yep my bad too on this one...non crit salv 600...crit 1100...dunno where my head was at then....must have been the old caught a fish <-------------------this---------------------> big adáge.

A lot of people are freaking out in APAC about these transfers that are coming. Are complaining there has been no communication about guilds etc. I found a wealth of information just below the surface of the star wars customer service tab... all answers are contained here...type in server transfers... http://www.swtor.com/support/helpcenter

Tbh I subbed out all my power gear for crit. Now I have a full set of 162 rated gear with about 4 pieces with power or crit augments and am finding healing easy Enuff. I crit on average about 3 out of 4 ticks of healing trance. Frequently drop 7 or 8k deliverances. Salvation ticks at around 850 and 1400 on crit. I am finding crit to be far more effective than when I had all power gear. Healed our tank through numerous enraged bosses in HM FP and 55 Ops when the rest of the raid had perished minutes ago healed a dps shadow through Gargath fight the other day... Crit seems ok to me for now...

Once again great work dulfy! Question if you use a combo like black/red could you then use a secondary to make the red say dark yellow? Will the secondary only be replaced or will it take up the entire dye slot? Really wanna look like scorpion.

Ok I would like to suggest a cross faction bounty board, where a player could put a bounty on other players from either faction. Like a person who perhaps killed you sneakily in on world PVP, or a person who kicked you from a flash point etc. have the bounties paid in credits or items and have titles awarded for certain numbers of completions. Next thing, I suggest you make the casino on Nar Shaddaa actually functional, PVP pazaak, slot machines, pod racing championships, reward with credits and weekly jackpots of super rare items, speeders, etc. Again award titles for a certain amount of wins/losses/credits spent etc. This could bring a whole new area of gameplay, pod racer purchases from cartel market, pod racing parts schematics and Pazaak cards to be found in game from crew skill missions, Namely investigation cause atm it has little to no use. Parts crafting could be a nice way to bolster server economies.

So it seems to me the majority of Apac are moving to The Harbinger. As it stands our guild Mud Dogs are proposing the same. Now the crux if the issue, The Harbinger is already having significant over population and stability issues. They are experiencing massive server wide lag spikes making PVP and Operations unbearable and untenable for some players. And this is for Americans, how bad is it going to be for us? The other issue is that people are experiencing 20 minute or longer waits in ques merely to get in, which is then followed by constant disconnection issues and weekly downtime for unscheduled server maintainance. This as far as I am concerned is definately not an improvement, as a father with a full time job, half an hour per night to log in is potentially 1/4 of my game time each night. I am looking into Bastion and Begeren County as possible alternatives, and would advise all people considering The Harbinger to do the same. As I see it if we all were to go to either of these two the population "issues" we have had in Apac would be negated minus all the problems being experienced on harbinger. Really I am looking for a tidal shift away from harbinger, in solidarity. What are people's thoughts on this?

I have been looking into what server would best suit me for the upcoming transfer from Apac... As it stands Harbinger is the choice of most Apac guilds and the majority of the Apac community. But it seems to me that the harbinger has already got issues with over-population, weekly downtime due to this and has already got 20 minute ques to even get onto the server, this I forsee getting worse with the Apac community heading there en masse. Can you good people of Begeren tell me about the community here on your Rp server. The state of the GTN, end game HMFP, 8 and 16 man HM and NIM Ops and although I don't consider myself a good Pvper I do like to run them for dailies etc. How healthy is your community? And how many people would be on in Apac prime time? Which is essentially the beggining of your off peak times? Thanks

As far as I've seen, I'm in full coloumi gear, and starting with weaken mind on an enemy, a cast of turbulence does an instant crit and with the crit I get a chance for a second cast, which then gives me chance to insta cast TK wave which also has a chance to double cast. I am finding that u can easily do 7K+ damage in the first 5 seconds of an encounter. Am wiping out the black hole trash mobs in less than 30 seconds. In Wz the other night I took down jugs and marauders with ease. As long as I had force barrier up B4 initial contact, I was unbeatable for the first time ever. So far I am more than pleased with the changes.

I'll be there!

In light of the recent announcement, this thread is for the mud dogs (pub) and brotherhood of darkness (Imp) members to keep track of one another. When the transfers come we will potentially loose our guild names and character names. So if and when this happens update your details here so we can keep track of who's who in order to stay together, that is those of us who continue playing SWTOR after this bitterly disappointing decision.

I would love to see, for those sages and sorcerers who use only force powers, mainhand adaptable items. I am Invisaging lighting crackling between the main hands fingers of a sorc.... Or a glowing clenched fist for sages... In the color of the crystal inside.... Fully customisable like a "stat stick"... Maybe no hilt but another slot for an enhancement or mod instead...

Yep he one shotted me this morning... Was like "ok I'm Lvl 47 I should be ok..." Dished out maybe 10k dmg and was healing up qyzen then boom...dead 28k dmg...

