I still think there should be two guards
one for force damage
one for tech damage
Both having minimal Melee damage.
That way it requires a bit more work on the tanks part to keep their healer up, rather than setting their guard up and sitting by as all damage is transferred. I think such thought process to chance the guard to the appropriate type like this is beyond the comprehension of most pvp tanks out there though.
-
I think this is will be a huge benefit to classes limited to a set stat in PvP on their offhand. Due to us currently have a rather larger stat decrease compared to the three classes that have moddable offhand.
Well, they could also just **** the bed and increase stats on the locked offhands still defeating the purpose, but least it's a start.
http://www.swtor.com/blog/community-qa-may-11th-2012
David Hunt (Systems Designer): It’s due to arcane technical details. There’s no direct design reason, although there are some awkward situations and implementation details to address. We’ve been talking about options for how to fix the inequality between offhand items recently, and we’re about to start R&D on a potential fix. -
Noticed your accuracy is trending higher, just coincidence I imagine.
I'm stll iffy on Accuracy with this patch. So many things hit so hard that anything that lowers my chance of killing them is potential fatal for myself.
It didn't mean much pre 1.2 since not many classes could match our damage. It's pretty tough now though. More of a "play it and see if I die more" type thing right now.
PS: They need to enable a stat tracking thing so I can see how many stupid million credits I've spent doing modding tests. Which wouldn't be so bad but I despise dailies
-
Such as I dont see you mention the abilties you DO get vs the abilties you dont get on Sentinel... Lets see you can always attack if you are rooted and always ranged (you sound like its bad to be ranged!), you get a knock back, you get a stun, etc.... Only one tree gets a very limited form of healing...
..
Kind of hard to prove a point when you list an ability Powertechs do not get.
-
I am actually gonna get the WH offhand. 16 aim and 30 expertise, yes please.
For sure. It's still an upgrade, even if slightly.
I just feel for the amount of comms it takes, it's better to re-outfit the rest of your gear first. Trying to get the most out of the least kind of thing.
-
20k. At least. Yesterday i saw one capping two nodes at the same time.
In my Civil War, the Turrets to the speeders to me. Since they knew I would cap them anyways. .
-
I gotta agree with this. I have never understood why they allowed Biochem usage in PvP anyways.
Once people utilize on using cybertech grenades in PvP this is gonna cause similar problems.
I keep the lowbie grenades handy since they aren't restricted to cybertech. The 4sec root one is amazing to help with point capping or general control.
-
Do you think people would have as much problem with force shroud, if they could somehow be CC'd during it? Like have stuns in their own category and not as "tech" or "force". While keeping the Tech/Force immunity in tact.
While there are countless threads about Undying Rage, unless their resolve is full, you can handle the Marauder just fine. You CC them and then they are dead shortly after. I feel it's a relatively balanced cooldown.
Force Shroud however can be used 100% Offensively without any hindrance (and on a shorter cooldown). Granted, it takes weapon damage, but that's such a small part of a classes arsenal (minus a very very small portion of ACs).
I dunno. I think it would go a long way to keeping things in line for the class.
-
i just love how PT's are getting ALL the focus in this thread. As if Vanguards arent running around doing the SAME thing.
its getting so stupidly bad
I like how people posting Voidstar numbers with multiple healers somehow merits part of an argument? (Not you, but just saying)
-
We see this a lot, at lest in the morning. We'll have a Premade of 4 going and some stragglers from the guild solo queue.
I think the game tries to find the quickest way to fill the Warzone. In some cases, the only way to meet the minimum requirement is with a 4 Man Group over the solo queue (which would make the wait longer as there isn't enough people queueing to take up the extra spots)
-
I'm not satisfied until I can break 1 million damage.
The healers. So many. Both sides. Heh.
-
(reserved for the offchance of needing a third post once guide is complete)
-
Expand on that please.
