    Hard decision to make...

    Hey guys, I'm really having a hard time deciding the class which I'm going to play at launch. The 2 main classes and AC are :

    - Sith Inquisitor Sorceress

    OR

    - Bountry Hunter Mercenary

    I know both can be healing and that's why I'm looking for those classes, and I have played both Inquisitor and BH to around lvl 15. Still it seems like hard to make up my mind. Can any of you guys maybe help me out a bit? Would appreciate it a lot

    Do you know how I made up my mind on what class to play? I went to Torhead (or any database site), and "studied" the classes I was interested in Abilities'list and played a lot with their skill trees, making specs with all the sub-trees.

    You should give it at a try if you didnt already do it.

    Tbh, it's really not about the skills (and yes I know most of them), but more about the play style. I know BH merc is really fast phased and what I have seen of those sorceress pvp video they don't do any damage at all, but that may be that they just suck.

    Yeah, I was rolling SI Sorc (They have great dps fyi) until I saw the Swotrprogress stats for the class, now I've decided on BH Merc Bodyguard.

    definitely take a look at the resources

    Jedi Knigh/Sith Warrior and Sith Inqisitor/Jedi Consular have to work with a far less restrictive resource system than the other classes.

    It's either that they suck or are focused on healing. IDK much about Commandos, but Sorcerers are strong in any of their specializations. Lightning is probably a little weaker than Madness, but it's still really good.

    As far as I know the healing with Sorceress is more like energy in WoW, but the BH healing seems like you can heal a lot if you know how to keep your heat meter low all the time. I really did like the story of inquisitor and all, but still i'm having hard choice between those two. BH seems so fast paced and fun!

    The Assassin is like Energy, the Sorcerer is more like Mana and you have no evocation or similar tools. Gotta manage the bar all the way down.

    Actually healing on a merc IS healing with energy, only heat/ammo is suffering a non-linear regeneration so if you have to go all out in order to keep everyone alive you might find yourself being utterly useless if you blew your vent heat CD already... Sorcerers are more like mana healers.

    Does it mean that BH may not be as competitive as sith inquistor healer?

    Not a lot of endgame testing. General PoV from people I respect with that sort of thing, though, say the non-Force healers are just as good, but harder to get the basic grasp of.

    Be a hero - roll Republic.

    That way you can be outnumbered 2:1 and kill children in videogames (children comprising a huge number of Sith - "Die, Sith Younglings!")
