Just to make sure, you are saying this in terms of a scoundrel? This is what the IA is doing to me? TY either way! And as far as the other guy saying thousands of players know how to play, chill bro. Some of us arent that good at this. Looking for help, trying to get better.

Hey OP, First, I am impressed you have kept a cool head with people just flaming you as a reply. Thanks for that. I read the whole thread just shaking my head... Second, I can't help you with your question, but I to can say I get worked to death from some IAs. I am a GS, Sharpshooter, so no major defensive buffs. But I get one coming out of stealth, putting me in stun, get a second big hit, by then I am either stunned again or mezzed, I have trouble remembering, but by the 4th or 5th hit, im done. It makes me mad, I have 3/4 champ gear, rest centurion, but in the end, I don't get 2 shots off. I am trying to L2P against IA, but ****... i don't know what to do. I run around, and bam on my back again, 2 hits to death. I love Alderaan so I can defend, and I have held my own until help comes for every class but IA. GL to you in having someone help you or fill you in on play style. I'll be watching!

Are there any plans to make an incentive for not raising your companions affection? To clarify, there are times I am playing as a character and I am a big ol meany. And I wish to abuse my companion, but then I can not keep their affection up to get their bonuses. I feel like as a dark side player, I should be able to treat my companions meanly but bend them to my will.

The fu*k, it has been almost 2... relax
