I so love those " prove me that sniper is good" answers... screenshots with decent stats ? Frapsed pwnage ? answer from"good players that dont need to l2p": fake/means nothing/ its still broken/ U played vs ******* etc. Guys, its pathetic :/ No idea why all those decent players try to convince those ppl by giving them free specs/rotations/ helpfull tricks and tips on this forum ? Its not rocket science to master sniper as a mmorpg class. Actually i rolled one after hearing its weakest class there is becouse I like challange...And im disapointed becouse its actually the strongest in many ways.

Ok, im bored with this "immobile sniper" bs, what the hell are u talking about? Ur getting owned by other ppl and U need some excuses to feel better ? Sorc need to stay in place for like 3 sec to do any damage, same with arsenal merc with 1,5 sec cd on tracer/3s for unload. This immobile crap is all in youre head, just becouse U need to push 1 more button before starting to do dps thats not even on gcd...think outside of the box please. The differance between Sniper and those other 2 (dps classes in same bracket called-> "ranged dps") is that sniper's need to push cover before we do dps, and that takes ZERO time, U can start sniping/ambushing/probing them in the same second u pushed cover, its not on GCD. PLUS we got so many bonuses while actually beeing in cover that its just silly...30% damage reduction,higher energy regen, no interrupts, no cc etc. In pvp thats IMBA Im in marksman (and I played both sorc and merc) and I can tell You thatany decent player wont be more immobile as sniper/mark then any of those 2 comperable classes. But it doesnt matter, U and rest of medicore players will whine anyway.

Well, ive actually discovered crouch in beta, helped me in pvp alot, its a shame that instant snipe got around 5-6 sec hidden cd. I dont feel like im even using cover right now, the more u play and get experiance the more natural cover system gets. Not for everyone tho, If ur the "jump for kills" crowd.

Its not that bad tbh, I got 50 pvp/pve merc with "almost" best gear there is and when i was dueling for like 1h with my sniper friend, we were quite close to killing each other EVERY time (I usually won tho becouse I had biochem, but still it felt balanced and every time i had around 10-20% hp)(Arsenal vs Marksmanship). Only thing ive noticed is a lil unbalanced -> Orbital strike/Death from above ... why mercs get their mass aoe at level 10, while snipers get it at 48 ? Please explain this to me...

Yes, ive also thought its this one... till I bought elite corpsman helmet and chest from ah, and only helmet is similiar (with white stripe tho). Nothing else is even close to this trailer set :/

Hehe, yes i know , its awful. But still, Ive never seen anyone wearing it, so if i would find some decent custom colour scheme (and other parts matching) it would make char look quite unique ;]

Hey guys, lately Ive been thinking about making myself some rare and cool looking BH set ... I already got couple (ops and pvp), Now i need JUST for the look Anyway, what i was looking for is this green Columi/tionese variation seen in BH character progression trailer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QnnPg-9em_I http://arcantia.net/www/arcantia/files/2010/06/92dcd525e6bounty.jpg.jpg Anyone got ANY idea if its ingame ? Also, Ive heard there are some quite rare schematics for orange gear in armourmech (from underworld trading). Havent checked this crafting skill so far, maybe someone else have ? Also, I was looking for customisable helmet that looks like this one: http://www.torhead.com/item/bxclr99/blastguard-helmet-mkii (I know there was similiar thread, but im asking couple pointed questions etc. and im bored at work)

Hey guys, Lately i was wondering about end game activities, becouse basicly I think Ive hit a wall here. Done ops/all hm's got t2 pve/pvp (columi/champ) sets and im working on t3 in both, but i was wondering if maybe ther is something more to do ... kk so lets sum it up: 1) Hardmode's 2) Ops 3) Ilum/Belsavis daily quests for rakata ears/implants/ coloured mounts etc. 4) Open world pvp in ilum (after 1.1) (but for what ...? we all already got champ t2 from random bags anyway... so wher's the carrot ? bonus valor?) 5) Wz's daily (ilum, 3 wins + weekly) (again whats the point if we all got champ anyway, 56 lvl mods?) 6) Datacrons + 3x matrix shard relic's 7) crafting RI'ing everything to get epics etc. 8) 50 lvl world bosses (?)Im not sure if it's worth it, becouse i dont know their loot tables. 9) Gearing up companions (for companion duel mayhem), getting affection with them (just for some fun and lore) 10) alt's ? Anyone got some more idea's ?

