There is a way to keybind "/follow" but it is not set by default. I believe if you go Menu > Preferences > Keybinds > Movement, you can scroll down the list of keybinds and set your own for following a target. Personally, I use "~" (the key next to 1) for Autorun, and then Shift+~ for Follow.

There's no place like this thread. Classic. Very enjoyable read.

Weekly Challenge: Catching-up Title: Thank You Sith Inquisitor Darth Apostas (Assassin) No Spoilers ~1400 Words

I have been fairly busy the last week so I hadn't the chance to comment about some of the earlier entries for this week's prompt. This was a lot of fun to read. Look forward to seeing where this story goes next. Even though it seemed a little rushed at the end with that twist (as someone else pointed out, that probably wouldn't happen in the restaurant), it was an intriguing change. I always enjoy reading about the background of characters to see the influence that made them who they are. This was a great read for you characters from your earlier post. Welcome to the Thread! Good to see Akaavi since I really haven't seen many writings including her. My entry(ies) should be up shortly. Finished one (now revising) and trying to finish up the second by tonight so I can post before the new prompt.

Bright, this timeline is very good. I've also been looking for a way to keep all my character's ages and stories straight considering the multi-generational plot of my legacy and the game. However, a couple things I feel I should point out to the benefit of all. First, according to Wookiepedia (I know, not the best source, but still...) and Bioware's upcoming novel Annihilation, written by Drew Karpyshyn, the Treat of Coruscant actually lasted about 12 years before finally breaking and the "Second Great Galactic War" beginning. This probably means that somewhere between the end of Chapter I and the start of Chapter 3 (for most classes) is when the war restarted. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Cold_War http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Second_Great_Galactic_War All this does is really move your blue/red bar over 2 cells, but technically it would be more accurate. Plus, the start of the war may mean some changes to someone's legacy. Second, I think the timeline would benefit considerably from extra rows between each characters that details when their respective class stories (i.e. Prologue, Chapter I, Chapter II, Chapter III) occurred. While we can go through the class stories in about 3 weeks, I'm fairly sure these stories actually lasted several years, with the Interlude somewhere past the 12 ATC. Furthermore, since all the class stories do not occur exactly simultaneously and the fact that some legacies may have multiple generations, keeping track of these plots for multiple characters could be quite an arduous task. While some class stories occur before others, I personally also hold (for my characters' canonical purposes) that some parts of the class stories may occur before the 10-year time frame given to us in the game. Anyways, food for thought and good work on the timeline.

Weekly Challenge: Communication Breakdown Jedi Knight Sala-mun (Sentinel) and Doc No Spoilers Title: Disconnected Author's Note

If you wish to play a tank, you choices are limited to either a Jedi Guardian or a Sith Juggernaut. The Marauder and its Republic mirror, the Sentinel, are purely damage-dealing classes.

First, I'm not sure about the damage of Blade Rush compared to Slash, but as a Combat-spec'd Sentinel, you will want to replace Slash with Blade Rush on your Quickslot Bar. Don't quote me on this one, but I believe Blade Rush should be slightly higher. If you do not yet have enough skill points to learn Blade Rush, then the tooltip on the ability is probably not taking into account your gear and so Slash may seem higher than Blade Rush at the moment. Another reason Blade Rush should be used during Zen is that Blade Rush also proc's Ataru Form attacks while Slash necessarily does not. Spamming Blade Rush with those proc's would yield higher damage than spamming Slash. Second, Pacify only reduces melee and ranged accuracy of the targeted player. Force and Tech attacks are not affected.

