Energy is a nightmare since 1.2 12 sec Backstab is terrible getting used to and to be honest I don't want to get used to it, getting nerfed 4 times in a row just made me bitter. To do good you gotta use rifle shot between every energy consuming attack which just is not fun. It's awkward and no other class has to do that. We need a 30% execute with very good DPE badly now, better survivabilty CD's wouldn't hurt either. I tried it post 1.2 but every other class I play is just more fun to play than concealment operative. Lethality is more fluid on my sniper, my concealment operative, once my favorite toon is shelfed.

I currently run with 28/11/2 http://swtor.askmrrobot.com/skills/sniper#i898cce3e-600le-c I can pull higher DPS with 2/8/31 on single target but I found the 28/11/2 build to be more powerful. The reliance on Corrosive Grenade with Lethality pisses me off for so many reasons: - Target swapping is a ***** due to the 12 sec CD - The AOE effect is often terrible, for example if CC is necessary or at the 2nd Boss(the 2 Hovertanks) in Denova. I always gotta kick the 2 adds out of the shield in order to not blow up the shield generator with the CG. If you are grouped with a melee in the shield thats a problem - putting a CD and CG on a target before you can do any meaningful dmg is a pain in the *** and often total overkill - With 28/11/2 I can do single target dmg with no reliance on AOE which is very CC friendly. - I can do insane AOE that totally blows Bounty Hunters out of the water with Orbital Strike and Frag Grenade Spam. Which comes in handy on Denovas 3rd and 4th Boss fight HM. - I got a lot more survivability with Ballistic Dampeners and Cover Screen. - I got meaningful dmg during movement with Interrogation Probe, Corrosive Dart, Instant Snipe, Followthrough, 1,5sec Ambush and Explosive Probe - Its easy to build Interrogation Probe into your rotation due to the increased energy from Sniper Volley. - Interrogation Probe is better DPE than Corrosive Dart with a few armor debuffs on target - Imperial Assassin rocks with a few armor debuffs on the target, I do a lot more dmg when paired with a few BH, so I guess they still stack. - I can burst on demand with no setup time with Dots. The 2/8/31 can do good burst, but doing so will leave you energy starved and if Adrenaline Probe is on CD you got a problem.. Katti/Yoli, Darth Traya EU

I would like the giggle to stay, its awesome

Vor kurzem hat mich nen Juggernaut im Zielraum vom Huttenball im Stealth angesprungen und gepunktet, irgendson Bob hat den dann den Rest vom Spiel mit Cheateranschuldigungen vollgespammt. Die meisten Leute haben einfach nur keinen Plan was bestimmte Klassen können...wir haben uns jedenfalls gut amüsiert Auf meinem Scharfschützen wurde ich auch schon in Deckung angesprungen und ich habe 100% die Deckung nicht verlassen, niemand stand neben mir und niemand hat mich rausgeschubst. Ist auch immer derselbe Juggi, muss den mal fragen wie der das macht, muss da irgendnen Trick geben... Aus dem Stand kann er mich jedenfalls nicht anspringen, wenn er das macht hüpft er immer erst durch die Gegend, irgendwann schafft er es dann und is dann auf mir drauf.

Mit T1 kannst du schon einiges reissen, der Unterschied zwischen T2 und T3 ist vernachlässigbar. T2 oft sogar besser, in den meisten meiner T3 Teile habe ich die T2 Verbesserungen drinnen. Schau das du auf so 500-550 expertise kommst, den Rest kannst auch mit PvE equip auffüllen

Why, its not really buffs but quality of life changes for Ops... Sorcs will still heal far more despite all their whining with their slight nerfs...
