Powertech/Vanguard DPS Compendium

[thrakkemarn]

To be honest I really do not think sacrificing damage is worth it. Fights are usually hard because of enrage timers or burn phases, not because of a lack of healing or tank survivability.

Also, yesterday I tested out the 28 point pyro build vs a full AP build on world bosses, dpsing them for 3 minutes, 4 minutes and then 5 minutes multiple times and averaging the results. The 28-point pyro build did on average 1.5% more DPS than an AP build. My main spec is tank so I can't really re-spec as much as I'd like, but over the next few weeks I'll keep doing this to test builds as I get more Rakata dps gear. If someone else wants to run more extensive in-game tests on world bosses that'd be cool, I don't have the time. Currently though I'm sticking to my guns that 28-point pyro is the best Powertech dps spec.
