I play a consular shadow in infiltration spec and I love it, but I ALWAYS seem to have trouble with Gold/elite enemies. I try over and over until after maybe the tenth time I die and I'm basically forced into asking someone for help. and while I don't mind asking for help I don't think I should have to unless the quest says it's a group quest. This leads me to believe that I'm doing something horribly wrong. Heres my skill priority list on elites...
Channel The Force
Force Stun for interrupting channels and ****
Force Potency
Saber Strike if my force is low
Spinning Strike if I've finally got them to low health
Shadow Strike when find weakness pops
Force Breach every time i can
Project after two clairvoyant strikes
Clairvoyant strike
of course Force of Will when I get stunned too
Typically on elites I have my healer out, considering all my other companions are seemingly useless in these fights.
Anything I'm doing wrong? I don't want to be one of those people who complains about how bad my classes dps is when it's possible I just suck. I would really appreciate the help!
