1) I play a Watchman PvP Spec, and I'm mostly considered "overpowered". The thing I've noticed though by talking to other Sentinels and good players is that we aren't overpowered at all. Anyone who knows how to play their class would be considered "OP" by most. There are a lot of Sentinel players who don't quite understand how the class is played (which is a vast majority of Sentinels), so those Sentinels are never a threat. The Sentinels that are considered "OP" are the ones who know how to play their class. I always seem to get some complaint about how me hitting 400k damage in a Warzone makes me "OP" even though I just do what every other good Sentinel does. I feel like we aren't "OP" simply for the fact that if we were, even the lesser skilled Sentinels would be topping the leaderboards (which they aren't). So all in all, I think are class hits the mark on what it should be doing damage wise. With the abilities presented, it definitely is a well made class. 2) I perceive my own spec to be a very good one to play as a Watchman Sentinel. I PvP mostly, but even for PvE content I never have any problems outputting tons of damage and holding my own as my PvP spec. The way I have it laid out works for both PvE and PvP. Sentinels all the way! Altâïr - Drooga's Pleasure Barge

As cool as this is, I think they should stick with 16 lol.

Also agree! I've had to delete so many characters just to play another class. This would be amazing to have!

I've only leveled a JK to 50, but personally I enjoy the Knight better than my Warrior. Mainly because I'm not into the whole dark side kill all attitude and who mean guy feel the warrior brings. I loved the Jedi knight story though, it felt very heroic. And Doc is the best companion ever (besides Blizz).

I don't think that is true since I have one from Mako for BH and one from Doc for JK.

Now to see who will be the first to get 16 50's (1 for every AC). but to stick with the thread, congrats on the 50! I know I wouldve never been able to stick through it that long.

Although I don't have any pictures, almost all of the orange trooper gear you can use. It's all heavy armor so Guardian is your only option. What you will have to do though is replace all the mods in the trooper armor with knight mods in order for it to work with your class. So you will be spending a lot of credits on armor, but it is definitely worth it if that is what you want your character to have.

I'm still trying to figure out what was so hard about this mission. When I beat it (solo'd and first try), I was level 48 and T7 had a level 40 motor in him (being the only modification). The only thing I did was when the clones pop I killed the clones and with T7 (while he was actually still alive) I use him to target the other clones and would kill those. And even if you didn't really use T7, you could pull aggro and force sweep killing all of the clones at once. Honestly, it is really just a simple tank and spank fight. If you are having trouble, pop your CD's and if you have them, relics. Maybe it is hard as a Guardian, but as my Sentinel the fight was incredibly easy. I thought one of the bosses on the Firedtorm mission was hardly (mainly because when I did that quest I was only level 44.) All in all, I think as long as you spec'd properly (I just happen to play in a PvP spec), you know your rotation, and you have situational awareness, the fight is quite easy.

So I was wondering if anyone has tried leveling by only doing PvP and their story quests with no sides, and having the war zone character perk experience upgraded to tier 5. Is it an efficient way of leveling that is close to being equivalent or is better than leveling by side quests? I read that you should be able to just PvP and do your story with no side quests and still level just as fast with the perk upgraded to tier 5. So is that true? All input is appreciated. Thanks for answering!

Can anyone confirm that the damage was decreased for Guardians? I remember BW saying they were going to alter something on the guardians in 1.2, and then the community said no and they didn't do it. So I'm just wondering if anyone has proof that they actually put in the nerf on damage for this class or not. Thanks for the answers!

This thread is an all opinion based thread. But here is the question: Should Commandos have gotten the battle rifle and Vanguards got the assault cannons? Now I know why commandos had gotten the assault cannons (bigger guns = more damage), but to me it seems like commandos should have the smaller rifles and a vanguard can sit there and be a literal tank with an assault cannon. It is kind of dumb, but that is the only reason I won't play as a commando. When I think of a trooper commando, the first thing I think of is the game Star Wars: Republic Commando. And if I remember correctly, never once in that game did you walk around with a huge assault cannon. And not to bring real life into the mix, but when I think of commandos I don't think of soldiers walking around with massive cannons. So those are my thoughts. So what do you think? Any and every opinion is welcome, I gave my two cents, now I'd like to see what everyone else thinks.

