what kind of armor are you using? what cell you have up? ion or plasma or what? do you use a shiled generator or have you forgone its use?

um sorc attacks bypass everyones armor...plus they get a nice bubble of invulnerability, plus a stun that damages, plus other stuns.... its amazing how overpowered they are. you talk like armor has a huge factor. yes light armor is worse then heavy, but not by much. i get chewed alive by sorcerors cause they bypass all my mitigation. how fair is that? meanwhile thier mitigation holds up and they get invulnerability and invis and fast run...its like ***?

I would love to play a jawa...

why? you own ilum...just go to the center battlefield and click all the armament boxes there. republics however have to somehow overcome your overwheling numbers to get kills/sneak into the center for boxes...since all imps are either in center looking for same boxes or outside the republic door i dont see why imps are having an issue... Edit...well there is a timer on the boxes, with so many of you trying to get them i can see how you would have long queues just to get one. either way, a very dumb way for PvP.

first issue here is the belief that there are Tank classes... theres not, there are dual role classes that are meant to be able to do one or the other. in the case of commandoes, they can be a healer or DPS. vanguards can be tank or DPS. on and on it goes across the board. some have a bit more surviveablitlity over damage but its fairly minimal. the issue is simple. we got people here who say if they role with a healer AND another tank putting GUARD on them that are invincable...well duh, you can do that with the most squishy class. through guard and have a dedicated healer on him, hes not going down either. all classes are supposed to be balanced opposed to each other, aka each has a equal chance to kill the other. luck of the crit roll and such aside. currently many tanks are facing an unequal amount of character types capable of utterly destroying them. as a trooper, seeing 4 inquisitors on the other side gets disheartening real fast. sadly its EVERY warzone half the empire team is inquistors and the rest are ops and BHs. every once in awhile you get something else in there. meanwhile ops are cutting through my 75% of my HP before i can even trigger and recover from thier knockdown. inquistors simply spam lightning at me, bypassing virtually all my armor and mitigation, making my survivablity even 1v1 almost nil. why is it that so many people here believe that Tanks should be thre SOLE CLASS SPEC to require a healer wherever they go? Sorcerers? no they dont need one, BHs no they dont need one, on and on yet the Tank, yeah the GUY THAT DOES NO DAMAGE HE SHOULD HAVE A HEALER THEN HES GOLDEN.. LOL comical.

Id be happy if those sith lightning bolts didnt bypass my armor and shields to start. that may have something to do with the imbalance. As a trooper im shocked(pun intended) that apparently in the star wars universe trooper armor doesnt even have the same flame retardant properties a modern day race car driver has... I mean one would think with the non metalic armor and insulating properties of the gear troopers would be a bit more rsistant to the lightning and flame abilities we see in game...

Funny, but dont you think this type of futuristic armor would have at least the same fire retardant characteristics of modern day race car drivers? LOl or decent padding for internal type attacks? earlier in the thread someone said a guy in armor wouldnt be able to handle a fireball...um, im thinking out of everyone a dude geared out in hardened composite armor with fire resistant properties would have the highest chance of shrugging that off. Now i know why my "tank" a fullly shield spec trooper with as much +def and +shield as i can get feels like a pin cushin...

I think yer bugged. blue crystal should be clickable at lvl 45. you can also get the datacron at 45. im currently 47 and just got it. as for the first grapple point, our medic decided to break the grapple early by using a combat ability early. he did this early enough to drop on the large beam extending in front of the grapple point. he then used the grapple again to jump up from there. my suggestion is everyone try it this way.

im thinking theres a bug somewhere for some people, cause im having same issuses. im lvl 38 have 5.5k defense, 8+k health, 10% defense,33%shield, 30%absorb, and people are tearing me apart. trying to do the extract scientist on Quesh and fighting commander Jesh and hes ripping me a new one, last night before patch i was doing awesome, now even the strong gammoreeans with the axes outside are giving me problems, im confused. in PvP dude my lvl rip through me 1v1 in no time and take little damage. seriously like to know what im doing wrong.
