what are your guys' PC specs?
I'm looking to improve my 10 minute fleet loading screen -.-


AMD Phenom 9850 black (4x 2.5ghz)
G.SKILL 4GB DDR2 SDRAM 1066 (PC2 8500)
GeForce 9800gtx+ (512 DDR3)
hd im usin is some random 250gb sata
on win7 home premium

I can really only afford to upgrade one thing at a time, but i have $100 in newegg giftcards from the holidays

first up I'm thinking a SSD and a 1gb vid card. SSD shopping should be easy enough but the last vid card purchase i made was a 6800gt :o

anyone suggest some cards in the $150 price range?
or should i really be looking into upgrading cpu first?

I haven't played any other characters. and i've only played with groups with me as the tank. and i usually do alright.

The use of Dark ward is pretty handy.



There is a guy in the Bal Mora market somewhere.

Attack X3>electro>maul

lvl 28 atm, speced for tank so kind of hard to maul. in fp's im pretty decent as a tank but solo i seem to get the shit beat out of me all the time

is it worth it to go dps for solo play and just pay to respec for fps?

Respec dps if you wish to do more dmg obv but you shouldn't have problems leveling as a tank.
You should probably read ur talents beacause you're obv doing something wrong

Why doesnt PVP weapons vendor sell off hand weapons?


The most common practice is too buy two mainhands then just take all the mods out and put it in an offhand weapon.

Does force shroud offer the same thing (+more) as unbreakable will (the bolded text) and a bit extra? or does the force shroud refer to bleed/burn and such?

Unbreakable will: Summons the unbreakable will of the Sith, immediately freeing you of all incapacitating and movement-impairing effects.

Force Shroud: Removes all hostile removable effects and increases your chance to resist Force and tech attacks by 100% for 3 seconds. Does not break Stealth.
