  1. Hey Zabuza, Its Kray from old JC, I am now on POT5.

     

    I have rolled a shadow for PvP Tanking on pub side, your guide has awesome calculations for gearing but i still can't decide between mitigation and endurance, I wish there was a way to parse it, I think I am going to just have to get both partisan sets and test it out.

     

    On another note, I see you mention the healing relic... could it prove fruitful to use healing relic and shield relic? My reasoning stems from the concept the defence has such high diminishing returns.

     

    Thanks, Kray

  2. Hello POT5, my name is Krayshawn. I rerolled about 3 weeks ago from Jedi Covenant and with server transfers around the corner, my buddies will be coming back and we are gearing in partisan atm. The guild name is Hakuna Matata!

     

    As for other guilds, the generally hated on LD50, will be transferring here, they will field a very powerful rank team.

     

    Hakuna Matata will be here to stay and are very excited to compete amongst so many established teams.

     

    It means no worries, for the rest of your days, Its a problem free... Philosophy, Hakuna Matata!

  3. Easy, they listened to the mm snipers that qq about not being able to move (in addition to giving all snipers that roll) and whilst they were at it decided to change follow through....and alacrity (although that's not sniper specific).

     

    Look at it from the ranked aspect, compared to Leth, MM did not provide much of a belonging to a ranked team compared to what other classes have. I personally always thought MM could be viable, but nearly everyone disagreed.

     

    Look at it now. It has way more viability then it could have dreamed for before. More mobility to hunt down thos LoSing it, The ability to be more than just an anchor in Huttball (Roll over fire pit). As well as a 15 second trauma debuff with a better root now.

     

    Every class got its changes. If you think MM is op you may as well say Mercs are OP now too with their hydraulic overrides, reduced knock back cool down, 3 instant casts, and electro net.

  4. Unless the pts skill calcs on swtor-spy are horribly wrong, Immaculate Force (auto-crit Blade Storm) is still in there and there hasn't been any change to how often ataru form will be procced. If anything, Combat will require less skill than it already does because at least now the idiots who leap in, Precision Strike, and proceed to Master Strike, thinking they won't be stunned, can reproc Precision Strike.

     

    Never said they removed Immaculate Force, but it now uses Oppertune attack proc instead of combat trance.

     

    You have been served.

  5. Saying that engineering lacks crit is quite an accurate feeling. The crit chance was nerfed across the board. However, certain specs have gotten crit chance to compensate: MM has a total of +19% crit chance for SoS, +15 for Takedown +4% Snipe, FT. As you see no crit for Ambush, actually it never was.

     

    On the other side they removed the proc from ambush, its pure 1,5s.

    Lethality has its own extra crit chance for poisons and cull.

     

    Engineering has none of them. I will base my spec selection on the classes that i encounter.

    If it will be full of melee again, MM. If I will see sins switching to tanking, lethality will be my first choice.

     

    MM is the obvious choice for melee, I dominate marauders, jugs, and deception sins, for concealment it dpeneds how good they are. Overall Mm is very powerful against Melee.

  6. In 2.0 I beleive that Anhilation will most likely be the strongest mara spec for the sole purpose of pressuring healers other then that, carnage requires more skill now, nerfing the Force Scream insta crit, making it go off of Execute instead of bloodfrenzy ( basically gone from 100% on ataur hit to a 30%).

     

    Over all, smash will prob be the stongest/ easiest spec.

  7. Last night guys from my server decided to do ranked on pts (no exploiting). I ran MM but the other sniper ran a revised rendition of 21/20. He ran 0/28/18 he pulled like 1900 DPS on a hypergate. (we were all wearing the PvE gear BTW)
  8. I dueled a really good sniper buddy of mine yesterday, and vigilance did really well against him.

     

    I only played as a defense tank in a couple of WZ's. I dropped 910k protection (thanks exploiters). My taunting & hiding was a great tactic!

     

    You did well against a sniper? what tree?

     

    I am playing MM on PTS and am dominating a lot of classes in duels, especially my (very good) jug veng friend. Can you explain how you fought the kiting so I can relay the message? Thanks!

  9. My friend is a huge Veng nut, he loves it for PvP and is an amazing dueler with it. He was very disspirited by the changes, or the lack there of compared to other classes.

     

    My sniper dominated him, same with assassins, idk what else, but hes not too happy about it. You all sound over ecstatic, but to me these changes don't look as though they deserve such praise (from a PvP standpoint) especially compared to other class buffs... any similar concerns out there?

  10. i am afraid they are going to nerf us before 2.0 goes live. mainly , as a MM sniper, i can keep a full rotation, using FT after every other move (or 2 with snipe), and my energy doesn't ever run the risk of running out. with the use of our OFFENSIVE cooldowns, its very easy to never run out of energy, regardless if we're left alone or if someone decides we're a threat to be reckoned with.

     

    SHHH poppycock, (don't tell anyone)

  11. Thanks for the shout-out. Unfortunately I have not been streaming or playing WZs on the PTS for obvious reasons. Ive have been practicing the new MM rotation on dummies and dueling on DK hangar but thats about it. I will deff stream more when bolster is fixed!

     

    HEY its freeman!

     

    Ok so my buddy read on the forums the the stealth is a cone in front of the sniper, the sides are hindered.

    After some testing, the info seems legit.

  12. Yeah I was there for a little bit and was surprised by the amount of people at DK.

     

    I wish I had money to mod swap and all that nonsense. Anyone play around with alacrity yet?

     

    You know I am not quite sure about alacrity, I have been playing my sniper and Marksman has been very promising, crazy burts, 2 second SoS is awsome