Save it for skill purchase, I'm at level 44 and the skill upgrades are now 25k each, I find myself short on funds often, oranges are good but the down side is having to craft or but upgrades for them every few Levels. Am wondering if you might be better off just using item that drop. You will be lower on stats but better off credit wise.

You need to boost your crit. Chance, power and alacrity. I find keeping op members shields up and refreshing as soon as they drop off, this helps tremendously for keeping the dps of enemies at a manageable level for heals to keep up with. Apart from that I put my heal over time on the guy drawing aggro whether he needs it or not. So when the burst does inevitably come, they already have a healing effect on them. This can make the difference between them dying or just pull through long enough for you to put an instant heal or channeled heal on them. That's about it really. Crits on heals is also a big factor. I haven't hit end game yet and I don't have my aoe heal yet so I can't go into detail there. Hope this helps.

Does anyone remember the Role playing thread on the Star Wars website...? It was a bustling group of avid Star Wars fans, role playing and text adventuring every night during the time when the prequels were released. Do any of you play swtor? I uses to Rp Tyrael Hodah, Cypher Hodah, Loki Anor, Yamoch. Kiejin Blade? Amanda Palpatine, the group of American who used to Rp as a pyro kinetic family? Sound off...

Play station Star Wars episode 1 : the phantom menace Star Wars episode 1 : Jedi power battles ( to date memorably the most fun SW game and wish they would bring something out just like this with the entire story arc of the movies and clone wars.)

Have set all other games aside since I've come back, I am a SW junkie... Bookshelves full from rogue squadron through to fate of the Jedi... Am building a lightsaber atm with retractable 1000mw lasers... Not to mention the thousands of dollars I spent on miniatures for table top role playing. Used to role play on the Star Wars website forums until they shut them down.

I've got a balance sage lvl 40 and seem to be around the same in PVP, 4/5 most rounds for dps. Would also like to know the difference, was rollin with a Tk sage for a while, but I found the instant force in balance more effective in both pve and PVP than the channeled telekinetic wave? ( I think that's what it's called). Also the no cool down on telekinetic throw is awesome for constant dmg output, Tk throw in this tree has a chance to make mind crush activate instantly as well. Plus other skills in this tree increase crit dmg on tick abilities by 30% I think... I tend to mind crush force slow project Tk throw force in balance Tk throw rinse and repeat...

My bad. The mud dogs are a pub guild

Republic : Mud dogs are recruiting! A growing guild with dedicated leadership. 350+ members. Always happy to lend a hand with levelling , equipment, heroics and flash points. Monday, Thurday and Saturday 55Ops nights,Tuesday nights we do world boss runs, Wednesday PVP , Sunday is naked flashpoint night. GM : Dortasia Officers : Kimba-Lee, Netine, Celestine If you are interested PM any of the above.

This also happens to me now I just steer clear of essles, haven't come across this crash on any other FP.

As far as I am aware the sith were a race of beings native to Korriban who utilised the dark side of the force. This can be seen as something akin to the night sisters of dathomir, kind of raw and tribal, kinda like a philosophical school of thought within a practice of dark side ritual/sorcery. Traditionally they did not use lightsabers, In the cannon Jedi too, we're a race with the first true Jedi being a called skywalker. Dark Jedi are just as the name states. To be a Jedi you must first be inducted into the Jedi philosophy, then fall to the dark side eg fallen Jedi eg Vader, Exar Kun, Revan, Caedus, Count Dooku. A sith never was a Jedi, eg Naga Sadow, Marka Ragnos, Darth Maul, Sidious. Modern Sith are a kind of perversion of the historical sith, kind of the love children of fallen Jedi and the historical sith philosophy of darkside sorcery. Note there is also a distinction between dark Jedi and fallen Jedi, grey or twighlight Jedi. Consider these the chaotic neutral, lawful neutral and neutral Jedi for lack of a better discription.

I would personally love to see some multi -classing...like a sentinal/maruader with a blaster and lightasber...or a sage/sorcerer with heavy armour, a trooper with a vibrosword etc... mix things up... an sniper with a shotgun secondary... you get the gist...

I've just recently returned and re subscribed, after unsubbing shortly after the APAC servers came online. Although the populations aren't any where near the awe inspiring first sojourn onto the fleet that it was in the beginning, I still find playin SWTOR lots of fun. I ran a heroic 4 with one other guy the other night and the boss batltle was a real adrenaline rush. It is a breath of fresh air to run into someone in the deserts of tattooine when you have been relatively alone for hours. I am all for a server merge, as I see it the more the merrier. I don't mind how long it takes because at the crux of it I enjoy the game, alone or with guildies or random people. And that's why I came back. I'm not in it for prestige in PVP, or to RP or anyone thing in particular, if anything I'm in it cause I love Star Wars end of story.
