I have a 60 Van tank, 60 Gunslinger, 60 Operative healer. I also have a 55 Sorc, Merc & Jedi Sentinel. I have been a leader, healer, tank, or DPS in multiple MMO's and in SWTOR from Beta. I cleared up through NiM SnV with my Operative healer and then took a break. I am open to playing any role with the right group that is looking for another dedicated raider that shows up on time prepared. I have a flexible schedule so am open to at least two nights a week of solid raiding time, just can't do APAC.

How has no one mentioned the Ultimate Classic Song of all time for IA? Secret Agent Man

Bump because this is stupidly dumb. Please fix this in a hotfix ASAP! I came back for the expac not just to play S&V HM with my guild which is fine. I came back as well to finish things I hadn't before like getting HK-51. Now that Cybertech is TOTALLY useless the only thing it is good for is making droid parts for HK-51 owners. Guess what mats you need for that? Molecular Stabalizers that only drop in what Operations?? So you remove it from my LFG tool after I hit 55 but I should be able to que up for worthless PvP or worthless SM FP? So my only option is go old skool and spam and work SUPER hard to get my own group together from those who haven't turned off General chat on the Fleet or get my end-game raiding guild mates to some how care about spending hours running Operations they have already done a bajillion times so I can pimp out my droid? You could have new subscribers getting baller heals from me in content you've already built but instead: FAIL.

Yeah here is the timeline of how you feel about "Agent Giggle" : 1. *** is that? 2. Ok that is definitely the same laugh happening repeatedly... but why? 3. <look online> OH. TA, got it. 4. Ehh ok, audio cue is handy cuz the buff icons are hard to see 5. Ha ha, take that Jedi scum I GIGGLED as I killed you! 6. No, fellow raiders, I can't turn it off sorry. 7. <sigh> TA is always up when I am doing anything important anyway I don't need this cue 8. **** YOU *********** ******* YOU SOUND LIKE A *********** RETARD!!! Please, please please remove this from the game and/or give us the ability to turn it off. It is bad enough I can't rip the vocoder out of 2V-R8 but at least I GET that protocol droids are annoying (hence left on the effin ship)... please make my main toon less annoying tho... I think after months of listening to it I will seriously not care about mechanics and probably start doing borderline-psychotic things like throwing his lifeless virtual body off cliffs while he is giggling.... Just saying... FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAKE IT STOP.

If they aren't going to add a Neutral Faction (seems like a TON of work tbh but maybe in two years for a big Expac) I think they should add some sort of Force Bard class to each faction. Bards in RPGs are generally not upsetting to the existing classes and tend to be a Support class (Jack of All Trades, Master of None etc.) Can't think of a better name for it tho For Neutral Faction I'd go: - Setup quest chain to allow Smugglers & BH's who WANT to to switch to this faction (forcing players to switch faction = good way to lose players). If you want to role a new Smugg or BH for this faction fine. This would help keep the total amount of new quests/class story they'd have to create for this faction to a minimum. - Gotta have TWO Force-sensitive classes to maintain balance amirite? They could of course introduce some new un-discovered stuff but this would not be my favorite choice as the EU already abounds with possibilities. The two most likely existing, and timeline appropriate force-sensitives imo are: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Aing-Tii & http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Baran_Do Possible Advanced Classes: Aing-Tii = Warriors (Tank or DPS) & Flow Walkers (Heals or DPS) Baran Do = Justicar (Tank or DPS) & Seers (Heals or DPS) This would of course necessitate adding these as playable races too and writing some bridging Lore to fit it into existing histories etc. but totally doable, albeit a hefty undertaking. Honestly, I'd be happy with a new race for each existing faction in the next 18 months sometime. I HOPE they do not allow Jawas <le sigh> and instead go with something like Rodians for Empire and Drall for Republic.

I have been doing lvl 50 Ops, HM's and PvP as IA-Operative-Medic. This is 100% my take on the situation. I could write a 30 page paper explaining how we are gimped right now for PvE heals and what our weaknesses in PvP could be its own dissertation. I do not like being carried, but I DEFINITELY feel like I am being carried right now by my guildmates and teammates in pvp. Maybe I am the bad-luck guy though? Because I played Holy Pally in WoW for 5 years and got **** on constantly. I really don't know what I am going to do to be honest, I am not going to spend another year of my life playing THE WORST HEALER in a game. Here I thought I was safe because I was picking a class with weak armor and HoTs... surely they wouldn't make THAT the worst healer right? FAIL. I don't really want to play a BH-Merc but since we already have a quality Sorc I will probably end up starting one if my Operation tonight goes the same way it has so far. Sucks that it'll be two months before I have a BH-Merc caught up though since I won't be able to level him like I did the IA due to planned time off etc. In PvE I just spam HoTs and KInj, SP is purely a gamble button for me. If I feel like I have a TON of HoTs rolling out there I'll gamble that I can slap a few SP's on a target in a row (works in PvP too). Please note, this IS a gamble lol. So if it is serious content it is HoTs and Kinj. Kinf is only for when you are being focused in PvP and can't get a full Kinj off So everyone here who has actually played the IA-Op-Medic at max level in Operations, Hardmodes and PvP has already said it. We need to be able to bubble others, some different energy regen mechanic or SOMETHING. The only way I can dominate healing in PvP is if I healbot a Sith Juggernaut right now and he guards me non-stop. So PvP I am less concerned with, PvE.... Hardmodes are a ****in ***** as this class >.<

Seconded. While leveling, yes, it was fun to play with Concealment and stab fools. But when it comes down to brass tacks in both pvp and pve I agree with quikscope.

QFT I definitely concur that it seems to happen when I am queuing a rapid series of abilities. My guess is that the inputs aren't being sanitized properly somewhere in the combat code, thus the animations go off fine etc. but the game skips over the result of said action. I expect this will be an easy fix and should be part of a patch ASAP. Can't imagine BW doesn't realize the severity of this issue on end-game content etc.
