35 bags, 4 BM commendations. I had one in the first on then 26 in a row without any.

I finally got a second token today after 26 BM-less bags in a row. I now have the equivalent of 6 BM tokens from a total of 51 bags.

As a valor 67 pre-1.1 battlemaster I've opened 42 BM bags and have 2 pieces of BM gear (belt and gloves) to show for it, and they were from before the patch. Post patch I've gotten 18 bags in a row now without BM commendations. Incidentally I also have 2 pieces of rakkata gear, including the mh, from one hard mode operation run that took less than 2 hours on the first try. This compounds with my unfortunate choice of a bottom tier pvp class, the sniper/gunslinger. It's gotten more frustrating by the day and I'm at the point where I've stopped playing.

I've found pyrotech to be an incredible leveling spec. The damage and survivability with Mako has been incredible. Its taken me 2 days, 4 hours, and 38 minutes to get to level 40. That was with enough pvp to get the full set of level 40 gear too, which slowed down the leveling. 100% soloing, no FPs or heroics post Nar Shaddaa. http://i.imgur.com/1ArhY.jpg

I agree with what your saying but a hybrid sorc is better than you're letting on for damage and healing ability. But they are the exception and not the rule.

He probably means he can't leap up to the sniper to collect his free kill. Immunity to leap and grapple is an underrated perk of cover, second to not being interruptable.

I've opened 39 BM bags so far and only have a belt and gloves to show for it.

All 30m abilities being 35m would be nice and simple.

Gunslinger root isn't cleansable while snipers is. Add that to your list.
