am looking forward to some kind of epic storyline covering multiple ops and planets, jaw dropping fightsand camaraderie in order to obtain parts needed to either BUILD a guild base or (Even Better!) Build a Guild Ship (multiples tiers and various sizes) Then being able to use these Guild Ships to expire beyond the Rim!!

Not quite true, I get mezz spammed from the moment I get locked, I can remove stun but then that is it until the cooldown clears 2 minutes later. I get another stun I am just a punchbag until I die (which takes about 3 hits with just under 14k hp) So basically my options are to simply suck it up for 50 Commendations a match until I can get the 2k? I need to get better gear? Thats time I would rather spend having fun

I suggest you reread my OP and then follow the comments down.... then highlight where I am moaning about not being able to faceroll everyone else on a Sage.......

Will have a play around with those specs next time I log in, really want to have PvP fun ingame but it kinda sucks when you may as well just get into a bath and do the laundry the way I get to stand there shaking like an epileptic in a strobe room

Actually never played PvP until I hit 50 and got bored with endgame.....

ComeandSee, Thanks for the informative post. I am currently using this DPS Spec http://www.jedispecs.com/jedi-consular-sage/swtor-jedi-consular-sage-build-telekinetics-dps-spec/ Would this then be the 'worst' spec to use for PvP? or would you recommend the Hybrid Spec instead? http://www.jedispecs.com/jedi-consular-sage/swtor-jedi-consular-sage-build-hybrid-pvp-spec/ I kinda figured it might be something to do with my Spec as I can push out damage like no tomorrow but I fall over like a stunned goat at the first shake of an angry fist

http://massively.joystiq.com/2012/05/15/hyperspace-beacon-swtors-james-ohlen-shares-the-formula-behind/ In PvP, there are ways to counter the health hit you take in managing your resources, and short of telling players what to do and when to do it, we're comfortable with how things are playing right now Are you kidding me? Sage spec here. Lets see anyone (James included) explain to me how I can 'Counter the Health hit'? Get Attacked - Pop Force Shield - BOOM its gone along with about 30% of my health - ok lets try CC that SoB for some breathing Room - Lift cast - BOOM another 20% of my health and they broke the mezz... Hmm lets try my other Mezz (its only 4 seconds but it might be enough) - BOOM cast.. WHUT? no effect? BOOM another 20% gone.. Drop a Med Pack fast.. crap Mezzed by them, OK use my ONLY break mezz - that's it free... WHAT Mezzed again.... Thats it may as well just wait since I cannot break the mezz spams nor can I heal as everytime I start a heal cast it gets interrupted... So not only can we not deal any damage (since all abilities require at least 1-2 seconds to cast and these are interrupted by any other class just hitting us) we cannot mitigate any damage, we cannot shield ourselves from any damage, our crowd control abilities are on 2 minute cool down, our break mezz ability is on a 2 minute countdown, our melee skills are pointless. Cannot even try to run away as JK simply jump to us stunning us, one of the other classes simply pulls us to them and anyone behind cover is immune to any of our CC abilities or stuns and can 2 shot us before we even look at them.

probably not. I noticed in PvP (50 Sage DPS spec) that a Sniper can sneak in, Backstab, CC, then run away, set up cover (or if I break CC then CC me again with something else) and take me down with 2-3 sniper shots. But then people are complaining that Sentinels and Marauders are OP. Personally I think its all down to every class being able to do everything, some can do it better and currently OP can deal out some serious damage, some great CC and damage reduction while most other players find themselves spammed with CC and unable to do anything.

ingame type /cjoin LFG then put message in there like Merc 22 LFG for Heroics and FP that is teh Serverwide custom LFG channel, every server has one now

I actually run H4 missions on my 50 for one reason... Loot and Commendations... as a 50 I can plow through them, get 24 commendations and buy Purple loot box from vendor, use it and then use purple to supply gear to my alts. Also get prototypes from the Champions in the H4 and these drops orange and schematics... Plenty of reasons for H4 to remain

I am at 4/6 myself with today's reset to run, I believe Chest and belt both come from same run? or is it one or the other? Still 20 short for my Crystal too

With limited play time we are not likely to have vast amounts of cash to pay the (upto) 20k per sample people are asking for....

in all honesty the FP were designed to be done with more than 2 players. Esseles and Hammerpoint are easily done with 2 if your over level or have the right 2 players. Maybe LFM to help make it easier? also increase the loot and Social bonus the more players you have in the groups

Proves nothing, Do you know how many Concurrent players cause the server to tick for each population type? Players are spread out across a dozen planets and dozens of servers. Maybe they will condense them down at some point (thus reduce server running costs)

How about making it that this weekend we can run ALL the dailies on the Rakghoul plague without having to wait till the next day? I am a Casual Gamer (work and family limit my game time) and I finally bribed the missus (sent her out for girlie night) so I could run the event. Only to find I can only do a section per day (the containment outfit looks awesome!) and now it looks like I may not be able to complete the questline before it finishes on Tuesday Morning Or you could just get the customer service droid to give me the outfit so I do not go broke Real World bribing the family so I can get some game time to finish the questline?
