you don't have to RE somethign to find out if you can learn it. Hit RE, hover over the item, look at the tooltip, it will tell you if you have a chance to learn it or not. Win

Heeeeeeeeere's your sign...

Wow dude, just wow. So much fail in one post. They changed the mechanics since PTS, so your uber PTS experience means jack squat. I think its hilarious that you would try to comment on something that you have no experience in. Also, 16m has been bugged and he doesn't pull in OR do dmg during the big purple circle phase, AND 16m hm pulse droids had squat for hp and could be killed in one round. We can also kill the big walker droid in two bombs instead of 3 that it takes in 8m. They fixed the two main bugs that made 16 man easier, but the fact remains that it WAS easier and you had no idea what you where talking about.

It was intentional that Black Hole gear not have set bonuses, ffs before going off about not testing you should at least have your facts straight.

I think Meluna has got to be the worst Mod in history that doesn't work for Sony. They just closed the thread in general and redirected people here, while quoting George Zeoller on a totally unrelated topic. The thread you just locked wasn't about Heatseeker, jfc.

The Karaga proc relic I am currently using is less than 3% of my dps and you can't use it on the two tanks in EC because it procs on the shield generators even though you aren't targetting them. There are enough burn/burst phases needed in EC that an on use power trinket is prolly your best bet to go along with your Matrix cube. You should be sitting near the crit cap of 35% so the crit relic is useless.

PSA stands for Public Service Announcement And yes you have to eventually kill Kephess, however if you break him out too early then you end up with too many mechanics to deal with while dealing with Kephess too.

You are all basing your assumptions that HSM is not getting benefits from heat sigs just because its not hitting as hard as it used to. But thats wrong, if you shoot the dummy without any heat sigs, then apply them, then shoot it again, you will see a 25% increase so it IS getting buffed by our own heat sigs. They just "fixed" a bug that was buffing it some other way and killed its damage output.

No, they directly responded to our reports about 1.2c breaking HSM(hence the reason the dev post was AFTER 1.2c). They have since even come into this thread and flat out said that HSM is working the way they intended. I guess someone needs single syllable words from now on, but its not us.

You could just read the dev tracker since they posted that they retested and its working as intended.

No its not, reread the post from the Dev, they claimed it was also getting other unintended benefits that they corrected and it is now working as intended after the Devs tested it. Please stop spreading misinformation.

Its right there in the dev tracker, not like its hard to find

Completely wrong, you can NOT cc the 4 turrets that spawn in hard mode. You can do the two little dudes, but not the turrets.

So if you're not familiar with the game then you have no clue what you're talking about and shouldn't of said anything. 33k per mod adds up VERY fast and its not like they don't already have enough credit sinks as it is.

A simple google search of swtor server ip address brought up a list as the very first link. If you can't manage that I can't help you(check out http://forums.peerblock.com/read.php?12,12344,12344) Did I say all games? No, so your entire ramble about poker games is irrelevant. Read the thread, even the giant WoW was blocked until Bliz bent over backwards to work around the censorship. China has banned anything that contains "fantasy, time-travel, random compilations of mythical stories, bizarre plots, absurd techniques, even propagating feudal superstitions, fatalism and reincarnation, ambiguous moral lessons, and a lack of positive thinking." Ergo, any game that has fantasy elements, time travel, or anything else in that list is blocked by them (see how Poker doesn't meet any of that criteria?). Again, what does that have to do with anything? I said they don't ANSWER (fyi answer does not equal read) every thread, especially threads that are asking questions that have already been answered.

Name one. Already been answered. IP addresses aren't some super secret piece of info. It doesn't take much effort to trace the destination address of your outbound packets. Just LOL. Is she the one that told you that Taiwan is still part of China? Again this has already been addressed, China does in fact block many games and has a very active and strict censorship policy. They don't answer every single thread and have already stated that they don't block access to the game based on geographic regions. Besides, even if they did answer you think they are just a bunch of liars anyways so its not like you would believe them.

Fully talented you only have to do it 3 times to get a full set of stacks, the reason you didn't notice anything else is because most of the other dps abilities they have are instants and not casts

The launcher now says they are patching and servers won't be up for over 2 hours, ***

oh, you mean switching classes. Switching AC's is not a respec

Since Tracer is the 1.5s cast your talking about and doesn't crit for much, then no, I don't. What I call slow is HSM on a large recast, so those big hits only happen at most every 15s, but since every cast of HSM isn't going to crit for max dmg, its much more likely to only hit as hard as say....chain lightning, and that can be cast way more often than HSM. Sorcs are built around the dots, and ticks of FL, a lot of little hits that add up. Just because you can't crit as high as X class, doesn't mean your dps isn't as good.

I hope they do too so they can realize the difference between an author driven website and a community driven forum and understand that it doesn't matter how much progression the owner has since he's not the one providing the info.

OMG NEWS AT 10! A Class not designed for slow big hits can't crit as high as a class that is! OMG THE SKY IS FALLING!!!!

Heat seekers has a cool down and is the only ability that a merc has that can hit for 5k+ in one hit. In full Rakata and with two mercs putting heat sigs on the mob HSM crits for 5k+ regularly and 6k+ with adrenal. Tracer, the only one that can be spammed, crits for 4k when rng aligns the planets.

Its not a good filler at all. There is no cooldown on TM so there is no need for a filler. TM gives you a stacking buff for railshot, PS doesn't. There is no reason to use PS unless your pvping and get locked out of TM.

Are these bugs only happening on HM/NM? We tested it a couple times on normal tonight before blowing our NM timed run on a bugged boss and didn't get any bugs
