Woo, new video! Masochist.

She was the first to mention it, she get's to claim it.

Off to roll a commando!

Finally home. So it's 1.6 regen/second with two points into one with the force/blood of sith. With a 15 second cd on FiB/DF with one target, assuming you get all 10 procs you're looking at .75 r/s (20 force every 15 seconds) and 2.25 r/s with 3 targets (good luck with maintaining that). Well, assuming I didn't screw up my math, which is always a possibility. So likely more consistent regen over a primary balance build. This is probably going to suck doing this as solo queue, but off to see how it plays...

Another solid video, thanks Shin. Not quite sure what I think of the 17/1/23. Guess I'll have to wait for the next vid.

Deception is a hit and run spec for pvp. None of the current wz's really have a spot for that type of role. Would need a bigger wz where help couldn't arrive immediately for it to be viable.

I'm pretty sure blowing someone up in 3 seconds is better than taunting them. =P

Because before the game went F2P everyone in the 10 - 49 bracket all played perfectly, right? If you solo queue you will get 7 other people of various skill levels and knowledge of the game, it's been that way since day 1. If it bothers you, grab 3 people and queue as a team, otherwise get over it.

I give it 5 minutes after release when the first post complaining about the insta-kill effect hits the forums.

I think the game that has done it the best thus far has been City of Heroes/villains. Although you certainly still have tank, dps, and support classes, there is plenty of overlap so that any team of 8 can be viable. You don't even really have a pure healer at all, although there are heals. Buffs and debuffs are equally important and can fully replace a lack of heals. Likewise, you don't need a tank to soak the alpha, a scrapper, brute, or even a mastermind can as well, or you can have a controller or dominator mezz the mobs and prevent the alpha from occurring at all.

Don't have an issue with it, 27/0/14 is a perfectly acceptable spec.

Would help if you linked your full build, so we could see what else you were doing.

31/0/10 using dps gear http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#200rfMozrskrsZZf0cM.1 Can drop a point from Shroud of Darkness to pick up Dark Ward if you intend to pve tank anything. 27/0/14 using dps gear http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#200rfMozrskrZZf0cRd.1

Tank spec in tank gear = high survivability / low damage Tank spec in dps gear = medium survivability / medium damage dps spec = low survivability / high damage Many of the complaints about Assassin/Shadow seems to come from people suffering from 31/31/31 syndrome.

It also shows a dps spec shadow, not a tank spec using dps gear, which is what the thread is about.
