SWTOR - Smuggler Guide: Gunslinger PvP Spec / Build Saboteur Level 50

[MrMixa994]

For the Last talent in the Tree Incendiary Grenade is useless (to me). So I by passed that talent and went into dirty fighting 11 points. Taking the Shrap Bomb talent...it does more dmg and it doesn't need to be targeted on the ground which can be tricky with the delay problem they are having in fast paced PvP (do not get me wrong the talent is good in situations like Void stars for stoping the people to plant) but you can do the same thing if you bleed them) Ether way nice guide...:)

Too much talking, too few actual examples of how does the build roll.

@Lerciezje Then watch the actual spec in rotation then on one of my other videos :P

incin grenade is amazing for warzones, just toss it at the objective and you are defending every 18 seconds and no one can capture it. sounds pretty boss to me.

you also complain about not getting the full effect of the dots, well when u go into a fight u want to take out everyone not just 1 person and die. toss them on other players u are going to kill later and dps ther other guy, there is so much movement that u will end up losing that target to los and u can switch to the dotted target

hey just wanted to say.. you think that saboteur doesnt have good burst and i have to correct you on that.

Basically when i play, shock charge + vital shot (go into cover) sabotage charge + aimed shot + either execute or another instant ability... basically you have 2 dots that tick as ur sabo charge explodes and ur aimed shot hits plus an execute or something all at the same time that is the definition of burst haha... you just dont see it that way.

plus incid

@Gangletronic well i think he is compareing it to sharpshooter which has more single target burst and dont say it doesnt :P

also I have def screen coupled with ballistic dampers in marks, hard to kill. You forgot to mention also that the incendiary grenade is freakin awesome in warzones to keep ppl from tapping nodes. I'm enjoying this spec and kinda hate to let out that its actually pretty good, I like to be the rare non-marks gunslinger.

I agree with all except hot pursuit, you still have to stand still to use it and if you are standing still it's just too easy to pop cover. It's not enough dmg to worry about anyway imo, charged burst is a fairly mediocre attack and grenades do as much dmg..every 3 secs insta cast.

Hey, last few days I've been trying to find some saboteur gameplay footage, with no luck, and this is the only thing I've found. Would really like to see some of the abilities in action, the kind of damage and so forth, there's tons of videos of pretty much every other spec in the game, but not saboteur, so I'm wondering if there's any chance you might just do a videos showcasing the saboteur, PvP or PvE, doesn't matter much to me :) thanks
