  1. I think I'll go with powertech, honestly. While I like my sorc (she's my launch toon), I've never been a fan of madness and that looks like the only spec that actually works well atm.
  2. I just recently (as in... like, 15 minutes ago) to pick up SWTOR again and get into solo-queue arena. The problem lies with the fact that I'm not really sure which class to play. Currently I have a sorc, shadow, commando, and powertech at 55 with an operative and guardian close-ish to 55. I don't have much experience on my commando or powertech in PvP, but I have a pretty thorough amount of experience on my dps sorc and shadow but from what I understand, sorcs are still *really* weak at the moment (which is unfortunate since it's my favorite class). Based off of current class balance, what class would you recommend I use to get back into the game? Thanks!
  3. I just wanted to say that I <3 all of you folk in the Gree PvP area. <3 -Fatmanforever
  4. Iiiiii definitely thought that was all pve stuff. Yay reading comprehension and actually scrolling down the page. x__x Thanks.
  5. I've got a shadow that'll be 55 by the end of the night and I have about 2k ranked wz and capped normal wz comms saved up. But! I haven't really seen much in regards to what set bonuses I should be going with. So, a few questions: 1) Which set bonus should I go with? Full stalker or half stalker half survivor for that delicious 10s off of our opener? 2) Does anybody know of a guide that shows what off-pieces to go for to optimize gear? 3) Other gear suggestions/tip/info is welcome (<-- clearly not a question) Thanks!
  6. I actually didn't leave anything out. o_o The dps even felt bad and sent me some purple 55 gear as an apology for what happened cause he felt bad. =P But ya, I guess acting on people having poor behavior shouldn't happen because a system allows for easy retribution.
  7. Grumbles. Grumbles everywhere. Yet again today we were almost done and the tank (guardian) had been needing on multiple pieces of aim gear that our healer needed (and said so many times in party chat). After another boss was killed and another piece of aim gear was needed on, I initiated a kick. Well, it failed. The other dps stopped the kick because he just wanted to get it done. BUT the tank (the ninja) initiated a kick (because ... revenge kick?) and it was somehow immediately accepted (the dps and healer weren't given an option to vote against it..?) and I was removed from the group near the very end. Being deployed, I have minimal time that I can play during the week and then having it all be wasted when I try to do the daily/weekly is highly frustrating. This vote to kick system is beyond aggravating and I don't get why it is set up the way it is. *SO* frustrating. And just 'ignoring' people isn't a long-term fix. The system shouldn't enable people to be awful. A vote to kick should initiate a vote to kick and you need x votes for it to go through, not "hey you're being kicked now unless people know how to say no'.
  8. This is, honestly, a highly frustrating and pretty terrible system in flashpoints. Yet again today (it isn't the first time this has happened) we were almost done and the tank (guardian) had been needing on multiple pieces of aim gear that our healer needed (and said so many times in party chat). After another boss was killed and another piece of aim gear was needed on, I initiated a kick. Well, it failed. The other dps stopped the kick because he just wanted to get it done. BUT the tank (the ninja) initiated a kick and it was somehow immediately accepted (the dps and healer weren't given an option to vote against it..?) and I was removed from the group near the very end. Being deployed, I have minimal time that I can play during the week and then having it all be wasted when I try to do the daily/weekly is highly frustrating. SO. I suggest that we change the system to require x many votes instead of being auto-accepted unless people say no.
  9. The tank did the initial kick, and idk who did the second vote to kick (does there have to be one..?).
  10. -I did curse previously once, and nothing was said. -I didn't do any weird combination of letters+symbols to bypass the language filters -I got whispers from both of the other individuals who didn't initiate the kick apologizing for the tank being like that -I was being a good healer. -__- I wasn't pulling for the tank, I wasn't attacking CC'd mobs, and I actually hadn't rolled on anything that dropped in that flashpoint. Sooooo, ya. I don't know. I put the tank on ignore but that was still dumb. /annoyedforhours EDIT: The kick system in this game seems pretty... awful. =/ EDIT2: I'm actually deployed atm so the times I get on are limited and the amount of time I have is even more limited which is why this was so frustrating. =P
  11. I get kicked from a group at the very end of a flashpoint (right before we're done for it to count as being done for the daily/weekly) for... saying one curse word? Seriously? And it was me complimenting somebody, too. So the requirements to get kicked from a group = somebody feels like being a dick or is in a bad mood? That's cool.
  12. Does anybody know if server transfers reset dailies/weeklies by chance? I plan on xferring one of my PvE toons to another server soon but I wanted to see if dailies/weeklies reset so I could take advantage of the double xp weekends. Thanks!
  13. Did they not add any new reusables? Looking on different sites, I only see the recipes for all of the rakata stuff along with the new implants. I haven't leveled my biochem from 400 to 450 yet since I didn't see anything that was worth the upgrade. Did I miss something?
  14. I've realized that I can't find any good headpieces that I like for my sorc. I prefer masks that can have the hood pull up over it (the nihilus mask was more than disappointing) but I just can't seem to find any that are either light armor or adaptive armor. Does anybody know of decent light armor masks that can do that? =o Thanks in advance.
  15. Those mats sell well? Hmmmm, I'll have to look into that then. How well does stuff sell from the cartel market (like the packs)? Would it be a better bet to sell the packs as a whole or keep buying packs looking for items that sell well but are rare? Thanks! =o
  16. After being gone for a lengthy amount of time, I realize that 900k credits really isn't that much... so! What are the different ways that people make money in-game now? I know 'dailies' are a big one but I've never been much of a fan, and slicing isn't anywhere near what it used to be. Any advice on the topic would be greatly appreciated!
  17. I just started playing swtor again yesterday and got to 55 today, but I've been out of the loop for a while... so, I have a few questions: 1. Is this build the way to go for solid damage output, control and survivability?: http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#201ZfcbbdRrcRMZcMcRs0z.3 The reason I ask is that while my gear is pretty bad (a lot more battlemaster than I like to admit), it seems kinda... meh. Opinions would be appreciated. 2. Is grinding WZs (and doing the missions for wzs) still the only way to get comms for gear? Is there a semi-quick way to farm up an entire set? Or is it as drawn out as ever? Thanks in advance! EDIT: Also, has anybody tried any full lightning pvp builds? I've always been interested in trying it but it hasn't really been worth while compared to hybrid dps until now. I was looking at something like this, but I have very little experience with pure lightning. =P http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#201hZrsRbkRrcRrsZcM0M.3

