Yeah my bad i was reading that wrong, i had a look at mine last night and i am using sith efficacy. much better build, but. now im not sure how you play so this is how i work things. the build you are using looks like a hybrid but imo is still not quite there. and as someone else said backlash is pretty much only usefull in pvp and i use it in WZs. so if you drop backlash you can add 6 seconds to affliction. 1 point lightning spire- extra 5 meters on LS, CL and TB reason: i only use LS or CL on instant proc and dont have TB so 5 meters is a waste of a point. Subversion 2 points - 70% reduced pushback on LS, CL and TB, and LS stacks 10% force regen up to 3 times. Reason- again i only use LS or CL on instant proc and dont have TB, so pushback is a non issue, and as LS is generally a dps loss i never have a 3 stack and i nearly never have any issue with force so i dont need the extra force regen. Those 3 points i would put into Convection - for 6% damage boost on what should be one of your main abilities Crushing darkness. 3% crit chance is not bad but personally i would use those points to get deathmark, which adds 20% damage to periodic abilities such as crushing darkness and affliction which are 2 of the abilities i use most. the points could go to parasitism or corrupted flesh(dont bother upping shock) personally 1% from crits isnt worth it imo 15% reduction from periodics is. eg like this http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#201ZfcMrdoMZcrzRsrk.2

first things first and i can not stress this enough. GET WRATH. if it was my choice i would drop conduction, a max of 3% added damage for 30 seconds is not worth not having wrath imo. this is my build, http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#201ZfcMMdobZcrrRorkM.2 there is no need for sith efficacy because crushing darkness and LS should only really be used as intant cast on wrath proc. 6 extra seconds and 15% extra damage for affliction is good as well becuase every target you fight should be afflicted and death mark adds a further 20% damage to this as well as any other dots you have

never seen a glitch like that but it is possible. as for recklessness. if its not working then i have no idea but as for the double tick on one ability, it depends on what ability you are using as it ticks when you crit as far as i know. i once had it double tick when shock double hit (i hit the wrong button)

^^ this guy. EVERYONE LISTEN TO THIS GUY. totally agreed

Hi all, about to roll a new char as im just finishing my sorc and decided on a gunslinger. I want to know what everyone thinks is the best crew skill for him now 2.0 is on the way. my sorc is almost 400 artifice and i have a powertech that is a cybertech

Bump!

I never normally cosplay due to my not really caring, but with this years Supanova australia coming up i had a think about it. I found this - http://www.buystarwarscostumes.com/chewbacca_authentic.html Now thats pricey, and cant be shipped to aus but it did bring up one huge issue, it is small( pun intended). maybe not for some but 177cm is small. I found this is the same thing for every costume i have looked at. Admittedly it is pretty much a make your own situation i am in as i am a big person( 199cm and solid build). Does anyone know a good way to make a wookie outfit.

that build is a bit of a waste. http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#301hMZbsr0oZfhrbzGhM.2 this build keeps retractable blade if you want it but doesnt have any of the less useful AP skills. also hydraulic overides may seem useful but it is not worth the points required to get it. the same goes for prototype flamethrower. if you do this http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#301ZrsrMobcZfhrbzh.2 you have more points to play with and can drop flame barrage for 2 more as it is not a huge advantage imo.

^^ hey stop complaining i just got a prototype drop of one of these last night and its a corker(<< see what i did there) seriously though some of the best pistols my BH has used have been low lvl green ones, anyhting useful looks like a caulking gun, or a futuristic nail gun

depending on what i am doing this is my spec, minus a few points as my char is not 50 yet but this is what it will be. http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#201MZfcbMdoZcrcRsMkM.2 a few things can be changed here: For PVP: 2 points on dark mending - can stay if you want some help healing or can be moved to suppression for more movement control - can be moved to corrupted flesh for added survivability 1 point on lightning storm could be swapped with backlash for the same reason but that is personal choice

my build is this: http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#601Mc0cZGGMRkhMbtz.1 no sure where the last 2 points should sit but otherwise it seems pretty solid

as im am not a healer at least i dont have to worry about those changes but i will be using one of these 2 builds i think. full lightning with madness http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#201Zfcr0dorutzZcMcM.1 or a hybrid of both http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#201Zccr0dRruzZcMcRs0z.1

im rolling a new sorc who is probably going to be a lightning/madness hybrid and i am torn between the choice of artifice or synthweave. my bounty hunter is running cybertech and marauder is artifice but im unsure which will be more useful in the long run

My current build is this one, http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#3010MZMsMMoZfurbzuhMc.1 its all about attack for me. personall preference on the retractable blade over thermal detonater. i switch up everynow and then. thermal det is better for pvp, retractable is better for pve imo

cheers to the ideas, i started a bounty hunter a last night but only played for an hour or so so hes only lvl8. not bad so far, its a refreshing change from 2 all melee characters, when the asia pacific servers start ill transfer over my other chars and maybe even set up a sorc

I need some help on a new class. At the moment im playing maruader and sentinal. i want to start a new class to replace the jedi as hes boring me. basicly i want to be melee but be able to use a ranged attack or two. but a good mix, i was looking at sorcerer and assasin as lets face it, its pointless having distance attacks if they arent lightning or a choke or something, the goodness of jedis is annoying. I am open to non force based classes but they have to be a mix of melee and ranged, preferably more melee than ranged. what do people think, is this possible, what classes should i look at. Also my play style is mainly dps, i dont like tanking and if you are good enough at killing you dont need to heal. << just my opinion

WARNING MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR PERSONS UNDER LVL 20 Dont worry i did the same thing. playing as sith maruader i got my ship and clearly didnt listen to well and went straight to nar shadaa. at lvl 16 or so, on a lvl 20 -24 world. Needless to say it wasnt the easiest but i didnt realise it done anything wrong until i was up to the class mission and travelled to that area. when i logged back in to complete it i actually read the loading screen and noticed it mentioned balmorra so at lvl21 i went to balmorra. OOOOPPPSSS

how many people here played assasins creed brotherhood. they made a facebook game that linked up to your actual game and you could go into it and send your training assasins on missions that would give them experience and money in the actual game. this was a good way for someone to level up assasins without the disadvantage of not having them available when you are playing the story. why not have something similer for this, it didnt hurt AC brotherhood. and no its not disadvantaging people. at the moment i have a vpn set up that lets me get from mo home computer to my work computer and vice versa and use it every hour or so to send my crew on missions while im at work. this way when i want to play the game i can still have companions with me on my lower level characters

^^^^ This guy . im a ****** at the moment my sentinal is rocking red blades just to stand out
