They do that a lot... which is another sticking point but yeah... wow.. back to the questing and the silly 10s who go into WZs without any knowledge of their own toons. And I love Wookies.. I want to be one!

When you have seen, first hand, what a poor manager goes through with the people who can't understand the code that they are supposed to be working on, then please, tell me I am wrong, but I've seen it TIME AND TIME AGAIN, in Government AND in Private Corporations. If the REAL problem isn't addressed NO GAME can go forward as well as it SHOULD HAVE or COULD HAVE. I was keeping it positive... I want the game to have THE BEST and darn it they can afford better; better programmers, better/faster servers. servers that are NOT DISK based, RAID based and are ALL on solid state drives that are massively redundant and can be switched from one set to the other(s) in less than 20 minutes for a cold restart on a HUGE array. Now, how is that against the rules ? I DO have better ideas - just because I am looking forward and they (and just about every other gaming company) IS NOT why flag the person who COULD do better at least with the "visible" things that are "wrong" or perceived to be wrong... WHY don't they have a background dowloader BETTER than the one WOW currently struggles with? There are protocols out there that are wicked fast, but I am guessing their bandwidth isn't what we may want to believe it is at all times... even major trunks can go out - it has happened and it will happen again. I used to get calls from people and then I find out two days later that a REGION of internet was out for days or more (duration for one was over a month). Point is, if I can think of ways to do better and me just a 20 year computer IT certified, even before books techie/Lan Admin, I think with their collective genius they can do even better.. but I'd like input on MY ideas instead of them thinking that I was "JUST" proving how little freedom of speech exists online and with companies who are being paid by hard working and game loving people. I am a VERY positive person, but anyone can have their ire provoked when a company takes money and then doesn't keep the people in the loop about just how many "outages" "patch" or "maintenance" HOURS and WHEN those hours will be carried out on a STRICTER and more ORDERLY schedule so people can work around them... Sorry but one outage a week was about all I could take - with several during the week (I am not talking dropping) and all servers offline for several hours at a time with little to no notice is unacceptable - again we pay for this. We deserve the best gaming experience that an MMO can provide. Show me ONE person, if the game was Star Wars and the technology was two to three times better than this, do you REALLY think that people would stick around long? THAT is what we are all trying to avoid.... another SWG and another heartbreak ending to a game we become invested in and they seem to not understand is, MOSTLY, a scheduled and very valuable time for most! I have a real life too, but I play the game to keep my fingers and my mind sharp while sitting in the dark waiting for the stores to open at dawn... I sleep every other day... There are many people who depend not on the game but on it's ability to interest, test, stretch, and motivate to BETTER one's performance - even small gains for someone like me with rheumatoid arthritis is a daily victory. Thanks for the browbeating Bioware and others. Cheers.

Too many of us agree with you. Those who don't must have a massive amount of time to waste sitting and waiting for 4-6 hours several times a WEEK - I don't. I am guessing you don't. Bioware removed my very honest and very provable post - but hey we pay for this kindergarten mentality where we have to take a nap - forcefully - at least once a week. It's getting old and I am not 5.

Freedom of speech is not allowed here.

Thanks for the post and for the link to your spec. Would you mind a screenshot of your cast bars and a hint as to rotation priority to I can set up my cast bars properly? Nothing I am doing is working - I am doing "ok" in warzones, but Quests aren't doable even at 31 and the silly class boss is 30. Thanks.

I am healer spec'd and I can't do a thing to kill Vivicar. I can get the rest, I had NO problems killing the rest of the elites, but Vivicar and his 9000 one shot has killed me four times now and it's getting VERY frustrating, not FUN. If this is a game, not real life, we should be able to solo our OWN AREAS - not so with the nerf that the Sage/Seers have had to put up with since the crappy 1.2 "update". Bioware has a lot to learn about real human beings... Some of us are doing this to TRY to stay focused, healthy and keep our digits from petrifying from arthritis and more... thanks Bioware you are about as heartless as it gets. This was the ONLY healer in an MMO (out of all of them since the INCEPTION of MMOs) that I 've EVER been able to play efficiently, until now. I thought the point of this game was fun and social gathering... So far, I've been wrong every single time I've tried to believe that.

