I'd reckon the effect of hot pursuit will only work on the first quickshot after leaving cover.

This. With patch 1.2 taking 'reopen wounds' seems a no-brainer.

To my knowledge, it has always been like this.

The talent changes will make a 23/18/0 build superior and with the trauma debuff on flourish shot we will have a firm place in premades.

Yet effectively stunning a sniper/smuggler for the duration of a root seems to be no problem.

Not sure if troll.. Anyhow, sorc/sages have an advantage since willpower increases both their healing and damaging abilities.

Besides, the real use of the grenades are the CC ability which you also get with the level 20 grenades you can buy on the GTN. Craft a whole bunch of the level 20 grenades and go biochem. Ofcourse, we do not know what patch 1.2 has to offer.

You nullify lethality IA / Dirty Fighting Snipers with that simple ability.

The grenades are on a 5 min cooldown timer. The knockback grenades are awesome crowd control units, which is the most useful. The difference between the cybertech only epic grenade (Wynz-Tek experimental shockwave device) and the level 20 tradeable V-1 Seismic Grenade is only the damage dealt and reusability. In my opinion your are best of taking biochem on your main and craft the level 20 grenades on an alt.

Without parsers nothing can be said, though the general opinion on these forums seems to be that they do similar damage in PvE, possibly shifting in favor of gunslingers. Unless multiple commandos are exploiting the debuff mechanism.

Fun man.

I absolutely loved the intro and I came the moment I heard Chariots of Fire. Your editing skills are of the limits, no doubt about it, though it can sometimes do harm to the actual footage and the presentation of your skilled gameplay. I personally would like to see the entire window, most particularly the energy bar, cooldowns and buffs/debuffs. For example, in certain scenarios where I'd throw a flash grenade I couldnt figure out whether you choose to do so on purpose or it was on CD. Also, I believe solo queue'ing to be more interesting as during most of the games you were backed up by your premade friends. To wrap things up this movie was very entertaining due to your editing skills, for which you need to tell me with what software you made the intro. To also reflect your strong gameplay I hope you could make some changes in your future movies (hopefully many more to come)!

There was thread about it earlier stating it did 1.7k absorb at baseline 50 and scaled with gear (2.3k champion gear). Thought sorcerer shield was 3.5k, with the possibility to chain two shields after eachother. Also, dodge only works against melee and ranged damage. Tech and force damage is not affected and hit you anyway.

This part sucks the most. But very true.
