dont wear all the armor unless you are trying to look cool because

Gloves

Chest plate

Boots

Helmet


That is good enough right there it works the same as a full suit

If you are human migrate your mind and focus to 1100 and willpower to 800, all other stats at 400. This means that you can take 2 brandies and 1 ahrisa and with chest/boots/gloves/helmet you still have the 1500 focus needed for 0 mind costs.

canape has no effect on the mind cost, only the regen. and it lasts for 10 mins tops, so its actually pretty useless.






Uhh, no, it gives bonuses to both focus and willpower

The magic number is getting your "Focus" over 1500. If you can get it over 1500 your specials will not cost you anything. 2 Brandy's and 2 Ahrisa's is 1600+ you shouldnt have too take 3.

I'm bothan, 600 focus/500 willpower migrated to max obviously... I wear kinetic comp for pve, sliced for encumbrance...2 brandies and mind buff and I'm good (mind buff 125%).


For pvp, I do the same thing, and wait till we're into it to take a muon...as I go on a downer I take a canape and I'm good to go usually...

It kinda funny that in the tutorial and guide, humans are listed as the "generic" race with no big useful specials. How sooo wrong they were. I'm really hoping that with the combat revamp that other races MIND bonuses will actually have a use. Zabrak currently have that uber 1 point per second MIND regen bonus (*note sarcasm) which is a great trade off for having only 500 focus (drops to like 200 or less after composite is worn thank god for the armor bug).


2 brandies and 2 ahrisa at least (unless the canape has a 15min duration its worthless) is what everyone else but humans need to hit that magical 1500. I think wookies got it even worse. Lets not even get started on mind buffs (500 focus x2= 1000, 1100 focus x2= 2200!!!)

You have no HAM costs at 1600 focus...so just do(food, mind buffs) whatever you can to have between 1450 and 1600 focus minimum.

oh I wasnt doubting that. I meant I was correcting your post about why your would want to wear full comp. Trandos cant wear gloves or boots.
