Are these chances bugged, or do I just have the worst luck? Been deconstructing Adept Enhancement 77 for days now with no hit. Yes, they are crafted on my own char, and i've deconstruct 7 at a time twice with no hit. Is it better to do one and one ? or several at a time?

No changes to pvp at all... My guild just got disbanded because the last few active players left now

The system alert when they went down said down for patching between 1700-1800 CEST. Now its updated saying you don't know why they are down? In other words, you don't know why you are patching them ?

I don't care how they solve it, but they should do something about it imo.

Why are people, who's talking with eachothers over voicecom, and grouping together for PvP all day long, normals and ranked, not concidered social players by BW/EA? I feel it's unfair that people using the groupfinder doing flashpoints without even talking to each other gets social points, while pvp'ers dont. Fix please. (After all the bugs are sorted!)

<couldn't delete the thread myself, can you?>

Did they also nerf the crit chance? I hardly ever crit on normal missions anymore :/ (Full affection + legacy perks)

Because you already did the quest that gave you free gear or money before.

Major patches are usually on thursdays, so since no announcement has been made for downtime tomorrow, it actually looks promising.

While I love the idea of world PvP, you gotta remember the past for your possible problems. Ref, Ilum. So add huuge lag to the problem list, as well as population differences. (In most cases the Empire steamrolled Republic due to numbers.)

You should always have TA up, other then that, its really situational dependent imo. I keep KP up on the targets I heal, and when they dont need KI to stay alive, I use my spare energy on putting KP on others. Quick switches between targets below 30 to spam SP is also something you need to be aware of, so setup your UI to easily see ppl's hp percentage.

Not much better for our PvP sets.. 4 pcs bonus is restore 3% hp over 6 seconds when using consumption, which after the patch is a rather useless skill.

I will try a similar build today. Been running full heal spec since lvl50, but this seems intresting, seeing as I do need to run away more often now. I don't agree that you dont use the AoE heal in pvp though, its a very usefull heal that in many cases is the cheapest option you have in form of heal per force. Will however see how I do without it.

Imo you're doing something wrong... I hardly ever get the 75k healing medal in huttball, yet we win most games 6-0, and in some cases 5-1...

PvE is way more predictable and can't be compared to PvP healing, which is where we got screwed by the looks of it. Still hopefull its possible to adapt and be viable though, but still to soon to tell with the servers down again.

I'm in the same boat, full bm healer, and most ppl we play know me, on both sides. I hardly get to be alone, regardless of how far back i stay. Sure, if you're left alone, you can still dish out some high numbers, but like I said earlier, its about objectives, not hps/dps. Anyways, gonne play now, and see if I can turn it around again.

I think most the qq posts are about healing, which you say isn't very good atm. Hopefully we're all just doing it wrong, and will learn the correct play style soon.

Btw, sheild speed bonus was moved to the other shield talent, instead of consumption now And yes, I do run 4pcs mystic. But from what I read, you can just move the armoring now, and still get the set bonus on your orange gear. (If this is not the case, rated war hero gear is screwed:p) I'll get back to this post tonight, after doing more testing myself.

Thanks for the feedback, I actually tried dps at the end of yesterday, but still dont like it. So will go back to healing and focus on learning the new stuff.. I do use the rakata stims/adrenals/medpack + wz expertise adrenal whenever I can, and I'm in full BM gear. When i specced my healing yesterday, I even specced into that 4% consumption thing, combined with force-mystic set bonus, that should cut the hp "use" in half for consumption. So I guess if I only pop it while standing in my aoe heal, force should still be ok.

I don't tend to land the big heals, being targeted pretty much all the time. Just about every player has a interrupt, knockback and stun to use that prevents me from casting it. Doing that while attacking me, makes me have to spam heal myself to stay up, or run away not helping anyone.

Damage per second. Useless to look at in pvp, since that's all about burst.

I'd love more tips, but by the looks of this, you had an assassin guarding you in both games, which makes your hp 'double'. Pre 1.2, with guard, it was impossible to die. But how to you manage force, while your team gets nuked? Which heals do you use? Rotation? I don't care much about how high numbers you can get, but how useful you are for the objectives of the match, and on my server, where i've played a healer for months, anyone we play targets me within few minutes, and stay on me whenever they see me. Sure, I can slow them and run away, but that doesn't really help my team..

I've played lots of games for a long time, and never posted one of these "omg u screwed us, whine whine" posts. But as a pure healing PvP player, I feel like I just got totally screwed with this patch. No, I don't want to go dps, and I have no interest in PvE whatsoever. So what now? I'm really hoping there's a few tricks that still make us viable that I didn't figure out yesterday, but right now, I'm just sad, and don't know what to do. Changes effecting me as a healer right now that I can see: 1. No proper way to regen force 2. Big heal isnt viable (People have time to switch target, open their spellbook, find their interrupt and cast it before i finish my heal) 3. Damage boost from expertise was boosted more then damage reduction 4. I lost about 1k base HP (Full BM Gear) 5. It seems like most DPS classes was buffed. (Might just be the expertise change?) If anyone has useful tips on how to adapt to survive as a healer, I'd very much like to know. I love the class, but fear that if its as bad as I feel now, my guild won't accept sorc healers once ranked play starts.

One thing you* should know about Doors/Turrent defense, a DoT'ed player can not cap it! So for solo defense, Affliction is your friend, if you manage to spam it on every attacker, you will have time to fly back down to the turret before they can cap it (Unless someone dispell it ofc). Once you get down, reapply the dots. Rinse repeat * Every Sorc!

Is it possible that you don't have all that much pvp gear yet? (While whoever you met has BM?) I can't beat them myself, but by now, I usually survive the first burst, and then run away. (If anyone has another option rather then running, id like to know )
