I double and triple checked this: when specced into Advanced Prototype on my PT, I do not get the damage boost on my energy and elemental attacks that I am supposed to from having High Energy Gas Cylinder enabled. This started after 4.0 dropped. Can anyone else verify this problem?

I guess I'm one of the few who still prefers Mako and Hk to just about everyone else. I completely dislike Treek. I don't doubt her effectiveness, I just don't ever, ever want to use her.

Ran this yesterday, worked as it should. Make sure you aren't clicking on the same console three times. You have to click each console once.

The last Macrobinoculars mission has a mechanic that requires four players to advance inside the instance.

I never lagged from the chat bubbles, so it never bothered me.

You have to turn it in during the event period. Sounds like you held it for too long.

Alchemy of Evil and All the Pieces are soloable now, if you're in 186 gear at 60. But there is no way through The Shroud's Last Stand or Aurora Cannon without 4, which is, quite frankly, ridiculous.

I'd forgotten how much I missed chat bubbles from SWG until I saw this thread. Thinking back, how do we not have them? What we have now is basically a FPS chat, limited to [Team] for the most part, with a Whisper feature and emotes. SWTOR is a major MMORPG, it should have chat bubbles.

I think just a flat 25% bump would get the job done. So 115% for Rank 1, 125% for Rank 2, and 135% for Rank 3. Rocket Boost becomes 135%. Make speeders unusable on the main level of the fleets, but let Rocket Boost be used. Is my proposed speed increase too conservative?

Which they have acknowledged, and also said they are "comfortable with where DPS is right now". So don't expect it to get fixed anytime soon.

Noticed this in the second CZ-198 FP, when fighting the wraid (the desert environment boss). When you drag him to the sandstorm generators, he stuns you. When you drag him with HO/HtL activated, you keep going, get rubberbanded and stunned, then he casts Rampage too far away from the generator. If you are soloing, that's it. Obviously a proper healer can keep everyone up long enough for Rampage to cast again, but that's not the point here.

I'm having a different issue entirely: My SW, SI, and BH is only offered the Generator, Vibroknife, and Shield. Not much use for Jaesa (or Ashara, for that matter). Same issue for Enemy Within, only the Sniper Rifles,Tech Staffs, Assault Rifles, and Pistols being offered; no sabers.

Necro: where do I find this FPS counter?

BioWare, there are some loyal subscribers who would like this fixed...

Damn, mine didn't get broken until 3.0. It's really been a problem for a while then, hasn't it?

I believe the general consensus is that the expansion introduced some memory leaks, because relogging can temporarily fix the problem, and then performance will steadily degrade at a consistent rate.

Glad someone could verify this.

Just noticed as I was maxing out companion affection, that the bonus for maxing affection and completing all companion quests isn't granting the Legacy bonus for Heroic Moment cooldowns. They remain unchanged, and if someone could verify this, a fix would be nice.

I'll have to check this out, that would be a pretty bad handicap. edit: Forgot about this thread, but after running Pyro for the past 10 days, I can say we are indeed not getting the CD reduction.

I'm still parsing higher on Pyro, but not by much (~100 DPS on a 500K dummie). I'm in full 186 gear at level 60. But I have to say, I much prefer AP. It's a little more RNG, but only having to put one DoT on a target and then pretty much forget it afterwards is nice. Shoulder Cannon is the biggest allure for me, because you can make them a 20m attack that heals you for 35%.

+ 1. For whatever reason, damage dealt from Strong mobs is eclipsing damage done by Elites. I thought maybe that a debuff was being cast on me by them, but it just seems to be a case of things being completely out of whack. This is on Rishii and Yavin, btw.

+ 1. Hope it gets fixed soon, need those comms

The new AP is a simpler rotation and has a great burst rotation. But on the dummies, Pyro is still parsing ~250 DPS higher than AP. I've run both (Lvl 59, almost 60), and Pyro plays like the "Expert" level of BH, while AP seems more like "Intermediate" level play. What I mean here is you really have to know your rotation for Pyro, whereas AP is much more forgiving on mistakes with button presses. Personally? I run AP because I like having an extra layer of defense and SC hits like a truck when you need it, but when I have to go big or go home, I switch over to Pyro.

I still think the simplest fixes would be bumping up HEGC's bonus to elemental damage by 2-4% (making it 3-5%), Blood Tracker by 1.5/3 (making it 3/6%, [Yes, I know, most people want 4/8%, I'm being more conservative, you'll see why]), Having Power Loaders reduce the cooldown of SC by 10/20/30 (Again, I know, most people who have brought it up say 15/30/45), having Prototype Weapons Systems boost RS on top of the other three, and having Unload be buffed by Prototype Flame Thrower (really making it Prototype Bracer, a nice juxtaposition of Power Bracer in Pyro). I think that might resolve most of our issues of DPS. The only thing I can think of for our survivability is having the Energy Redoubt rate limit dropped to 8 seconds and having its chance upped to 12.5/25%. But THAT might be too out there.

Never new this was a bug, I just assumed that this was how the ability was supposed to function. But she's right, on HM Draxus, I only hit the front row of subteroths when they are grouped up, and the farthest is ~7 meters away
