Honestly haven't noticed this myself.

Thats what caught me off guard a bit, I love my leg shot. I'll have to give it a try.

For me its more of a "OH SH&*!" ability. May seem pointless but you'll miss it next time someones in your face and you don't have it. And slapping it on someone running across the flame vents in huttball is always good for a cheap laugh.

Hmm, dumb question but would you mind sharing what specifically your putting into the MM tree? The other 2 are obvious but I see a couple of different ways I could go in the other.

The lack of dual spec'ing is killing me, I thoroughly enjoy both the PvP and the PvE aspects of the game, but respec'ing is murder to keep doing on the wallet, combine that with recently picking up Biochem/analysis to get my stims. Love lethality for PvP, though it is hit or miss (pends on how many people are smart enough to purge, from what I can tell) But from what I've experimented with that spec is just horrid for PvE due to how fast I loose steam using it. Any help is appreciated.

The high ground idea honestly seems pretty legit.

I get where everyone here is coming from, but people have the right to complain about HM bugs that have been an issue for a while and never really got fixed and were claimed to have been resolved. Having said that, I'll agree 85% of the complaints (mostly PvP oriented) are either trolls or just idiots.

..what was the reasoning for nerfing surge to begin with?

Since we can't multiclass (I really hope they change that...) I was wondering if there are any feasible builds out there that allow us to hold our own in both PvP and PvE. Right now I'm MM, and as much as I love it, I don't feel all that effective in warzones. I'm usually pretty high in the damage area but that doesn't get points on the board for huttball. The shield ability whose name escapes me right now is pretty handy for holding a turret/defending a door when your team know to fight inside it, but other then that I feel pretty ... noncontributing. I find my self purposely bursting on those already near-death. I hear leth is as good as it gets for PvP, but how is it in PvE? Ill be honest, I havn't tried it but on paper doesn't look very good to me.
