  1. Fun thing is ...those 2 aren't best Best (for stealther) is Cademimu. I started by shadow tank with 258, made 306 in 3 days alone. Also ...tech fragments are split for party. So if u solo then u have 4x more fragments at the end. Later did that one by sent alone too, just to try. Took 38 mins by sent. So well, if you dont like HS- just turn it off. I usually have LI / Kaon only when I want GF.
  2. Are you sure command is not in list ? Because 1st days of 6.0 I saw it can be done, but left for last to do. Then when I got all yellows and went back to command - it says "no research " now ...so I'm not really sure what was that...
  3. Checked tor fashion ....it's old "battlemaster" set, still have it on some chars
  4. No it was not tweaked. Tank with comp still can solo everything ...except mechanics locked like LI.
  5. Was doing Cademimu MM by shadow tank, took 2 nights from 258 to 306, it was around 20 mins / run. Just to try a char did that by sentinel alone too (302 gear, no set, but tacticals). Took around 40 mins run. Once you have any 1 char 306 it can give parts/mods to legacy, so they're all 306 "something". Story modes do low drops as for me. MMs are far more. You just need 50 comp. Easiest way avail for all to get ever 1st 50 - buy "parts" gifts for scraps on bazaar from Jawas, and train you ship's droid to 50. P.S. Bonus bosses drop loot and are 4th in most cases. However, near impossible to fit enrage timer alone. Need 2nd player.

    plz nerf sin

    Well, that's not so bad ...play tank with big shield rate, once per 2-3 wzs sins will finally hit u for 40k once. ...I will be experimenting using shield too on "dwt", as it seems working with any stance now once geared.

    I would say "reverse all mess to 1.0" They added roots, they added resist, etc, etc. Now basically - slows works RARE (because everybody cleanse it, mara does aoe cleanse, can repeat each 10s or so). Roots/force push/force pull - everybody have resists to it now, had hutball when 2 lifts and 2 pulls FAILED because all those micro-resists. then wz ended as we lost already.... Oh ye, and to make things more fun - speeds/slows are plain accumulated, so when mara does 80% boost...there are very rare skills which can beat it like "recovery from kick slows by 90%" ...and mara is ready to just cleanse it.
  8. This means, only dps can/should q. for pvp. No healz, no tanks, no taunts, no guards. Have fun. Otherwise ... mentioned classes somehow intentionally lower own "kills" to help u be more productive. Not fun for em. P.S. about all sorts of hutball ... I would make to lose ball for all kinds of rolls/jumps/teleports. U did roll - u lost the ball (or those skills are blocked at all to use). That will fix - pass or walk.

    I don't realy think ranked designed for tanks at all, as fastest dps wins. So I don't play it at all. However, I should remind that SHIELD RATE is counter crit now. I.e. if anyhow shielded, then not crit. As for 8 vs 8 wzs 1 full tank with "luck always changes" (and shield rate 60%, shadow) can fight against 2 deseptions with all their insane restealthings. For like 40-60s sure.
  10. Reusable meds doing less heal in WZ then WZ heal, and +|- same in OPs as old 600 because of bolster. In true 75 new meds are better. Also not sure about shield, seems stronger in old ops too. But that needs exact measure by tools.
  11. Btw, if any rating involved in match making - it must be separated too, 2 ratings for arenas and objectives.
  12. Google showed me this link 1st by "swtor disable arenas", so bump! (no necro:P) ..any way, please allow to switch - arena/objectives/both. Point is, arenas and objectives are different games and different gear and different skill set (despite both called "pvp"). For example, tank for damage reduction is useless in arena, but most liked in objectives...

    So what's going on?