So with the "paid" transfers can we go where ever we want to? Or is it basically go to the server they tell you, and there should be plenty of people on it for the free transfer?

Now I'm about to sound like a complete idiot, but I thought they were giving optional server transfers and they weren't merging?

They are all different levels of gear. From best to worst: Campaign Rakata Columi Tionese You basically want the gear that has Absorption and Defense ratings from what I understand. I don't tank, so I could be wrong, but as far as PvE gear goes I think that's right. I know War-Hero is the top tier then Battlemaster for PvP. But I'm not sure the order of the other ones. Hope this helps!

He isn't hard to beat. I killed him as a level 41. You just wait a second for the other guys to pull aggro. Then you attack. It was really easy imo.

I believe Sentinels have the hardest learning curve, seeing as how you have an opening rotation as well as having to deal with situation awareness. I personally used Kira up until I got Doc and haven't looked back since. Here is a video of myself playing my Sentinel and the rotation I used until I passed 40. Note: 1) I am level 39 in this video, but the rotation is very similar. 2) I apologize for the laughs that peak the audio that you hear, though the audio is not important so you can mute it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAUsn6FPAo8 Hope this helps a bit! I'll post up my rotation if you are having any problems figuring it out.

Right there. Even if someone says, "Oh, that is only a one time thing." For the fact that it happened makes it possible. Therefore, with that picture, it looks like Guardian DPS is a very viable option. I believe it is the player that makes the character good. As this picture shows, if you know what you are doing, you'll do great.

I honestly don't think all classes should be lined up perfectly with DPS. That would make it so it didn't matter what class you chose because they would all be the same. Sentinels have two sabers and Guardians have one, therefore, Sentinels should put out more DPS, period. I don't have a Guardian so I can't speak from personal experience of playing the class, but playing against the class, they seem to do fine. What they lack in DPS they make up for in Defensive abilities. PvP isn't about getting the most damage or whatever, it's about winning the game. I'm going to be a little bias here and say if all you are worried about is damage, roll as a slinger or scoundrel. Because they pump out damage and have a trillion different stuns so you'll never die.

I had just hit level 30 when I faced him. I died twice before really seeing how I was suppose to beat him. Just Force Kick every time he uses that thundering blast or whatever. Pop relics and CDs and you should be good. Didn''t drop below 50% after I did what I just said. Wasn't a hard fight, just need a decent reaction speed and have an ability queued up instantly. Also, I am Watchmen spec if that helps in anyway.

Thank you! That was a great answer and helped me out a ton!

I would just like to see light pop servers combined. Just for the fact that since it is near impossible to find any FPs to do with random people or even Heroics on planets. Sitting on Hoth with 2 other people isn't my idea of an MMO. I love this game and will continue playing, but my main concern is the server pop. Once that is fixed, it'll give myself A LOT more things I can do.

I for one will stay subbed, because my friends and I quite enjoy the game. Doing every single side quest and leveling characters as a group is really fun. In my opinion the game will only get better. And if something doesn't fit right, you roll with it and keep playing as long as it entertains you. I have a TON of alts, and I'm already thinking about making another one just because the class looks exciting.

A lot of people are requesting this. A lot of people are requesting a lot of things. It isn't as simple as 1, 2, 3 with the coding, etc. that has to be involved just to do some of this stuff. I agree a server merge is quite needed since I haven't been able to run a FP past Mando Raiders, since there is no one on my server to play FPs with. But still I say give Bioware some time, I'm just hoping 1.4 has what everyone is looking for and they fix a lot of the problems there.

I'm saying though, just for any bound item. I think it would be a great addition. I have the tokens for the Rakata gear, but I want to send those tokens to an alt, instead of them just being worthless drops.

I got kind of a mixed review there in answers haha. So which is better for tanking PvE (sub 50 and end-game).
