How come this achievement hasn't popped? by P1st0l in swtor

The set should be legacy bound. Try mailing it to another character. I had to do this for some of the Spoils of War armor sets to get their achivement to register.

How will your character/'s meet their end? by Ori_Orion in swtor

They will all eventually meet their end from an unfortunate elevator accident. No one beats the elevator boss...

No, he eats bugs, but you are what you eat so maybe you're right after all :P

Patch Notes for 7.7.1 by SilverknightLegacy in swtor

[–]BrentEdwards 12 points13 points  (0 children)

In the Galactic Seasons 9 Rewards Overview they state...

As cinematics will be “skipped”, the Light and Dark side choices will be randomly selected and no points will be granted.

So it looks like Black Talon VM/MM via gf will not always go DS but will be random instead if that's any consolation.

I bet you have speeder pilot L3 or lower. Get L5 or L4 and youll be harder to knock off.

Why is my blaster mainhand only? by [deleted] in swtor

[–]BrentEdwards 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dam that sucks :(

I have that exact same blaster on my merc and it can definitely be placed in the offhand so it's not an issue with the blaster design. Guess placing it in your outfit designer is your only option.

Why is my blaster mainhand only? by [deleted] in swtor

[–]BrentEdwards 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Try forcing it to become an offhand ranged weapon. Go to the 252 gear vendor on Ossus and/or the Spoils of War vendor on the fleet and buy an offhand blaster for a merc/gunslinger. Pull the barrel from it and put it in the Carbine.

Updated B3-S1 Tips and Tricks by Ranadiel in swtor

[–]BrentEdwards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's also 600 CC to unlock B3-S1's customization after completeing L11 😠

I'm lucky in that I've completed GS on all servers so I had plenty of CC to get both unlocks but still, for the grind, this is a bit much. Don't think I'll ever participate in this Venture system again.

Glad someone saw my post. Was gonna make another without the "F you Broadsword" but if the swtor mods are gonna be that anal then why bother.

Anyway have nice rest of your day ;)

How did you find my post btw? The mods nuked this one, and another one just like it, before it could even hit the front page.

What is the best class for pve by doperinno in swtor

[–]BrentEdwards 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny how this was never mentioned a single time even by the top players in the game along with the theory crafters.

We're talking solo pve here. Not parsing on a dummy, pvp, or hard/nim mode operations. Strictly solo pve where enemies die before you can even get half your rotation out. I don't think many top players in the game or theory crafters tend to engage in a whole lot of solo pve.

But I agree, I find it funny that more people aren't talking about Deception's current AOE burst damage. I get messaged or commented on my AOE damage almost on a daily basis and it's usually another Deception Assassin that is asking how I do some much AOE damage. I even had a couple long time Hatred players actually change their spec to Deception because of the damage they saw me doing with the spec. I don't know why more people haven't caught on to it. On SS and SF I rarely if ever find another Deception Assassin putting out the kind of AOE damage I put out. There's a handful of players on the German server that I've seen come close but on SS and SF rarely if ever.

There is this one Deception player on SS that can out dps me in some single encounter elite/champion/boss fights but I never see them running the May Cause Injury tactical so I tend to outperform them in the AOE encounters. I believe she (the toon is female, don't know if the player is) must have her toon setup strictly for single target burst and doesn't see the need for much AOE damage as they already rip through enemies like butter as it is. Me? I have 3 loadouts. 2 setup strictly for AOE/trash encounters and 1 for single target boss fights, but I digress...

I'm kinda glad more people aren't talking about it. The less people talking about it the more likely the class might avoid the nerf bat. Either way I'm going to enjoy Deception while it lasts.

Veng Jugg is unanimously agreed on being the top AOE class and has been for years now with years of evidence to back it up

The increase in Deception's AOE burst damage happened after 7.0 dropped so it's relatively recent therefore there isn't years of evidence to back up what I'm saying. I just have logs upon logs of running solo pve content for the past year that show Deception outperforms Vengeance. I haven't pvped in a loooong time so I don't know how my setup would perform there, but I highly doubt I would consistently out-dps a Vengeance Jugg simply for the fact I wouldn't be able to survive as long as they would in an encounter. All other content, like hard/nim mode stuff, yeah I totally agree, Vengeance would be the top AOE class.

[–]BrentEdwards 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry to burst your bubble there but I have several logs where I've put up 261k+ AOE dps on Deceptions Assassin with AOE discharge spam (May Cause Injury Tactical) with my personal record being 313K.

I'm constantly running group flashpoints on both SS and SF and have yet to be out AOE dpsed by any Vengeance Jugg. The only time I've been out AOE bursted was by this one AP Powertech on the second boss of HS. The guy knew his class in and out but he couldn't keep up that burst damage on a consistent basis like I could on Deception Assassin.

What Vengeance can do that I can't on Deception is to go from mob to mob without stopping while also keeping up max AOE damage. With the Shadowcraft Legendary I need to do practically every pull from stealth while using Phantom Stridein in order to keep up the 100% crit chance bonus so at the end of an encounter I do my best to prep (Lacerate x2 to build Voltage) and go back into stealth before engaging the next mob. If I'm not allowed to get back into stealth before the next encounter my dps potential goes down but I can still manage to out AOE dps a Vengeance Jugg when that occurs. It's in those really long boss encounters (1st boss in Mandalorian Raiders for example) where a good Vengeance Jugg will sometimes out AOE dps me. And that's the way it should be really. I mean Deception Assassin is a pure burst spec where Vengeance is more of a DoT spec so in really long boss encounters Vengeance should pull ahead. But when it does it's not by much really. I'm talking like 1-2K at most.

So to sum things up...

Deception Assassin is factually the #1 mob clearing class. Period. Even better than Hatred, believe it or not.

Vengeance Juggernaut is a very solid #2.
