Big thanks to everyone that contributed, especially Shmn with his very informative post. And to G-Seven for entertaining videos. I enjoy the class and the story and I'll be sticking with it.

I'm level 27 so far, and only have had limited low level experience immediately when the game came out. Based on forum attitude, it seems as if Sith Assassins get trounced in PvP repeatedly and there is nothing but doom and gloom at 50. Is there anyone that actually ENJOYS playing at 50 who could shed some positivity on this? Thanks.
