http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#201ZrcMMbMMZcMfRsMkR.2 I was thinking something like this. Its mobile, has no force problems, great procs, survivability. Any errors? I think the old builds took chain lightning when wrath procced it, but now i think this would do well.

I am rolling a sorc and after asking this sage that does insane dps in warzones he said that he rolls 0/17/24. Could someone link a talent tree with what the points should be in for maximum pvp effectiveness? Also, what would be the better spec to start with while leveling? Thanks!

Alot of snipers do it wrong. They really are the anti sent/mara class. I pvpd my gunslinger 20-50, and once you get the experience down, snipers/gs have all the tools to deal with every mara/sent AND their cooldowns. Its a pretty even match up with the advantage sliiiiightly on the sniper side. Both are exquisite pvp classes, and both are hard to do well.

Servers are not located in Australia. In other words noone cares. Go eat some vegemite.

This is not GW2

Outlaw's den needs to be the new pvp hub instead of the fleet. Why? Well its boring sitting on the fleet, outlaw's den has free for all pvp and wz com boxs. With a few changes, i can see this being a very fun change to the game. Changes to consider -Replace the gtn building with, or add a building that is a safe zone right in the middle of the place. Inside this safezone would be GTN terminals, Standard pvp vendor, Class gear pvp vendors, medical station (where you rez), flight path, quick travel. The flight path would automatically be available to 50s. - Make the box respawn time 5-10 mins, since there will be more people cruising the zone. - Maybe add a duel room for 1v1s that is a safe zone for everyone. This would turn into a constant pvp environment instead of just sitting on fleet with your thumb up your rear waiting for qs. Just food for thought, give me some of your ideas.

Tbh as a pvper i like it. It does not attract as much attention, which is nice.

Thats strange because after the merger they seemed to only happen about once a min. Now with the new patch its WAY to frequent.

Ever since the patch i am experiencing frequent lag spikes (every 20 seconds or so ping hits 6000ish then goes back to normal). In warzones, this is gamebreaking. Also, frames seem to randomly drop from time to time. Anyone else having these issues?

I play a gunslinger, and i love when a sniper entrenches. It DOES get them out of cover stance (They cannot use their cover abilities) but they still have the anti cc benefits.

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but what if there was a stat that increased the amount of resolve you gain? This would be a good stat for tanks in pvp. The stat wouldn't add too much, but if you gain enough of this stat, it could help you cap resolve in 1 less minor kb/stun. Heh it could be called resilience jk jk. just a random thought i had. Some would hate the idea, some love. What do you think?

You prob got hit with a smoke canister. The Marksman/Sharpshooter talent that brings you out of cover for 6 seconds.

Does this still get false procs? (Where HiB or railshot is on cooldown, but the talent procs anyways) Just learned about this and do not have the talent to test it yet.

Aside from all the trolls saying that they play juggs and that we are getting buffed.... The good changes are...meh at best. The bad changes (Crash, 30% damage smash being moved to shared tree so marauders can take our best dps spec and do it better, etc) make me wonder.....why? Really, what were they thinking? I was a bit ticked at first, but now after a week to think about it...i am just dumbfounded to what made them think this was a necessary change. To top it all off, no matter how we feel about it, we cannot get any response from them after asking for explanations. I really enjoyed this character this way it is as rage spec. Now....i dunno whats the point if they are gonna keep crippling classes. What are your thoughts fellow juggs? Is the new hybrid spec gonna be the only saving grace? Is rerolling the best option? I dont care about not being FoTM....but i would like to at least be somewhat on par. Right now i think we are just fine compared to the other classes...some even say we need damage buffs but i don't. Now they just decided to fix something that was not broken.

My point was when i made this thread, that we are just as squishy as the pure dps classes in rage spec. If our mitigation was improved (certain stats not being useless in pvp) id be more than happy to keep damage where it is. Oh well, whatever the case may be, the cycle of nerf round robin is gonna start. (ps i spend 50 percent of the time in soresu for guard)

Marcellus/Advisor montague here, of brutality. Sucks alot of our group left ( i miss double operative opening with smooches.) but we are working on getting back in action. Lately been recruiting some new 50s that shown skill in the 40s. I play against you guys solo queue and group queue. In solo queue your premade usually wins because of heals. Its about even win/loss if i have my group facing you. You have good heals and team comp usually, most of us right now are just tryig to get geared/helping fresh 50s gear. On an individual skill level i really have not seen anything special. Ive seen a bunch of your members talk sht in wzs, then i find same person later in ilum and roll them ( not all the time though, no bm gear.) As long as that trash talking does not carry over, we look forward to facing you in ranked. Rumor has it you might be seeing smooches again soon . Oh also slugs or slugz whatever that vanguard's name is, is a bag of female hygeine product.

or to be more exact, effective as other dps classes. If mitigation worked properly i suppose it wouldn't be much of an issue. Ive tried rage and veng. In rage spec, i am doing respectful damage with my smash (4k avg with full cent and 3 piece champ). Yet, it still feels lacking. Guildies wanted me to run a few wz's on my operative i shelved for a while, and i was dropping people with strings of 2-4k crits. A lot more burst. My jugg feels just as squishy as my operative. Now that i am back on my jugg, i feel gimped. I am going to keep gearing him but i hope we get some love by the devs. Veng spec was an awesome change of pace. I was sticking to targets and always doing something. The damage was....meh, but the utility was great. Its a great spec for huttball, but in civil war or void, i wasnt doing much other than being a guard n taunt bot with minimal damage. I rolled the class because it was less "Faceroll", and a hell of a lot more fun than operative. I play my jugg wonderfully, but it does not even have the potential to match some of the dps classes. Now one other point before you criticise me. I understand a class that can switch stance and tank shouldnt do AS MUCH as a pure dps, but look at bounty hunters and troopers. Powertech/vangaurd dps specs are MUCH superior to ours. They feel more tanky, they do more dps, and they have a choice of either range or melee. Im not angry, but i dont feel like i am getting what should be the sith juggernaut. I kind of wish i rolled a maurader. Well, here is hopes we get some tweaking.

Im trying to figure out which adrenal would be best. Surge or power. I was planning to use surge but someone said power was better. Now with the surge nerf, im pretty confused. Assume i have a set of champ gear. What should i use to get the most from smash?

Veng is more of a lvl 50 spec. Try rage and you will do much better as it does not require decent gear

Hey guys, scissors here. Rock is BLATANTLY OVERPOWERED. See they have a buff called mineral deposit that makes them very sturdy. A class should not be able to mitigate that type of damage. Also, to all the people qqing about paper l2p they are ez to counter.

I myself have the epic because it is wireless. Just depends what you prefer. The buttons may seem excessive, but once you get past the learning curve (took me 3 days of regular play) you will wonder how you used to play mmos without one. I have a macro i use to acid blade before hidden strike. -12 is better than 6 by the way, i have my first 6 buttons bound and i use my 10-11-12 buttons for adrenals, relic, medpack. World of difference

Get a naga, you can make macros with the naga software

This is marcellus of anchorhead, and i find republic wins most of their wz's vs empire....just saying.
