Pashan Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I'm level 19 and just got Quinn. Do I keep him or Vette? I'm carnage spec and I would miss the Vette DPS but heals would be a comfort... What have some of you more seasoned Marauders found works best? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bountyhunterzzzz Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 IMO until 40 quinoa heals are absolutely garbage and his dps is worst of all comps I'd use Bette until jaesa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howdie Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I used Vette from the moment i got her until hoth or so. And i did stop using her because it wasn't working, but because i wanted to use a different companion. Using Vette is completely manageable IMO. A lot of people are probably going to say use quinn, but to me having to channel hate for 3 seconds after a fight and taking down mobs twice as fast using Vette is more enjoyable than doing all the work yourself and getting heals from Quinn.

atreyuz Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) Quinn. I am the one who should do all the killing. Quinn knows his place. He stays behing and heal me, while I bring death and devastation. He is my "beach". Edited February 12, 2012 by atreyuz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tmbn Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Use Quinn. You will start loving the healing and you will really need it. Of course Vette is playable, but you will have a more easy time with Quinn. Also if you run Heroics together with 3 persons you can use Quinn as your fourth healer. Then he is ready to be used with the latest gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shonuff Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Just make sure you give them good gear, their stats increase their effectivness in their abilities. So Quinn and Vette should be constantly upgraded to survive longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xDreegan Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Visit the AH and get Quinn some implants, an earpiece, and use any commendations you don't use to gear him out. Doing this I tear through enemies in PvE. Also, get your shockfrozen water. It significantly lowers downtime in-between mobs. Jet remember to remove the buff it gives you by right clicking so you alway get the heal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilFD Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I leveled, raid, and PVP as annihilation. As far as lvling goes, I used Vette until I got Jaessa, then used her exclusively for the remainder. I never used Quinn as some people would make you believe is a necessity.

Kibaken Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Use who you want. Not using Quinn will make leveling a bit harder but you can do it with any spec/any companion. I was Carnage with Jaesa from when I got her till I concluded my class story and never had any problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilFD Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Did you level as Carnage or Rage? Neither, reread my post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emeraldon Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Leveling with Quinn is definitely faster. You might lose out on some dps, however there is next to no downtime, and if you happen to pull bigger packs of mobs, you won't die horribly. My marauder is currently level 26 and I've been using Quinn since I got him at 17. I like vette, too, because of her damage and humoristic comments during battles, but Quinn is just alot more powerful as a healer, in my opinion. Also have a level 50 sentinel that I leveled with Doc only since I got him. (Sentinels get Doc (quinn equivalent) at level 33-36 so there's a huge advantage to Marauders right there.

miliways Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Use whoever you want. I used Jaesa as long as I could. Level 30+ you pretty much have to use Quinn. Power to you if you don't, but its going to be much, much harder. Keep quinn geared well and you'll have a much easier time solo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lividcalm Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I didn't like Jaesa, too squishy. Vette is great, but you will be healing up between every fight. I used Quinn from 20-50. You will have less downtime with his healing, so leveling goes a bit quicker with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wainot-keel Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I use Quinn a lot. Make things easier, specially when I face mobs at my same level. I switch to other companions for some variety only. I'm pretty sure you can get to 50 without ever using him, but you'll have to perform "better" and kill everybody real fast, otherwise you'll hurt. And that's a problem for me. There's so much fighting for everything, that combat gets tiresome sometimes. Combat is fun, but not THAT fun. Cleaning up the same trash over and over, every step of the way, makes it boring for me. At least with Quinn things are more restful. I just try to keep his gear up to date. Another reason for using him is that I want Vette and Jaesa available for crafting and missions. They have the highest affection level. Quinn, not so much. Finally, with Quinn, I'm able to run the Heroics 2 only being 2, 3 levels above, maybe less if there are droids I can disable, like the Taris' one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
