RCcarroll Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I'm just wondering...did I choose the right spec? I use Focus because it's geared toward the Shii-Cho form, which is what I usually use. I want to inflict a decent amount of damage but still want the slight defensive boost it gives However, I rarely do any PvP, and I've heard this is a PvP spec. Can I still do well in PvE if I use Focus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Invictusthetaru Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I've found vigilance to do higher DPS than focus in PVE. You notice this mostly on bosses, where your time spent setting up your giant sweeps just can't add up to the crits / dps of plasma brand, overhead slash, and autocrit bladestorm / dispatch.

dizzyMongoose Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 It's not a PvP thing so much as whether you want to do straight-up damage (Vigliance) or damage over time (Focus). The main problem with Focus in PvE is more that it apparently (I don't use it myself) relies heavily on Force Exhaustion, which is the 31-point skill, and the big Force Sweep buffs aren't until Tier 4. So, the Focus tree is pretty top-heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
