Bringing up PVP tests in a thread on these three stats seems kind of moot, since Expertise is the best, or at least I believe the best PVP stat to have for both dmg and healing. That being said I am still sub 50 and really don't care much for PVP stats, but focus more on PVE dmg/dps. Without a combat log, this debate could probably go either way for any of the three stats. I am also inclined to ask if anyone has noticed any real increase in going past 100% accuracy to see if that gives a bigger gain than say power because of the added armor pen it gives. Personally, I plan on running a variety of tests once I do indeed hit 50 but I'm not sure I will have the patience of doing it without some sort of log to review.

I did this questline last night and did not seem to have any issues with it, but then again I'm Darkside IV so I picked all the Darkside options and killed everyone. The Nar Shadda guy doesn't trigger like the rest by just showing up within the proximity of the quest beacon, you actually have to activate his casino table, I kinda wandered around looking for him for a bit and then re read the quest that said to use his table. Not sure if this is what is causing any issues for some but figured since I hadn't seen anyone mention it, I would bring it up.

I would have to say so far, I love my sniper both in PvE and PvP. As for a set rotation yeah Nyth and Invious pretty much have it down and I use a combination of what both have mentioned thus far. With one small exception. I do like to start off using Ambush, just for the sake of starting the Sniper Volley buff and then instant snipe, snipe, followthrough, then an SoS because by the time its over Ambush is back up off CD. But everything is all situational. Multiple groups, I like to destroy one guy off the bat using: Laze - Ambush - Snipe - Snipe - Followthrough - Takedown If the rest are ranged, throw a frag and then SoS one into a Takedown It seems very much dependent on what you are dealing with, there are numerous of situations that you can find yourself in, but using a priority system while leveling probably is the best way to go. Anyone got any good kiting tactics for the larger elites? I typically open up with all the heavy hitting stuff and then when it gets close either blind it, leg shot it or use all defensive CDs like Evasion, Shield Probe and Entrench and pound on it till entrench wears off and then stun it/root it and run away using whatever I can after that. Sometimes I use countermeasures and let the professor tank for a bit.
