For what it's worth, here two pictures with all my processes that are ongoing, If you see anything that seems..."Da hell is that?", Please let me know. http://imageshack.us/a/img69/4231/aaaaaaaaaaaaaaq.png[/img] http://imageshack.us/a/img18/8218/aaaaaagu.png[/img] ((I know it's tiny, best i could do. sorry, zoom might help))

Thanks for the help, three more questions for this hunk of junk machine. 1: I run in windowed (full) Mode in native resolution, so i can alt/tab to chrome occasionally without bugging out my game. (For music/podcasts.)...Is there a less resource intensive browser that isn't firefox or IE that could pull this off? (Firefox thinks all my sites are unsafe. otherwise i'd use it.) 2:I meant using windowed mode as in, if i lower my resolution, to make the visual effect less noticeable. Though, i am curious, does running in pure, dedicated full screen (Where alt tabbing makes the game have to reload) help, or hinder performance compared to full windowed? 3: With my machine and setup, what FPS -SHOULD- i be getting at peak performance, assuming my resources and whatever are totally free, within reason of course, also, how did it run for you? And in what situations, if any, did it drop?

Double post, But what resolution would you recommend to play in windowed mode (Not full) that would not tax the CPU too much?

Hey all, I struggle to have a constant FPS, it always jumps from say, 50, to 45, to 30, sometimes 15-25 on Makeb, Bloom is on, when it's off, there is no difference, Shadows are off, Grass and trees are off, Everything else is high. When i show the FPS, the number is red, I assume this is a CPU thing. Here are my specs Resolution: 1920x1080 (24" monitor, i know it doesn't matter) GPU: GTX 560ti 2GB (Twin Frozr) CPU: AMD Athlon(x4) 645 processor at 3.10 GHz Installed memory: 6gb OS: Windows 7 I run in XP compatibility mode. I am saving up for the Ode V2 level 2 gaming computer from digital storm (Can't link it right now, Digital storm's website is busted on my browser right now.) but i feel like i might as well enchance my SWTOR performance while i wait. My FPS also plummets whenever i enter combat or another player walks by. I usually have google chrome and steam in the backround I did set the game's priority to high.

To all who say the Makeb ending proves the emporer is alive...Remember, the Republic has not a damn clue about his immortality, Since they aren't exactly Sith scholars.

This would help out with rotations quite a bit. Any ideas?

I know, I played wow just out of pure curiosity, and WOW, i am much, much, much more thankful for SWTOR pvp. For all the non Wow players. You can have 200k health, and go against someone with a million that does 100k with each attack.

The way i see it is this. You can either lower the cooldown on electronet Or add a gimmick that will just add more ***** for the merc to have to press to have a chance 1v1. The net is the simple change. If people called it OP, it would be wrong.

Seriously?

Skill? Screw skill! I wasted hours of my life for a pair of gloves that make me better then everyone else! Get real.

Oh yeah, i forgot about you. SOMEONE LIKES BOLSTER AND I DON'T LIKE IT, THEREFORE THE GUY WHO DISAGREES WITH ME IS A TROLL!

Me no like to work for my kills, me like to headbutt desk until red name goes gray. hkmedrqoliwfahioujnhwadfn wemawhioqfgeimhijwe You are dead red man! Tiny blue saber no match for my mighty headbutt.

This is what i'm trying to say, All bolster is doing (in it's non exploited form) is giving smart players a FIGHTING CHANCE against well geared players. The geared player has an advantage, But the bolster player can still win if he plays his cards right. The exploits need to be fixed, after that, things should be fine.

(Beware the caps lock, And potential flamers.) OPERATIVES ARE OVERPOWERED, THEY ARE ABLE TO -ROLL-. AND ALL THEY HAVE TO DO IS DRAIN THEIR RESOURCES COMPLETELY! SNIPERS ARE SO O.P GUYS, IT'S LIKE SNIPERS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE GOOD AT DOING LONG RANGE DAMAGE OR SOMETHING! HEALERS HEAL WAY TOO MUCH! TANKS TAKE TOO MUCH DAMAGE BEFORE DYING NOW, DPS DOES WAY TOO MUCH DPS. THIS ONE CLASS KILLED ME BECAUSE I GOT OUTPLAYED ONE TIME, NERF IT, NOW! A STEALTH CLASS HAD THE AUDACITY TO OPEN ON -ME!- ME! THE GOD OF WARZONES, AND HE -KILLED- ME WHEN I TRIED TO RUN AWAY LIKE THE MACHO MAN I AM, THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE, I DEMAND A NERF! UNSUBSCRIBE! TWO SNIPERS FOCUSED ME AND I DIED, NERF NOW! BOLSTER IS SO BROKEN, AND I DON'T MEAN THE EXPLOITERS, I MEAN, THE WHOLE IDEA OF HAVING TO WORK FOR MY KILLS, WHAT THE HELL BIOWARE?! Anyone feel like adding anything? Basically just venting after reading some really -stupid- posts.

I said i was going to ignore people who whined. Not all who disagree. And to clarify, The idea of bolster, once/if they fix the stupid issues with it's scaling is perfectly awesome. Unless you are one of those idiots who thinks just because you no-lifed your way to top level pvp gear you deserve to faceroll everyone skilled and unskilled. Skill>Gear should always be the case, Some retard pushing three buttons but has top level gear should not be able to take on someone utilizing their class right.

While i'm fine with the new bolster, excluding the occasional exploit and the stupid scaling...This would be a much less messy way to handle this.

That's an issue worth fixing. I'm talking about bolster on players without stupid exploits like that. Things like THAT need to be fixed.

People with max pvp gear will have a distinct advantage, But a skilled player with less gear can still use his smarts to take the maxed character out. Skill>Gear, I like it. Thoughts? Whiners will be ignored. Edit: I do think they should fix it's scaling though. A dude running around naked or using greens from level 49 shouldn't be allowed to hurt anyone.

Hey all, thought i would start this to make it easier for people to find a "Go-to" area for builds that are viable for the sorcerer class. I run pure lightning exclusively, so i won't be much help here, but i thought maybe you guys could put down your favorite ones that get the most effectiveness. The reason i post this is because it seems like it should have been a thing for all forums awhile ago. But you only really have guides that focus on 1-2 good builds and say the others suck, or whatever. I'll put down a template that you can copy/paste that tells us about the build you are posting for people interested. (Insert link here) Copy below line ------------------ Role: Aoe, single target, or both: Rotation/timing of burst: Mobility: Ease of use: Poster's experience with the build: Recommended stat totals: Poster's comment(s): ------------------- Copy above line

Personally, i'd like to see a blueish cathar, like that one officer on Makeb, would be pretty BA on a marauder or something. ...A black colored voss with red eyes would be awesome too, strange with the british accent, but still.

As the title says, this class is probably more prone to "Bads" then most, as a result, i'd like to see the many fails you guys have come across recently. Why? BECAUSE I'M BORED FROM GRINDING MAKEB.

Hey all, After leveling my assassin through makeb and playing both of these guys afterwards, i realized they both make my Sin seem weak in comparison, The mercenary nukes the crap out of things and the operative just overwhelms mobs sometimes, So since i have limited time, i'm wondering if i had to choose one of these things, which one would do better.. How do both scale in the endgame? I'm leaning on the merc because he hits like a mac truck loaded with nuclear bombs driven by Sweet Tooth, But i'm wondering if the operative is competitive at endgame? both are level 51 currently.

You are one of the most clueless people I've met on these forums.