I wouldn't say it's a bugged mechanic, and the tank swaps in EC make it hard to keep up. But the way Taunts work they aren't temporary threat, they are additive to what you have. For example (these are just rough numbers to illustrate how it works)
You are at 100 Threat on a target. Nobody is attacking it. You taunt it, it adds 50% Threat. You are now at 150 Threat.
use your AOE Taunt and now you are at 275 Threat. (50% of 150 for those unable to follow).
So forth down the road. Your tank that keeps his taunt off cooldown should never lose threat. Ever. No matter what. Long as they can time the swaps on First/Second boss in EC they can do that there too.
It's not like other games where taunts or focus abilities temporarily put you to the top of the threat table to build up your threat a bit.
-
From a guy who makes a YouTube living stroking his e-peen about how OP Powertech is ... :3
Your signature is an advertisement for why PT needs nerfing. Hypocrisy much?
You seem to think I don't believe their damage needs toned down. I've said multiple times I feel they should (at the expensive of getting something defensively we can actually make use of, or remove ourselves from combat/get an opponent away from us)
I merely post in these threads trying to correct some of the idiocy I see when people try to argue against PTs though.
To further add to this post, I present to you a Rakghoul with shades.
-
Still worse when it's PTs. Not just because they have the highest damage, but there are more ways to reduce the damage of other classes.
Do tell.
-
The problem is really when you get 2 or 3 good classes together in a team and focusing..
I fixed that for you.
-
LoL What??
You realize they are tanks yea?
Heavy armor with approx 45% kinetic and Energy Mitigation in full BM. Yes clearly this is not a passive defense
Shield Generator off hand means they get even more mitigation on procs against many attacks. Again this does nothing to help survivability?
Reactive shield Reduces all incoming damage by a further 25% for 12 seconds.
Then add in depending on why spec you are things like:
Hold the line (CC immunity and movement speed) (Tactics tree)
Rebraced armour (+16% armor) ( very low in the Sheild tree)
Reflexive shield which reduces the cooldown of Reactive shield, so the more you get hit the quicker it will come back on line. (Assualt tree)
Yes clearly the Vanguard is lacking in defense.
This thread is about DPS Vanguards/Powertechs. Not Shield....
Plus you are mentioning a 31/31/31 Point build listing all those abilities.
-
+ 30m 4 sec stun
+ aoe 2.5 sec stun (45s cd)
+ guard as well
I'd say they have decent utility. Don't pretend that they don't.
Can't guard while in DPS Cylinder.
-
I don't think the ability to burn me down in about 5 seconds is balanced, regardless of their own defenses or lack thereof. The fact of the matter is that powertechs do more burst damage than any other class in the game, and they also have some really nice utility to back it up (slows, pulls, etc.).
1 Pull on a 45 Second cooldown limited by Resolve
1 Snare that is on 1 Target within 10M
Taunts (Which any Tank AC has)
Your definition of utility seems a bit....weak...
-
Section L. - Countering the Pyro (Work In Progress)
I will eventually write out a bunch of strategies for these classes in detail on how to beat us. But for now I'll simply grade the "trees" to the best of my knowledge on their survivability against us. (Vanish is not taken in to consideration here for OPs and Sins). Survivability for the healers simply entails if they can survive long enough for help to come and support them.

Section M. - Leveling as Pyro
A lot of players wish to flat out level as Pyro the entire way, which I whole-heartidly recommend. My personal preference is Shield but that is only due to the soloabiliy of Heroics. However, that is not to say Pyro lacks a lot. It just requires you to be more careful in the way you play.
Leveling Companions:
Your main companions will be Mako, Torian or Gault. Both Skadge and Blizz won't do much to help you as even geared out they go down pretty quickly without you being a healer.
I always preferred Mako, it allows a bit more wiggle room when fighting elites or champions. Both Torian and Gault are great companions, but on tougher encounters it becomes a "kill them before they kill you" mentality.
