Definitely agree to adding an execute! It would make pvp and pve rotations/priorities so much more fun!

Sweet, just applied. I'll be on later tonight. I live in Aus, I see there are a few ppl in the guild who are aswell?

Really cool vid. Subscribed to your channel for future vids. Specifically found your tips re: timing helpful. Ie. Not using stun breaker on the initial knockdown vs. stealth, and popping shield not ling after the knockdown vs Sin's to avoid incoming burst.

Ooooo... Just saw the comps on your site. Look like fun

Gawddamn starmarc... I love it when you end up on my team, hate it when you're on the opposing side.. lol. I am keen to get into some more serious pvp though. What kind of contests do you have planned?

Can't say I agree with anything from the OP. I think SWTOR pvp is much better in balance and fun then WoW ever was. I like constructive feedback like that, I just dont agree.

Those browns look surprisingly cool. Very sci-fi

Great tips. Thanks

I agree, you don't see many around. It's very similar to a guardian in that there is a mix of 10m and 4m abilities. So you can hit fairly hard from 10m range but to use all your abilities you need to go toe to toe. Besides a channeled ability there are no cast times for vanguard DPS. I found levelling quite easy. You have enough tools to control baddies (not as many as guardians) and have some decent defensive cooldowns. As far as an interesting DPS rotation goes, I find tactics ok. I get a little tired of it, but building 3 stacks before blasting out an uninterruptable plasma cannon with >dmg is fun. Also, shoulder cannon is awesome.

ERHMAHGHERD! I've been getting that too! I was going to give my ISP a blast but it sounds like it's the server? A couple of times I've had it drop out at the end of a 40min FP... And byt the time I've logged back in the FP is finished and I dont get the credit. Nerd-rage-extreme.

I can't remember all of it, but I do remember loving the conflict between spoilerspoilerspoiler Anyway, the first 40 levels were really fun with meaningful choices. I think its had some negative feedback because it doesn't end as strong as some of the other classes story lines. Ie. JK.

Holy sh*t. The vanguard holy grail. Thanks ;D

Hang on a minute... I thought 2.4 made the hybrid spec redundant with the buffs to fire pulse etc? Can someone clarify? Also, if you're feeling generous, please post a link to the 2/22/22 hybrid 'highest dps' build. I think I have the build right but would like to confirm. THANKS!

I had a great 4v4 match over thee weekend. 1 win each, on the last round, just me vs a PT. I kept him at distance and stunned, all the while HSM & unloading on him. The victory was very satisfying pewpewpew:csw_blaster::csw_blaster:

Got one yesterday on my Merc.. I'm not gonna lie... It's pretty bad***** ;D

Waaay different. I have a 55 vanguard and a 55 Merc. If your choice is based on survivability, go PT. For Sure! Merc is way more reliant on companions and gear than PT. An undergeared PT with undergeared companions will survive much easier than a Marc IMHO. HOWEVER, play what you think you'll enjoy. Merc has all the tools, you just have to fight a little harder (or maybe PT playstyle just comes more naturally to me...)

You, sir, always provide useful information that I enjoy reading. Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback. Yeh I think I might give pyro another go since it's hitting harder these days. I did have to go heals in the end to get through. Yeh the long way indeed :/

I really want to know what other people’s strategies are for soloing difficult content. I’m used to playing tanky DPS, like vanguard and guardian, so when going to Oricon with my Merc and taking on some of the Elites there in the main solo story arc, I’m having a lot of trouble. The same was with Makeb when I did the last solo mission there. I usually send in Blizz to tank, then throw as much dps as I can at the elite (I'm familiar with the priority rotation for arsenal). I put some heals on Blizz, but he always dies too soon, then I eventually get pummelled even after using all CD’s. I’m not quite as geared on my merc as I was on my guardian, but the difficullty jump feels extreme. Are Merc’s just really hard to solo with? Or do I just need to gear up and l2p? Mainly in partisian and artefact gear. Some 28 reflex augments.

Dear BioWare, Please give KeyboardNinja a job. He's pretty awesome. Thanks.

O I C Thanks for the info guys

Ive noticed that most of the top DPSers 2.4 have all 69 datacrons. Have many of you noticed a big improvement getting them all? Ive only ever gone for the main stat datacrons, thinking the rest werent worth the effort. Thoughts?

Awesome. Great tips.

Awesome tips, thanks

^^^ Well said You can't play a merc like a melee and do well.