Definitely an improvement from your earlier post, imo. However, i would recommend a few more changes. First, you want to take the 2 points in Burning Focus. This is your only passive focus-builder. Although it doesn't seem like a lot (30% chance for 1 Focus every 1.5 sec), considering you will have your DoTs up as often as possible, you can generate a lot of focus over the course of the fight. This makes it especially nice when you need that 1 last Focus for using Merciless Slash. Second, to get those 2 points in Burning Focus, you should move the 2 points from either Force Fade or Watchguard. Personally, I would transfer the points from Force Fade. While not that useful in Operations, that 2 second reduction on your interrupt comes in very useful in some Hard Mode Flashpoints. Furthermore, Force Camouflage in PvE is mainly just a threat dump mechanic that gets the boss off you (and back on the tank). Then you would immediately go right back on whacking the boss, which would actually cut your Force Camouflage short of its full duration anyways. Now some may argue that its great for avoiding AoE damage in Operations, which is true, but I believe there are better ways at mitigating such damage, as I explain below. Third, I recommend investing the 2 points into Defensive Roll. This is a permanent passive reduction to all AoE attacks by 30%. I believe this is better than using Force Camouflage as the damage reduction is comparable (Defensive Roll gives you 30% reduction while Force Camouflage gives you 50% reduction) yet is always up whereas Force Camouflage is only 4 seconds (6 seconds if spec'd) AND while Cloaked you cannot attack lest it breaks your camouflage and you lose that damage reduction. Personally I prefer to continue hammering away at the boss rather than take less damage that any decently geared healer can heal through while standing there like a statue. Finally, Accuracy is in abundance in the higher tiered gear and, frankly, we don't need a lot of it. Sitting around 100% Accuracy is just fine. So while putting points into Steadfast is recommended, depending on your gear, I'm not sure all 3 points are necessary. Any final points you have may be placed at your please then. Just in case you are wondering, here is my PvE build for my Watchman Sentinel: http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#501bIbRrRMfsZhRMZM.1 Good Luck.

First, Precision Slash is only usable by a Sentinel spec'd high enough into the Combat Tree. So unless you are a Hybrid Spec of both Combat and Watchman, you are not going to be using both Overload Saber and Precision Slash in your rotation. Also, since the elemental Damage from your burns ignores armor, Precision Slash is probably not the best ability to use directly before Cauterize; should probably be used before Merciless Slash for the most uptime on the armor penetration (i.e. in case you get knocked back or slowed or *insert any one of the myriad CC's here*) Second, the DoT applied by Overload Saber is separate and distinct from the DoT applied by Cauterize. So in essence, you actually apply 2 DoTs when Overload Saber is up and you cast Cauterize. Third, if spec'd properly, and in my OPINION you should do this, Merciless Slash has the chance to reset the CD on Cauterize. Cauterize I believe lasts 2 GCDs on the target. This allows you to apply the DoT from Cauterize (and probably also Overload Saber for the 2nd stack) then use Merciless Slash to apply the 3rd Stack of Overload Saber and possibly reset the CD on Cauterize. Then simply use another ability (probably Strike to add more focus) and then reapply the DoT from Cauterize again (or just reapply Cauterize then, but you do lose out on the last tick from the first application of Cauterize). As for your concern of Leg Slash, it does apply one of the stacking DoTs from Overload Saber. However, this is an ability that really only should be used in PvP. For simplicity I have really been answering as PvE. But this does not mean the aforementioned information and possible rotation aspects do not apply to PvP. Also, as said by another, Master Strike hits the target twice; so if you still have the appropriate number of Overload Saber stacks remaining, you will apply 2 stacks from Master Strike.

Check out Sentinel - A Primer by Maefly in the Jedi Sentinel Forums. It's a Sticky at the top of the forum list. Should give you some tips on builds for each spec. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=47695 Your role as a Sentinel is strictly damage dealing, but we're great in a group since we have a few group buffs that are awesome for the entire party.

I would also like to add Post-Character Creation Customization, something akin to a barber shop. One reason is that I think my jedi should be able to grow out a beard. It was nice while leveling as a padawan to be clean shaven, but now that I'm a master, I think a beard would do nicely.

I will have to try Master Strike with Precision Slash up as well. However, in your given spec, I noticed you placed 2 points into Debilitation (Master Strike has 100% to immobilize the target for the duration of the ability). Then you stated in the answer to the second question that against some players, namely Sorcerers, that the ability could be finished with the enemy player out of range. Either Debilitation is bugged and not doing its job properly or the ability does not function in PVP and thus is working as intended. Sadly I believe it is the latter. Just saying, as an attempt to help streamline fellow Sentinels, I do not see a reason to place 2 points into Debilitation.
