I was playing on AP at aroudn that and im from atlanta it relaly is negligible its nto liek trying to play on an oceanic server.

Yeah i ran a hybrid vengeance like that for a bit it was fun. Personally i prefer teh 16/25 version of it with some dots and better enraged defense. I also stay in soresu and am basically a pvp off tank. I rarely if ever hurt for rage and can guard at will without losing rage generated.

I prefered, Krayted Damage Sliced DE-10 with its bugged armor penetration rating of 3 even though it said one. eye shot = no mind.

You weren;t Mls/MDEF/4004 pre-pub 9. THose trees were added in pub 9. And you are missing componenets of that build NO one bypassed, 4004 healer ,pre-cu if you had no dot clear and no heals = you died as you could not heal yourself. Also MDEF was severely underpowered in pub 9 it did not become the go to defense tree until the cu when Avoid Incapacition became the top skill. The OP spec for pub9 was MLS/MENH/healer 4004 if you were rebel. MLS/MP/Heal 4004 if you had any frs as a dark jedi. My spec actually countered these two specs with MLS Healer 4004 Defender 4400 enhancer 3402

MBH vs anythign above a low end jedi pre-cu was a waste, without the heavy weapons accuracy form commando the LLC failed, without pistol accuracy and dodge from Pistoleer and fencer, yoru pistol failed, and without carbine accurracy and counter attack from carbineer pikeman you failed. We never had a "firekd" we had torso shot that was a fire, and carbines had a kd. That required a weapon flip and stacking two different defenses. With a properly outfitted Master Pistoleer, Fencer 0444 bh 3040 spec you could get to 95 percent dodge, this meant that you could stand toe to toe with anything but a 4444 guardian and make them either flee or run out of force. If you are basing the success of an MBH build on group success you are doing it wrong, that doesnt' mean MBH was effective it means that your group was effective. Targetign a single pool against a jedi was silly you had to hit all three to make them spend more force to heal.

Bh wasn't a combat profession on its own either, it had tools but for the most part you picked a type of weapon and trained around, a master bh was combat ineffective compaired to a pistoleer fencer 3040 bh.

Actually i'd rather see all ranked pvp be done this way, With a server tag attached to you and a ranking thing between the servers. That way the true "best pvp server" tag can be claimed based on that servers ranked warzone performance. Cross server pvp = good thing. Cross Server PVE= bad thing.

Got news for you, they are going to be good and then you will have to find another thing to complain about.

In some cases years to reach max level in eq. SWG Pre-9 jedi grind is also up there with grinds. Something i did. I've never once complained about gettign gear, i had full champ in about 2 weeks of casual play. im only valor 57 though, as i've been leveling my second character.

My response is in yellow.

I haven't lost as my main spec variation of an Ironfist Powertech build. But i have lost when going advanced prototype or pyrotech, Tankassasisn do not bother me the hardest fight i have is actually a sniper/gunslinger that ranges me since he can nullify my charge and grapple to get him close.

Few things on these from personal experience. 1) Learn to type proper English. This is a given. But this goes for any age. 2) Never state your age. This can lead to problems, people like to fill in the blanks for things they don't know from personal experience this can lead to problems. I have a deep voice, especially uncommon when I was 14-15. this lead to people assuming my age was closer to 40 than 15. which lead to some friendships being strained when it came time to tell the truth. 3) Claim you have a headset but no mic. Thin, but doable. Better to claim you just don't like talking. 4) Use "my boss" or "my job" to excuse unavailability instead of "my mom." Doable also until they give you the question "what do you do?" 5) Age 5 years. Only real remedy.

4 of these http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#800MfRMRzrdkZrukMoMz.1 spider heal each other and grav round called targets.

better to go Endure Pain then Rakata Medpac, Massive hp buff.

i miss worded that sentence i said that i'd rather have the ability to flip instantly with a 3 second cooldown on all abilities instead of a 1.5 second channel.

