both 124, and I have Black-on-blue and Black-on-orange color crystals. As for mods and enhancements I am seriously lacking. I have a full set of PVP gear I got for free at lv50, and a valor rank of 33. I tried to use Doc when I got him, but her couldn't heal me much before whatever I was fighting toasted him, so I went back to Kira. I have been running the Athiss FP by my self over and over to make some credits. I usually make about 15,000 Creds per run, but it takes about 30 min each time. I will do what I can to pick up these other attacks and ability's that you all have listed. As for stat distribution should I go with the Watchmen track exclusively? Or can I continue my split between the other two? Also what is the best light saber form to use? To be honest I don't really see any difference between them in combat. Thanks to all of you for your help so far! I really appreciate it and I'm glad you've all been so kind about it. In a nut shell, thanks for not calling me dumb:)

I agree completely! I've done my best to avoid PVP because most of the time when I'd give it a shot, some jerk Sith would single me out a annihilate me over and over. I prefer the PVE because like many others who started playing this game I started on Xbox with the KotOR games years ago. I grew to love the story and characters of those game (especially HK-47) and I was super pumped when they announced HK-51's release as a companion. But then I find out that I have to not only have a lv 50 toon to get him, I have to do two FP's one on hard mode, go through a bunch of PVP crap, AND have an alt toon who is a Sith! I hate the Sith! Why should I be forced to play as one just to get access to a companion when I already paid $60 for this game when it came out, and continue to pay $15 a month just to play it? In the trailer before his release they said that there was "A whole fleet of them(the HKs)" in this crashed ship. and we were lead to believe that the challenge would be getting *TO* him, not running all over the damn galaxy, doing FP's, PVP, and making alt toons just to get his parts! Besides didn't they do that is KotOR 2? I'm more than mad about all this

Hi! My Sentinels name is Smarky, I just recently reached lv 50. And I have to say I am really struggling, to be honest I get my butt kicked way to often. I can barely hold my own against even small groups of enemys, who are lv 45! If there are more than two of them I'm going get destroyed. I know that as a DPS that strength is the most important stat for me, fallowed by endurance. Currently they are 1090 and 1080 respectively. I am nearly broke because I spent most of my credits on updates for my armor and I could only afford to hit 124. I think 150 is the highest armor rating right? Well anyway not only am I having all this trouble I also just got promoted to Guild master of my guild! We are a small guild and I feel kinda like the blind leading the blind here. There isn't anyone more qualified to run things and I do my best to help but I feel like I need to get better equipped and stronger to be a more effective Guild leader. Can anyone help me with outfitting and skill distribution? because If I can't get him in order as a Jedi, I'm switching to my Commando a and making him Guild leader. For some reason he does so much better in combat, but I want to fix my Sentinel because he was my first toon. Please help!

Thank you all again for taking the time to help me out, I'm already doing ALOT better with me character! I just wanted to ask if any of you had any other helpful tips for playing, and maybe advise for finding groups for Heroic quests? I can never seem to find anyone who will help me out.

Yeah I tried in a free for all PVP area on Tatooine and EVERYONE was LV 50 and kicked the crap out of me before i could even launch an attack. I was just trying to cross the area later to get the datacron and I couldn't make it more than two steps before getting stomped.

I also wanted to ask about crew skills. I currently have Treasure hunting, Artifice, and Archeology. But i'm finding it very difficult to craft things. It keeps telling me i need things like fibrous nylite and other things i've never even seen or heard of. I noticed that alot of people make good money crafting and selling things and as i am short on credits this would help greatly. Also PVP. What exactly does it entail? Where can I do it? what are the pros and cons of it? I've looked all over the swtor site and it just give vague answers.

Thank you very much for the information!!! I spent a couple of hours shopping around for equipment and found some good stuff. I still need a few orange pieces before my character has a complete set of mod-able gear, but its all coming together. Also is there anything to the space battles or should I continue to avoid them?

Hi, I'm new to both the PC gaming and MMO worlds, And I would like to ask if anyone out there could help me with outfitting my character. I'm a level 31 but up until now I've just been bungling around and it has been very tough for me. I just want some advise on how to and what to outfit my character with, Also what certain terms mean. For example What is power? I've seen several items that give boosts to this what what is it exactly? Any other help would be greatly appreciated.
