chobra Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Right, I have just dinged 50 on my Juggy. I am immortal specced, 32/7/2 and am primarily focusing on PvP atm. This thread is just to see if anyone has answers for me. So far I have gathered that the stats i should be capping are strength, endurance (obv), accuracy and expertise. I was wondering wether or not absorption rating is of any use in PvP, as people who have capped their accuracy will easily make defense rating obsolete. I am posting this because there is not much online to go by, and any points any fellow juggys have come across that might be useful for me would be much appreciated. I want to become a force to be reckoned with in PvP and I would like to hear what you all have to say. I await replies eagerly... <3 ch0bra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about people qq'ing about pvp. So unless you want to say something about how being an Im Jug is overly nerfed or overpowered, nobody here will care. Rephrase your question in the form of a gripe or complaint please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chobra Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 lol ffs, better idea to repost in the Juggy section? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yfelsung Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) Okay, first off, throw defensive stats out the window in PvP, even as Immortal. Shielding, Defense, Absorbsion, all that stuff is junk in PvP because it only works on a very small number of attacks. What you want to do is spec Immortal but gear like you're a damage dealer while stacking as much Endurance as possible. This way, you'll still be able to guard, still be beefy as hell (especially when Invincible is off cooldown) and your crushing blows can still crit for over 3k (on a fully sundered squishy). Don't even equip a shield, bring a focus, and don't spec into any of the shielding stuff, only get the bare minimum defensive talents to push to Crushing Blow.

chobra Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 Thanks guys! Thats a lot of help. By the sounds of things my survivability in pvp is then going to be based entirely on my endurance, armor and abilities. Cheers again this has been helpful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobrawastaken Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Oh, BTW armor is almost as worthless in pvp as defensive stats. So really you are a 1 hand yielding marauder running around with a lot of utility skills. What will set you apart is "skill". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yfelsung Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Someone wana point me in the right direction for a good PvP focus for my juggy? Just get as much +Force Power as possible. Your bread and butter "burst" will be, after fully stacking sunder, you Force Choke and then Ravage at the same time. All the extra +Force Power will make Force Choke tick hard, then your ravage will still hit like a truck. You're going to be about control, but you have to keep an eye on their resolve bar. Here's the problem, Backhand fills almost an entire resolve bar by itself. One more Force Choke or Push and they're full, and therefore immune. What you want to do is Force Choke, then Force Push, and THEN Backhand. Never Backhand first, it's just too much resolve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
