hey all Im new to the server and im looking for a raid group that does hm and nim ops starting around 8pm EST, i have a fully geared sniper and can play all specs. I know starts/tactics for all fights and have cleared them all too many times to count.

neither i just logged in and took some screen shots to show you what missions i have done http://imgur.com/a/qUO7F must be either a bug why u cant que or u havnt got the correct gear rating on that toon idk

you dont need to do solo mode 1st, i patched yesterday logged in then joined gf que for the MM fp without any problem at all, i havnt even done iokath on that toon. The only requirement is you have to have a min gear rating of 242

i have that deco i have sent you a PM

the only guild ive seen advertise a Late Night raiding guild is <THUNDER> i dont know if they are recruiting atm but maybe check them out hope this helps

Crafted or from the CXP boxes

sssshh snipers arnt OP they are glass cannons *points at the merc* look at that class BW

other than the 4% crit rate, the main difference between the parses are the miss rate %. With slinger u use both guns and the OH has 30% less acc then a MH. With sniper u dont use ur OH so u get 0% miss. If u look at speedshots/Series of Shots you can see with sniper u didnt miss any but with slinger u missed 13.13% also looking the 2 rotations are slightly different

Viru- Cull on the move MM- Ambush on the move Engi- SoS on the move

thanks for the replays i checked the patch notes and yep they changed it

So i made a fresh L60 to join some friends in midbie pvp, did a few matches had some fun and then decided to delete the toon cos i didnt really need it. When i go to delete the toon it says "This toon was made using a boost to 60 token, If you delete them now your token WILL NOT be refunded" I havnt hit L61, did they change the way it works cos ive done this before without any issue getting the token back

lol all accuracy healer, gotta make sure them heals dont miss

Good idea, so save them any real work at all they could just put the kell dragon and dread master venders back into the game and just change the cost to the relics you have suggested, making them BoL would be awesome being able to have the kell dragon sniper jacket on my Gunslinger would be a dream come true.

its a tool tip error since 3.0 if u chance zobe u will see the bonus is their

my treek has 66k HP

with the gear they are changing the cost of armorings/ mods etc to just 2 coms each, that means a full set with 9 slots will cost 29 coms. Also they are going to give more basic coms from the story mission something from 2 as it is atm to between 6-8 depending on the mission. So gearing in 12x XP wont be an issue at all

they all play differently so play the one u like the most. nefrs and buffs will always come, and all rdps can hold their own at endgame

Shattered Armor is [Training Dummy Armor Reduction Module] that u apply along with the HP on the dummy

nice work on improving your DPS one thing i noticed was your APM was a little low for sharpshooter is should be a minimum of 40, i also noticed that u can tweak your opener a little to get a higher burst. Normally a parse is done over 1Mill HP but for comparison i have done some over 500k (was like 2am so i made a few mistakes on some of them) http://swtor-parser.elasticbeanstalk.com/parser/view/13770/5 check the rotation tab to see the difference in the opener, if needed i can type it in this thread its just a little late to do it right now Hope this helps

ok i will try and answer the best i can. Gear wise it looks about right the only difference from my set up is i use slightly less crit 333 rating and slightly more surge 343 rating i also have 120 alacrity. Currently i can parse on average 4.6-7k ( im 198 gear) 1) Should I move some alacrity into this gear? If so, which piece should I move and or replace? I have some power/alacrity enhancements on hand. Yes is recommended that you use 1 piece of Alacrity i personally have it in my earpiece (Revanite Professional's Device Power/Alac) 2) I've heard that you can squeak by with around 99.8% accuracy and not have too much repercussions. Should I follow this method? I would always recommend having 100/110 Accuracy the reason for this is because as gunslingers we use an offhand and that its self has 30% less accuracy then the main hand. I know some snipers use just less then the 100/110% because they don't have to worry about off hand misses even so ive been in far to many progression fights and wiped on 0-1% then checked the logs and seen if my hits hadn't missed as much we would of killed it . I personally have 100.5/110.5% 3) I've seen that there are some posts to where there are diminishing returns for stacking too much Cunning. If so, what should be the more optimal # and what should I stack more of out of the stats that I displayed? The Diminishing Returns you have read about from main stat are talking about the amount of crit u get from the main stat, personally i dont see any reason why you would ever use aim instead of cunning if you would be short of crit simply use a crit mod or enhancement or implant/earpiece or even a crit augment theirs so many other choices then using Aim to pick from. 4) Reading from a post earlier, I've read that slingers can benefit from using Aim Augments. While I know Aim does benefit Trooper and Smuggler classes, should I put some Aim into my gear in terms of augments or mods in general? Answered above in question 3 With Questions 5 and 6 Gear wise as i said about you are on the right track add some alacrity. with the rit rating thats more down to personal choice and finding what plays best for you some go higher to 400/20 and find that works for them personally when i tried this it didnt and find best results at 333 rating. As for your rotation without seeing it i cant really comment if at all possible if you could upload a parse to http://swtor-parser.elasticbeanstalk.com/ then either myself or another slinger could look through your rotation and help you further. Hope this helps

Just want to say some of the higher parses (not all tho u have to check the logs on what ones are) that are being put onto the parsely leaderboards are using the bug with the double proc relic. Just thought i would mention that in case people are trying to chase the numbers.

Its cos ur offhand misses theirs nothing u can do about it ( the moves ur missing on are all when both weapons are fired something like vital shots doesnt miss), if u hover over ur acc rating in char sheet u will see what ur off hand is. My acc is Ranged 100% main hand and 67% offhand and Tech acc 110% main and 77% off. The only way to counter this would be to increase ur acc so that u would have 130% but doing that would mean loosing a lot of other stats and would decrease ur dps (u wouldnt miss tho)

Thanks all the work u did in making the guide, after gearing my gunslinger i did a parse and got this by using your guide 4325 Gear

same we got to olok NiM last week and the Assault droids wiped us within seconds, we have been breezing passed him for the last 12 months without any problems at all. Though we would doa quick Dragonslayer run the bosses before were fine no issues at all. Hope they fix this soon a nice way to get some coms and SnV is still a fun ops to do

what i have done when playing DF (i do main SS in most fights) is use my old 4 piece 186 set bonus armoring along with the new 2 piece set bonus with that energy isnt an issue at all and i can use dirty blast more to get the new power proc from the new bonus.
