Ataru procs are considered a force ability. So IMO I would say that malice is useful for a Carnage build.

From what I have read here on the forums Ataru procs are considered a force move, so that may explain why people take malice as carnage.

Thanks for the reply.

You are correct. It is not marauder armor.

I am curious if any of this is the same for Carnage PvP. Do you really need 110% accuracy for PvP as well? I played around with my mods from my level 40 furious gear, and replaced most of the crit for power, and I seem too be doing a little less dmg than normal.

I can't tell if it even works to be honest with you.

I totally agree. It is such a pain to try and get back too your ship while doing missions at times.

The problem is with these post, the people that reply never mention what spec they are. I have leveled as carnage from the start. I am 35 right now and I can tell you it has been a up hill battle. That being said though, after level 26 things have got alot better, not super awesome, but better. There are some animation bugs as well that I think that really hurt the class, IE Smash, and Ravage off the top of my head.

lol, a Jawa! On topic though, I have too agree with the OP. I was disappointed when I found out that if you go light there is no romance option. But then again, who knows, perhaps that could change in a expansion.

Players are considered to be " Champion " type.

Happens way too often.

Yup, my bad there. I am only 30 atm, and forgot that we get that ability later.

AoE Stun? Are you talking about Smash? Smash doesn't stun players unless your talking about PvE mobs, unless I am missing something.

I have to agree with some of this. Bioware stated that you could use any of the companions too solo through the story part of the game. I don't remember them saying you had too use a specific one just too survive. Played a Marauder too 25 in the beta, and I just hit 30 last night. I can say that it is getting better as I level up, but with that being said, it feels like a up hill battle till about 26 or so. I don't think you should have to play a class that long for it too start being fun. The other classes have a much easier time than we do. I am Carnage spec right now, and have been since the start so perhaps that is why I have had a rough time with the class so far. Don't get me wrong it is fun at times, but it also makes me infuriated at times as well. On a side note, I think people need to start being a little more helpful and stop telling people to learn too play or you suck. These are not the blizzard forums, and if everyone would help out and give some insight it would make all of us Marauders better players.

July 28th here. I'm sure all of the July pre-orders will get in today.
