Aienir Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 (Edit: why I quoted you was to point out that Gut is still one of your most important Abilities) it's similar for Mando heals they get the 8 Person heal at 26 and the 4 Person heal at 57 you'll need the 8 person heal no sooner then 50 the 4 person heal would be way better for anything below (even in warzones the higher range trumps being able to heal 8ppl that were foolish enough to stack up so they can be AOEed down more efficiently) however, if you compare only the DPS specs then yea I'd agree Shockstrike and tactical Surge should definitively be lv57. but since these Abilities only functionality is to dazzle us with their amazing animations you can bet they won't switch them around. Of course it 's an important part of your rotation, I would never say it isn't. Was just being friendly to let people know that it isn't necessary to have that bleed to fire a Rail Shot/High Impact Bolt at a target anymore.

mastervalkar Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 After watching the Stream firsthand, I renew my passion for the new Tactics/AP. It takes everything I love about the old Assault/Pyro, takes DoT management out of it, buffs the right AoE, and give me fantastic Burst and Sustained damage. What is not to like? Not a darn thing. Too bad my Guild need my VG to tank in 3.0, but at least my PT on the Imp side of the guild can be a AP all-star Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aienir Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I'm curious. On the new Balance/Madness specs (and supposedly Vigilance/Vengeance), the dots are transferable with using Force in Balance or Death Field (or smash/sweep). Do Powertechs/Vanguards get the same thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vember Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 (edited) I'm curious. On the new Balance/Madness specs (and supposedly Vigilance/Vengeance), the dots are transferable with using Force in Balance or Death Field (or smash/sweep). Do Powertechs/Vanguards get the same thing? No, and your dots are still cleansable as far as I know. The best part about that is the huge neon sign Plasmatize puts over the target's head when it's active. That DoT won't last long against any team with a competent healer, unless it's got some built in anti-cleanse that isn't mentioned in the tooltip.

Khantalas Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 DoTS can no longer be cleansed in 3.0 (but they can be purged by Force Shroud, Dodge and Evade). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So everywhere you see removes cleansable effects (not purgeable but cleansable) you have to understand everything but scripted events CC and players DoTs.

That makes more sense, considering the huge graphical effect of Plasmatize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saregon Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 (edited) TAC did I read something right in an earlier post in this thread? I believe it sounded like Pulse Cannon is going to be out of the Tactics rotation? ...and with Tactical Surge replacing Ion Pulse, does this FINALLY mean then end of wanna be sorc lightning shooting vanguards?! (for those that spec tactics anyway) If so, I'm ecstatic! Edited November 13, 2014 by Saregon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TACeMossie Posted November 18, 2014 Author Share Posted November 18, 2014 But the question is do we still get the giggle? And which spec if so? I'm pretty sure they will keep it, and if so you'd be speccing Tactics/Advanced Prototype for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
