I agree the cap should be increased. I really don't see the value in keeping it at 1 after all this time. Please increase the limit

FOTM: Vanguard/Powertech Lately I've noticed a lot more Vanguards/Powertechs.

This seems to be confirming my theory about Sorcs . . . .

I should have clarified, Survivability I think scoundrels/ops are fine. But the amount of healing they can output comparitively is what I'm speaking too.

Heh, Assassins I have the least experience with. But If I were to put it "IMO" I'd say in the middle too. I'll edit above

So I'm only commenting on what I've seen. I'm a long time PvPer, I knew how to get great damage. But it seems to me that Sage/Sorcs seem to be topping the Damage charts way easier. I have an Operative and Jug at 60 I'm currently PvPing with, but I've played with all classes to 55. Operative's I've noticed the biggest nerf. From what I've noticed 2.0 to 3.0: Damage: Flavor of the Month: Powertechs/Vanguards + Sorcs/Sages Medium: Juggs/Guardians, Marauder/Sentinel, Commando/BH, Assassins/Shadow Underpowered - Operatives/Scoundrels, Snipers/Gunslingers (?) Healing: BH/Commando > Sage/Sorc > Op (stolen from another thread, but agree) This isn't a "Waaaabulance, my current class sucks and everyone else is to blame nerf" thread. I'm honestly curious if more people than I are noticing this. I'm humble enough to admit that it could just be me. =)

I'm aware it was an issue, and I'm glad they fixed it. However, I am disappointed that having 'No" Augment, yields me better stats than having the "Best" Augement

Just to add to the Bolster Rant: I noticed something else on Augments. I socketted some nice purple level 58 augments yesterday. (I did it while in the WZ so I could see the change). . . Low and behold! My stats went down!! LOL, GJ Bioware. I'm really tired of this ****. I'd be better off not even trying to get better gear. Open World PvP is the only reason I'd say its worth it to get better PvP Gear at this point. . . In the Warzone, I was in full T1 PvP Gear and got 55.54% Damage Boost from Expertise. Sure you can get T2 to raise it 4.5% but really, is the effort worth the reward?

Ebon Hawk, Just got back in for 10 seconds, only to lose connection again. It's possible its a DDOS Attack. If it were a server issue, things would either be down, or not down. If it were a CPU/RAM issue on the server, it would run very slowly once loaded (server lag). Signs point to network issue -Knickers

It could just be the mass amount of players trying to log back in.

Yep, it was a Mass DC, Very slow logging back in, not even at the Char select screen yet

lol I JUST say the post they made recently. . Oii, Bad post on my part

So, been away from game about 9 months. I remember during Rise of the Hutt, they turned reset everyones comms to planetary comms. I think at that time they were restructuring the Commendation types. With the new expansion, will we likely see this again? (Same with Ranked WZ Comes) . . . Any confirmation that they are going to do this? How are you all spending or saving your coms. Thanks, Knickers

Shout out to all the old names I still see in GSF after my long absence. A lot of good players have developed since the first few months of release.

Howdy all, Knickers returning after about 9 months away. I look forward to fighting you all again. Thanks, Knickers (imp)/Snickers (pub)

Heh, I don't have to run fast when defending a Sat that you came to attack. . . I just have to "Out turn" you. . which doesn't require the massive boosting capability given by the default scout. Plus when sat humping. . . you get brief windows in which to hit a target you are following. . .This is why Burst is better. " Once you are shooting my turret or my friends, you can bet that unless you run fast, I will have enough time to strip at least 50% of your HP. You survive? I don't mind, you die later, thanks for assist." Gotta love distortion field for those moments when I do have to focus on your friends instead of dodging you. Plus Turrets die in 1-2 shot for a burst cannon with armor ignore. If you try to get a cluster lock on me. . you will probably get it. . .but for what. . . 60-90 hull damage? 240-360 with Bypass? Second. . "You die later, thanks for the assist". . . so this is what I meant. . . You can't really finish the job, Stings/Flashfires can. i won't try to convince you further though, I suppose if you enjoy it that's all the really matters. *Edit* I'm assuming we are still talking about the two ships usefulness in terms of the game objective. And not just wide open space dog fighting (more often than not, not helpful for Domination, just fun)

Flashfire/sting get rocket pods. . . (Which you realize can be negated by evasion, yes?) And as much as you love your laser cannons, they are equal, if not less in comparison to Burst Cannon.

Guerrila eh? I'd love to fight against you. You get my shields down and run off. . . . My shields regen. . . Plus it gives my friends time to come to my aide. You aren't really accomplishing much. . . It's better to kill your enemy fast It's all about damage . . Kill your enemy as quickly as possible.

OP was right, Default Scout needs love. There is no reason to play this class. Yes, you have the longest sustained boosting ability in the game. But you aren't the quickest or best turner (you equal out with the sting/flashfire). . . . What's the point of being able to boost all over the map if you can't do anything (damage) once you get there? I suppose you just hope that the node is unguarded and stays unguarded the entire time. . . . I suppose if an enemy shows up you can always just run away and not be caught. But if all you are doing is running away. . . doesn't that mean you wasted time in a failed cap? I can't see any situation where I'd pick a Blackbolt over a Flashfire. This is just for my playstyle though, I suppose if you just wanna be wingman it'd be useful. . . but I'd personally rather have another heavy hitter than a backup scout doing less damage.

Ebon Hawk Peeps who think the Flashfire is OP. Run a Flashfire, and Ill run a different ship. . . and I'll win over you more often than not Lesson to remember: Every ship has a counter build against it. Even the Sting/Flashfire

I'll see if I can set something up, It will probably be a time that some can attend, but I can't promise it will be friendly to all. I will post a new thread when we have a Time and Location. (As well as who plays imp/pubs)

It's not really the fact that "Switching" out components is good or bad, I'm just trying to avoid the gap of points. I'd say that we should all stay "Base ships, as is, 0 upgrades". . . Otherwise we'd be requiring more people to have to "play a little first" in order to have this tournament. I would worry it would deter some. Of course this is all on the honors system, lol, no way to really enforce it. What I was thinking was, a server would be chosen at random 15 mins before the tournament to avoid any prep. We might not fly as good as we normally do with the system's we are use too, but I think we'd all be at a disadvantage, yea? ( I love challenges and handicaping myself =p, lets me know how good or bad I really am)

I played a game at like 4am. . . Was a decent game as well because we came back from 200 points behind. I vote this game as "Most carried by a single player"

BTW All, I put out a feeler thread, suggesting a challenge to the "POT5" crew. If you are interested post your thoughts. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=712618

I play on Ebon Hawk, and I've noticed that a lot of the forum activity seems to be Ebon Hawk Players, as well as POT5 players. This is a feeler thread to determine interest: Are the POT5 Aces and Ebon Hawk Aces interested a little friendly challenge? It would most likely be an organized event, in which we both create new toons on a neutral server and Queue with level 0 ships. And then battle to determine if either of us are better. =) ((I love competition, as long as its in good spirits and fun)) P.S. Of course I understand if the POT5 players aren't interested. Ebon Hawk would just faceroll them. Since they are use to rolling over newbies with their uber upgrades *cheeky* ;P
