This whole post is about an ongoing issue where the Communication from the Devs to their players has been abysmal about certain things in this game outside of the Cartel Market, which they have kept fantastically doing great work with. So I ask you friend what is your opinion of the Communication from Bioware/EA employees? You seem to be defending them, does that mean you support their work? Or are you in fact left wanting to know more about issues such as what were posted above?

Ummm not sure I understand the lesson we are suppose to be learning from this story

I nominate Ken******* for abismal force sweep sillz when being pro healed in voidstars!

He thinks this is m'urica apparently, what the hell is his deal. Ratchet <3

Can someone show me the ropes around this server? I'm new. And i hate Kenshin, for whatever thats worth. I'm a scoundrel healer.

I am tehcnologically a little bit slow, I have ImDisk and the SWTOR Unleashed downloaded but am not exactly sure where to go from there, i've tried certain things but nothing that changed my in game FPS. Was wondering if sombody had some spare time to help me through this, twoud be amazing.

Still don't know whether the Original post was intended for PvP or PvE, In PVE Madness 7/3/31 is very superior to any Deception SPEC IMO, (in terms of just plain DPS.) If you have a good dps group, VS'ing assassin can be good for burst phases though. The secret relies in force management, having your dots up As much as possible, not wasting force on reapplying dots too early. DF'ing on CD, mauling on proc and thrashing all the rest of the time, and watching for visual animation/Buff bar for raze proc on melee abilitis. In most raids nowadays there are breaks in combat to regen force that you can go a little bit harder and not worry about draining your force using thrash 4 time in a row with all your dots up and maul not procced yet. But even on the dummy i don't find myself using my basic auto attack assault as a force regen. Being in position for maul is good as well for less time running around as well. And watch your CD on recklessness. (My thrashes crit approximately 60 percent of the time, they crit for just under 1900 with unearthed knowledge active, GlobCD is 1.5 sconds, and thrash hits twice every time you use it if your acc is at 100%. In short your filler in this spec is a HUGE part of your dps) PvP however. Deception is way better burst damage IMO. But it is limitted mostly to melee range, with an extra 4 sec stun and a spike slow with reduced Force cloak CD. As a Madness spec sin. you can easily lock down a healer and control what he/she is doing. Insta Whirlwind is amazing now it has 30m range. Madness IMO a little bit more utility however if you spec into reduce Force Speed cooldown. With increased range on force slow, 30M Deathfield, 30M Rooting-dot most melee shouldnt stand a chance against a Madness Sin. Both DPS specs are advantageous for certain situations in PvP However after saying that, if you really are the type of player who judges a class based on its ability to 1 v1 others, i think you should have your head checked. Thats not what WZ's or RWZ's are about!

Another Question.. When your barrage procs off of a TM, but you necessarily dont anticipate it proccing, because we are all not god and dont know when things will proc, and you begin casting another TM... Do you stop your cast to utilise your barrage proc by moving a bit, or do you go through with your cast and then utilize your barrage after. I don't parse much to know which is better, but i could imagine in the long run, doing the TM instead of utilising barrage proc would be bad for heat management. I hope this question is legible.

lol, there's two types of damage though, there's sustained dps for raids and such, then there's pvp which is all about Bursting certain people down at the right times.. or in the case of some classes using grapple and force pull at the right time

w or w/o relics+adrenals and such ? lol

You, sir, Make me laugh, i thank you sir, because you sir, don't know what is coming out of your posterior region

Pretty sure whoever says they run Nightmare mode raids with 4dps and says the dps cant suck at ALL.. is probably in kindergarden and click all their skills with their mouse lol Nothing ive run into this game so far, even in the dreaded Nightmare mode,, is even close to the difficulty of the World's Hardest Game..... Go Fish!

I wonder how many of these guys arguing about this are cookie cutter sorcs
