  1. depending on what you wanna do

     

    power proc and power click (for raids such as terror from beyond and darvannis, so you can use it together with inspiration and high burst phases)

     

    for all around dmg proc and power proc

     

    There is a thread on the bug reports forum that explains that the damage proc and power proc relics don't stack (and is apparently working as intended). So that would be a bad combo. If you were only to use pve relics that would leave one of the proc relics and the power click as your only option.

  2. The most obvious thing wrong is you're reapplying cauterize too soon. Opener should be:

     

    Leap>Overload Saber>Zealous Strike>Cauterize>Merciless Slash>Master Strike>Cauterize (if procced)

     

    Since cauterize does not stack you need to wait 3 global cooldowns before you reapply or you will clip off the damage from your first application. Also I would probably get accuracy closer to 100.

  3. You can be underleveled and do most of the side quests and bonus missions and even some bonus series. This happened to me but with another character it didn't. I think the main difference was I wasn't accumulating much rest XP and I wasn't using those +25% experience boosters (which didn't exist back then).
  4. Because Slash should only be around 10-13% of your dps... Slash is just there for the occasional centering stacks and 33% refresh on Cauterize.

     

    Also, if you're taking Swift Slash, that means you're not taking Defensive Roll, and if you're attempting Denova hard without Defensive Roll, you're doing it wrong.

     

    I don't know if Defensive forms or Swift Slash is better for dps in denova. It depends on how frequently you take damage in the fight (probably DF good for toth and zorn, bad for Kephess). Defensive roll is not a requirement. Probably useful for newbies to hm denova but once you know what you are doing it can be easily discarded for something else

  5. I leveled an alt completely solo, no flashpoints or pvp. With the class mission xp perks (which won't help you much), I had to do almost every quest +bonus objectives on every planet (excluding heroics) and a few bonus mission series and I was still 2-3 levels under the entire way.
  6. More of a priority system, this is mine.

     

    Merciless slash (when merciless is about to wear off)

    Overload saber (instant so should be top priority)

    Zen

    Dispatch (high damage per focus when have set bonus)

    Cauterize (before merciless slash so m slash can proc cauterize)

    Merciless Slash

    Master Strike

    Zealous strike

    Force Leap

    Strike if around 4 or less focus

    Slash if around 6 or more focus (strike and slash also depend on when other focus builders are getting off cooldown)

     

    You open with leap > overload saber > zealous strike > cauterize > merciless slash > master strike. Then the priority system, make sure you don't apply cauterize till the last one wore off, it lasts 6 seconds so looking at the opening combo above it can be reapplied right after master strike if merciless slash ended its cooldown.

    You should always be in juyo form.

  7. Yeah I said I was getting margins of at least 250k. Not sell price. I started selling them at 780k but sales slowed and have since dropped the price gradually to around 520k (which is a 300k profit currently after buying all the mats).
  8. I RE'd an advanced adept enhancment lev 26, selling one or two a day at margins of greater than 250k. Other than that, I don't do anything with artifice, other than sell a few gormak inhibitors i stockpiled up on a while ago every now and then.
  9. Defensive forms gives a 4% internal and elemental damage reduction for juyo, not that vital. There is a bit of a lull in the fourth and fifth tiers after you get repelling blows and close quarters. Watchguard, focused leap, force fade aren't that great and mind sear will be more useful later when he gets merciless slash so it could be worth it to get dual wield mastery at level 28 then respec when he has enough points to get to plasma blades in the 6th tier.
  10. I'm not sure about your priority system. Mine would be something like this

     

    Merciless slash (when merciless is about to wear off)

    Overload saber (instant so should be top priority)

    Zen

    Dispatch (high damage per focus when have set bonus)

    Cauterize (before merciless slash so m slash can proc cauterize)

    Merciless Slash

    Zealous Strike

    Master Strike (being a 3 sec channel i'd probably top up focus with zealous strike first)

    Force Leap

    Strike if around 4 or less focus

    Slash if around 6 or more focus (strike and slash also depend on when other focus builders are getting off cooldown)

     

    And I don't use blade storm as it is too costly though i could see someone using it to lengthen the duration of overload saber.

     

    Also I think your accuracy is way too high. From what I read you get it to 100%, this way your special attacks are 110% (which is like everything but strike) and with op bosses 10% defense you don't miss. Then you go for 28-30% crit, and 70-75% surge, then you can stack power.

  11. Use awe and then rebuke when you land, this gives you 6 seconds with just one of the silvers attacking you. Then when he is down pacifiy the strong, kill the other silver and if you are still in trouble you have several cooldowns like force stasis, saber ward, guarded by the force if necessary. Also use doc for this, i put him on medwatch and turn off carbonized stream to get more heals.

     

    Being too lazy myself to kill all the mobs, I pop force camo and free the first 2 sets of hostages from stealth, destroying the cannister as well and run out of the area if i draw aggro and come back in. If you do this you can stealth past the first champ, clear the other mobs, except for the second champ, who you stealth up to, free the hostage/destroy cannister run to the first champ and destroy the cannister and then get out of there. Bit of a time saver.
