Get your defence to as close to 30% as possible. Defence is your main stat..... avoiding the damage is far better then mitigating it with shield. Defence > Shield = Absorb > accuracy > power > crit > surge

We tried earlier, checked before raid started (17:30 bst) and it wasnt usable... Thought "oh ok 2 hour respawn... it'll be ready about raid time" guildie checks 20 mins later, still not usable. I log on about 18:00 and sit there waiting for it to be usable, still nothing. I have just checked again and its still not usable well over 2 hours later. Unless someone killed Nightmare Pilgrim in about 20 mins whilst it wasn't being watched.... its bugged.

Legendary T21 + Master Rifleman + Sweep Shot (or was it called Cone shot) = Spammed screen with "you have defeated" messages Or my pre-pub 9 Jedi with MLS/MDEF/4004 Enh was very nearly invincible. SWG was the best PVP game I have ever played, simple as that.

normal content leveling at a tank you'll be fine... when you get Doc you'll feel invincible As for ops, I have been tanking nightmare runs easily, done a bit of explosive conflict too... I dont find it too difficult. It might be easier as a shadow tank but i dunno since i dont have one.

Im using full BM Vindicator set atm, dps is very good and great survivability. Guarding someone is probably gonna be suicide unless its a healer but you can taunt to your hearts content and obviously use guardian leaps for healing yourself and dmg reduction on target.

Fair play you put the build up earlier, I didnt see it myself but well done

51% from normal armour, 15% from FD, 40% from warding call. 106% for 10 seconds

I was experimenting earlier whilst pvping looking for a def/vig hybrid and I made this build. Whilst playing around in pvp I noticed I could be practically invulnerable from damage for approx 10seconds by popping Focus Defence with Warding call, pushing my damage reduction all the way up to 106% for the duration of both. Still getting near the top of scoreboard for damage, very high survivability and good at soloing pretty much all classes (good for defending turrets) To get the 100%+ damage reduction you need to be using soresu form, have good armour and the spec linked above. You will have a constant 51% damage reduction from the 47% of armour + commanding awe 4%. When you pop focus defense 15% and warding call 40% you should be hitting 106% damage reduction for kinetic and energy armour. Internal and elemental damage will still be hitting you, still for less but not totally gone. /discuss

Its a big patch with alot of new content, it got slightly broken and they are fixing it.... If you dont like it then go play a different genre of games because this happens in MMOs

Alot of your issues are supposed to be resolved in 1.2...

Server Name: Nightmare Lands Faction: Republic Character Name: Zemark Craftable Schematic: +33 Endurance, +33 Power, +33 Critical) Price/Tip: 100k with your mats - 350k with mine

This still happened on a PVE server....

This was one of my the best if not the best I have had, 200k damage 194k Protection. http://imageshack.us/f/707/screenshot2012011510594.jpg/

As a Jedi Guardian it is basially impossible to get an number of kills when your base is being camped. The most I can do is Leap into their group, pop all my survivability buffs, use AOE attack and AOE stun then guardian leap out to the base again ASAP and hope some of the targets die. Also earlier my group got out the base and killed 4 imperials in a 4vs4 and we all only got 1 credit... roll back on the valor tbh or pvp is ruined.
