12-16 seconds in pvp is forever. That's plenty of time for you to get wasted. It's in the game, so it's whatever. You guys seem to be ok with a stuns lock that can last up to 16 seconds. I'm not. PvP is supposed to be about skill. There is no skill in killing someone that cannot defend himself.

Yeah, I'm not used to the stuns like this. I've been pvping since before WoW came out and stuns weren't used like this. Stuns were mainly used to stop healing and increase damage intake, not to be completely frozen.

I mean just stuns. Interrupts are fine and serve a purpose. Stuns? Not really. Just sucks when your specials are on CD and you are chain stunned to death. That's not fun at all.

Just imagine a pvp world without stuns. More fun, better pvp experience!

I thought that is what was supposed to be... Meaning the trade off for more defense mitigation is less dps. My Sent should have just as much of a hard time killing a tank as they do me. Yet it isn't that way. What about the tanks in dps gear?

All my augments are crit, so the mastery stim is what I need. Gotcha. Are they consumables?

Yeah and even worse when a tank throws guard on them. Even with the damage my Sent does, I can't do ****.

Are they consumables or can you use them repeatedly? I used to have one that was reusable but then one of the updates changed it to consumable.

I have my Sent at 244 and I'm Command Rank 300. I've found it easier in pvp with the higher ranked gear. Didn't think gear was really that much more effective at the higher ranks.

I lol'd

It hurts... A lot.

As I'm gearing up to get serious with Ranked, and that I've been gone for a while, what stims do I need for ranked?

I play a Concentrate Sent and have been pvping for a long time. Just need a team to smash with.

Still no word on the Cartel Coins?

Or should I try another discipline?

Which Combat Prof are you?

I'm from the PVP server, Prophecy of the Five and I was wanting to transfer to a busier server. What's the difference between PVP and RP PVE server? Just not as much PVP zones? Thanks for your time.

I disagree... I'm pretty much maxed out on min/max, expertise, and I'm fine... Once these Arenas start, I'll be fine as well. Just have to learn to adapt.

I've been pvping for a long time, and I don't mind losing matches if it's done fairly, but this has to be fixed. Exfiltrate has no cooldown and cannot be stopped. Why hasn't this been nerfed yet. It's almost cheating and you can clearly see the effects of it in most of the Warzones, especially Huttball. All of the other 51 abilities have a cool down, but not Exfiltrate. There needs to be a CD, even if it's a few seconds. Not sure about the rest of you non-operatives, but it's starting to ruin my pvp experience. Exfiltrate - Instant Energy: 25 Roll forward 12 meters. When slowed, you only roll forward 6 meters. While rolling, your chance to dodge melee and ranged attacks is increased by 30%. Does not break stealth. Cannot be used while immobilized. So basically, I have to waste my cc's and all the op has to do is be patient and then he can roll again. Actually, instead of giving this special a CD, let's make the other 51 specials instant as well. /endsarcasm

Well, when you interrupt, they can't use that ability again for 4 secs. I think that would be the max amount of time allowed.

I'm sure this has been talked about a lot, so I'll add another thread. Something should be done about chain stunning. While I love the challenges that PVP brings, I just don't feel it's a fun experience being chained stunned. Sure, I have one cc breaker, but that's a cool down of a 90 secs and it only breaks one. It's also not fun that 2 stealthers can tag team you while you are guard, chain stunning, so they can capture the node or plant the bomb. I feel that this resolve bar that Bioware came up with along with chain stunning is holding back the true potential of what PVP can be in this game. My solution? Simple. Just like having an interrupt, every profession should have a certain amount of time to be immune to stuns, after being stunned, for a few seconds. Being stunned constantly until you either die, or it breaks, is not fun and is a huge negative impact on PVP. PVP is supposed to be fun and challenging, and this is neither. /rant

I haven't played my Sentinel in about 3 months. I came back to all the new changes and I just kept getting my *** handed to me in Wzs, going around 60k to 100k in damage. Before the changes, I had all WH pieces and now it's not as good. I was a focus Sent, but trying Combat and well, I just suck. So, can I get some serious tips, please? I have Focus talent from noxxic.com, and I am also using the rotatation that they suggest, to try to get as much dps as I can. All my gear is WH with lvl 50 Augments. Thanks!

Focus on Power and Surge. Crit at 25% is just fine, but you want the Surge and Power to be the focus.

Same here... I went searching to see if others are having the same issue. I can get them on my level 43 imp, just not on my 50s imps.

Exactly... I mean, what's the point of forums, right?
