Well, I know what's BiS for a watchman sentinel. It's not like he is a magician and has found something very special I could not have thought about as well. When I compare our logs, I find it not possible. Ok, he could hit for these critical numbers if he would use more surge enhancements instead of accuracy, but then he would miss more on the dummy. But in fact, he has even less misses than me: - I hit the dummy 794 times with a miss % of 8.19 - He hit the dummy 796 times with a miss of only 7.87% So I think he has the same accuracy like me. When he has the same, it is not possible to critically hit for those numbers on Merciless Slash. In my parse, I hit the dummy with Inspiration, Attack Adrenal and Power Surge for less damage. Either I became a total noob or something is indeed wrong with torparse. That's why I want a validation. Never said he is a cheater, but I can't seem to find this possible without 2 stacking power surges. That's all I wanted to point out.

Funny how you get mad about me when I just state the facts that it is impossible to have these numbers as minimum hits. It's easy as I said. You are not using 2 proc relics. If you would use 2 of them, you would have had at least a few times 2 power surges at the same time. But you never had it. Ergo it's not true. (I tested it with 2 proc relics, basically you get power surge all the time cause it ticks from damage AND your passive heal) On top you aren't using any adrenals and your crit damage on Merciless Slash and Master Strike is just way to high. I mean, your 3 stack burn from Overload Saber can't break the 3k line but you can crit with Merciless Slash for 8640 without any adrenal and only one power surge? That's not possible and that's why I want a validation of this. Even in my tests where I used only power and 0 crit I barely came to 8k critical hits on Merciless Slash. And don't act like "this is something for within the guild". This is a public topic and has nothing to do with the guild. If I am mistaken, prove me I am wrong. But since I know my class 100% I know this is not possible without 2 stacking power surges and without an adrenal.

I want a validation of this since it is in my opinion not possible: The critical hits of Merciless Slash are way to high and just not possible. It's like he is using power surge the entire time. In addition the crits are way to much. For reaching so much crit you are losing a lot of power, what means your min hits can't hit for the numbers shown in there. I mean seriously, I reach around 30 dps less and used 2 times the new adrenals and he didn't use a single adrenal and hits 30 more dps? Sorry to say Quanta, but that's obviously a fake. I know you guys wanna beat my dps, but please play fair!

It get's to a point where these guys at BW just look like a big joke... Introducing that new Bolster System was one of the biggest fails. The old bolster system with recruit gear worked pretty well. Never change a running system!

Well yeh, still confusing when you remember that we used to have warhero and elite warhero. Thanks for clearing this up though!

So, there is something that confuses me... For TfB NiM it states: Conquer these nightmarish enemies for a chance to earn a brand new set of Kell Dragon gear, the most powerful PvE gear available, as well as an exclusive “Helix Hyperpod” Vehicle! and for S&V NiM: Defeating the Hutt Cartel’s ruthless mercenaries and beasts will require more coordination than ever before. Put your endurance to the ultimate test in this nightmarish battle. Rewards include a new “Titan 6 Containment Mode” Vehicle and the elite Kell Dragon gear set! So, there are 2 sets coming? Kell Dragon and Elite Kell Dragon? If that's true, it makes actually no sense to run TfB anymore once S&V NiM is available. Why should you go and farm a lower level gear set?! Any word on this, BW?

And that's exactly what they want you to do: Buy them now cause you can't wait. It's just another way to milk their subscribers.

btw, one suggestion to the watchman sentinels/annihilation marauders: I see in your parses that you use double saber throw in your rotation. I made a lot of tests, and what I can say is that it effectively reduce your dps outcome a lot. The reasons are pretty simple: - it is affected by the global cooldown - it is not doing a lot of damage - it doesn't use focus - some will say "it's a free damage ability so it's dumb to not use it" but I have to say the opposite: Due to 4 stacks on merciless, I can spam merciless slash and all my other main damage abilities like hell. In addition, you only gain centering when you use a skill that requires focus. Faster 30 stacks on centering = faster usage of Zen = more autocrits on cauterize burn or overload saber burns. When I use it in my rotation I do around 10-20 dps less. Just wanted to let you all know what I think about it.

