live in wisconsin aka central time. i work second shift and its annoying to come home with swtor servers down them coming back up by the time i go to sleep. Once a week is fine but twice is like...just push it off till next tuesday's maintainence. it doesnt bother me that much but yeah i can see where the OP is coming from.

sorcs probably think they can just stand there and spam lightning all day. TBH the sorc stands out like a sore thumb spamming lightning though and gets targeted alot. Im only lvl 31 on my sage so my talents are mid range but i went just enough points in balance to make TK Throw spammy (force lightning?) and rest is going into healing tree for now. Revitalize(?) can be talented to cause -1 sec cast time for next deliverance and if you have put any points into healing tree you already most likely have another -.5sec to it. So 3sec -1 -.5 = 1.5sec and thats without any alacrity bonus. Im going to stop on healing tree and from lvl 33 to 40 dump 7 points into TK tree to get +20% absorb to the force shield skill. Oh and you can also spec Revitalize(?) to give like a 10-20(?)% defense bonus. Im not saying this is going to make you, me or anyone else unkillable but there are ways to make yourself harder to kill while still doing moderate dmg. TK Throw and its mirror are retardly OP when modded for zero recharge.

story? sexy gun? no skirt? Chiss? no lightning causing seizures 99.99% of the time? nobody cares about another crybaby thread?

im not a pvper and i do just fine on my server with my sage. Ive had some pretty bad matches but ive had some very good ones too. Stop cockfighting peeps and start learning what it actually takes in a pvp match to win.

Removed all 2 melee skills from my sages bar on getting disturbance.

call me lame but i went up the balance tree and speced so that i get +10% crit and zero recharge on TK Throw. Thats all i do is spam TK Throw and do my best to cc the rest of the time. Its pretty decent presure so long as you arnt getting ganked. I die 5-7 times in warzones which is pretty bad but im frequently in the top 3 for dmg. I guess its just a wait and see kinda thing on wether or not the general game population will stop sucking so bad.

I asked the same thing but it went unanswered and got buried. Ive tested this with Tk Throw and that talent that heals for like .5 or 1 % of your health if you c-hit with a periodic dmg skill. I got it once in a while with weaken mind but could NEVER get it to pop with TK Throw. And indeed that balance tree would be pretty epic with TK Throw and Earthquake as some of the periodic dmg talents compete with the TK tree and the side healing would make you quite durable.

expecting this question to pop up ALOT until they change how the quest is recieved. Should auto popup in quest log or just simply be offered by the advanced trainer right NEXT TO the regular skill trainer. Currently you get the quest from some random forgettable dude on the station with a regular quest marker that wont even appear till your lvl 10 (which im guessing 75% of the players arnt as they pass by him). This quest sends you to the advanced class trainer right NEXT TO the regular skill trainer. The quest giver adds NOTHING meaningful to it and infact you will probably find the advanced class person before this random npc if you have no prior knowledge of how AC selection is handled in swtor.

Yeah I seriously think regular players and noobies get terrified by the lightning animation and watch themself get destroyed. In the panic they forget to fight back or use def skills. Like a deer in the headlights kinda daze. I mean seriously, even I freak when i see a lightning animation targeting me and im a TK Sage! Another one to terrify me is a melee who can keep in range of you. They chop you down really fast if they know whats happening both on the screen and on their skill bar.

Op cries about afk kick and acknowledges that its there for a reason as short as it is to prevent peeps from never logging out to give others a chance to play. Well no effing dur captain obvious... And ofcoarse they are going to lengthen the 10min afk boot to something a little longer down the road. Stop waisting peoples time with stupid threads like these.

i redeemed july 21 and got in @ 6:50 am central time.