In the event you are fighting an elite the *easiest* way to manage your companion is have them open up on the target and use any defensive (or offensive) cooldown they have. When they drop to around 30% or so use your taunt. Do not attack until this point, it gives you a good amount of free damage on the target before it starts beating your face in. Otherwise after that just damage it normally.
If you are using Mako, be sure to uncheck any of her damaging abilities. While she'll still take a pop shot at the target occasionally, she'll cast her heals more frequently as her GCDs aren't bogged down by casted damage abilities.
Leveling Specs:
There are a few ways you can level your character. I'll post one of the ways here, for every 10 levels so you can get an idea of what works out really well. I'm keeping these builds mainly PvE orientated from a leveling perspective.
Level 20: http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#301ZZfhM0z.1
Allocation Order: Burning Gas > Iron Fix > Superheated Gas > Sweltering Heat > Incendiary Missile
Level 30: http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#301ZZfhrbzG0z.1
Allocation Order: Superheated Rail > Gyroscopic Alignment Jets >Prototype Particle Accelerator > Rapid Venting > Firebug
Note: If PvP Replace Rapid Venting with Infrared Sensors
Level 40: http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#301ZZfhrbzGhrs.1
Allocation Order: Firebug > Rain Of Fire > Burnout > Automated Defenses > Thermal Detonator
Note: If PvP, replace Automated Defenses with Energy Rebounder
Level 50: http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#301bMZMsZfhrbzGhrs.1
Allocation Order: Puncture > Rail Loaders > Prototype Burn Enhancers > Prototype Cylinders > Intimidation
If you noticed the final 50 Build does use a 4/6/31 set up. With your stats generally being so low, especially aim, you'll gain more from a 4/6/31 build than a 7/3/31 build.

Section A. - Intro
Hello good citizens of the Powertech Community.
I decided to take some time and throw together a guide for Pyro Powertech in PvP. I will add a PvE Section later so have no fear, you folks are not forgotten.
This will be an ever evolving guide. By that I mean this information will change depending what the community brings forth and when they articulate better ways of doing things. Point of this thread is to compile all that information in one snappy little guide for people to review, read, inspect, print out and put on their fridge.
Also, this guide provides Options as a lot of the play-style is dependent on the player themselves, which in the appropriate sections I'll explain and highlight for you.
There will also be a few opinions added to various talents, trees, abilities on what I (or others) feel best as a whole.
Anyways hope you enjoy this. Feel free to comment or add to this, or ask a question and somebody from the community here will answer you.

Section B. - What Is Pyro and Why should I Spec It?
Pyrotech is a pure damage tree, shared between Bounty Hunters, but superior with Powertechs due to some accessible talents Mercenaries do not have. It is not, as commonly stated, a burst spec. If it was just a burst spec it would not be doing such high DPS in parses in a PvE Environment. Pyro is, as I put it, a "High Damage Spec, with Extreme Burst Potential".
For the most part, it is a pseudo-Melee build, requiring maximum efficiency at the 10m Range on an opponent. However, due to some abilities it provides some relatively nice ranged capabilities as well so in the event you are knocked back, pushed away, or running to a target you can keep pressure and damage at a near 100% up time to some degree.
In a PvP Environment, unlike some other Melee counterparts, and to a lesser extent Advanced Prototype, Pyro players will have no way to remove themselves from combat or escape a battle in a timely manner. The build becomes a kill first, run later, type approach. This can be troublesome and near frustrating if you are constantly getting focused so be sure that's the type of survival you are OK with before playing this spec. On the upside, the damage you do put out, in my opinion, far out weighs the low survivability of the build.
