New Server! New Fun!

June 19, 2012 1 comment

I am actually excited to see this! On a Monday night, too!

The recent server transfers have lifted me from my previous home on the West Coast PvE server Lord Praven to the server Drooga’s Pleasure Barge. Aside from the fact that my previous server was named after one of the coolest Sith in the Jedi Knight’s storyline and my new server is named after the Hutt Drooga’s hedonistic mobile party platform, I have really enjoyed my stay so far on my new server!

Gunslinger Rotation Thoughts

LAST UPDATED: 6/18/12 for Patch 1.2.7

Up front – I will be honest – I am not a huge fan of set-in-stone rotations, as I primarily PvP, and that does not usually allow for rotations with no room for change.

PvP Talent Build: Shield Tech/Advanced Prototype Hybrid Powertech – 25/14/2

June 9, 2012 3 comments

LAST UDPATE: Update 1.2.6

This is a PvP build for the Powertech. It is a hybrid between the Shield Tech and Advanced Prototype specialization trees.

Note: This build was created with the Darth Hater Talent Calculator. The link to view this build is here. The associated Vanguard build is here.

Class: Powertech
Primary Focus: Shield Tech
Secondary Focus: Advanced Prototype
Purpose: PvP
Goal: This build is about movement, interrupts, damage mitigation, and our favorite: Rocket Punch. This build incorporates Jet Charge, while taking both damage mitigation talents for a total of 9% damage mitigation while Ion Gas Cylinder is active. This build uses some shield-activated talents, but does not stack shield-chance itself, due to only being able to shield half of the damage types. Rocket Punch is buffed with a proc-based cooldown-reset, a boost to crit chance and damage, and a boost to direct damage.

Easily one of the coolest armor looks in the game

All points allocated are the maximum allowed for each ability, unless otherwise noted.

It’s Been 6 Months Already?

Time flies…get it? 😀

Inspired by an article over at Inquisitor’s Roadhouse, I have suddenly realized that it has been almost 6 months since SWTOR launched.

So with that in mind, I have two things I want to share with you! The first is a Top 5 Things I Have Loved, where I gush about my favorite game and the things you should check out. The second is a Top 5 Things That Need To Change Immediately, where I bar no holds and tackle the issues that plague us all, or at least me. Read more…
