My question is WHAT NOW?

Tactical flashpoints dont drop any good gear for me.

Tried Hard mode flashpoits and they also have crap loot and for my taste as healer they are way too hard for me with 208 gear.Tried only 2x hard mode.Athiss was ok and i finish it but false emperor was just insane and i cant heal that 2nd boss with insane group damage.So no points in hard mode flashpoits..

 

I never played any OPS.Are Ops more easy than Hard mode flashpoints?Should i try story mode Ops?

I believe that you need to work your way up, getting the blue data crystals and the pink/purple data crystals and get your gear that way.

 

Practice, Practice, Practice......healing group is not as easy as healing a companion....so it will be quite different and more challenging.

The best way to gear up is to find a good guild to raid with that knows what they're doing and is willing to help you out. Story mode ops are probably better for gearing up than hm flashpoints; the bolster is stronger and they drop better gear. If you're pugging raids than just be prepared for a lot of idiots that don't have any idea how the fights work, or anything about raid etiquette for that matter. You might also want to read up on the fight mechanics for all the boss fights in the daily raid before you queue up.

This. The bolster is so strong in SM ops. A few things I recommend to give you the strongest boost possible: Augment a set of legacy gear, this way you benefit from the extra stats now and it is a safe investment of augmentation kits. Unless they changed it, bolster does not consider extra stats from augments so these are a cherry on top of bolster. Don't worry about augmenting relic/implant/earpiece until you get the 216 token gear from ops. If you are using com gear or A mods/higher endurance enhancements, you are better off getting lower level unlettered mods and quick savant/adept/initiative enhancements because they will provide much better stats when bolstered than high endurance stuff. Unless bolster was changed since I last looked into it, this should put you at best advantage to start getting gear :)
