    [GUIDE] Awesome pve/pvp dps spec guide for 1.2!

    in Sage / Sorcerer

    I'm still working out some stuff, but if you want to try something try

    I was testing the damage against my guild mercs, we both are full rakata gear and I was about = damage in a 2 min fight on the raid boss training dummy. Also with this build, I wasn't having to worry about force as it was regenerating quickly. This isn't the final build for my guide, cause I haven't tested out the others, but this seems to be doing well. You will need to use Lightning Strike for wrath procs when Crushing Darkness is down.

     

    Affliction, Force Lightning until Wrath, Death Field, Crushing Darkness, Force Lightning until Wrath, Lightning Strike, rinse repeat.

     

     

    I think you should up the time of the test to 4 mins. If you do I think you will find that the traditional 12/28 is going to be superior for a few reasons.

     

    1. You can still double dip lightning barrage.

    2. Your not wasting 2 pts in healing.

    3. You have much greater force efficiency with subversion because your now casting lightning strike all the time with wrath.

    I have the same issue. I would assume this is a easy fix, that im sure is very low on their priorities list. Basically the database is pointing at the wrong texture for the Rakata mesh in game, but in the cut scenes and character select its pointing at the right texture.

    ESDF is a conversion that you must deal with if you are serious about playng a FPS or third person mmo. WASD was fine in the 90s for playing wolf3d, we have more things to press these days. The other option is a nostromo or even better a strategic commander if you can still find one.

     

    ESDF gives you more buttons under your fingers and once you get your reflex response used to it you will be able to handle your character much bettter, plus since your index finger rests on F it is a more natural position for touch typists and you have the nub on the key to let you know your hand is in the right position.

     

    Easy way to do the esdf conversion this game for you folks.

    Turn on the second middle bar and the right side bar.

    Bind:

    e=forward

    d=backward

    s=strafe left

    f=strafe right

    For the second middle bar, hotkeys from 1-10

    x, z, a, q, w, r, t, g, v, c

    11 and 12 put to either

    y,h or h,b depending on what is more comfortable for your index finger.

     

    Bind your extra mouse buttons to the right sidebar. (if your mouse has less then 5 buttons, replace it.) Set the sidescroll wheel actions to trigger [ and ] in your mouse drivers then bind those to the side bar along with the mouse buttons. don't actually bind mouse3 to anything, use the sidescrolls as a hat switch, much quicker response. trying to use the scrollwheel as mouse3 will end up in false triggers of them and zoom stupidity.

     

     

    Emergency buttons go on your mouse, bubbles, insta heals, cc breaks, ect

     

    Instants go on the letters around your hands, put CC on Q and T so you don't spam them. Abilities with long timers on x and c, they are a pain to hit.

     

    Castables go on ther number keys you can easily reach, since you have to take your finger off E to stop moving so you can cast, that finger can trigger them. Your two most common go on 3 and 4, spread them out from there.

     

    Keep your freebie melee attack on 1 so you can trigger it with a right click on the target you are hitting.

     

    Keep buffs and crud you want a hotkey for but will not be using in combat on the number bar 7 through = since that is out of easy reach with your hand on esdf.

     

    Keep your speeder and things you can click to trigger (quest items, 120minute stims) as you will never need a hotkey for them on the sidebar in the extra spaces you did not have mouse buttons for, those are your last vestiges of clickyness.

     

     

    Do the exact same thing ^^
