Currently, I am leveling my PT as Shield so I can get the general idea of how it works and such, but my server seems to only have PVP PT's and or not so willing to communicate. Could someone point me in the right direction as far as our stats go? And or what I should aim for in terms of stat prioritizing? Any help or feedback would be muchly appreciated. I want to break the cycle/norm of Jugg's tanking and have a lot of fun with this class. Thanks ahead of time.

Good Morning Everyone, I write, because I am interested in trying something new, the BH and IA storyline have me intrigued, but I got bored on my operative, and wanted to take a chance to possible tank. And as a lover for ranged(and sometimes upclose) tanking.. I figured I would give PT a whirl. Could anyone give me any starting feed back, as to what stats to pay attention to and what crew skills may benefit me best, being that I will be solo 99.9% of the time? Generally when I play, no one is on and its quiet. So... the better I can do solo, the best? Any advice/tips and such are muchly appreciated. Thanks ahead of time.

Hello Everyone, I am looking for opinions towards which Crew Skills might benefit me mostly. I don't use multiple characters, I am focused on my Vanguard and him only. Currently I am using Cybertech,Scav,and Underworld Trading. While making my own mods has been useful slightly, I seem to be more solo in my PVE experiences. Haven't done many if any heroics or flashpoints. With that aside, I am looking to do what I can to better myself and wanted opinions from others as far as Cybertech, Armortech, or Arms.... in general which and why is all I ask. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Perhaps I should rephrase the triple gathering idea.... professions such as Bioanalysis/Gathering/Diplomacy together can be done, but my real question behind it all was would that be a better route to go to gather materials until I can decide on a real profession that will help me in my leveling endures?

Hello everyone, I am sorry to bother with trivial questions with what works best with this and what works best with that, I have choosen my path as a Vanguard because I like the ideal of it's tanking versatility at a range, and what it can do. Now to the nitty gritty part of this... For the most part I am solo, I really don't have a guild, servers quiet, so I don't get much help that way. All I am really trying to ask is, on my own what stat(s) should I primarily focus on aside from the obvious armor and defense.... and would it be best to have 3 gathering professions until I can harvest enough materials to possibly choose a crafting section? Or even at that any suggestions for crafting abilities at all? I welcome all feedback and any help anyone can offer. Thank you for your time.
