How is PT, AP or Pyro, in pvp atm?

Very descriptive and extremely helpful write up. Thank you for taking the time to do the comparison, it helps me visualize things much better. So a Marauder or Juggernaut, huh? I guess in reality I'll make both and see which one I like better. I've already got both of them created with a Jugg at 31, working on the Marauder. Thank you again for the very helpful information, It is greatly appreciated!

Thank you all for the input, I will give both the Marauder/Juggernaut a shot. I got pre-ordered the expansion so this exp makes leveling pretty quickly. At least quick enough to be able to try both before the experience is removed.

Awesome, thank you very much for the suggestions I appreciate it! I will most definitely check them out.

Thank you for responding, this question was more directed towards those who have moved over from wow. However, to answer your question. Windwalker Monks are a DPS spec, that is not capable of stealth. They are a highly mobile, burst melee dps class that has an energy/chi system. They use energy to build chi and use chi to deal dps. Their high mobility contributes to high survivability, as well as their utilty. It is an extremely unique class to say the least, which is why I wonder if it's possible for anything similar to be in this game. To go into specifics would take a lot of time and work, my best suggestion would be to check out a video on the gameplay. Thanks in advance for your time!

Okay, so a bunch of friends are all moving to SWTOR from World of Warcraft and I'm having a fairly difficult time figuring out which class I'll enjoy playing the most. I would try all of the classes if I wasn't so hard pressed for time being a college student and all. I play a Windwalker Monk in wow and have for about a year and a half. It is the one class that I have stuck with since I started playing it. So my question is this: What class, if any, in SWTOR resembles the Windwalker Monk the closest in terms of play style? I mostly arena and play at 2k+ rating in wow, so a comparison to that style of play would be most effective. I am fully aware that this is a completely different game and what I am asking may not be possible, but it still does not hurt to ask. I have searched online for the past few days and really haven't been able to find any comparisons regarding the monk, and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to read/respond to this thread! Cheers!

Something similar happened to the group I was in yesterday. We had some major difficulties with the last boss, as well. We finally killed him but didn't get any loot from him or the second to last boss. It was a pretty huge waste of time, but bugs are to be expected.
