Thank you for the replies guys. I will work on my apm and assassinate usage along with cleaning up my opener. One last question if I may, how much more dps would you estimate that I could put out in my current gear level and if I am playing like this in raids ( i.e keeping the same priority but dps dropping on certain bosses for obvious reasons) is it good enough to clear nightmare content?

Hey guys, I'm an assassin who is recently trying to progress into hard modes and wanted to know how I could improve my dps if anyone could take a look. I know MK is quitting soon but if anyone else out there could offer some advice I would be very appreciative. Also good luck with your future endevours MK and thanks for the guide AMR Link: http://swtor.askmrrobot.com/character/45f4ee0e-b707-47ff-a6d5-d688718962e3 Current best Tor Parse Link: http://www.torparse.com/a/741893/5/0/Damage+Dealt

Yeah but you're supposed to do boarding party to gear up. Not gear up to be able to do Boarding Party. The flash point is fine until the last boss in these 2 flash points. The level of difficulty spikes from easy in dragon age to a modded Nightmare + mode from the Black talon, The easiest flash point, To Boarding party, Supposedly the second easiest Flash point. You shouldn't have to bug the game to beat this. You also shouldn't have to gear up to be able to do this. This is where you gear up. Its kinda frustrating that the only flash point that is doable without good gear is Black talon. I hope this gets fixed.