    Yes, do global search for DiskCache* - it will find 2 more files somewhere in AppData For best resutls those 3 files need to place on ram disk. That was a guide for it on 1.0 years ago.
  14. If you have guild bonus, somewhere in the mid of story on Mek-Sha you will be 75. Next, do no keep old pieces. Update all. You get new drops +/- 4 of your current avr. So less old pieces you have - faster upgrade going. Tanks 75 with 258 gear (and new tactican item) can solo do MM FPs and gear up alone in 2-3 days to 306 (some old FPs supposed to be prior 50, like Athis, Cademimu, Red Reaper maybe). 258 drops in SOLO mode FPs I heard, like directive 7. Just run 1-2 for the start.

    So what's going on?

    Guess will answer fo meself: http://www.swtor.com/community/showpost.php?p=9795235&postcount=16 After moving to ram pvp seems smooth ... So basically, if you feel laggy, quit game, and delete all 3 DiskCache* files. Then it will re-create it, and in case of SSD should be ok for some time until it gets internaly fragmented again.
  16. Guess I found bug ... they put some file named DiskCacheArena to program's folder ...It is new some (was absent 5 years ago). So, if you have ramdsik like (/etc/fstab) tmpfs /ramcache tmpfs defaults,nodev,nosuid,size=8G 0 0 Then u need add this file to ram too (set ur paths on P1): P1="/home/alex/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/SWTOR/drive_c/Program Files/Electronic Arts/BioWare/Star Wars - The Old Republic/swtor/DiskCacheArena" [ -f "$P1" ] && rm "$P1" touch /ramcache/swtor/DiskCacheArena [ ! -L "$P1" ] && ln -s /ramcache/swtor/DiskCacheArena "$P1" So my latest script executed once on logon, then can play swtor ok: Where ~/pre_swtor/ is persistent symlink to /home/alex/PlayOnLinux's virtual drives/SWTOR/drive_c/users/alex/Local Settings/Application Data/SWTOR/
  17. Do you setup ability queue in game settings? It may affect, in other game (RIFT) it was not possible to get top dps if 1 second was not set. Here on swtor I have 0.25s and ..didn't have what you say for many months. It could happen on some huttbals when fps drops to 7.
  18. Thanks, does not look like super power actually
  19. Well, I learned it as had to use fragments.... but any idea what is in box? It costs 30 embers+ and 22+ cq rewards...that must be superpower there for that price.
  20. Use your personal ship ....but it is old way, new way - open galaxy map and click where you want to go. See your keybindings for shortcut.
  21. Have 40+ embers in bag and sold around 30 while prices was high. Just slice-slice boxes until any mission pop, then give that mission to char with proper skill AND 50 comp. Run it. Only by 50 comp. So far had 2 times 0 reward (explicit fail, when comp says "sorry, bla-bla"), most are 1-4. I think guild/sub bonuses on char help too to get crit.
  22. It was before, seems it didnt work. It was adding rebalance issues on each update. Now they can just change max level in their code, like 75 to 80 and all should go ok. At least i would do so, Basically they had to stop at 50 as old raids was 50 based. But they decided don't dig too deep. I think in future we will see this new raid scales down to 75, i.e. instead redoing all raids with new level cap it will auto scale gear to old cap set for this raid properly.
  23. Almost makes, but not. They have F2P players which are stuck at 70/258 and which must be able to play same. Old bolster didn't work and had extra work as you said + any new tires will add more work. Instead, they all put to 70 now. Any new updates can be scaled down and F2P can use old gear with no changes.
  24. 30th level of buf gives 1.5x about then it was with 258 before. 20k crits from tank... which all has sense - F2P players are stimulated to pay and get 75/306. As with their 258 gear they can do but worse a bit.
  25. You can catch into EACH armor mod/piece one of 1. general damage reduction upto 0.5% 2. tech damages reduction 1.5%( or 2 max...) 3. force damages reduction 1.5%( or 2 max...) 4. dots reduction. So you need to play random on your tank to balance all that as you like. However it remains weaker then it was but with bigger damage. So now, unlike full 258 on 5, you need to use defensive cds.
