  1. I use essentially nothing but +defense +shield with only one +absorb +accuracy mod and I'm tanking hardmode operations just fine, so... eh. Doesn't really seem to matter because there aren't enough +stats on our gear to make us hit caps.

     

    What is the name of the +defense +shield mod? I must be blind, but am not seeing it on torhead. :/

     

    As for the PVP versus PVE set, I gain 1k health and around 6% damage reduction using the pvp set. I lose 6% shield though.

     

    Seems like an almost even trade, though I lose out on around 1k health. I'm missing several mod slots right now.

     

    I'll do a better comparison when I'm not as tired. :D

  2. There isn't really a 'best'. Just stack endurance, defense, shield and absorb however you can. Hardmodes are not actually that hard-- however, I'm afraid you geared yourself up the long and hard way.

     

    One week of doing your PvP dailies and weeklies would have given you 5-6 pieces of Columi-equivalent tank gear (yes, the PvP gear is actually amazing for PvE, as it sacrifices very very very little stats for the expertise; at most, you're losing ~10 str/end per piece of gear, every other stat is identical, including armor and defense/etc).

     

    I've got 5 pieces of the PVP gear, but it seems like it stacks only defense, where I'd figure having no shield on there really gimps the mitigation that we thrive on.

     

    Is stacking just end+defense really okay? I'm trying to play with some stats here, which is why I'm curious what mods people might see as useful. :D

  3. I can't run hard modes without having complete gear...

     

    I understand my orange stuff will get replaced, though once you can pull the mods out of the columni gear, etc, I might just put it into my orange set. Kinda partial to it.

     

    Until then, which mod item is best?

  4. So I've finished my level 50 orange set of gear. I've gotten all the armoring slots filled with the daily commendation level 51 armoring mod. I've been working my way through crafting up the enhancements that I think work. I am still wondering what mod slot items people are using for a full defense spec guardian.

     

    Thanks!

  5. Yeah, there are spoilers here. If you don't want to read them, then go away.

     

    Spent 2 days questing on Corellia. I go through all of the quests, eventually "saving" the planet from the Empire. There is a 3 or so minute video where I'm told by Corellian leadership and Republic leadership that I deserve the highest rewards for my actions to help the Corellians gain their independence back.

     

    I get some credits, the choice of some mods and some legacy xp.

     

    What?

     

    They just got done telling me that I've gotten the highest award available on Corellia (Blood Stripes) and I get no title?

     

    Seems a bit off, I did save Tython and got a nifty title.

     

    Seems like there is something missing here, and it's annoying. If your video is eluding to gaining prestige and titles, one would think that would be a reward.

     

    Oh, and thank you in advance to the trolls. Keeping you fed is fun for me.

  6. The only boss I had trouble with (hit 50 yesterday, haven't tried to finish the class story yet, but I am on the last quest) was the fight at the end of Chapter 1. I mis-timed my interrupts enough where I died twice.

     

    Love the fact that using interrupts makes the PVE game easier. I use them all the time.

     

    Oh, and force pushing bosses around as much as they push me is fun. :D

  7. I sent a bug report to Bioware about it possibly being missing from the game, though intended to be a quest reward. Standard automated response saying that it'll be printed out and put on someone's desk somewhere. If anyone gets a lead on this thing it'd be much appreciated.

     

    That's a better response than what I got looking for the Ascendant's Alloy set for my Jedi Knight. :(

     

    I figure the two pieces I'm looking for (Ascendant's Alloy Battlecage - level 19, Ascendant's Alloy Leggings - level 31) are both random craftables at this point. :(

  8. Wondering if anyone has found more than the boots of this armor set.

     

    I think the chest + legs are pattern drops from missions, but I can't find any data on the DB sites that helps.

     

    No, there haven't been any vendors that are selling the legs or chest piece.

     

    TYIA.

  9. I've been leveling exclusively using the tank tree. Haven't had any issues. I had been using Kira, but have since gotten Doc and now fights are a lot easier. Find myself using most all of my CC methods on some fights just to keep as many off of Doc as I can.

     

    Upgrade his gear, and he heals almost as well as a player. (I said ALMOST!!!!)
