That does indeed sound like THE most weird player ever.

Yikes, there's also a 1-mil-prot tank, and 2.8-mil healer. A record-breaking game indeed!

That's true, but it's not really /thread. A question of all power 0 crit vs crit is still there.

^ This.

I wonder if 2-pc PvE set bonus or 2-pc EWH set bonus would be worth it? And btw they stack for +30% . I originally planned to just rip the armorings, but now devs say that PvE armorings in a PvP item is no-no for Bolster (and EWH is also PvE now). But still it may be worth to try replacing the whole item so it gets bolstered. Probably gotta wait for bolster fix in the next patch, and for math explanation the devs promised.

I do plan to drop all my crit. I heard that 0-crit and 300-crit parses show quite similar results (that's DPS parses, but it's kinda the same in the end). But I kinda prefer the power approach. It also gives more room for Alacrity instead of Surge (which was nerfed waay too much IMO). However, if I get couple crit items without any spare mods to remod them, I will use them without any regrets.

I'd rather take neither. Get full 3% crit and 2% alacrity. The rest of the points can be put for example into Holed Up or Kneecappin' or Trip Shot (if you plan to do PvP) If you only do PvE and want that 15% bonus for your Flyby, than I guess take Bravado. 10 energy is not a big deal (because you energy regen lower limit goes up to 66% then), but it's something.

I really hope they succeed with making the site work witg user-entered data. I'm sure many here will be able to help.

This pretty much sums up what the problem is: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=6167872#post6167872 Doing stupid things like removing mods, switching to green gear, etc. - gives you better stats. This should not happen.

Bump. This needs devs' attention.

This needs devs' attention!

Lol. Sap-capping such "nodeguards" for a year now. Yeah, all because Scoundrel is OP, why else? To not get sap-capped: In CW or Voidstar (8-sec cap): don't break sleep dart. Due to his GCD after sapping you, you'll have 1.5 seconds to prevent the cap. In Hypergate (6-sec cap): stay far away from the pylon, use LOS. But tbh it's very hard to solo-defend Hypergate as a non-stealther vs a good stealther. Leave a stealther or 2 people to defend.

Completely agree with OP.

signed. one more month of bugged bolster and there will be no PvPers left in this game.

This! We've been shouting about this for two months now, but they don't listen and stick with the buggy bolster which will never work.

And that's a gamebreaking issue even though you needed just a couple days of casual play to upgrade most important slots to WH and to stop being trolled. Yes, maybe they could've upped the stats on Recruit a bit. But not THIS... I surely hope so, but I get a feeling that it won't be so easy. There's no understanding yet of whether PvP hilts/barrels would be really better than PvE top-end ones, and in general difference between PvP gear and bolstered PvE is yet unknown. Agreed, it makes itemization such a pain...

Completely agree. They'll never understand it and keep whining until all gear is completely equal. At that point everyone will just unsub because there will be nothing left to do in the game. PvP gear was completely fine in 1.7! Yes, at the game launch in 1.0 you could end up being level 10 against level 50 in full PvP gear - that was unbalanced. But these times are long gone. In 1.7 I performed well in Recruit on all my alts, and just a couple days later with some addition of proper gear was already topping scoreboards. All the while baddies were whining that they lose cause they play against EWH-geared teams. The difference between WH and EWH was so negligible that people played in WH in rankeds without any problems at all, EWH was just a small bonus to keep PvPers hooked. Now even if they fix naked bug, the problem will not disappear. Now we don't have ANY understanding on how our gear relates to other competitors' gear. I have no idea what to do with my PvP gear now. Devs say I should buy Partisan/Conqueror, but I get a feeling even devs don't have a full understanding of how Bolster works and what gear is BiS now. It will take months for the community to figure it out. Utter chaos - that's what's going on with bolster at 55.

This is a must have. Current limit forces me to abandon "long-term, low priority" missions (like vehicle ones, FP/Ops ones, world boss ones, etc) all the time.

I wish the Hoth one would insta-warp too! I would love to see Makeb from inside a taxi couple first times, but not 100 times. Since there's no option to choose slow or fast method, I prefer fast.

Are you a Professional Gaming Legend™? Or at least just a decent troll? Nope. Cya.

It was proven at this forum that Shock Charge does indeed count for WS, however, max 2 effects count. So with all three DoTs on the target, WS will still only benefit from two. If you want you can search for original posts on this topic, it was not that long ago.

Corso, then Risha, then Guss. Guss pretty much doubles the questing speed because you don't need to stop and heal up. The best comp for dailies and Makeb now.

For Makeb MM is awesome. Most crits oneshot a normal mob, and strong mob dies in 3 shots. Even with the AoE possibilities this still seems to be the faster way

If you quit, you're supposed to stop posting crap on the forums. So, just quit already.

And how about Black Hole?
