The fight is harder then before, but it is still doable.

It is because they do not play this class, so that is why they could care less about fixing it. The sole person who does class balancing has admitted that he plays sniper and pvp's on an assassin. Coincidence that snipers are the best dps class out there? I think not.

Nipin - Powertech - Hybrid 2/22/22-2749.55 Have not run this spec a lot and need to work on getting retractable blade back up asap after the dot falls off. Also I did not use any adrinals so if I get some I am sure I could get higher with added adrinals plus getting better at reapplying the bleed. Also I am still running dreadguard power click relic and a crafted implant non augmented, so I could bump it up even more by replacing those 2 pieces also. http://www.torparse.com/a/317588/time/1372711901/1372712237/0/Overview

On the 2.0 patch notes it mentions the following. General The Carbonite Chamber and Life Day Orb have been updated to reflect changes to the rest and recovery mechanics. It looks like the devs forgot to update kolto tank too. When using it, my resources(heat, force ppol, etc) to not regen properly. Carbonite chamber works just fine, but not kolto tank. Fix it please.

That post just shows how clueless some of these devs are. This game needs new devs who actually know how to properly balance classes and what is sad is that it seems the community could do a better job at balancing classes atm then Bioware

Let me translate that for you all. Yes we did nerf powertechs and to stop the Powertech players from unsubscribing right now we are going to lie to you and say we actually buffed ap and not mention that pyro is one of the lowest pve dps now, just slight ahead of assassins. That is all.

I know. I think most people who said pyro needed that nerf either do not pve or are snipers/maras who don't want any other dps to put up numbers close to theirs.

Wrong. The pyro hybrid that used changed gauntlet is what needed a nerf as the dps in that spec was crazy, but Bioware screwed up and nerfed the cgc dot too. The need to roll back the cgc dot change. Before the cgc nerf on the pts, pyros who were not using the hybrid charged gauntlet spec were parsing right along maras and snipers, so the cgc dot nerd was really uncalled for and not needed.

I don't care how nice the planet looks. Bioware needs to focus on balancing the classes. There was a big dps gap in the classes on the pts before they took the pts down. And I fear what we saw last on the pts is what we will get.

In pve mercs can do as much damage. My guild has. A merc that can out dps most pt on live.

Which relic would you recommend for a sorc, the elemental or energy relic.

I ended up getting the mask on my 3rd pack. I probably should of saved it to sell but I ended up equipping it as it was one of the items I wanted. I could of cared less on the throne which I did not get. I also wanted the force master saber which I got and I also wanted the pink-purple crystal but got the endurance version which is not good for my sorc. Hopefully I can trade it for the power or crit version. I also got the blaster rifle and am unsure if I will sell it or use it.

And Starcraft 2 is down today too as me and a bunch of others can't get into SC2. *** man. There has to be some connection with both not working on the same day.

Maybe it is time to go try out WoW on my brothers second account. He has been trying to get me to try it so I can pvp with him. This server outage might just be the push to get me to go try it now.

You can only get black hole implant schematics from reverse engineering the black hole implants. Each time you reverse engineer one you have a 20% to learn the schematic. And I believe if you try to reverse engineer an implant tha that was crafted by someone, then you have no chance to learn it.

I choose to wait 0 days and this could of happened if bioware actually tested their patches before pushing them live. This bug would of been spotted right away if they had truely tested this patch which means we would not need down time to fix because it would never have gone live.

You are wrong in your calculations. They semi fixed the double dip bug. If you double dip each force lightning on the double dip now only does 2 to 3 ticks of damage, so you are actually only getting 4 to 6 ticks of damage on the double dip, not the 8 you are claiming. Also sorcs burst damage is quit a bit lower then a bunch of other classes now. The are not OP. They are more under powered then OP atm. It is actually pretty easy to kill a sorc.

So it sounds like the double dip lightning barrage has been semi nerfed. It looks like when you double dip FL from barrage price each FL is only doing 3 ticks of damage instead of 4. Can anyone confirm that this is the case? If so, is 1/12/28 still the best spec or is there another spec that is better.

I noticed this with my companions too. My khem was at like 17.6k then in 1.2 he was 14+k. I unequipped his implants and ear, then reequiped those 3 items and his health was back to normal. I think this is a glitch and you need to do that for your companions each time you zone with one out or summon them.

If I did not know what I was doing in my job and industry, I would be fired in a heartbeat, why should it be any different in their industry. If they truely do not know what they are doing or are incompetent, then they should be fired.

From what I have read in previous threads, people are claiming the reason the 1.5 second Di is gone from resurgence is because the devs can't figure out how to leave that on the resurgence AND get rid of the double cast glitch. So if past posters are correct, they put this nerf in not because of class balance but because of that issue and I hope its true and they find a fix for it and put the reduced cast time for DI back on resurgence, but that is just what I have read in other posts/threads and it could be either true or false.

I am pretty sure I have seen speed hacking in hutball. Last night an opponent had the ball and was running at the speed of my force sprint and it lasted the entire time he had the ball, not just the 2 seconds that force sprint lasts.

Thank you.

Which crew skills would be most benneficial for a sith sorcerer. Also, is slicing worth doing? I was thinking of doing the slicing then a crafting skill and the mission one for which ever crafting skill i chose, that way I can craft blue and purple and skip the green quality gear.