Section C. - Bounty Hunter Resource Management Refresher
The resource management all Bounty Hunters are stuck with is Heat. An ill-thought out resource system that to maximize it's effectiveness requires a lot of micromanagement of what abilities to use when. This does hold true more so in PvE as you'll have opportunity to use your basic attack (rapid shots), while in PvP you'll find yourself Overheating rather consistently. With that said, the system works like this:
Current Heat
0-40 5 Dissipation per second
40-80 3 Dissipation per second
80-100 2 Dissipation per second
So what does this mean? In simple terms, the more heat you have, the longer it takes to go away. Staying at the Sub-40 Range provides the most optimal heat management, and also use of Rapid Shots to keep it around that level. Depending if Vent Heat is available, or Thermal Override, or if you have a PPA Proc going over that will be OK to do. Long term though, if you stay in most of the fight at the 40+ Range you will hurt your damage potential greatly.
The few GCDs of casting Rapid Shots, while keeping heat lower, will provide a greater increase than patiently waiting for your heat to go down to use a single ability.
Section D. - Acronyms

Section E. - Powertech Pyro Mechanics
Lets go ahead and talk about basic Pyro Mechanics and some explanation on the abilities used.
Cylinder Used - Combustible Gas Cylinder:
There will be little reason to ever switch your cylinder from something other than CGC. What CGC Provides is the potential to add a Burning Tech dot to the opponent via our Rapid Shots or Unload at 10% Application Rate. Also talented it provides a 100% chance to add that dot via Flame Burst.
Prototype Particle Accelerator with Superheated Rail:
With 1.2, Bioware added an internal cooldown (ICD), to PPA. What this did was made it so we could no longer get chain Railshots off on an opponent, lowering our burst potential. The ICD is at 6 seconds. What PPA Does is it makes the next RS casted free. With Superheated Rail, it actually vents 8 heat each time you get this proc, it is our only soruce of built in heat management outside of the normal heat dissipation.
PPA has a 45% Chance to proc with your Flameburst, and a 60% Chance to proc with Rocket Punch
You can get a PPA Proc even if you never Railshotted before. (We'll talk about some rotations later). You can also sit on a PPA Proc so if you were to Railshot at the end of a PPA, you have a chance to refresh it on your next attack. Normally this isn't the best idea but in some situations it allows better heat management.
Railshot Armor Penetration:
Railshot is the strongest attack a Pyro has available to themselves. With access to 3 point puncture in the AP Tree, this will stack with the 30% Super Heated Rail Provides (if target is burning) to effectively give you 90% Armor Penetration on your Rail Shots.
Taunts:
All Powertechs have access to both a Single Target and AOE Taunt. These are off the GCD and can be used without hindering your rotation or anything of that nature. My recommendation is use these with a bit of intelligence, while the protection bonus is great, keeping these off GCD just for the fact of keeping it off the GCD will hurt more than it helps. I specifically save the AOE for well, AOE and the ST when I know a healer is getting attack or another high dps might be getting focused.
Section F. - Talent Specs
One huge benefit of being a Pyro, is you have flexibility to play with your talents and still be as effective as the next. I'll list a few here for you to choose from:
PVP
1. 4/6/31 - http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#301bMZMsZfhrbdhGMs.1
2. 7/3/31 - http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#301hMbZ0cZfhrbdhGMs.1
3. 7/3/31 With Better Heat Management - http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#301hMbZ0cZfhrbdGhMs.1
4. 8/6/27 - http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#301hMhZMsZfhrbdhhMM.1
5. More to Come
PVE
1. 7/3/31 - http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#301hMbZ0cZfhrbzGhrs.1
2. Will add more as I finish the PvE Section
Section G. - Specific Talent Discussions
You probably are looking at some of those talent builds and wondering why I didn't take certain things, that at first glance seem like they might be decent. Or you have a question about why something is there.
Integrated Cardio Package: More endurance isn't a bad thing right? Well, it is when it's only 3% and takes 3 skill points to get there. At 20K HP this is just shy over 500 more HP. It's not a worthwhile investment for ANY spec of Powertech.