Well ive read it all and i need to say that basicly: LOOT is a little bit to easy to get. both PVP and PVE. I got my whole Columi set in 4 days of doing Hm's... ~4 days. Yes, im experianced in pve content and mmos so even bugged hm's werent a problem. But still , 4 days is a lil to fast imho... Also, hm's -> loot tables are a little bit to boring, every boss drops certain token, and nothing more (well, 1 crafting mat and tionese schem's). And all semi bosses/minibosses drop crappy implants/ears/gloves etc. Nothing that unique. Also, each boss got like 3-4 items drops, (usually tho i see same drops in every runthrough) No "shiny new weapon or armour" to go there for (just the false emp's HK47 loot table is decent). Most of my guild casuals just skipped whole hm's concept, went to 2 normal mode ops and geared up from 40 lvl leveling greens/blues and pvp gear to columi in 2/3 8m raids ... ummm ok. Where is t1 ? Where is certain level gear requirement etc....? There is only Rakata left for them. And i wont even start on pvp loot, ive seen 50 valor pvpers with Centurion gear, and 25 level pvpers in full champion gear ... something is wrong here...

You guys really think that while picking up my main favorite class I (or anyone else) was looking at which side will have more players to easy win in player capped wz's ? Heh n/c, im fed... "Empire/Rep balance 2:1" Uhmm...ok, in beta it was around 53% to 47% so where did U got those data? n/c

Guys srsly, get a life ...even if its actually true, itll get fixed. But, If Ull actually tell me that U lost a wz, becouse Youre 1 or 2 minute cd skill takes 0,5- sec longer to activate then other classes, its bs and Youre just making up childish excuses. Itll be harsh but l2p

Well, its mostly true,pvp gear is better then blues and some basic 50 lvl gear... but dont forget that this (still) is pvp gearm, it's mostly worse (stat wise) than even basic gear from HM's (for pure tank/pure healer/pure dps etc.) , and If Ur a raider and Ur in a raiding guild You wont have troubles farming those couple HM FP's every day, So basicly Ull gear up way faster doing HM's then farming pvp...And if Youre really unlucky with Youre champ bags it can take awhile to farm whole set. Its still worth it doing daily/weekly Ilum for free bags (its going to be changes soonish, so better be fast)

Well, we had some major laught's when my 50 lvl epixxed Blizz won like 3 duel's in a row with my 44 lvl friend ;] Basicly we were rolling on the floor laughing when he finished off runner with his rocketluncher ;] It was hillarious. Clearly outplayed ;]

Like ive said "when i DPS", yes. If im chasing/kiting I use rail/basic/timed missle(forgot its name)/kolto missle when off cd for heals, sometimes fusion just to dot them so they cant stealth that easily etc. rocket punch for some distance/jet boost -> tracer->unload etc. electro->rail/tracer->concusion->tracer/unload combo etc. Is quite good too. Crit/surge relic + 450 crit adrenal macro -> sweeping strikes/fusion/DFA on stacked up groups works wonders. Loads of advanced tactics/combos out there for thinking players, like ive said, tracer spam isnt the best solution usually, its the easiest (to counter)... plus one single interrupt/stun on those players usually makes them panic. btw, spamming tracer makes u instant priority nuke target in most hutt games. Im on The Ravager, afaik very heavy pvp server (becouse of Ruscorp, and anti-RusCopr pvp guilds) You can come here and try to pvp, i dare You :>

Tracer is simply the loudest spell in game, thats why every one thinks we only spam it ;] My rotation (when i dps) 3x tracer/Rail/unload/tracer -> healzzzzz/basic shots here and there-> supergas + Powershot spam for 10 sec-> tracer/ rail/unload etc. When U just simply spam tracer Ur basicly bending over and waiting to be killed... And nope, im not giving my spec to anyone ;]
