[Sniper vs Operative, what to pick?]

Hiya everybody!

 

So I got my agent alt up to level 10 and I have run into a dilemma; which specialization to take.

 

On one hand I am planning to make a sorcerer alt too for healing purposes which would leave the operative out of hand and having a marauder already I am not keen on the idea of another short-ranged combat fighter (I like diversity).

 

Which leads me to think that sniper might be fun to play, however due to everyone crying "I got nerfed!" everywhere I am all confused about what to pick.

 

Anyone who have a sniper or operative wanna throw their thoughts at me?

 

Thanks in advance.

[Aszhara vs Revel]

Greetings!

 

I have heard a lot about Aszhara being the better choice over Revel and vice versa. However does any of you have any specifik proof of which is the better or is it purely a religious thing?

 

As I am wondering which one to gear up, I find it important to figure out which one is the better, but allow me to start out:

 

Andronikos Revel

Companion type: Ranged Damage

Armor: Medium Armor

Primary Stat: Cunning

Secondary Stat: Endurance

Primary Weapon: Dual Blasters

Secondary Weapon: Dual Blasters

 

Aszhara Zavros

Companion type: Melee Damage

Armor: Medium Armor

Primary Stat: Strength

Secondary Stat: Endurance

Primary Weapon: Dual Lightsabers

Secondary Weapon: Dual Lightsabers

 

By this measure the only real difference is their primary stat and their weapons, ranged vs melee.

 

So the question;

Which is the better one? I would prefer if we could write something constructive rather than just typing a name here, if it is possible
