So I am currently leveling a Marauder, lvl 23, and an Operative, lvl 40. I am having a hard time picking one for a main in pve and also pvp. I am loving both classes for many reasons and I have always been a melee type of person. What the issue I am having is the bad wrap against ops for being bad in pve ops. I know where is a buff coming in 2.6 but I am still having a hard time picking one to main. Any insight and advice would be helpful. Thanks

I am having a hard time picking a class to play as a main in both pve and pvp because well.. I enjoy aspects of all of them. I currently am leveling a Pyrotech Powertech, Lethality Operative, Ann Marauder, and Marksman Sniper. I LOVE the mobility of the PT, Operative, and Marauder I LOVE the stealth ability of the Operative. I love the damage of the sniper. I am told that some of these classes are over-looked in end game pve setting. I am wanting to find one character that I can do very well in WZ's and also smash faces in PVE. I am a great MMO player and can adapt to any of the play styles. I have always played melee until I played around with range and I like the range classes in this game more than melee. This game seems to be a little more ranged friendly even though its supposed to be a balanced game. Melee get wrecked in both pve and pvp it seems but I have yet to get past level 40. My highest character is a Sith Sorc which I also love but I am told they are not as powerful as they used to be as a dps in pve and are also very tunneled in pvp.

I am currently playing on a laptop with a chipset grapics "card" and it is really choppy and annoying. I am going to have to use my laptop more and more for school as I am moving into my third year and want to get rid of all of the gaming stuff that bogs it down. Here is a computer I am looking at getting and maybe can get some feedback on it. Also if anyone has suggestions for a budget gaming computer let me know.
