Thanks for the feedback, i will try doing the Heroic Missions see if that will help me out a bit. Also i went and checked my companion stats, the highest rank i have is a 9, but i now see thats out of 50. So i guess that boils down to my companions being really, really weak because of that.
Gear wise i have a lot of orange, but some of it is almost 8 levels behind, so yeah guess im doing Heroics.