Degauss - Oh great, you can break a root! Well, yes and no. Degauss is a one time thing with your energy shield, once it breaks any snare or root can be reapplied. As a downside as well this talent forces you to use energy shield situation-ally, when you should be using it any chance you get to survive longer. If this talent ever provides immunity to snares and roots it would be great, for now it's useless.
Gyroscopic Alignment Jets - Most of the PvP Builds have this over Vent Heat. In a long PvP Battle, with the amount of CC that is out there you'll get better heat management out of it. It's always running. You can vent a large amount of heat in the minute and a half you normally would have to wait for vent heat. With the PPA Change as explained earlier, we do not get constant RS's anymore to help keep our heat low, in PvP this talent greatly assists there.
Energy Rebounder - This is the only thing we have to keep our survivability up. In most battles it will keep the skill down to just a minute cooldown which is very nice.
Automated Defenses - Another great talent, but best used in PvE. Reason being, quite frankly, it's hard to pull 2 more points out to fill out that talent (unless you are doing 5/3/33 for instance). It's not a talent you take for Kolto Overload, but you take it for Thermal Sensor Override so you'll have more opportunity at a free ability to use.
Bursting Flame - A staple of the Pyrotech Tree and what enables Flameburst to add the dot from CGC to it. The *huge* DPS Benefit of this is the fact it adds the first dot tick instantly. So basically everytime you Flameburst, you get the first dot tick of CGC with it as well. Oh by the way, this dot can crit around 1K at times also.
Section H. - Thermal Detonator vs Non-Thermal Detonator
This is always a debate that comes up between builds that have this talent and builds that do not. My personal preference is with TD Builds, however, a Non-TD Build is in fact Viable.
The thing about TD is it gets benefit from the Surge talent for 30% more damage, something Explosive Dart does not. This results in some cases 4.5k-6K TD Crits depending on the target and what buffs you have available. ED will never achieve those numbers. The benefit to this is because our chain burst was lowered a bit with the patch, TD provides a great filler in between PPA Procs to keep high damage attacks on the target.
Catch is though, if you do not keep TD off cool down you lower the value of it greatly. If you aren't using it as much as you should, perhaps the Non-TD Builds WILL be better for you as you get a bit more base stats and crit as a result.
Another aspect of TD is it does share the cool down with ED. In a situation where you are sure to be AOE'n a group down, using ED for the AOE of that as well is a great adding to DFA's damage.
I would like to add though, in a sustained battle (PvE) the builds are VERY Comparable. Coming down to which ones gets luckier with crits.
Section I. - Basic Rotations and Burst Potential
The opening for a Pyrotech is fairly simple in practice, considering you have Thermal Override off cooldown.
TO - IM - TD- RS - FB - RS (If PPA Procs)
This leaves you back to starting at 0 heat since with the two RS Procs and using TO at the start, while staying below 40 heat, the dissipation left you at 0 which is great.
IM is aways great to use to open up at Range so you can get a RS off. However, it is very heat intensive so using it constantly will overheat you quickly, it's recommended to save it for the range or if TO is available. Otherwise rely on FB to add the burning dot you require for the rest of your abilities.
So what happens now that your PPA is on it's 6 second Internal Cooldown.
If Thermal Detonator is Available - Use it
If Rocket Punch is Available, AND ICD is still active - Save it
Otherwise use Flameburst.
The reason you want to save Rocket Punch, is it provides a higher chance at a PPA proc. Plus, the damage of it is LESS than a FB/CGC combo that occurs. It is better off used to proc PPA and keep higher burst than to pretend you are Ryu about to Dragon Punch Bison.
To further give an example the rotation with heat management, in best case proc scenario. (I tried to capture the heat the second I got the ability off so it may be a point or two off but just to keep things general)
TO - IM - TD - RS - FB - PPA RS > 0 Heat - FB - FB - RP - PPA RS > 21 Heat - FB - TD - FB - PPA RS > 43 Heat
So in that time you managed to get 13 attacks off and you are just now breaking the 40 Heat thresh-hold. Not to shabby. Don't forget thoguh, like I stated this is best case proc scenario. If you are not getting PPA Procs your heat will continually rise to the point of overheating. It is not normally feasible to Rapid Shot in PvP against an opponent or you risk dying, or you risk not doing enough damage and they can out heal you.