This is not a Star Wars story but still fail god-mode none the less. In Fallen Earth I was a VP in a outlaw biker club themed clan. With the other biker clubs that were friendly we'd do a weekly bash hosted by the larger club on teh server. My character was a womanizing drunkard with low morals and a quick temper. Well he saw a piece he wanted and pursued her, after getting rather drunk the other roleplayer stumbled and triggered some backstory **** and ran away. (likely the player expected me to be roleplaying someone who acted tough and would follow because i had a kind heart. in reality, my character really didn't give a damn.) This white knight comes running up to me. He's max level im only level 17 at the time. He uses the fact that he's max level to godmode that he punches me and broke my nose. I roll with it spit the blood that flowed form my nose on his boots reach up , fix the dislocation and stuff my sawed of shotgun in his gut. and say "Give me a reason not to kill you bronze." This is also accompanied by my entire MC pulling their weapons on him and his people. Now instead of back down he godmodes that he is able to pull his gun at this point all the roleplayers realise he's a tool and we do the biggest thing you can do to insult a godmoder, we ignored him. Flash forward 2 days and he takes it to the forusm bad mouthing the club. Well jokes on him I hit close to max level in this time period as does every oen of our combatants that were still leveling we decide that this needs to eb handled with pvp. We challenge them to a fight but the coward guild wars an alt guild so his guild won't be able to accept. So we duel. My character is still outleveld. combined with me personally being in a high state of intoxication i beats me...... barely due to me forgetign to buff and have ammo for my guns. But not ot be denied "my humiliation" he says again. I proceed to beat him 13 straight times before he manages to get another win, followed up by 4 more straight wins for me. Now this man's arrogance knows no bounds he starts talkign like the 13 losses he jsut suffered meant nothing next to the win. God moding that he "taught me a lesson" we chuckled and laugh at him as the entrie rp community watched him get his *** kicked over and over again turning him into an even bigger joke. One failed guild war with us later and his clan has disbanded and he quit the game.

And that is not one global cooldown? 1.5 sec = global cooldown. To be honest i'd trade the ability to instant flip for a 3 second cooldown on all abilities over the channel. Thats about quivalent to playing an immortal/vengeance hybrid and using stance flip + enrage to rapidly change tactics on the fly with sw (tougher to play but effective gives you access to great tanking and then you cna flip shien for higher damage when ignored.)

I prefer the ironfist build, but yeah you are right. Running the ball i am assuming heal support. Guarding is fine if you are beign healed also. ALL excep tthe solo hold on ald is designed to be done when the group is there to support you.

Same. I am powertech, currently i roll an ironfist spec with some modifications 28 11 2 spec and i got told i was OP because i was able to kill a healer through well timed cc and interrupts and tanks shouldn't kill healers. People don't like to think that they are the problem.

Thats called an immortal spec'd juggernaught. In their 20 point teir they get a talent that removes the need to channel force choke. They are rare with all the Rage kiddies running around. A properly played immortal jug that does throw/charge/shatter/choke/sunder/ravage will hurt you hard then follows all that up with a backhand and another shatter will leave you close to in the dirt. force push at the end for effect to start it all again.

This. Marking targets is the only way for pugs to counter voice comms used by premades. Its easy to type "kill gun" when in combat than to type XXXXX is a healer, everyone target XXXXX. Get better, or better yet understand that jsut being a healer does nto give you free reign to heal unmolested.

40 Bonus coms per match. You still want to win to maximize your comms. With this it looks liek a winning match will liekly be aroudn 100 coms and a losing match will be around 80. win and you get 4k valor, lose and you get 2k + losing bonus. All in all you still get rewarded fro winning but its less painful to lose.

You can always flip into tank stance in one global. Solo defending a point on ald? flip ion. Need to run the ball? flip ion need to guard the ball carrier due to havign a dps heavy team? flip ion.

The problem with voidstar is i don't see a viable tiebreaker scenario. lets say one team is all heals ro majority heals and the second team has none. Team 1 can't breach the 1st door on attack due to not killing everyone quick enough, they have massive heals and massive kill counts ( due to constantly single killing) but get no where. Team 2 can't breach the first door because they can't break the heal tank. They have high dps but little to no kills. Which team deserves the win in the tiebreaker? if we do it based off medals... team 1 might win out, even though they never did anything than turtle up. Team 2 had to coordinate dots and death to keep team 1 from planting. EVEN in sports ties can be handled with a coin toss. You can't give everyone a win as that leads to exploiting. The only choice is instead to give everyone a Loss. This solution would not go over well in the current bag system but maybe after 1.2 when that goes away and people will stop caring abotu w/l in random matches they can do that.

I hit you so hard your body guard fell on his ***... Han Solo *Working as intended*
