jedipooface Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 I'm a level 50 Sentinel with the watchman tree. It seems like anytime I see another sentinel they have way more hitpoints than me. I've even seen a couple level 48 or 49 sentinels with more hitpoints than my level 50 sentinel. Today I saw a level 50 sentinel with 14800 hitpoints, while I only have 11600. I'm hoping someone can tell me if I have below average hitpoints. Is gear the only way to gain hitpoints? Does my watchman tree have anything to do with hitpoints? All of my gear is set up with higher strength than endurance. I've been gearing up with the assumption that I should always take strength over endurance, so I always use might armor and might hilts. The result is that I have 911 endurance and 1000 strength, is that a bad ratio? The only way I know to raise hitpoints is by raising endurance, if there is another way let me know. I'm on corellia right now and I'm not having a lot of problems yet, but I'm worried that I will start having problems soon because of the low hitpoints. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWhiskey Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 PvE gear has substantially more HP than PvP gear, but you should be aiming for ~15-16k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind that you can get a bunch of extra health from party/raid buffs, so someone that was in a party within the last hour or so might have a bunch of "temporary" health. That said, my lvl 50 Watchman has around 17,800 health with no party buffs. That's in (almost) full Columi gear with Rakata implants and Rakata relics.

Garrum Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 If you do your Belsavis dailies for the purple mods and armors, and use your tokens to buy 2 of the big hilts you can get up to right at 13.5k. I suspect that if you open the Ilum dailies and get the quest that gives the purple enhancements you could probably get 14k or a little over. Saving your tokens (after buying the hilts) for the earpieces and implants is probably the best way to spend them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venator-Falco Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Yep you are definitely running a little low, 15K plus should be your target, and as has been stated do dallies for the armour mod and Enhancement upgrades and you will start getting close. Then raiding will push you over. Happy Hunting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdela Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 That is definitely low. I am running a bit over 14800 and I am not even close to getting my best mods in my current gear and do not have any gear from HMs or PvP yet. I expect once I get all purple mods and enhancements for level 49 I should have around 16,000 HP. I still have a lower level implant and a level 45 belt, so there is even more room to grow. Are you using moddable gear? If so what are your mods like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryat Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 That is where I am at but my gearing is low. Its hard to get good Might gear. Guardian gear is in abundance though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FobManX Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 A fresh 50 will probably have around 11k ish. As you gear up you'll naturally get more as higher levels of gear has more Endurance. Right now unbuffed I have about 16k. All my gear is epics though, 4 piece Columi, two Champion Lightsabers, and even my orange pants have 56 level mods.

Vibeth Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Over 15k myself. Some champion gear, both champion lightsabers, Columi chest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tk-fourtwentyone Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 16.5k - full pvp gear half bm/half champ. Straight up raid gear has more hps though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnnaRei Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 ^ Like him, I'm also pvp'd out at 16.1k. I've seen sents in full BM close to 17k. 18k is achievable with Rakata pve gear I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobrot Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 wouldn't worry about how much hp you have as it all depends on items, it will increase as you get better items so there is no real should and should not have value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xerain Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 i have like 16.5k hp in 3/5 champ armor, cent legs with level 58 mods in then, rakata gloves, and bm sabers, implants, ears. Mod your items around and balance your stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarterJK Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 (edited) I know this post is a little old, but this is for those that may want more information.... First, lets make sure we understand what we are saying when we refer to HP (hit points) HP is not how hard you hit, BUT how much damage you can endure before you die. But, other factors play into that, amount of armor, blah, blah, blah. that said; To be more precise about the Endurance factor ... each endurance point will increase your HP by 10 so, example +86 Endurance will increase your HP by 860 As for the Jedi Sentinel, strength will increase your damage you do but you still need that endurance for stamina so you don't die, it is just a balancing act. I think also as one gets better at learning how to use their sabers and powers, endurance factor goes down a little. I know for me, once I learned what focus was and how to use it, my game play changed dramatically, so HP became less threatening. Of course, higher rated armor always help Edited May 18, 2012 by KarterJK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sobius Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I was in the same position as the OP; I was at around 12k when I first dinged 50, with gear over time I can just hit 19k It's was a bit odd a concept to me in an MMORPG to increase your max HP by over 1/3 with gear but that's the way TOR is. Don't worry, you'll get there eventually! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myking Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 PVP or PVE, just buy Recruit gear... Shell out that 280k credits... Recruit gear for fresh 50s with net you a good amount of stats and HP. Yes, it is for PVP... but it is the fastest 50 gear to be acquired as you only need credits. You will arrive at around 14k HP if you are on full recruit gear.

Crawelc Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 19.3k with full war hero, fully buffed. I took the implants with higher end and accuracy which i intend to swap out so that will come down a bit eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hizoka Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I have 18.2 k and i have changed every mod/armoring/enhancement that has more endurance then every other stat but one. If you play well enough you end up with enough HP from your VERY HIGH END PvE gear to do well against people in PvP gear as you do far more damage then them even with their damage reduction and you have enough HP to counter their extra damage. however only the good players can be competitive like that so it eliminates all but a handful of people.

Leagueofone Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 (edited) 20.4k fully buffed on my Sent. Blackhole Earpiece, Black Hole Implants, Campaign Bracer, Proc Campaign Relic, Burst Campaign relic, Black Hole Boots, Campaign Leggings (Aug), Black Hole Waste, Rakata Gloves, Rakata Chest (Aug), Rakata Helm (Aug.). Also +10 Datacron and T7 affection bonus. Every little bit helps Edited May 21, 2012 by Leagueofone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fracta Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 In my pvp gear (Full war hero) I have 18k hp with the rakata fortitude stim. In my pve gear I have 20k hp without the stim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArtanisShan Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 In Rakata/Black Hole with Trooper buff, I have like 19800. In BM with Rakata belt and BH bracers I have about 17k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealios Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 (edited) With my rakata/campaign/augmented war hero gear combo i get around 20K hp with trooper buff for PvE in PvP i have full augmented warhero which gives around 19K with trooper buff. And yes gear & implants etc. is the only way to increase that. sentinel tree has nothing to do with it. As mentioned somewhere before a fresh sentinel won't have really high amount of HP, but when you get some gear (ie Columi/Rakata) you should easily get 16K + Edited May 24, 2012 by Stealios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coille Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 I'm on 17,400hp but trying to ramp this up a bit. Need an implant and earpiece plus three more pieces of gear yet. Still lots of room for improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
