The guide for IG88 asks for the following proffs. 2 Jedi, 2 Bounty Hunters, 2 Medics, an Officer, and a Commando
I personally dont think its set in stone and it can be tweaked as long as the main elements are in place i.e. tanks, healers, damage dealers.
So just out of curiosity, I was wondering who would put their names next the roles. In the event that you have alts that fill more than one role - put the role you'd most like to play, then put in bracket any role you can fill- with names of alts.
So..
Jedi = Romizzi / Audie
Jedi = Martyn / Jibblett
Commando = (marrt)
Commando Amylee
BH = (Rommix)
BH
Medic = (Zul)
Medic = Alastrina
Non listed proffs = Pendarric = Spy =Briccys = Officer
Btw, if there are more of one proff ( think we can all see there are gonna be a few jedi) then we can rotate the teams, so one time we do it with me and mart as jedi, then next time another 2 jedi get a chance, and me and mart will play as alts BH and commando..
As you say its not set in stone done tuskan encounter with 3 jedis 3 mandos 1 smuggler and 1 medic, you may well need 2 medics are alaways handy but not always needed :) and done ig-88 without any bh's so it's all just how you play well in a team and co-ordination, anyways you can put me down in a commando position :)
Yes Stark I know BHs aren't needed at all if you have plenty of commandos ( and vice versa) but I put it down incase we have some of either and we can mix and match.. And everyone respeccing to medic...yes, its nice to have medics for events like these and they are a fun proff - but so is commando, ask stark :P

for heroics, is it worth fitting a res arm and wearing my hero ring? I could then self res once and res someone else once? I'd take a big hit on armour tho
I think I would say no. Although those abilities would be nice, we should have the correct number of medics in the first place, and use an officer as an officer.
If you take a hit on armour, you are more likely to die, then a medic will use a valuable heal to res you, then activate the lengthy timer on the res, only for you to possibly die again due to reduced armour :P
Tactically, (lol, I know :p ), we should sacrifice ourselves to protect the medics.
I'm really pleased with event turnouts lately and have even had more than 8 on some occasions. Unfortunatly a vast proportion of the group remain Jedi !
Although IG88 is heralded as the easiest heroic, I'm beginning to wonder if the tusken instance might be worth concentrating on more -since I know it can be done with a larger proportion of Jedi in group.
In the mean time, I know people with other available combat toons are spending time grinding them up and ultimately this can only help tons :D
Just thought, if we find ourselves struggling to finish any kind heroic, we should spend event times helping lower level toons up.
just think that we should crack the nut before playing with the nutcracker.
I can also respec Jibbys to something, he's lvl 90 BM spec atm, but would need a shopping spree for decent equipment for any respec as he has no armour or anything atm, but thats also an option I am willing to look at.
ok can put Ordie down for DPs on IG-88, but think Audie is more usfull in Tuskan, not sure about the Ns one ( always forget her name) and once i get audrie up to 90 she can do medic with alas

Waro, Osian and Monty (until medic 90) dont have any other combat toons other than Jedi. I don't need to spell it out. Surprised no one else can see it (or won't)
As I said, theres a nut to crack. We dont just need profs various, we need people who can play them :P I'm respeccing Jibbys to Medic or BH, just need to go shopping. Doesnt help with numbers as its an either or with me in that regard.

Some can see, some cant :D
And if were saying some people arent good enough in their chosen (and only) proff - can I not be the one to tell them they cant go on heroic instances?
Incidentally, without those people, do we even have enough people for a full group...
by some you mean me :P as youve underlined and put in bold my name, im not too fussed on what toon i take, as long as i get the stuff on audie eventually, just count ordie in for all heroics for now then

Anyone can go, ust would be easier if 1) people listened 2) people knew what they were doing
solutions to that are mulitfacted and mulit-'blame'
Quite frankly yes, I would like to bow out of future heroic events.
I have completed each instance mulitple times with Jedi and BH and have a relatively good idea how the dynamic of a heroic group works. On wednesdays and Sundays I turn down invitations from other groups to notch up more completions because at heart I'm a 'kindred spirit'. So I try to help US get some completions.
The only thing I stand to gain out of it is playing with my guild-mates. Since I can get loots and completions with other groups.
While my suggestions are point blankly ignored and I get criticised for even suggesting a full group of jedi cant do heroics, then I dont even get the 'pleasure' of playing with guildies.
Ivanhoe gets zero critisism for totally ignoring guild events in general, while having completed every heroic going.
I get **** for trying to help.
So no, no more heroics for me, in the interests of ending this whole thing I think it's the sensible thing to do. The only events that can possibly work for KS are ones where over 50% of group is a jedi. In SWG thats pretty much everything apart from Heroics. If you can't beat em, join em.. I'll turn up with my Lightsaber to kill nunas with everyone else.