Yep. I am just disappointed how BW is treating their loyal customers. I mean, I am here since early access, always stayed subscribed and then they charge me on top for appearance changes and add another gambling pack (dyes). I'm not gonna leave the game, I just don't wanna spend more money on a sub when it feels you don't get any big advantage anymore from new content. I mean, last thing that was for free for subs was section x in November 2012. Everything else was accessible to f2p and subs. Right now I am preparing my account for f2p. Bought nearly all unlocks from the GTN so I will have the same game experience as a sub. If BW decides to honor their loyal customers again, I will resub. But for now I am just disappointed. Still have ~35 days play time remaining.

Made my day! gl though and may the force be with you!

Update: Tman <Outbreak> Character Class: Sentinel Character Spec: Watchman (36/8/2) Torparse Link: http://www.torparse.com/a/256720/time/1369842788/1369843114/0/Overview (2949 dps) Still missing the 72 chest (currently using 69 one) and need to switch one more 69 enhancement on top. Rest is BiS 72. Guess with the missing pieces I can get like 10-15 more dps, but overall there is not much more possible in Watchman. Looks like Snipers/Slingers are way on top. With the 2 proc relics I can go easily above 3k, but since this is obviously a bug I do not use it. Wonder if the Slingers/Snipers on top are using the 2 proc relics?

I'd do the same. Don't like to scam other guys just because they made a silly mistake. It can happen to anyone. Reminds me that I ordered some time ago some color crystals from a guy. I told him he should CoD it to me for 1.3 million. What he did was: He sent me the crystals AND 1.3 million. Directly sent the credits back + another 1.3m as we agreed on. I like to be honest so I don't get a negative reputation.

Run away!

Pretty much this. After 2.1 and that milking on top of my subscription was already the point, where I canceled my sub. They said in the future they will value their subs more, but with today's announcement they just locked down my decision. After you have leveled up all classes, there is nothing to do anymore in this game. I can't even change my appearance for free as a subscriber or get the dye of my desire without another gambling pack. All our concerns when f2p was introduced became true. Sad part is, after the 2.1 disaster they told 2.2 will be a HUGE content update. A nightmare mode for an Ops that is already in game for months and new gear they call huge? I gonna go for at least 4-5 months. Then I resub end of the year to play the new "content" within 1 month and unsub again for the next 4-5 months. There is no need to stay subbed for more than 1 month every 4-6 months.

Well said!

And that's the "huge" content update coming in 2.2? Only Nightmare Mode TfB? You must be kidding me...

So you see Andryah, Legacy Gear IS working as intended. We did not rob BW!

Agree. Rep side is a walk in the park compared to the Imp side.

And that's just crap. Before that collections system I sent over crystals all the time. Now I can't play as I used to play cause I am in danger of getting banned for a feature I use for months? Weird world...

According to this hole mess, I really wonder if I am allowed to do the following: My main character is a sentinel. I bought 2 white-black expertise crystals and 2 white hawkeye crystals. Now, when I decide to have one of each crystal on my Jedi Sage, am I allowed to duplicate the missing 2 ones on my sentinel, as I still own one of the original ones on that char? I mean, I send over 2 original ones and then just duplicate 2 on my sentinel. Should be allowed, don't you think? You see, all that system is a mess where players doesn't know what is allowed and what is not. And keeping quiet about this is the worst BW is actually doing.

But they neither said it is not allowed to use legacy weapons. It could be working as intended as sending them over with legacy gear is another credit sink. Either way, the mistake is 100% up to BW, not the players who have the choice between 2 available features.

That's your opinion. I have a different one. Who is correct on that? There are always 2 sides of a medal.

That's because our guild focus is on PvE, but we play PvP for fun. We have as well some really good PvPers but we play PvP not on a regular basis to build up a rwz team. And some of us played some rwz matches. Ofc we got defeated loads of times, but that's just normal when you play from time to time and against teams that play every evening with a most likely fixed roaster. In the end that doesn't tell, you as a single player are the best of your class, just because you play in a premade team. Overall rwz players perform pretty well, cause they play PvP a lot more often than the casual ones. If I had to name one guy who is really brilliant, even in nwz's it would be a Marauder called Fallenstalker. (dunno if it is the correct spelling). That guy overall has a good overview in wz's.

Well said!
