If you're pub add me on Fusebot if you need a Scoundrel for team ranked.

Scrapper is one of the highest parsing dps classes in the game with the recent changes. In 2.7 they will be gaining some added defensives making them more desirable in competitive pvp. They are already decent in casual pvp (reg warzones/arenas).

Grats, 98% on boss as well. Not like the 70/80% padders above you

Well if anyone needs a Scoundrel for something, holler at me.

Read threat title... immediately assumed it was a keensaucery video plug.

Bump. On another note, Scrapper is so much more smooth and fun to play now. Thumbs up to the changes.

Both Med Screen and Smuggled Med Delivery are /facedesk talents. And agree with the above - Scare Tissue!

What's wrong with crit? People use blanket statements to say, "crit is bad this tier" thinking it applies to all classes.. For this class and role, it is a good stat. It does, though, depend on playing style. If you're 470 surge 470 alacrity, swapping for 1 more alacrity piece is smart. We get 30% surge from our tree on our casted heals and kolto cloud, and going down to 376 surge isn't a horrible idea based on what is known about its DR.

In addition to the above: No HoTs on any target, No DoTs on you, None of YOUR DoTs or orbital/flyby out, and you're good to go

And another Double Exp BEFORE NiM DF release, we will have time to gear yet another toon... Can I just cryosleep until then?

no. Bad kraxxoverdrive. Bad.

But... but... SCRAPPER BUFF!

Sure thing. Will do later.

It's true. Enforcer isn't great. But 10% of a very small absorb is like 200 dmg whereas dodge evades 100% melee/ranged attacks. I was under the impression that accuracy debuffs from tanks can take you below 100% tech accuracy. Maybe I am mistaken. Either way, I like to play with some alacrity on my scrapper Probably less valuable after 2.6 Rolling Punches changes though... who knows.

Getting some accuracy is smart, even in PvP. Also, crit should never be talked about in terms of percentage. Rolling punches does now give +6% crit but that does not in any way effect the value for critical rating. You still want to get a bit with the way surge works for the class. The field medic bonus is extremely lackluster. Don't do it.

So back to OP, Haterade server first hateful... grats. You guys excited about 2.6?

That stat priority you provide is a little misleading. For dps, accuracy surge and alacrity are your only 3 options really. With 1 accuracy enhancement you will be at 105% accuracy which is all you *technically* need for PvP. Keep in mind that tank abilities, sentinel pacify, gunslinger diversion, etc. are abilities that reduce your accuracy... and at 1 accuracy enhancement you are already beyond Surge diminishing returns. So I would say that 2 accuracy enhancements minimum makes more sense. Could be 2 implants as well, but you get my point. For the sets, 2-piece PvP dodge bonus and old 2-piece PvE 15% Backblast Crit bonus... just make sure mods/enhancements are < 66 to avoid losing expertise. Relics, definitely Obroan FR and Obroan SA. I cannot speak for the exact crit amount you should use, but some will definitely be helpful. The "Underdog" talent in the 3rd to last tier adds 30% surge to Back Blast, Shoot First, and Flechette Round. With the PvE set bonus and a little bit of crit, you can put out a lot of burst. I'd say get at least 3 mod/enhancements with crit on them. Maybe someone else can speak to this better. Hope I was of help.

Tech Healers, ASSEMBLE!

As people have stated: any DoTs on an enemy or yourself, or any HoTs on an ally or yourself, will cause you to stay in combat. This is also true if you have grenades/flyby still out as well. While you might have been out of combat with the assassin in that encounter, you might have remained in combat with another enemy player. Very possible.

Some people want to use the Recruitment forum to do some actual recruiting... can we stop bumping with all of pointless trolling?...

From the OP: Tuesday 6:30 PST Wednesday 6:30 PST Thursday 6:30 PST Ends roughly 9:30

Scoundrel/Op PvP healers that do not have the old set bonus armorings (63's) should definitely invest in the Arkanian PvE alternative (69's). 15% increase to AoE heal is great. Realize, though, that the higher grade PvE mods will lower your expertise. So throw some 63-66 level mods/enhancements in there, and use the PvP dodge set bonus as your other 2-piece.

Just wanted to take the opportunity to promote a PvE Scoundrel Healing video and guide I put together... Video Guide http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=716417 Thanks, and happy gaming!
