Nicholas Carrott :

Really miss your Vanguard videos and tips, Taugrim. I know 1.3 has hit PvP hard in SWTOR, but are you still playing?

I updated my Guide for 1.3.

Is there information you feel is missing for 1.3?

Valmus :

On FR forums, somebody wrote a guide for Powertech PvP, and that’s his stats prioritization :

Surge rating > Power > Aim = Crit Rating > Endurance > Accuracy Rating

Surge Rating suffers from DR pretty quickly around 200 or so. That’s been the issue since 1.1.3.

I generally try to get to 70% Crit Bonus Damage, which is ~190 Surge Rating or so.

Power AFAIK provides a linear benefit, which is why you hear people talking about Power stats on gear on forums.

Valmus :

The author also said that you should get as much Aim as you can, 75% surge, 25% crit… And also he said 90% accuracy is fine.

My guildie also thinks that Aim > everything else, so his augments are Endurance/Aim ones and he equipped a matrix cube.

Yes, Aim rocks, it provides AFAIK a fairly linear benefit in damage and also crit.

How much Accuracy depends on spec. Assault Spec VG / Pyrotech PT rely on Accuracy more because of high use of High Impact Bolt. Less so for tank and middle-tree specs.

Valmus :

So I have 2 questions :
1) Do I have to equip a matrix cube or should I run with two +expertise relics ?
2) Shoud I use Aim/Endurance augments in every slot or mix wth Endurance/Power or Endurance/Surge ?

1) I’d get 2 WH relics
2) Aim > Power. Surge I already mentioned.

Aim gives +damage and +crit.
Power gives +damage only.
