    You want Feedback on the new pack?

    in Cartel Market Suggestions

    Posted

    Yeah, what is sup with changing something that wasnt even broken to begin with... I dont mind wasting RL money to get new packs when they come out in hopes to get something that is cool or something I can sell so I can get what I want.

     

    But this new one I only got maybe 2 items that might sell good enough to allow me to get something I might really want. Thats terrible drop rate, period.

     

    Please fix it asap... or you will lose me spending money on any other future packs.

    PVP Server Populations

    Jung Ma was my original server and since I've return to the game like a month ago. I transferred to Harbinger and have been having a ball. It is super active and if it pvp or pve there is always something to do.

     

    I log into Jung Man last night and only 7 people on Rep side out at Ilum. 20 something on the fleet... nuff said.

     

    PS. Rep have it rough on Harbinger though... if you mostly play Rep you might wanna try TEH or SL.

    Do you even PVP?

    Yeah, queue times are not the issue here on Harb. Republic side being good is another issue... I know I try and spread knowledge whenever possible.. for example;

     

    In the WZ with the cannons (I can't believe I cant remember the name. lol). As we're ridding down I love to mash tab target to see what we're up against. I notice the imps had a lot of stealthers. So, Im on my scoundrel and I tell my team get ready to back me up on grass because they will most likely send at least 2. Low and behold two sins stop me from capping, I call out for back up and stay alive for a long time (the sins really weren't that good). No one bothered and we got 2 capped and people started to leave the match.

     

    Another game I call I got snow and will call for back up... 5.. .yes, 5 people hung around the back side of mid and 3 went grass. Not one person went mid. Its things like this that drives me insane at the lack of pvp awareness on the Republic side. That just doesn't happen on Imp side.. .sure at times you get stuck with a bad group but it really happens.

    Tanking without heals

    in PvP

    VG/PT tank can be very effective in a warzone. But it's not a strictly tank build to make it work.

     

    You won't want to use gear stock from the vendor. It's expensive on the wz coms to do this but if you really love playing the tank as a vg/pt you will want to do this...

     

    Using 208 set bonus gear, remove ALL of the Defense mods from your armor, mainhand, and offhand, and replace them with the high endurance Power mods. These will increase your Health and Power, but lower your Defense and Mastery. The reason you want to do this is because Defense is sub-par on a vg/pt tank. You want your shield to do the work to help proc your energy/heat blast as fast as possible. Power is better than Mastery on a tank, because crit rating means nothing to them.

     

    The next step is to replace ALL of your enhancements with high Endurance enhancements. This will lower your Defense even further, and slightly decrease your Shield and Absorb rating. After replacing these you should have roughly 35% Shield and Absorb. Make the numbers balance out with Earpiece and Implants. Run all 14 Fortitude augments, and get up to 80k+ health. Your ability to do DPS should significantly increase, while still being difficult to kill. Use your guard wisely. If someone is cc'd and is going to die anyway, don't guard them. Swap guard to someone who is doing dps still and has a chance to live longer. Try to time your Reactive Shield with warzone adrenals to get a more significant damage reduction.

     

    Utilities are important. You are a support role, remember that. You should be able to transition between objectives quickly. Spec into all three utilities that buff Hold the Line. Get the 2nd cc break with kolto/adrenals. I also suggest you spec into flamesweep/surge slowing opponents and to increase the range of those abilities.

     

    Enjoy,

    Thanks, for the info... I just recently use my token on a PT tank and now have all 208 gear. Was wondering what else can I do to min/max him and this helps ALOT.

    Best Server for Pub PVP

    in PvP

    Posted

    Yeah the pubs are sooo bad on Harbinger. The other day I was in a Hypergates guarding the node on my Shadow. when a stealth operative pops. I said PYLON in chat, hard stun the operative twice (nobody has come to help at this point) then finally pop and start attacking the operative. During this time, a vanguard runs up, drops off an orb, sees me fighting, and then runs away. Operative hard stuns me after I break and they double cap. I never thought I'd meet worse PVPers.

     

    So from the general consensus I'm getting, The Ebon Hawk seems to be my best bet? I'm just a little bit worried about the lack of ranked on it though. Unless someone wants to throw in another good word for Beregen Colony or another server.

     

    Holy ****... the same thing happen to me the other day. Except I had 2 Ops on me and still managed to stay alive for far too long... one sorc came and drop off a orb... while one of the Op was capping and just keyboard turn and run away. I have NEVER seen something like that before... EVER in any mmo game.

     

    Pugs are just uber bad on Harb. I would love to start a premade but at this time, I think is best to just xfer off somewhere else that at least you have a change.

    Two class balance fixes that need to coincide: AP/PT and sorc heals.

    You do realize operatives will be FOTM (again) as soon as sorcs get nerfed, can't wait to go back to the 1.2-3.0 meta healer.

     

    Operatives in their current forms are far from sorc level of opness. I just want to see other healers *cough* commandos, mercs* get some love.

     

    Sure, Operatives will probably come out on top if Sorc get nerf... but it wont be cause they are unkillable.

    Without a Tank Guard... Op healing is beyond tough. Because you have to keep moving to allow for your hots to heal while your not getting hit. If you get stuck in a long stun lock... your pretty much dead.

     

    You have to keep mobile and never stand still for too long. Use ur rolls and halo transverse (I think that's what its called) to your advantage.

    I'm not sure what it would take to bring Sorc's down a notch. But look at the numbers before the raise of their OPness and probably hit the middle between then and now.

     

    I just got back into the game and when I quit, commando's where the FoTM healers. Don't know what happen to them and Merc's but... Sorc's are so far ahead of everyone. It just isn't fun, period. I hope its fixed before ranks start up.

     

    PT's are another story. They should make it where PT's and Sorc's fight each other, oh, wait... that happens now a lot. I love queuen into a wz and seeing nothing but PT and Sorc.

     

    BTW Im a OP healer (that's an operative... not sorc! lol).

    To be honest, it doesn't matter what server you're on at lunch time. The players you have an issue with will always be on at night. I don't think it will change on EH, but even on Harb right now you would have pretty close games and very little flaming.

     

    I agree 100%... the really bad players on rep side come out at night, or the really good imps come out at night. Either way, its not fun to play during the night on the rep side.

    a lot of the times i just am....

     

    Damn, so much for trying to be nice. You did say the above didn't you? I might have read it wrong, if not.

     

    I was adding to that and saying "yes, you are amazing". but I didn't mean to butt hurt your feelings.

    You just need to make friends or pay attention when people are queuen up that know what they are doing. I know running into the same 4/5 people while running solo can't be fun. But you can also do the same and find some players to queue up with and turn the tide in your favor.

     

    Believe me, I would level up through pvp if I could but there are times when you have far too many ******* queuen up making the game no fun.

     

    I love lowbie, mid and 65 wz'n. I can do then all day... solo. I just returned from almost a year + off and now have a couple of people on my f/list I can join up with and make them even more fun... for me, not the people getting ownt. :rak_03:
