Sorry double post

Like Doc said you can roll it since it has a travel time. I don’t recall the ability off the top of my head, seek cover maybe, gives you a speed boost when leaving entrench this helps you get enogh distance to entrench again.

All of this plus if roll is on cool down it was nice when swarmed by melee.

Was originally posted in general->suggestions. Was recommended to repost here so more people will see it. I don't know if this has been suggested yet, if it has I apologize. I was thinking we could have a server similar to the pts server set up only for ranked pvp. At the begining of each season you could copy your toon over. This way everyone is on the same server and we should be able to get more players in the que. Then que times will be shorter and there might be enough people qued so you could be grouped with and against people with similar ratings. This wouldn't be as good as cross server ques but would be something to help until cross server is possible. This was just a rough idea I need some of you smarter people to figure out all the details of what it would need to actually work. Thanks for reading.

I will post in pts also. Thanks.

I love this post. Very well said.

The tip about adjusting the UI was great. I now have a huge bar showing health and debuffs. Lot easier to see peoples health. Also started making a game like suggested keeping everyone above 90%, much easier keeping health up than the 80%. Then when the get a hard hit I don't stuggle as much. Also did no dps at all. Striclty healin. I feel I did much better tonight only one person died, and that was from standing in a bad colored circle at the wrong time. . On a side note I always hear the pvp community is toxic but I guess asking to watch the cut scenes brings out the worst in people. All kinds of insults then I got kicked out of group for the reason of wasting time. Oh well it worked out in the end because the next flashpoint had an incredible tank. Once I said I was new he said just follow him and heal. He said if anything attacks me run towards him so he could take aggro if his taunt was on cool down. Always good to be grouped with proficient people. The tank also recommended avoiding tacticals for a while since they tend to draw the worst kind of players. So I guess just like pvp there are jerks and good people.

Thank you bothh for the answers. I also started reading the thread about weird people in group finder. I can see a lot of things not to do and that will help also. I use focus target and target of taget a lot in pvp never once thought of using it in pve. Makes sense though. See a big attack and who its aimed at then I can bubble and start casting a heal. Will try that after work.

Thanks for the answers. I have found group ranked to be fun playing with guild members, but solo ranked is harder. In solo if i can survive the first 30 seconds of a round I am happy. With objective pvp engineering is so much fun. Especially when I group with the mm sniper in our guild. Explosive probe->ambush->plasma probe->take down is devastating to other players and happens so very quickly they have trouble. I am having issues on defensive cool downs. Mostly timing on when to use what. My husband suggested making a video of my matches then I can review them and see what I did wrong. Can anyone tell me how you record your matches? Is it 3rd party software?

Hello everyone. I have been playing a few years now and almost completely focused on pvp. I decided to try out pve and see if I enjoy it as much as pvp. I have a few lvl 60 toons but figured I didn't want to start flashpoints at endgame so I made me a sorcerer, healing discipline. I have done a few flash points so far and tell everyone I am very new to pve and always ask for advice. I have a few questions for the more experienced players though. 1: i have been given lots of differing advice on when to heal. Some peoples say as soon as a group member takes any damage start healing. While others are saying dps until group members are about 80% then heal. Any advice with this? 2: Is there a priority on who to heal? I mean if everyone is taking damage at once does tank get healed first then the dps? 3: In one flashpoint one of the dps would run into another room an start a fight before the first room is cleared and then get mad I didn't keep his health up. In situations like this should I stay with the main group and clear the enemies, run to the next room to heal the other guy, or run back and forth healing both? 4: Last one for now. Can anyone point me to a general pve healing guide? Not so much class specific with gear and rotations but more general beginer tips you have learned while playing. Thanks for any help.

Thank you.

Ok another questions hopefully someone has tried this. If I laze target then explosive probe and a marksman laze target ambush on top of my explosive probe does the damage stack? I tried in a few warzones but we could never pull it off. Someone else would hit my explosive probe before the ambush would strike.

Cs_zoltan and CaptQuazar thanks for the tips on rotation I will try them both and see what works the most best. Thats not good about alacrity and plasma probe. Thought I was genius smart to figure it out. Oh well. I think by season 5 I will be ready to do ranked. Thanks again.

Thank you your videos are very well done and easy to understand. I like how you explain the technical stuff then show videos of how it works. I did the roll to enemy then debiltate in a duel with a fellow guildmate after his health was down and he didn't know what to do. He said he had never seen that before.
