Good thread: Rep Class: Shadow (Tank) Species: Miraluka Gender: Female Primary Companion: Always run with Nadia Imp Class: Sorcerer (Heals) Species: Sith Gender:: Female Primary Companion: Xalek My issues are that I have so many alts now that I struggle to define a "Main" I started with a JK as a main but now I have so many that I don't know who is my "main". Does anybody else have this issue?

/signed I don't see point of the detraction posts (see above^^), if this is a UNLOCK that you can pay to use then surely the fact that it is optional makes the point above moot. I have read in this thread that some people enjoy the story, some people enjoy the process of creating and leveling an alt and some people (myself included) prefer to raid at the end game. So that begs the question, what do you want?

Good story from the weekend, not a wierd one but funny none the less. GF HM60 Legacy of Rakata, I am on my MM Sniper (~46k). I zone in and we have a PT Tank (~61k, yes 61 kHP!), a Sorc Healer (~44k) and Sorc DPS (Forget the HP). The whole FP was a breeze, Tank held agro, Heals kept us all up and the 2 DPS weren't too bad. We downed the bonus boss with just tank, heals and myself. Other DPS had a quick break, but the bonus boss was no issue. The best part was the last 2 bosses, Darok and Arkous, now I think everybody who has run that FP is aware of the Shiv mechanic Darok has, marking a member of the group with a blue circle. So the fight began and the 2 DPS are burning down Darok, Tank has aggro off Arkous and we are all healthy. Then I get blue circled and run away only to be pulled in and one-shotted. Same thing happened with the Sorc DPS a min or too later. I said sorry in group chat for dying however the fight continued. In my amazement I watched the Tank and Heals solo the two bosses, when the rez timer expires I get a battle rez and then the same thing happens to me again! Meanwhile the PT and Sorc continue to grind down the bosses, it was a fight of epic proportions! Then after 5mins or so the second DPS gets rezzed for the last 100k HP on Arkous. Needless to say, get a good Tank and Healer combo and who needs DPS?

Cheers guys, I saw dulfy's guide but i wanted to know the specific enhancements etc, the stickied MM guide is best for what I need! MM is the best sniper!

I was on my Sniper last night, geared in all 186 comms gear, on ToS 2nd Boss. One of the DPSs told me my DPS was too low and that I need to min max my gear. I was hoping to get some tips on how to start doing this for PvE, as I can only find PvP guides on min/maxing gear. Basics would be much appreciated. TY

Refering to above, you shouldn't have to rebuild your legacy, it will TX over with your Toons!. As for the OP, the RE is generally healthy. I think prime time evenings you have around 170+ players on each of the Fleets. I have sometimes seen higher.

You have to be the group lead. Get one of the raid members to enter and then pass them the lead, reset phases and there you go. BTW what server are you on?

I was leveling a new Trooper character on Ord Mantell last night and I became stuck on the mission"The Ambush." After talking to Fuse, you are then directed to speak to the Twi'Lek named Mirru. After speaking to Mirru, you get a Holocall, at this point I can't access the holocomn call. The character becomes stuck and unable to move and there's no call. Tried on two different computers with the same result.

Excellent guide OP, I have just finished levelling my Scoundrel to 60. I was disheartened by the changes that 3.0 brought as I loved Scoundrel pre 3.0, even more so than Sage/ Commando, however you have made me want to try out my healer. Thank you

What server? You have a few OPS on your bucket list than I haven't done yet, would love to help out.

What an excellent post, Shulk, I sincerely hope that it gets published on Dulfy sometime soon. The rotation you mentioned (above) I happened upon as it is similar to 2.10. My question is where do you fit in Series of Shots, considering it shares a CD with Penetrating Shots, does it have a greater dmg output?

This exact thing happened to me last night, I checked the forums and dev blog and there seemed to be no answer. The first three times Jos and Valk would alternate between the platform and the arena. Then spawn a wave of adds and then I would find myself out of combat. On the fourth attempt, Jas came back down after the wave of adds, when I downed him Valk (or the girl one) stayed up at the platform. I simply force-leaped up there and positioned my self near the lip, in case i got knocked off, and burnt her down. I thought it was just my game connection. Did you raise a ticket?

Hey Guys, I hope your experience of the Sentinel in 3.0 is going ok so far! I wanted to start a thread that will hopefully collect various knowledge and experiences of all of us seasoned Sent/Mara DPS players to find the best spec / rotation / utility choice to play with in 3.0. I logged on last night, after a 5 hour download and install, and was instantly confronted with the new Dicipline system. At first it seems simple to use, untill you have to apply utility points. I choose Watchman spec and these utilities, mainly because of the defensive capabilites: Skillful - Debilitation (Master Strike Immobilise), Def Forms (dmg increase by risposte) and stagger Masterful- Incisor , Jedi Promulgator Heroic - Expunging Camoflage Due to the lag I was unable to try any form of meaningful rotation and most of the time the mobs were dead before i could complete the master strike, however I did use the simple rotation of: Leap - Overload Saber - Zealous - Cauterise - Merciless sleash - Master Strike With the added bonus of extra damage on twin saber trhow and increase focus generation so Zen would pop sooner. So my question to the floor - What build did you go for? What Utilities do you think is best? and finally what rotation(s) would you use? p.s I would also welcome any constructive critisism of any of my choices!

Hmm... Thanks for that ^^ Can I ask what you're doing at present Saving or Spending your Comms?

Yes but what tier will the current levels of gear become? Basic/Classic = 162 or 180 Elite = 180 or 192 Ultimate = 192 or 198 That was what I am getting at, is it more viable to max out your comms now so you can buy a full set of 180 when 3.0 hits? Or just grind what you have to the moment to get 180 gear?

So true, I had never thought of it that way! But in the absense of any information on what tiers gear are going to be in 3.0, what can I do?

So last night I was running 2 brand new 55s a Scoundrel and Merc, both healers, on DF via GF. Gear wise they were both around 24k HP and the bolster took them to 27k. I looked around at both groups, who were experienced raiders by the looks of things, however it seems that everyone was new 55s as they hit need on almost every piece of gear. So you can imagine I had a 1 in 16 chance of winning any loot! I came away with a main hand and an offhand weapon for 1 toon! With there being more level 55s, the need for higher tier gear has increased and thus people will have to run more OPs/ FPs to get geared quickly. So my grind for decent gear has just got harder!

"From a lore perspective, there are 7 lightsaber forms, of which only 5 are in game. Shii-cho, Soresu, Ataru, Shien, and Juyo are included, but Makashi and Niman are not. One Guardian/Juggernaut and one Sentinel/Marauder specialization could pick them up." Don't forget the 8th Form - VAAPAD (sp?) created by Mace Windu, however seeing as it is 4000 years away I don't see it being broght into the games and I am not sure if it's even canon now!

I just feel sorry for Dulfy and all the hours that she and her guildmates put into those class guides! I am sure within a week of SOR being ready she'll have new guides!

Just pre-ordered! Do you guys think it's do-able to level 4 toons to 55?

Do you have a link to this build? My first healing toon is a Sorc healer, I have never had a problem with levelling her and completing OPS with her especially when coupled with another Sorc or Merc/Operative. I find 16 man easy, probably as the weaker healing abilities of the sorc is "carried" through. On 8m I generally focus on the MT and ask the other healers (unless they are Sorcs) to take the group. What I really struggle with however I Lvl 55 HM, especially the big droid on Czerka flashpoint! My Force gets zipped up straight away now matter how is managed it! Any tips/ tricks would be appreciated!
