[Gaming mice recommendations?]

I got the g700 and it is wireless but you can keep it attached by a wire. It has a bad battery life otherwise if you keep it unplugged. Also if you get the g700, logitech software doesn't recognize swtor so you have to bind the keys a little differently. You have to assign all the extra keys to a keyboard stroke (I used F5-11 since they go along with the number on the buttons). Then in swtor you bind whatever ability bar spot you want to the corresponding F# key.

[Thanks for ruining pvp...]

this thread is a bunch of crap, you only get 7 champion commendations from each bag so it takes about 7-18 bags just to get 1 piece of champion gear. Before the patch i opened 8 bags and got 2 pieces, now i've opened 6 more and dont have enough for anything yet. It is not any easier than it was before, the biggest plus is that you can actually pick what you need and not have to throw salt over your right shoulder, find a four leaf clover, and cross your fingers just to get what you need.

[Combat Medic?]

I find its best use is for people on the verge of death in pvp, hit them with BI pop a trauma probe on them then amp->mp. With just amp->mp sometimes they die before you can get the heal off, so yea it can mean the difference between life and death sometimes.

[@ 2.5k heal medal]

the heal has to actually heal for more than 2.5k. For example if you have 11k/12k hp and your heal says 3100, you only actually healed for 1000 of the 3100 thus not giving the 2.5k medal

[EV 8 man vs EV 16 man Normal]

Fire dots should be cleansed away, commando combat medics can get rid of it not sure about sages cleansing ability though.

[Give me a real interrupt. Now. I'm dead serious.]

if it makes you feel any better i dont have an inturrupt at all other than 1 stun and 1 knockback.

[I have to ask]

it takes about 120 hours of play time to reach 50, if you really hustled through everything maybe 100 hours. Counting pre-release time you have about 45 days since you started playing so 120/45= 2.666667 or 2hr40min a day, every day. Throw in a couple days where you play longer than that and its very feasable for a casual gamer to reach 50 by now.

[When does CM healing become easier?]

If you go straight up the combat medic tree i'd say low 30's you'd have all your main heals and abilities. Coming from a sage you may feel a bit underpowered, combat medics are good at sustained burst healing. You can heal for days with proper ammo management.

[Field Aid Question]

Easy question, does field aid remove CC from an ally? I keep forgetting to try myself, and obviously can't use it on myself. I'd go test this, but unfortunately i'm working.

[Combat Medic Hammershot]

if it chained one of two things would happen:

1. healing lets say up to 3 people for free would make it op so they wouldn't do it or

2. When it chains to a 2nd and 3rd person it has diminishing returns and since it heals for only a little bit the others it chained to would receive meaningless amounts of heal.

 

I like the idea but I don't see a way it would happen.

[Should i use hammer shot while Commando healing in Warzones??]

Rarely do i use it, there are just better skills to use and the big giant kill me laser does more harm then good. I generally only use it on voidstar when running from objective to objective to buff people up a little bit, along with kolto bombs. Staying as hidden and incognito as possible lets you deliver much more healing power.

[Are there any naming restrictions in this game?]

Seriously just saw i guy running around whose name was ****punt, the first word starts with a C, rhymes with second half, and is another name for female genitalia. I mean seriously?

[Do other toons lay as much Pipe as the Smuggler?]

ahahah i totally agree, I now have a 25 slinger and 25 guardian and the smuggler has had sooooo many more flirt options. I made a chick smuggler and every single npc dude hits on her.

[Confused about alacrity]

Like the title says I'm a little confused about alacrity. The info i've found on it describes it as haste but I'm wondering what it actually speeds up. Does it decrease casting time or does it decrease the cooldown time? or possibly both? I know most people are probably still too low of a level to get a significant amount of alacrity to test it, but any info would be nice.
