I have never played a MMO that didn't have server boards. Community is half the fun of a MMO. General community? I don't give a crap about the sea of QQing babies on this form, i want to talk with my allies and enemies on my specific server.

Yea, sometimes I'm lazy and just open with Force Slow. Our class has stealth and that's why I picked it. I don't mind at all that it's not 100% necessary to function. It's just a huge advantage for positioning and world PvP.

In world PvP it will knock people off their Rascal as they are cruising by you. At least that's one use. Don't have to blow electrocute to make sure you stop them.

I don't think you are doing it right. Forget Khem, start gearing Andro. When you fight multi mobs that aren't all drods, turn his 2 aoe shots off so you can use Mind Trap (do this in world pvp so you can trap their companion as well easy 2v1). Double DPS works much better as deception than trying to have Khem tank. Andro downs stuff so much faster. Keep Surging charge up and use all your interrupt (Jolt, overload, low slash, electrocute) abilities to stop charge up abilities. For elites, make Andro attack first. Only use your interrupt abilities to stop their big attack until Andro is down to about half. Start in on the elite with all you got, if you don't pull agro before Andro is at about 10% use one of your taunts. Use your defensive CD's and you should end up keeping agro and killing it no problem. If they swap back to Andro, use your aoe taunt. You should never need to use Dark Charge as full deception. The key really is to use Jolt all the time along with your other interrupts at the correct time.

Ehh.. no we don't need a teleport. That's the entire point of stealth. Use it to position yourself.. or use force speed if you have to.

Having a blast as a 39 assassin on Hoth. As far as world PvP goes I think we are pretty damn good. No problems killing people 3 levels higher even killing them when they get the jump because we can reset so easy (yay force shroud/cloak). It almost seems unfair.. we can pick our fights, we can CC their companions with ease and just DPS them down. All the while stopping almost any ability with a cast time. I'm deception and walk around with Adnro with AoE turned off for PvP. Save the 20min CD for people you really want to beat.. double stun every 20min... Always CC their companion, whirlwind them when they come out of Mind Trap or if you can't get MT off. It's really almost unfair.

I like playing Blackjack. That's RNG. RNG is fun for some people. It's really fun when it rolls in your favor. If you want a PvP system that "rewards you for your skill level" well, this is not that game obviously.

Everyone has their idea for a system they would like for PvP rewards. I like games where you drop everything you have and it gets looted by the person who kills you. Am I on here crying about this game not having that system? No, I'm playing the game to have fun. If you aren't having fun just PvPing in general and you are only doing it to get some piece of gear then the game has failed you already so maybe it's not the right game?

Funny that I've been world PvPing for fun with zero reward at all. I'd love to have some good ol RNG rewards. Stop crying and PvP for the sake of PvP. Gear rewards for PvP is a fail system in general anyway but oh well.

Deception has no problem with 2 strong mobs you just need to use more tricks and make sure you CC one of them and kill them one at a time.

True.. not useful aside from the melee only ones like those lizards and junk.

Does Force Slow work on golds? For some reason I've only used that in PvP so far. If it does.. I'd imagine anything would be a cakewalk with enough room with Andro and just kiting with Force Slow/Speed and the two taunts.

Yea, as deception I find myself staring at my own buffbar more than anything else.. all depends on what buffs you have up.

Na we are not terrible at all. I can't speak at all for Madness though. I've been leveling as Deception and can kill full blown yellow elites even +1 with not too much problem. You need to be able to swap agro with Khem. I'm 34 and you are higher so you should have both taunts (mind control and mass mind control or whatever). Usually you only need the single target one. Let Khem get down to about 15% then hit that and keep agro. Usually you can down an elite in that time. For the adds, make use of your your Mind Trap ability to CC one. Usually the hardest one and finish the little guys first then wait for full force and start on the harder one. Of course save electrocute for the hard guys and don't forget your 20min cool down for the especially tough fights (world quest bosses etc). In situations where you need mind trap make sure you manually turn off Khem's 2 aoe abilities or he will break your CCed target. One of them annoyingly resets every time you get on your Rascal or zone or whatever. Lately I've been using Andro in DPS mode to kill elites as well. I sick him on the mob, let him run a full round of abilities, by then he's probaly at about 50% health and you start in on the mob. When he gets down to 10% Mind Control and you should hold agro for the rest of the time, use your 50% defense buff and Andros DPS is so high that you will easily down the mob before you die.

Later you get Force Shroud which you can use in those situations before you cloak if you have a dot or if someone is about to hit you with a ranged ability. I haven't tested it with a rock in mid air but it should let you resist that spell and stay in stealth due to the force resist side of it.
