CaptainBarbosa Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I fudge things up and forget to use rupture toward the end of the elite fight, but wanted to demonstrate that you can solo without Quinn as Annihilation spec. I'm a fresh 50 too, so my gear is craptastic for the most part, but you can probably tell that from my damage and HP pool. The relic used for the elite fight was a level 28 one that gives 70 crit and surge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadinaxx Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I'm a bit more geared than you, but I got rid of all companions to sort of compensate, same mobs, but carnage spec. Didn't expect the Gold star to be around the corner, so that was a sort of impromptu fight, lol Your vid is good, looks like you have the same sort of priority skills as carnage, but less twitchy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainBarbosa Posted January 12, 2012 Author Share Posted January 12, 2012 Your gear looks sweet, I'm digging the mechanical shoulders and arm stuff! You have a hood too, WANT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadinaxx Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 lol, the mechanical shoulders are the chest piece, hood as well, I just have the helm hidden. The chest piece is the columi weaponmaster vestments, which you get from last boss in fallen emp hard mode or EV normal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellOfish Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 No one is saying it is impossible without quinn It's just that with him, you could pretty much remove your channel hatred from your bar and make pull after pull after pull. The overall flow of the game becomes much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flavadave Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Hey I just switched from Rage to Anni. I'm only level 35. I didn't have a chance to play after I set my talents, so I'm just asking real quick. Whats a good rotation for Annihilation while questing? I know the rotation for elites or flashpoint bosses, just wondering what you guys do verse a pack. Do I still use force smash or do I tab around and apply a bleed to them all. With rage I could take out a pack of 4 mobs with about 3 clicks. (charge, choke and smash) then scream and vic slash the strong if he was left standing. Also I run with Quinn and I read on here that its best to buy him a modable set early and just upgrade his modes before you leave each planet. Anyone know a good place to buy Mr. Quinn a sweet looking orange set? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainBarbosa Posted January 12, 2012 Author Share Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) No one is saying it is impossible without quinn...You might not be, but some people are! I've seen plenty of QQ threads about being 'tied' to using Quinn. @flavadave: For larger packs this is what I normally do if there is a strong. Target the strong and Cloak of Pain > Charge > Deadly Saber > Threatening Scream (group CC) > Battering Assault > Rupture > Annihilate > Ravage > Smash (short stun). If the strong is still up, use obfuscate to lower incoming dmg after the normal mobs wake up, then do what you have to to finish the strong. (Usually deadly throw by then.) Then just clean up the trash! You get a good idea of this method from the first pull in my vid. Edited January 12, 2012 by CaptainBarbosa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quinn is an agent, so focus on buying him the orange set gear from planet commendations venders, or, alternateivly, the medium armor you are done with, just buy him cunning and alacrity mods from teh planet commendation venders and hand him your old armor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellOfish Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I think what people and me wanted to say that you pretty much have to use him if you do not want to channel after every fight. I hate the channel heal, it disrupts my combat flow. I'd rather kill a bit slower and not have downtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that's pretty much any class, whether you're channelling for your enegry/force power or heat cooldown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
