40.67% DR ? Cool story brah!

We have a video in HD of the fight here, with camel leg position, Stacking up on the droids, pulling ppl out from the camel and how you should TANK kephess. It just takes one kill, then its farm-status. good luck! / Zacke @ Tomb or freedom nadd.

Kephess HM - http://www.torparse.com/a/14485 Dont have a storymode log, I'll do one today. Assassin TANK (MT). ps. As my combat log shows: % Hits Damage Type Total Damage 69.04% 212 kinetic 388850 13.94% 52 energy 78527 Almost 70% of the damage in kephess fight is shieldable. This is a video of us doing it POV = The other assasin (We use two assassins as tanks).

I successfully MT Kephess 8-men HM with my gear the other assassin has almost exacly the same setup (we are two sin tank and it works fine). 31/0/10 with "extra" point in nerve wrecking for +3% dmg boost to ops on bombers in kephess fight. Buffed for ops: Rakata fortitude stim + BH buff HP: 26209 Defense chance: 28.23% Damage reduction: 40.25% (6141 armor) Shield chance: 45.41 (DW: 65.41%) Shield absorb:50.48% Unbuffed with dark charge. HP: 24000 (exacly) Damage reduction: 40.25% (6141 armor) Defense chance: 27.2% Shield chance: 45.41 (DW: 65.41%) Shield absorb:50.48% Link to mr robot ( not updated): http://swtor.askmrrobot.com/character/40442ed5-c8d5-40bb-8625-f41f686bf6ba Im using Campaign relic of imperiling serenity to get a "extra" cooldown. But Im not sure if it's bis / best practice. What are you ppl "targeting" for? Should I remove some fortitude augments for mitation stats? Thanks in advance / Zacke.

Ive read through the parse of EC HM, and you are right! Shield and absorb does nothing for you since it's all non-shieldable dmg. For EC, go with defense and a big pile of HP. /Z

1.Make sure Darkward is up at all times. 2.Wither gives a your mob a debuff -5% dmg 5% less dmg is really alot. But it's AoE so watch out so you dont break crowd controlled targets. 2.Discharge gives a your mob a debuff -5% accuracy 5% less accuracy is a boost to survivability. But it's AoE so watch out so you dont break crowd controlled targets. 3. Shock is good for aggro management, so is wither and force pull. 4. If your are going to use mass mind control, make a quick estimate on how many targets that are going to hit on you and use defensive cooldowns before activating it. Force shroud or deflection or tank relic. 5. A good start to build aggro is force pull (if possible), mindcontrol, wither,shock, discharge,shock/wither and then force lightning with 3stacks of harness darkness. !! Try to learn early to not be life depending on mindcontrol. In end-game content mindcontrol will be used for switching tank targets and should never be "on cooldown". Good luck with tanking!

Ty. As I figured I can miss a saberstrike once a while np But missing a taunt or chain-lightning with 3 hd stacks wouldnt be fun...

Hello! I have a question about the accuracy stat. How important is this stat for tanking? My stats atm: Accuracy: 99% (melee) 108% (force) Armor - 6914 43.03% Dmg reduction 28.01% Defense chance 54.70% Shield chance 34.50% Absorb Reason I want to know is I RE Blackhole gloves enhancement and learned Advanced Bastion Enhancement 26 Thinking of replacing some of my other enhancements with this new (61) enhancement, but stats on it is: Armor Rating 146 +45 Endurance +57 Shield Rating +22 Defense Rating Some of my current enhancements have +accuracy, have I safe gimped accuracy for shield and defense. Can my taunts now miss? I can prolly add up to 100% by adding augment to lightsaber , bracers and gloves. Or when I augment my items can I add more defensive stats? This question is for operations bosses if that is relevant. Please don't link to another post with Tanking 101 teory stuff, Ive read most of them.

Made me laugh.

I've read alot of forum posts and patch notes. Still before I start destroying items. Please if anyone knows this would be nice to NOT destroy items. To summarize: Can I reverse engineer the following for schematics: Battlemaster / war hero offhand, Relic? Enhancements 24,25,26? Warhero enhancements, BoE enhancements from denova, HM ops? Crystals? What can be reverse engineered for schematics when it comes to Artifice. Please if anyone have a img of a successful RE of anything that resulted in a schematics post it here please.

Will still be active at patch 5.0 and people will ask you how you get the "founders" title..

Love it, almost addicted in some way....

I can complain too, WAR HERO assassin leggings design look retarded. But upside just move armoring mod. PRO! Energy surge device rendered useless in PvP. Don't know how to calculate this. Got 1134 Expertise. Worth sacking WH relic 57 expertise for dmg buff 224 extra dmg / 4.5sec? Anyone? /Zman.

PvP is awesome, now it takes a bit more skill. Increased damage and lowered mitation. Before patch I could easy pickup ball + one pocket healer and walk slowly to goal. No way of doing that now. I love it! I love sitting with my mates on TS and work for winning. PvP is now exacly as I should be! Awesome job BW! Gives rewards for passing, scoring, capping a node ALL IMBA changes.

Nobody cares about you, roll back to kitchen diabeto!
