I agree with all of you. When I but a new pack, it's because I want items out of THE NEW PACK. The entire idea of getting two chances at old things INSTEAD is abhorrent to this, and it happened more than once in the hypercrate I bought. BW, if you offer new stuff, and we buy new stuff, has it not occurred to you that we might want to receive THE NEW STUFF? If you want to offer "grand chance cubes", which are cool I admit, do so as you have done so in the past: by letting us buy a grand chance cube off the cartel market intentionally (as a grand pack). Additionally, get the bronze items out of the grand chance cubes. No one, and I mean NO ONE, wants to pay top dollar for 2 random items that we didn't want years ago, either, much less now. Just take the top armor sets in the game, maybe 2 dozen of them, create a chance cube with those on a random roll, and charge accordingly for each pack. We'd happily buy them. Release new packs full of new items, and we'll pay accordingly for them. This bait and switch, however, is bull, and you're pissing us off.

Thank you all. I have a lot of reading to do. Your assistance is appreciated!

Ok, I've read the mean mitigation thread, I know how the theory crafting says to spread the stats on a Jugg tank with a lot of stacked defense stat, do not refer me there. Thank you. Now, has anyone tried using the Jugg's ability to get a lot of "bang for buck" out of the shield stat to mitigate with low defense/high shield/high absorb, much like a PT or Sin tank do? What kind of results did you get? What are the drawbacks/advantages, if any? I'm rather curious about this and wonder if it would give a very smooth damage received profile, unlike the typical Jugg spikiness, or if it's just a disaster? Thanks for all help! EDIT to add: This is for PVE exclusively, tactical/hard mode flashpoints and SM entry-level raiding.

I really only have 1 wish: pull jet charge out of the tank tree, and make it a utility.

Ya, I've had the same problem.

When 1.2 goes live on Thursday, will we be getting anything for our now useless centurion and champion commendations? Or do they just disappear or become un-spendable junk?
