SW:TOR PvP Gameplay - Mercenary Bounty Hunter, Bodyguard spec (Healing)

[captainsmartass123]

insteading of blocking the chat, you do realize you can just click the button in the upper left hand corner and hide it in general, creating more view for us to see, just a suggestion :)

[HugeMojo]

@captainsmartass123 Hiding the chat while playing isn't a good idea, especially in Pugs. Your only form of communication when a specific side requires help or something he won't be able to know.

[captainsmartass123]

@HugeMojo good point, i do 4 man premades with guildies a lot thats why i say that, and in huttball pugs u dont really need chat i think.

[polopopoo]

thumbs up if your BH uses shift + 1 as your rocket punch

[godofchaos225]

the only thing i dont like about healing on my bh is heat managment, pretty sad that i can keep my heat lower as arsenal then body gaurd

[drbaltazar]

learn how to use supercharge gas mecanic work ,it is a pain in the you know where but once mastered ,you ll wonder how you could live without it!

[Midfrost1]

I stopped watching when he used Death from Above on one target...

[Pwaldeposh]

@Midfrost1 why? You can do 5k+ damage over 3 seconds even to 1 target.

[HugeMojo]

You can respec your current tree, but you cannot switch between advanced classes

[shadknify9269]

bh healing reminds me of shaman healing in wow

[regularmatt]

the casting animaction sucks

[AfflitionDriud]

did you change spec and can you do that in swtor change skill tree

[kingcory10]

im trying to see if i can make a merc thats half heal half dps basicly i got up to kelto missle then just under heatseekers in the talent tree hope itl work out how i think it will once i get all the points unlocked =p

[lokken000]

i really liked how you kept tight up on that Beam man while u was keeping the friendlies up at the start of the vid, Good stuff man, 9/10 :D

[AfflitionDriud]

do you think the best healers are bounty hunters bodygard or sith inquisitor Corruption what do you like more? if you have played them both

[TheAlbinpro]

which specialization is the best for pvp dps is it the mercenary or the powertech. and is which is the best pvp spec overall?

[jleack]

This is the best PvP video I've seen.

[diggles27]

healing looks pretty sad ass boring. they should allow more on the run casts

[AfflitionDriud]

can you change your skill tree if you want to change from dps to healer not advanced class skill tree

[AfflitionDriud]

are you healer spec hear?

[Carbon733]

My understanding is classes benefit from their main stat. So would aim increase healing if I was specced bodyguard? Pretty stack aim?

[MaseYevon]

@Carbon733 As far as I understand Aim increase both your damage and healing. At higher levels you'll want to get Crit and Surge (Increases damage dealt with critical hits) because both your damaging abilities and your healing can critical.

[Carbon733]

Hey faction, any word to your knowledge what the 2 main stats for BH bodyguard will be? Aim and cunning possibly?

[Noobzie123]

is this a good healer?:P compared to the others

[TheWowmaster98]

bodyguard seems more heat exhaustive then the merc dps specs? Is this just so that healing doesnt get way too powerful? or am i just completely off on this?

[faction60]

@TheWowmaster98 Its not, you can see I only get a lot of heat when I use damage spells

[TheWowmaster98]

@faction60 alright, wasnt going to change my decision to play bodyguard anyways, but its good to know as long as im not just plain out spamming heals, i should never have too much heat trouble. thx

[UlfrIronwood]

How do you make these videos while playing? Another program?

[Conway865]

Do you think BH bodyguard healing is comparable to SI corruption and IA Medic healing for PvP and PvE?

[Minimoosemoving]

nice vid, i'm working on picking my pvp healer for swtor, my big thing is does the class offer good cc abilities and interrupts along with healing...would you say that the bh fits that?

[iRLGreg]

@Minimoosemoving the bh lacks cc

[iSv3ns]

@Minimoosemoving BH doesn't bring a lot of CC, mostly because of it's armor type and ability to sustain a lot of beating.

If you want a healing class with a lot of CC then pick Operative. Lots of CC and Stealth aswell.

[degonite]

Does healing use the same gear as lets say the Mercenary DPS side of things?

[dunevenker]

@degonite Yes. Classes benefit from primary stats, no matter what "spec". For instance a Smuggler benefits from the Cunning stat from items, no matter which spec he/she plays.

[elrog84]

Column huger - strategy for every mmo pvp.....

[CaptainChaos100]

@elrog84 Create a MMO that doesn't have Line of Sight and you wouldn't need to.

[jacooI14]

Very nice! Try to charge up your gass more, its super effective, littel no heat heals while running ^^ plus mega boost in OMFGLOL sytuation

[faction60]

@jacooI14 yah man gotta get that mega boost OMFGLOL sytuatin!

[KyleClyne]

@faction60 lmao.

[terracearts]

Who the hell keeps laughing in this video? lol

[ScottG5683]

I have to ask do the bh healer have a in combat rez like the ia and scorcerer do?

[aesopsphere]

can you target a player to cast the healing bomb or can you only target the ground?

[ThatOneSWTORNerd]

so do you actually get a tallent in your talent tree that lets you shoot your own party members, but heals instead of hurting them? if so does it generate any heat at all when you use it as a heal? or is it a completely different spell

[raignsites]

@ThatOneSWTORNerd Bounty Hunters have things called canisters (think stances; Pally in focus, prot, or ret stance kinda deal) and the particular canister he's using is a Kolto Canister. It boosts your healing and allows you to use your Rapid Shots (If I recall that's the name) to heal other teammates by shooting them. It's a heat-free, small, heal.

[girifoxau]

Great video, thanks.

[mindw0rking]

Shows that skilled healer makes huge difference on BGs

[Z70FF3]

Is there gear aimed directly to Bodyguard BH's, or do they use the same as the DPS specs?

[Jamesy237]

Excellent playing! I think im sold on Mercenary, cant beat healing with blasters and missiles!

[Karnalsyn]

Whats your opinion on the BH heat resource for healing? You find you end up overheating too quickly?

[faction60]

@Karnalsyn The only time I overheat is when I spam too much damage spells. When i'm healing I never overheated.

[andge1001]

I really hope Bioware changes the sound of footsteps on metal floors :S

[GreaterbeingFilms]

Well played.

[Krogesh]

Is the blaster healing basically useless in PvP?

[blazinazn608]

@Krogesh its a small amount..very small. But its better than having to channel cast Diagnostic scan as a IA. So utilize it!

[faction60]

@Krogesh It heals for about 350, whereas my blaster shots hit for 500-600+. So I chose to spam my damage shots when I need to manage heat over healing.

[orangerabbit99]

@faction60 with the standard raid frame it didnt update for me but i increased the scale from the options to make it a little bigger and it started functioning fine. :)

[hotahtube]

@orangerabbit99 <3 if this works for me, you deserve so many hugs.
