My main is actually a BH Merc. I really like playing him and I find him to be loads of fun. If you think that you will like the option to tank that definitely go powertech. Both specs have viable DPS but also play extremely different. I like the fact personally that I have healing options even though I'm dps (it helps in emergencies) but I am sure that powertech has some "oh no" spells as well.

As Kasper said because it's up to you as your the one who plays it. What I tend to do is look at the progression video on SWTOR and see which play style fits what I like.

Also my armstech can make weapons up to lvl 20.

yes he has blades for Qyzen...even one that is a lvl 17 blue. :)

If I have the mats I'll be happy to make it.

Hay all you newly starting republic toons. I have a bunch of med armor - strength base as well as cunning base pluse a bunch of light armor that I would like to give away to guildies. Chest pieces, boots, gloves, legs a couple of off hands with will power and I think there is one with strength.

I also have 4 pieces of heavey armor under lvl 10, 3 are legs and I believe the other one is gloves...I think. LOL

This armor is all under lvl 10 and honestly most of it is around lvl 3-5. Good stats for starting gear.

So let me know if you want any pieces and I'll have my banker mail them out to you.

Please list the toons name you want me to mail them to or if your shy list your main, either way no worries as I want folks to get some use out of it as it's just collecting dust.

BH was actually my first toon that I rolled and is currently my highest. I went Mercenary because I thought I wanted to heal with him. That was until I discovered healing as a sorcerer. So, I respecced for DPS and have loved it so far.

If you're really just wanting to DPS, you can do so either as a Merc or Powertech. The difference is that one tanks better and the other heals. From your post, it already sounds like you've made up your mind about which direction you'd like to go. It's a tough choice, but ultimately one that you'll have to make as you're the one that will have to play the toon. :P

one of the big incentives for this is coordination. It's frustrating to be in pvp pugs where there is no leadership and the enemy takes advantage of our lack of organization. It's not so much the losing as the doing it so poorly. If that makes sense

heh. I just realized that there probably aren't many BHs in the guild. :)

And the voice of Batou from Ghost in the Shell does soooo many voices in this game! :D :D :D



I'm not sure which of Batou's voice actor's is which, but both of them are in the game but neither of them have their character credits on IMDB.

Going back to my previous post, I looked up the names I was missing:

I've noticed Johnny Yong Bosch (Ichigo Kurosaki from Bleach) playing Torian Cadera and Tom Kane (Professor Utonium from Powerpuff Girls) playing M1-4X :D Tom Kane has actually played many many times in many different Star Wars TV shows and games, even in some Star Trek games. :3

Here is the full cast, but while there are sooo many listed, very few of them have the characters they voiced listed next to their names.

So i started a BH and really enjoyed it. I have been doing dark or light side responses purely by whim, not worrying about going all light or all dark. I'm nice to good people and hard on bad guys (not in a good way).

I have to pick an advanced class. My problem is: I love dual pistols (available from healing AC) but I prefer tanking to healing. So I'm looking for feedback on the BH from you who've played it to get an idea of which I would enjoy more. I will likely focus more on dps. I definitely won't be a healer with this toon, but I do enjoy tanking. (mainly I play republic but I want to see what the content on the other side is).

Anyway, input appreciated. I could probably get over not having dual pistols, but I already don't have that for my smuggler scoundrel...

Montrose is Armstech

i'm curious to check it out with you guys.

I would probably either bring
Ube-halaya: tk sage OR
Xcentric: smuggler scrapper

re: times... certain weekday evenings are probably more reliable. weekends tend to be oot and aboot.

I play as much as I can. Vid games keep me out of trouble. I wont be on much at all till next week or so after I get this move situated but my future schedule should look like this:

Mon-Thurs 6am-12pm PST
Fri-Sun I'm off work so I could be on anytime. Peak hours will be 3pm-12am PST

Empire: Dendaius (main), Madduin, Akitas
Republic: Eh.. I might delete her. Helixa.

What a great post, I went to look at the list and well I must be out of touch cause I have no idea who any of those folks are.

What a great job on BioWare's part!

Hay!!! where is Gerard Butler!! :)

Not sure what we can do. I've seen this king of attack over and over with anything gay these grps come out from under their rocks and start attacking.

Once the facts come out these folks usually crawl away until another (fill in the blank) comes around and they start all over again.

They will not be able to register on the SW:ToR forums unless they have an actual game key so good luck with them spaming. Also, if I remember it correctly most of the posts on the SGRA topic where positive and the community supported them - Straight and Gay.

Since this is a game you have to pay to play I'd suspect that BioWare is not going to change what they already have in other games. That is unless they have millions of folks leave. I'm hopefully this horrid grp of folks will ever make any thing other then a lot of hot air and hate preaching.

Plus I can't help but think of Fried Rice and Chicken whenever their name pops up.

I came here to voice my concern over their intolerance, but now all I can think about is lunch....

And now I'm totally going to be on the listen for Armin Shimerman and Juliet Landau (Cmdr Koenig's daughter, and Druscilla from Buffy/Angel).

The Blake's 7 fan in me is thrilled to see Paul Darrow as the voice of Tremel. I just figured it was someone who did a good PD impression.

Thanks for starting this thread!

Lacy Chambert is the voice of Mako!

Also, can anyone find out who the voice of Yadira Ban (the last boss in Black Talon) is? It sounds so much like Mila Kunis but it isn't.

Not for certain, Ripleys group never found the other ship or more than a couple of its crew in the derelict. They could have ended up like Ripley, cold sleep and drifting.

It cracks me up that they dare to have the word "research" in the title of their religious hate group.

I think one of the things that we need to keep in mind is that the guilds are still taking shape and growing into a community. It takes time to build a community, even if the guild existed in another game. Community is based on relationships of its members and those relationships take time and work.

When I first joined the game, I joined as a member of Rough Trade/Taint. I switched to Stonewall because after rolling an alt and joining Stonewall, I found that it had more potential for community than Rough Trade/Taint--that is not saying Rough Trade/Taint wasn't a great place to be because it was. There are some great folks in RT/T but the folks in Stonewall won my heart with their friendliness, humor and welcomingness (I think I made up a new word) of this off the wall Lesbian.

I've gotten to know some folks better than others and have found that most folks are just as off the wall as me but it has taken me time to get to know folks and for them to get to know me. When Zepari said the heart of a guild is in its members, he is right. The relationships we form (online, in game, in real life, whatever) make the guilds what we want them to be.

I'm off my soap box now other than to add that I have yet to meet anyone that I didn't like in Stonewall on either faction. I love hanging out with you all and will continue to do so for a very long time.