Actually I tend to agree with you.

Absolutely the best post POST 1.2. I too am very miffed with Bioware for making the only character that I WAS good at not good at all... I am 1st or 2nd in healing in warzones but I am not getting anywhere NEAR the levels of all benefits from warzones since the nerf. Bioware, you have done something that has made Sage/Seer all but impossible for all but the most skilled of players - and as seen in your post even the elite are torn to shreds... how is a person with rheumatoid arthritis supposed to be anywhere NEAR as good as you are? I salute you for taking the time to put your very intelligent and very heartfelt words onto the screen for Bioware to see and hang their heads in shame. Oops, that would actually mean they look at postings .... apparently NOT. They didn't learn a darn thing from their past mistakes at all.

It's horrid in the warzones and I can't understand why Bioware is not getting that tens of thousands of players are REALLY ANGRY at the crap being thrown at them and then they wonder why they are getting such a pushback. Again, we are doubly nerfed - sorry but it's not running it into the ground if it isn't fixed - only something that is over can be overdone. Bioware you said to post our issues here but you aren't listening any more than you are from in-game tickets - not in the least. We PAY for this game, we don't want to feel like we can't do a single thing with our healers - and they are NOT meant to DPS - that's a crock of crap that I just will not accept. Healing is important AND special among talents and I've NEVER been able to heal before but I could pre-1.2 - now I am worse than the worst player in the game with a nerf. For me, with rheumatoid arthritis at 50, you just made it impossible to play a healer AND made it impossible to have fun with a character I finally understood, past tense. You suck beyond belief for boosting others and nerfing US.

Please post your build - thanks!!!

Ok, so please post the BEST 1.2 SEER build please, I am sitting here with all of my points at level 25 and with only the ones I know should be taken at the bottom level, I need guidance as I am not good with numbers and calculations - words, yes, numbers no. HELP, please.

What most are worried about it healing, not DPS. DPS didn't take the hit like healing did - and I've already seen a huge amount of anger from all over the web about healing not able to be done at all now in warzones.

I totally agree. Bioware made it impossible to HEAL now - and PVP was important to me as it is to MANY who play MMOs.

Just a thought Bioware, maybe if you change a CLASS so much you should allow them to RECLASSIFY all the way back before they chose an advanced class. So far I can't find a viable PvP spec that I can use when I am REALLY used to and love healing. The cost to respec is out of this world so I'd like to get this right. I don't know about everyone else, but the people on my server are telling me that ONLY the points that were in IRRELEVANT trees were reset, mine were all reset - I have no idea how to respec and I don't learn "new" things easily - it took me over six months to get used to the new WOW after being gone from it for four years - I had been a beta tester before it went live. Please, if you have nothing to add that is positive take it elsewhere, many of us are getting enough on our servers asking for clarification and of course, this early there is little to be had except for those who are just plain experts - that I will never be, my math is just not there. Thanks!

I agree, even those of us who arent exactly new have been thrown a curve... This isn't WOW where we can just pick up somewhere and go on, they wiped out ALL of my points - and some are saying that only those points that didn't fit the trees were refunded... Talk about confusing. Builds and rotations needed! I am PVP heavy with questing second - I do no PvE

Where are the forums Bioware? No matter what I do or what browser I use it's just not there. What is going on and why no status for the FORUMS being DOWN? NOW the reason I came in here was to beg you to let us CHOOSE which warzone we go into. I HATE Huttball! I can't play it as well as the other two and we certainly need more warzones!

Still trying to understand the tree... not even sure if healer is my thing or if dps is all I will ever be able to do
