    I reinstalled a few days ago.

    Game is now unplayable. Crashes to desktop or BSOD within 20 minutes.

    GPU fan is pegged at 100% (by me) No heating issues at all.

    Memory is fine, not sure what the fuck the issue is. I've played for hours and hours before with no issue.

    If not, I will definitely not continue playing in the long term (I still want to finish most of the class stories as single player content).
    I'll probably pick up the game if they fix those problems. My biggest issue is that, while I wasn't a fan of the art style, I really, REALLY loved the feel of WoW's movement, graphics be damned. If they can't "fix" the combat and the movement of the game, its a no-go for me, but if they can, I'll probably spend at least as much time with it as I did with Rift, and for what it was, I absolutely loved Rift.

It's frustrating as fuck, because you have to be stationary and any animations have to finish for the cast to complete. Watch this if it still doesn't make sense and note the difference:

    I see what ya mean, I've played Scoundrel healer for 40 Levels. I've had the same exact thing happen for me, and ya you have to be in a complete stop before using anything with a cast bar. On top of that you have to let the full cast actually finish. SWTOR doesn't take account to Latency, while WoW does. But either way it's something that both sides get effected by, so *shrug* not big deal and in FP or OPs you are going to be standing still most of the time.

    To me it feels the game needs to be played slower, IMO I like that but to each their own.

    I'd be more worried about animation differences between the mirrors. Ex. Consular Project and Inquisitors Lightning.

    The problem is it's not limited to abilities/spells with a cast bar. The funny thing is I don't really run into ability delay that much on my Sorcerer while I experience this shit on pretty much every pull on my Sentinel. Posted in the complaints thread:



    And here's something I randomly pulled from my FRAPS folder. I counted at least 10 failed abilities that didn't go off from this one quick boss fight alone, one of which includes the infamous Master Strike/Ravage animation bug (you use the ability and the animation goes off + eats your GCD, but it does nothing and the C/D isn't consumed).



    In any case, I'll be extremely happy if they get this fixed next week.

    I'm not sure if this is a glitch you guys are talking about but when I play my sin in pvp sometimes when I try to use shroud + cloak it wont go off, I will literally be spamming it for 10 secs and the ability won't go off. It's like the ability isn't ready yet but it is, I have died so many times because of this shit. So annoying. This has also happened with tanking abilities like deflection and dark ward. I hope this shit gets fixed.

    Happens to me all the time on my scoundrel. Pop dodge and spam on vanish, kite spamming vanish for like 15 seconds and then die because it never went off even though it is ready and I am 100% positive it is not on cooldown.

    I will admit this is a pain in my side as well. Popping dodge and shield at low health and 2 seconds later dying to some damage that "should" have been avoided.

    Right, it's not just cast bars. It's anything that has an animation longer than the GCD. You press a button, it goes off. The GCD passes, your action bar lights up, but you can't do anything because the animation for the ability is still going and you can't clip it. This was done to make a more "cinematic" look to the game. It makes for a game that looks good but doesn't feel good. I don't know if they are going to fix it completely or just do some workarounds.

    I typically pop vanish and then dodge (to remove the chance of a dot connecting milliseconds before vanish goes off), but I encounter the same issue; I can be spamming dodge for 10+ second until a dot inevitably ticks and breaks me out. It's absolutely infuriating.

    Very strange... I have only gotten Huttballs (versus Imperials) all day today. None against the republic (Hedarr Soongh)

    With a Jedi Knight/Sith Warrior I wouldn't PVP too low. You just don't have any of the impact abilities you'd want for it to be fun. I have a friend who plays a Sentinel and PVPs around 20, says its fun.

    So I was reading about the Legacy System and it said that the Legacy last name must be unique.

    Does that mean if someone else chose Smith as their Legacy name no other player can make that name, at least on that server?

    You can do PVP at 10, once you hit the fleet. I'd suggest that you'll be useful after that but honestly do the odd match anyway. Your HP/Force etc get scaled up but higher level players have the advantage of having more abilities. I have a 41 Sage now which I've done quite a lot on and I took my Scoundrel in from 10 (is 22 now). As long as you do something useful (cure spam, help people with kills, pass info about turrets) it doesn't really matter what level you are.

    My biggest tip though is to make sure you're aware of what the aim of the actual match is. So don't get drawn into endless duels and focus on what needs to get done. In Hutt ball the aim is to score goals (not just drop sages into acid >.>) and to stop the other team from scoring goals. For the turrets one, the aim is to do enough damage to the enemy ship to shoot it down before the other team shoots yours down. You do that by taking control of the turrets (guns). if you have 2/3 guns longer than the other team you're going to win. In the ship one, you're either a defender or an attacker and this changes over 2 rounds. You either are attacking and are therefore setting bombs on doors to blow them to get to the datacore OR you are trying to stop the other team blowing up doors to get to the datacore.

    If all you do is dance around and fight at the expense of the game aims then you're an idiot. Also, don't forget to pick up your daily PvP quest and turn it in after a win. It gives you a good chunk of extra xp and some freebie gear/meds. You literally pick up the quest, do some PvP, get a win, turn in the quest. For the republic this is on the fleet.

    With extremely cursory research I'm currently this
    12 Inquisitor/ Assassin
    Artifice / Treasure Hunt / Archaeology
    Will I get a double sided light saber just progressing through the story?

    I specifically didn't choose Sorcerer because I don't want to heal, but if I'm lfg will I be hanging with the old dragoons?
    I shouldn't have much trouble since I joined my brother's server for this character, but for when he's off.

    Assassins can tank or dps, so if you're having trouble finding group as dps you can always try tanking. As for double sided light saber you should have got a assassin kit when you picked the advanced class that contains it.
