I'm curious to why you chose the piece of gear that you did... Head: Rakata Enforcer's Headgear* Chest: Battlemaster Enforcer's Jacket Hands: Rakata Enforcer's Gloves* Legs: Battlemaster Enforcer's Leggings Feet: Battlemaster Enforcer's Boots Just weighing the stats on each piece, I have a hard time setting down Rakata for any BM... Right now I'm using 5 pieces of Rakata & everything else other than the cube is BM... I'm over 300 expertise, close to 1900 cunning & 18k HP (i don't have the exact numbers on me, since I'm @ work). I've changed out all my accuracy enhancements for surge/crit/end, I'm pretty squishy but hit like a truck. Is there a reason you chose the chest/legs&boots to be BM & kept the helm & gloves Rakata?

Interesting! I do like the idea of your spec, disagree with a few things, why take imperial brew over survival training? Bigger heals on you & you really aren't using poisons... maybe find a way to get energy screen? Medical screen also isn't worth taking right now since its not working... Other than that, dig it dude!

I have biochem aswell and do see other op's hitting harder that i.... I was thinking about swapping some of my accuracy for power/crit... maybe that'll be the difference

As a dps Op I can tell you its viable for you to dps in 8/16 mans on hard/nightmare. I've done both as concelement & lethality... Since the nerf & since we don't have a sprint/charge, lethality has been my personal favorite for pve. Alot of people complain about having to be in melee to get TA's but it makes it interesting and if you play your class to its potential should be fine. I do respec for pvp though

Hahaha! Yes! This!!! Sofaking good Hey! It worked on Op's, now who's next? Assassins? sounds good

I agree that even with the nerf, concealment does higher burst, you just have to know how to play it right... just like anything. I'm sure in the right hands lethality is nasty too... not mine though! If its what u dig, keep on diggin

Would you mind posting your spec?

I'm not a troll feeder but I have to agree... its a bummer too, I liked the idea that as an op you can play heals/melee/ranged, I guess you still can and you have proved this, it for some reason just feels clunky

I usually play as conc but when Im spec'd into medical engineering it always happens... infact its my favorite part of the spec Half the time I laugh along with it

Couldn't agree more. Have had some amazing results... GG

This is hilarious to me because no changed have been made yet & now they're fine with you

I haven't tryed it out yet, but the 18/0/23 is probably the first spec ill try once we're hit with the neft bat.

Respec! Im trying to be creative with new specs... just dont know, I fell in love with Concealment.

Yeah. I'm curious how its all going to play out. With these nerf's, are you other Op's going 31 Concealment? Im trying to look at the nerf positively, it may open up some new specs based on play style. Previously, the top tier skills were too good to pass on.

With the new changes... Operative Acid Blade: Now provides 30% armor penetration while active. Jarring Strike: This ability now knocks the target down for 1.5 seconds. Hidden Strike: The damage output of this ability has been decreased by approximately 20% to control burst damage and because it was enabling significantly faster than intended kills in PvP. Scoundrel Flechette Round: Now provides 30% armor penetration while active. K.O.: This ability now knocks the target down for 1.5 seconds. Shoot First: The damage output of this ability has been decreased by approximately 20% to control burst damage and because it was enabling significantly faster than intended kills in PvP. With the new changes, those of you who aren't interested in Medicine/healing tree... Will you be going Lethality? Maybe a cross between Concealment & Lethality? Or staying Concealment. Being the least played class already, it looks like there will be even less of us now (not such a bad thing).
