Snugglepie Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Ok, so I have a Merc at level 50 getting close to Valor 60. I happen to see WAY to many mercs and notice that Powertechs are just as good. I have come across many guides and I am getting confused. http://www.torhead.com/ability/2Edyr47/empowered-tech I see this being used in some of the tanking PvP specs (Hoping to get a Tanking PvE/PvP spec all in one). So I was just wondering if someone can explain how the shielding works in PvP because through all the guides I am getting confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinnick Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Powertech PVP is very viable. As a Powertech tank my role is more support and of course of a tank. I help guard healers and dps while putting out some dmg and debuffs. To help you understand how shielding works in PVP I'd suggest checking out Taugrims writeup... check it here: http://taugrim.com/2012/01/19/understanding-swtors-avoidance-and-mitigation-mechanics-for-tanks-in-pvp/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
