Gunnery DPS commandos should NOT be using Plasma Cells or Combat Support Cells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agreutman Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Forgot last night, but I will post the link to said article when I get home tonight. Found it! http://www.darthhater.com/articles/feature/19807-guide-trooper-commando As an aside, if some one dislikes the suggested builds, please educate us about what and why you take issue and suggest alternatives.

The build you linked is fine. The builds that were linked earlier had some very odd talents that shouldn't be used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiro-Protagonist Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 It is difficult to have a "bad" build as long as you spend 31 points in a specific tree. The only choices really left to the player are to spend talent points on PvP specific cooldowns or on minor increases in damage. The 10 points spent outside of your main tree should be focused on increasing base damage/healing. Just use common sense. Overall, anyone with a basic level of MMO experience should be able to construct a viable build. BW has made it so that bad builds are really hard to make unless you try for hybrid builds.

Kunari Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Here is a Assault spec I've been considering for a PVP server that my friends want to play on. http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#8000cZ0cZbIrrdGGMs.1 On my PVE server I'm Gunnery and like it, but it's not as fun as my more mobile classes in Warzones. So I'm not sure I'd like gunnery on a PVP server since I see more PVP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siedler Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 This is my current build. All dmg, nothing else. http://db.darthhater.com/skill_calc/trooper/commando/?build_id=270#::e2fe18f13ef5ef13cf4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altiris Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 This is my current build. All dmg, nothing else. http://db.darthhater.com/skill_calc/trooper/commando/?build_id=270#::e2fe18f13ef5ef13cf4 Going to go ahead and disagree with your assertion that it is all damage, and nothing else. There aren't 31 damage talents in the Gunnery tree, let alone 35. This is my build. Took 1 point of First Responder over 1 point of Weapon Calibrations because First Responder is up > 40% of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kunari Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 (edited) ... This is my build. Took 1 point of First Responder over 1 point of Weapon Calibrations because First Responder is up > 40% of the time. Unless it's changed, Alacrity doesn't do much for Gunnery since it doesn't lower the 1.5sec GCD it only really helps FA. Quite a few talent points for such a limited boos IF Alacrity doesn't lower the GCD. Now if it turns out Alacrity really does make Gunnery casts faster... I'll be doing a remap for sure.

altiris Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 (edited) It doesn't reduce the GCD, but it does seem that you can start casting another Grav Round immediately after the last without a break in between. So for instant casts it does nothing, but as far as I can tell it boosts Grav Round and Full Auto. Also, there are no other DPS talents to take, so even if Alacrity only affected Full Auto it would still be better than the alternatives. Edit: Also, it's only two talents.

Wouldn't those 2 points be more useful somewhere else? Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altiris Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Why are you guys taking heavy Trooper? Wouldn't those 2 points be more useful somewhere else? Cheers. The only other places to put them are: Advanced Tech (worse) Tenacious Defense (useful for pvp, arguably worse in pve) Cover Fire (useful for pvp, arguably worse in pve) So, no, they aren't necessarily more useful somewhere else.
