PT is a good choice for operations. Heavy armor, good dcs in dps spec, and a lot of useful ability which can be very helpful.
Hydraulic for bombing, aoe shield for group members with reflect utility was a lifesaver a few times.
I am an ex tank in guild now mainly dps so I have insight of how hard tanking certain bosses thats why I always take more responsibility than other dps. Sparky:taunting as many add as possible( ending with 30-40 stack) , Bulo: first and last barrel run. Malaphar (rarely need) collecting scattered adds after spear. Walkers: bombing, leading role on ts.
It's about helping each other not blaming/giving more responsibility.
1. There is a reason they dont communicate and that is the nerdrage happening here.

3. There is already a free to play (yeah its bad).
2 week ago ea annonced that they are stop support bfp4f and another game to concentrate on swtor. Also the response from devs are very good since 3.2 I like to think this may be a new era in the game.
