Since Those 2 abilities are situational i would assume, Force Charge - Savage Kick (enemy 1) - Smash - Pommel Strike (enemy 2) for 2 of the weak/norm mobs then use regular rotation for elite/champion mobs. This is at least what I do. Both skills are non factors in PVP anyway so it doesn't matter there either. at 48, Pommel Strike and Savage kick can crit for around 3k with average gear so its a simple 1 shot on weak/norm mobs.

Is it just me or is your Annihilation spec unfinished in your post? I see only 38 points used. This is what i'm doing so far. http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#100bIbRrkMfGzZhMr.1

Just read your Annihilation spec guide and i'm pretty much 99% in line with what you wrote which is some nice confirmation that what were doing is likely right. I've had alot of good success with this build so far and its shaping up to be my main spec going forward (for PVE Content). (ive been building up to the final talents and skills with annihilation since 20ish now that i'm at 48 and almost done acquiring these abilities its good to know i won't have to respec unless things change drastically). Nice guide man.

Level 48 atm moment and I'm pretty sure I've been pretty awesome up until this moment. Oh and we already knew marauder was gear and skill dependent....

Good question, hopefully Bioware gets on this quickly.

Naga owner and lover, picked it up when I was playing rift and now can't live without it .

That is unfortunate, buy lots of medpacs and stims

If he's doing quests he's likely replacing gear as fast as he gets it, mods and orange gear might not be as important as it can be later in the game. (i'm of course assuming he is in fact updating gear with quest rewards or purchases from galactic trade). I didn't start modding till after 35ish but thats just me..

Sentinel's and Marauders just have it harder when it comes to fighting mobs at the same level range. Gear is very important for stat bonuses such as endurance/Str and armor. Those 3 things will keep us alive more than anything for the encounters that require little to no effort from other classes. We have virtually no heals aside from our Bleed/Burn dot heals and our healing companion and we wear Medium armor with no shields or defensive bonuses aside from Shi-CHo 3% mitigation from damage (which your likely not going to be using if your in the watchmen spec). if you can manage to stay geared and 1-2 levels ahead of your enemies you should be fine. I'm at 48 right now i've used my healer since i got him around level 20 something and doesn't look like i'll stop when it comes to solo content. I have pretty decent gear now so fighting mobs at my level isn't as much an issue as it was in the past. sucks to be Jedi Knight/Sith Warrior DPS class right now but its manageable and it does get better with time.

Sentinal is the medium armor squishy class, I'm a Marauder so i'm in the same boat as you. It now comes down to Companion choice as well as playstyle. I'm not going to lie to you but if you have a healing companion (which i'm assuming you do however i'm not sure if you get yours in the same order that Marauders do) now is the time to be using it if your not life is going to be very difficult Another option for you is to spec into your burn tree (Watchmen) This is going to help with some survivability because of the heal associated with Burns. (same as Annihilation spec for Marauders) Hope this helps (If you don't have a healing companion life will get much easier when you do get him).

I use a Razer Naga, great mouse, can't seem to live without the 1-12 buttons on the side now, I can't imagine doing anything else either.

Do space missions they give a great deal of XP as well. What level are you and what level mobs are you fighting? What class as well.

If you have a single account then the answer is no. If you have 2 accounts and 2 computers the answer is yes. Your account entitles you to multiple characters however it doesn't not allow them or you to be logged into the same account on multiple systems at the same time.

Do you think your underleveled? Possibly under geared? Is your companion geared as well? Are you taking on more than you can handle? I arrived on Tatooine over leveled without having ground out any levels or doing space missions / Flashpoints you may require more time on the previous planet.

Thats cool. although i'm not sure thats accurate.

cuz level 3-5 gear is really cheap and helps a bit, i dunno.

haven't logged in yet, however the general concesus is no.

Read the post . It's obviously a content update coupled with bug fixes and updates. If its buggy they will continue to tweak it until people stop complaining. Enough said.

You all did see that they announced the completion and expansion of that particular raid right? Part of the upcoming content patch bundled with new flashpoints and war zones.

Isn't it because the more corrupt you become the more pale you get? i could be wrong.

Star Wars - not Star Trek, its about the story Experience not boldly going where no man has gone before

no it should not.

If you look at the PVP vendor there is a nice Black Hooded robe for Level 40 Marauders (its Medium Str/End Gear 500 Armor etc. Not too shabby.

its not in the game, maybe later on.

Anyone else disappointed by the Digi Deluxe / CE items. STAP speeder, Really? you still have to buy the 40,000 credit License to Drive the thing... I feel a bit ripped off by that fact. (an equivalent speeder is 8,000 Credits) *Yes I understand you can't buy the STAP from a vendor.
