Thank you for the offer! Another guild recruited me in-game. If it does not work out, I will be sure to contact you!

OK Flavor of the month would imply I chose the class because it was OP. I was playing it in beta and did not know it was going to be OP. I didn't even see it being OP when I played it... but I saw plenty of vids and agree that it was. It is just that, at my level of playing, the class became annoying to survive with after the nerfs. Between this and the dying guild I was in (the whole community was dying at that point), I left the game. Again I will disagree. But I think our definitions of casual are different. I think people playing phone games are casual. Not someone who spends every moment outside of class and work playing MMOs, even if it isn't the same game and/or character. I also think that mastering other classes helps to deal with those classes in PVP, something I learned from years of LoL. I can't tell if your post is condescending or joking. Short answer: A Gamer. Long answer: PVP is my go to for most games, after years of playing League. But in general I am fascinated by different play styles, and can't resist alting to try them. More often than not I don't level them to the cap, SWTOR is making it easier with the 12X boost to just level them to the cap anyways, so I'm not getting bored of them as quickly as usual. I'm sorryyyy :'(

Only trash enemies are stunned by these. They also fail to 'CC lock', there is downtime where the enemy or enemies could be attacking you. Granted, for trash that is stunned by those two abilities, you probably don't even need to use those stuns to kill them off....

Hello all! I don't consider myself a casual gamer, but due to my game-hopping (I have swtor, ESO, Rift, Wow, LOTRO, and Diablo 3 installed currently and play them all in 'spurts') I often come across as casual, but I always seem to come back to SWTOR, mostly for pvp. I played at launch, maining a Scrapper scoundrel when they were OP, although my gear and skill was not OP, so when they were nerfed I became frustrated and quit. Returning for f2p last summer, I started a combat sentinel and loved it, and changed my scoundrel to a healer, and later to dirty fighting, and got both to lvl 50ish (give or take) and took another break. Now, with 12x exp boost, I have finally finished them both and an infiltration shadow as well, and am hoping to work on a vanguard, slinger, and maybe guardian as well before the boost is over. My focus is on pvp, but I do enjoy PVE content as long as people are patient for a first-timer. I don't like elitist attitudes but I appreciate tips and advice, for both types of gameplay. I mostly just want to be able to queue with people for pvp while I get my gear, and after, to help coordination and have people to rage to after a bad match. I don't consider myself a bad player at pvp at all, although my performance on all characters was better before I hit the level cap. I was in a fun guild at launch that died 3ish months later, and was in a guild called Time Lords for a bit last year (recruited after a particularly good pvp match), but they sent out a letter asking who was still playing, I replied that I was a casual but was still around, and next time I logged in I had no guild. I haven't seen any time lords so I assume they simply closed down. At any rate, I would really like to play with some fun people again.

This is why your companion of choice should be able to hold aggro. Scoundrels/ops also function better in solo PVE with a tank companion just because you can't CC lock everything to stay behind them.

Hey there! Took an online quiz that said I should talk to you guys, since I want to have fun without any elitism... I played at launch, choosing a scoundrel because they were supposed to be for 'smart people' (I just wanted a challenge), and fell in love with pvp. Then all these rumors started about scoundrels being OP, which was not the case for a low level noob like me, but suddenly the nerf hammer came down and I lost interest. Then, last summer, I decided to play a combat sentinel and, finally, have reached the level cap on both characters, and am rapidly approaching it on a Shadow as well. I enjoy flashpoints and other PVE content but I really just want to have people to pvp with, just so I can rage to someone other than my poor girlfriend sitting next to me, and when I'm not raging I can have at least a few teammates to communicate with. My toons in game are Naffans, Jalgorm, and Secati, and I'm playing Secati most lately (might be best to message me there in game, than message me here). The last guild I was in sent a message out asking who was still around, I said I was but casual, and next time I logged in I no longer had a guild... so this is a cry for help!

how do you guys deal with the spell shield from sorcs? I don't understand absorb very well but it seems obnoxious that an apparently op class does barely any damage to someone with this shield up, i try avoiding targets with it but sometimes i need to do SOMETHING to help my team besides just waiting for someone to lose the shield. any tips?

your job will be to burst and/or CC the adds to protect the healer. If there aren't any, you can use sabotage charge and some dps abilities that you get at lvl 1 to help against the boss, or help the healer with off-heals. unless you are 100% sure there will be no adds, do your dps/off-healing sparingly; you might suddenly need to switch back to taking out the adds. I play my scoundrel like this, preferably to off-heal but i can help damage when necessary. Hope this helps

First I want to know if anyone has found the Scoundrel gear they showed in the progression video... it looks better imo than space cowboy but the space cowboy is all i can find... So what gear is recommended for pve and pvp?