    Saving for 1.6

    I didn't think it would be that fast, alright. Thanks for the info. So 2 weeks to get full WH.. ... then why do people complain about the gear gap if its so easy to fix? >___>

    Saving for 1.6

    Is there a semi-fast way to get rwz comms? ...actually, what are all the ways to get them? Daily/weekly, actually doing rated wzs, converting normal to rated, aaand....? Is that it? What way is the fastest?

    Saving for 1.6

    Well, since I have just about no comms outside of wz comms, it looks like I have a long way to go. I'm going to have go google where to get the BH implants/earpiece and hazmat relics (they weren't here the last time I played). Now my question: I've heard a lot of people talk about the 'class datacron'. Have there been updates to datacrons since the game's launch? The stats on the one I got back then (for my sith sorc) -- 56 end, 66 will, 27 crit. Are there datacrons now with better stats?

    Saving for 1.6

    After being gone for roughly ten months and being in (relatively) pathetic gear, I'm currently saving up all the comms I can in order to prep for 1.6 which leads me to two questions: a) Any educated guesses on when 1.6 is coming out so I know how long I have to farm comms? b) What would be the best set-up for the comms I save? capped wz & rated comms where i spend all wz comms, convert rated to wz comms and spend those? or should I cap wz & rated comms and spend only the wz comms on gear and save rated comms? Keep in mind that since I've been gone for so long, my gear is.. the terrible of the terrible. Again, any advice/opinions would be appreciated and thanks in advance!
  22. I saw the 'bioware staff post' symbol next to this thread and I got excited thinking they may have acknowledged sorc issues in pvp. lolnope, no post from bioware. sad times.
  23. Just to follow up on this post... I put in a ticket to see if I could, by any long shot, have the revanite questline chest piece restored (Saber Marshal's Robe) from... something like 11 months ago? Here's the response I got to the ticket: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11/27/2012 - SWTOR CSR: Dear **********, Thank you for contacting us with your restoration request. We have investigated your report and want to let you know that we will restore the Saber Marshal's Robe to your account. Please be advised that we're working on this restoration for you and will restore your item as soon as possible. (Typical chitchat about not needing to put in a 2nd ticket) Kind Regards, (Customer Service Rep's Name) Star Wars: The Old Republic Customer Service ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My mind is pretty much blown and I'm incredibly grateful for this. =o gg bioiware customer support, +1.
  24. Now that I'm actually looking to build my sorc with min/maxing in mind for when 1.6 drops, can anybody give me some guidance on what stats I should be looking at hitting ie crit %, surge %, expertise, power, fpower, etc for a lightning/madness hybrid sorc? Also, which enhancements/mods/armoring would be the most beneficial for a hybrid sorc (so I know what to get on all my crating toons)? ...or is there a site you can point me to that has all this info laid out? =P Thanks!
