TLDR: I'm not sure my gear is optimized for end game PVE. What should my stats be now that immolate is such a powerhouse? I have heard mixed advice on end game PVE Gearing for AP Powertechs for 2.4. At launch of the patch today I attempted to change my stats around to take advantage of the new update. All my gear (minus 3 pieces) is augmented with 32 aim 20 end augments At first I noticed my my damage seemed a tad lower than it was with my 100.00% accuracy 30% crit 75% surge build, with all stats re-purposed into power My stats of today are (72's) Damage Primary(1394-1645) Bonus Dmg (891.5) Aim 3101 Power 995 accuracy rating 438 (100.04%) crit rating to around 177-200 (22.60%) with no steriods surge rating 395 (71.08%) I was wondering what other PVE end game AP PTs were doing relic and stat wise. is it better to stack power or should crit be given priority in this build?

Luckily we win often with him, but that just means hes getting rewarded for valor afk farming.

I mean its cute for the first 20 days, but there still has been no CSR response to him, and the Republic 50's on my server are beginning to get annoyed. People are just leaving wz queues whenever they see Bigtentacles. He stealths and AFKs in the same spot every Alderaan Match, and does the same in other BGs. Im quite sure hes been reported several hundred times, yet he persists. Please address this AFKer. http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/121371247-4.jpg

This is actually a great post. Make new areas on all pvp planets where it can be guild vs guild instead

This is an awesome thread.

obviously

This. oh and this too. This is what SOE did to SWG Players, and we all know the history of that. Change it or we'll see history repeat itself.

All the people who ground out battlemaster in one day because of this nonsense are rewarded.

Unfortunately I'll have to agree. Maybe ill come back when they have someone else in charge of quality assurance. Or when they listen to beta testers.

Seconded.

No one really cares if turrets give valour, they care that theyre getting spawn camped by 60+ imps or a 3:1 ratio in imp favor and that people can get battlemaster in a couple of hours.

Do it. Nows the time to shut down, then you can figure out what to do about it.

This is a good idea.

I fear this will be a mass opinion.

You must have never played Age of Conan.

At lease they're acknowledging that somethings wrong.

Unfortunately, if we said nothing, nothing would get done.

I'm not going to respond to your troll, but to everyone else reading, people assume that we dont have 2 full ops groups going atm. Its not 10 vs 20 or thirty, its 48 vs about 150. All of them camping the republic spawn, making people rage quit. I like this game but if this isnt somehow fixed, I wouldn't be surprised to see a lot of the easy bothered people unsubbing tomorrow. And its the same for most servers.

Not a question of being good, its a question of every server being camped at the repbulic spawn by a 100+ zerg of imperials.

If you're playing an MMO for graphics you're doing something very wrong.

Stick this so the devs see it.

I'd have to agree that planetside and SWG had such a sense of scale that it made them amazing to play.

I agree with OP. These classes are completely broken. The fundamental problem with these classes are their ability to CC and stealth from combat, and in the healer's case, crit heal and cc until the reinforcements arrive.Warzones aside, I find that scoundrel and operative are mostly PVP focused classes, and even in world PVP, they manage to evade or outheal 1v1. In order to fix this, I propose we turn all the existing scoundrels and operatives into jellyfish, and then follow up by turning all the Vanguards and Powertechs into kangaroos. Furthermore I find it imperative that we take all force powers away from sorcs/sages, and instead of lightsabers, equip them all with large plantains and complementary movie tickets to see "Big Mama's House."

^ It never fails to speak truth.

We need to keep this thread in the front of PVP section, so the devs will see it.
