  1. This is actually the most single disheartening change that personally affects me. I made a sniper from the beginning and ever since and I fell in love with OS from the moment I first casted it. I noticed the 2 piece PvP set bonus was to add an extra tick to OS so I farm 2 pieces of champion to make OS even more fun. Orbital Strike is, in my opinion, the coolest ability in this game and probably one of my top 3 favorite abilities in ANY MMO I have ever played. But now we have this patch. You guys are taking the signature move of the agent class and turning it into a limp noodle. I don't even know what else to say... If you didn't like where snipers were in terms of dps then nerf other abilities and not the classes signature move. You guys are destroying the coolest ability in your game because people were using it in a way that wasn't in your "vision" and I find that a really crappy thing to do.
  2. Happens to everyone, just to be so quick to get angry or you may miss an easy solution next time.
  3. Did you click the mission items tab when you searched your inventory?
  4. I just got my jugg to 50 during the double xp weekend (I already have a 50 mara). I was seriously thinking about going lightside jaesa on my jugg but I decided that I didn't like the voice acting, so I went darkside again... sad times. Oh well, looks like I will be powerleveling a mara to the end of chapter 1 now.
  5. Would be nice if they made it an auto crit ambush instead of snipe.
  6. Whoops... I misread the OP. I thought he was talking about the regular crewskill missions, not the consumable ones.
  7. I am not talking with any authority here but, maybe they are just trying to reform crewskills and the gtn. By making materials more rare, the price will increase for those goods (a good thing for crafters). I personally think that it's good to increase the rarity of this stuff, it will add greater value to the items you craft. It is also possible that they are trying to get people to actually go out into makeb to farm the materials rather than sitting on the fleet sending out companions.
  8. Main is a sniper Alt is an operative and I would spec for healing One orbital strike is amazing to have for soloing heroics, adding a second one would be godly.
  9. Marks will be my spec. I have done a little bit of lethality, a little bit of hybrid, I leveled up an engineering gunslinger (whatever their tree is called) to level 50, I also have at least one level 50 of every advanced class in the game. Despite all of this, I still love my marks sniper. I love the playstyle and I am not even sure how to describe why I love it so much. Marks doesn't have to pull top numbers to keep my interest. It can be the weakest of the three trees or the strongest of the three trees and I will always continue playing marks, it is just too much fun to give up. I have also played a little bit on the PTS and I really enjoy the new playstyle as well. In fact it was quite irritating trying to go back to the normal rotation on live after becoming used to the followthroughs after almost every attack... I am looking forward to next week.
  10. Sorry but, there is nothing special about being a day 1 sniper. There is nothing special about being a least played class either. Your last line makes it sound like it was a difficult choice to play a sniper and that I had to play through horrible times in order to make it to where we are today. We may become a FOTM class in 2.0, but there have also been other claims on classes being "op" on the pts. But even if we do become the FOTM it doesn't matter. It just means that we will probably get nerfed a bit to bring us in line with other classes. If you truly enjoy your class, then you will stick with it despite nerfs. I love my sniper... I have played every AC to 50 and it is still my favorite. However, there is nothing special about me (or you) just because I enjoy the sniper over other classes and just because you have been a sniper from day 1. This post seems too much like an attempt at trying to gain sympathy for playing a class that you supposedly enjoy. Implying that you superior because you are a day 1 sniper is pretty ridiculous, sorry.
  11. I think an operative would be best. Most likely you will need at least some form of healing in order to do heroics solo and an operative can provide that. As a sniper I solo all of the 50 heroics (except for section x because it isn't possible) but I have to use Dr. Lokin.
  12. Very nice! I 2 manned this with an assassin tank friend of mine, I am a sniper. Needless to say it added a different level of difficulty trying to keep your healers alive when they like to stand in bad things and won't stack on savrak. Savrak took the most attempts to do because we had to pull in our companions and maneuver them into place for the smash, then hope they had the healing power to keep us alive in the spit phase. It was pretty fun to do, but I never want to do it again.
  13. As a sniper I can solo every H2 and H4 heroic at level 50 as well (using my healing companion). I was also able to solo up to the shield in the section X H4 solo, however no one can progress further than that due to the mechanics. Orbital strike basically makes it so I can blow up very large groups of mobs very quickly as long as you position yourself to bunch up all the mobs into one spot. As others have said, the assassin is great as well because you can simply stealth past everything and a tanking spec allows you to survive for however long you need to get the job done.
  14. You could romance him for a one time thing. But you had to choose the lightside options for the most part.
  15. So many weird replies in this thread. I have tanked, dpsed and healed my way up and through level 50 HM flashpoints. Here is a question for many of you, have you ever actually LOOKED at the difficulty of these pulls in flashpoints? They are a joke... around the difficulty of a Heroic 2 most of the time. I will pull groups as a dps (sniper) because they are weak enough to be soloed. There is zero reason to sit and form a strategy for trash in this game and things like crowd control are overkill. As a tank, I simply do not let the dps pull before me. My group does not spend the flashpoint waiting on me, they spend the flashpoint trying to keep up with me. I will pull and start to pull the next group before the first is completely killed... How can I do this?, because flashpoints are a joke in terms of difficulty. You guys all overhype how difficult flashpoints are in this game. No CC or strategy required (generally)... aoe everything and finish the FP and get out.