In a PvE Environment, after the first PPA Proc I like to Rapid Shot before I use any other ability (Or twice depending where my heat is at). This allows your heat to dissipate as well as run the timer on the ICD a bit to provide greater proc rate.
Lets revisit that opening rotation in regards to burst, I'll use relative numbers of what I personally see (Yours will vary based on gearing) but just so you can have an idea of max burst potential of this class. This little diagram is considering a 100% crit rate because you sacrificed a goat to an RNG god somewhere.
[0 Secs] TO + IM
[1.5 Secs] TD
Use your Cooldowns, Explosive Fuel, Adrenals. TD will be affected by the cooldowns here if it's already on the target.
[3 Secs] Rail Shot (5K Damage)
[4.5 Secs] Flame Burst + CGC Dot Tick (2K+800 Damage)
[5.5 Secs] TD Explodes for 4.5K Damage
[6 Secs] PPA Proc'd RS for 5K Damage + Refresh of CGC Dot Tick
[7.5 Secs] Flame Burst + CG Dot Tick (2k+800 Damage)
So this is why people hate us in PvP. Because in 7 and a half seconds you just managed to do over 20K Damage to your opponent. Keeping in mind in actual practice you will rarely get that many crits, even with cooldowns. But it *is* what is possible.
Section J. - Gearing Recommendations
You can do a lot with your gear here to fit how you want to play. The basics you should worry about revolve around two stats.
Surge to 75%
Crit(Ranged) to 25%
Shoot for those. From there you now have a decision to make. There are two paths you can take, one is stacking Power on most of your mods or enhancements, the other is getting a balance between Crit and Power.
My personal preference is stacking power. This gives your base abilities a bit more damage, but most importantly it makes your burst with cooldowns unmatched and you'll get the most of those.
Crit however, isn't technically a bad stat to have either. It helps emulate our cooldown burst more frequently throughout a warzone while our cooldowns are down. Regular attacks hit a bit weak, it's the crits where we make up all of our damage at. It's best to just play a bit in each and figure out what you like best. If you are having lower performance with one after a few warzones, try the other. If you do better with that, stick with it.
As far as armor sets, for Pyro, you should be looking at the Eliminators for the 15% Rail Shot Crit. Combat Tech (PVE) will provide 8% RS Damage, which due to the amount of RS you had prepatch, were great. Since they are not as common, having a higher chance at a crit so far, provides a higher dps gain in both PvE and PvP.
If you are looking to stack power, you'll want the War Hero Eliminator's Boots. These provide a high Power/Surge enhancement, as well as a power Mod. As a plus it's also the cheapest item we have to buy which makes it worthwhile.
-------------------------------------------------
More to come to this guide but I wanted to get this out to you guys for now.
-
best offensive with the best defensive cooldowns. thats the problem
I'd still argue Force Shroud is greater than Undying Rage any day of the week. Although their other cooldowns trump what Sins have as a whole
-
It's becoming a bit expensive to maximize your gear at this point. 120K per Campaign / WH piece and than whatever absurd amount they'll add to these Augment Tables.....
-
Eh, the fact you can't equip a main hand for the ship droid will make it weaker than Mako no matter what.
PvP Pyro 1.2 Impressions so Far, Modding Tests.
in Vanguard / Powertech
Posted
I switched to alignment jets a few weeks ago when somebody earlier in this thread mentioned that.I haven't missed Vent Heat cooldown since. So many knockbacks, stuns, etc going around and unless my eyes deceive me, GAJ doesn't have an ICD so my heat stays very low.
