Ya people are starting to notice in PVP now and actively seek me out before healers I'm going underground and stop talking about Gunslinger DPS in this forum.. lol "I'm up, he's sees me, I'm down!"

Quote of the month. Secondly - focus on lower health enemies in PVP to pick them off. Dirtykick, Pulse Detonate, and CC enemies around you to give you time to run or (re)cover. Thirdly - try and stay around others on your team. Look for spots that place in the position of: ENEMY > TEAM > YOU.

I had no issues with Corso and am now at 37 and can tank elite's with him easy. Turning off hook is easy enuf. No matter who u use - upgrade their armor/weapons is very important. My opening combo on a Silver w/ adds. Is to Aimshot the lowest health one, burst volley and then quickdraw as they are usually below 30% health. As the first add dies, CC the silver mob, switch to the last add (usually whoever Corso hooks) burn and then redo the opening sequence on the Silver mob. When he comes in melee, Dirtykick, burn, Interrupt, burn.. rinse repeat until down. If the mob is really tuff be sure to be using real cover and not gumby cover. It gets a lot easier once you pick up Trickshot in the sharpshooter tree as you can spam that every other burst volley for good dmg.

What he said ^. PVP especially - I'm into and out of cover often or non-stop really. I think follows the GCD x 2 (or 3secs) since you can't do it back-to-back-back but its up quick enough to make it worth the while. I should make a video but my movement is minimal - In cover, opening volley, out of cover move barely and hit Shift-F to reCover.

Sharpshooter Trickshot + QuickAim + Snapshot > DF build. In PVP I found a great combo of BurtVolley->Trickshot+Aimshot is a helluva opening and if you can learn the Cover-Quickmove-(re)Cover combination to make BurstVolley an insta-cast makes fast work not only in PVE but also PVP. Also - for those of you having trouble with the Cover mechanic, Use Shift-F instead of F to get into cover where you are versus Gumby Cover. Its fast and quick and with Hunkerdown/CoverScreen defense is greatly improved. Honestly the only time in PVE I use gumby cover is for hard bosses to get the defense bonuses, PVP is too fast pace to look for a log to hide behind.

Stick to Corso and make sure his armor is upgraded as good as yours. He'll tank like a boss and you can melt the enemies away. Oh and if you stayed on Sharpshooter it gets LOTS easier once you learn Trickshot..

'nuff said OP - you just got pawned!

You turn into Emo-Jedi that wears all black and listens to nothing but Depressed Mode in the Cantina..

Man you couldn't pay me to be an MMO dev. I would so get on the forums and tell all the whiney wow-heads to suck it and wait till improvements come out and if you don't like it - sub somewhere else.

+2 While we're at it - add some hotkey binding for companions skills.

^ agree. Man if this is what the WOW community brings to this game.. I ain't diggin it. The game has got some issues mind you but its still a pretty damn good game overall with lots of potential. Wait 2-3months and if it don't improve then talk but 4 days? Not so much.

What she said ^ Upgrade your companion's gear and stop trying to have him tank with Level 5 gear..

Holy drama batman over measuring DPS. If you don't like them, don't use them or group with ppl who do or by all means don't try and join a raiding/competitive guild. See how easy that was and you don't even have to get worked up and slit your wrists over it.

I guess it won't help for me to post my FPS then (it runs around 132 in game).. but then again I have a PC built for gaming and not trying to play this on my Tandy TRS-80 with 16k of RAM. All jesting aside - The prob most like more related to machines running 4gb of RAM as that seems to be the most common denominator across folks having issues. I'm on an NVidia running the latest 290.53 beta drivers and the game runs extremely well on max settings.

I love the folks that say the UI ain't that bad. You can't move or resize a damn window, except for chat. Move a window - seriously??? The styling is just fine but really I can't move a window? That's day 1 development no matter what kind of MMO comes out. But that's my only legit gripe - the game is freaking AWesome-SAUCE otherwise
