I was in a group of 20 doing some PvP the other day and i got to say the SL REALLY made the difference
With buffs and brandy SL ham costs are all Zero you can spam skills as fast as a macro can spam them.
1. Spaming Formup every 2s made it impossible to be dizzy/kded and stuned
2. Spaming retreat every 2s made us have constant burst run (yes thats right if you spam it it NEVER runs out) witch in turn made:
a. melee people more effective by leting them get into range better
b. doctors more effective my leting them cure poisons and diseases MUCH faster
c. when we smoked them they all ran away and we easily caught up to them after their burst run ran out
3. Spaming steady aim every second made almost every attack have a to hit bonus
4. Cured all mind wounds from all the poisons with the TKAs in the group meditateing soaking up group wounds (some people with over 1500 mind wounds)
Those things are pretty good not to mention the melee and ranged def and terrain neg
I woundnt do any large group PvP without one
Also on a side note:for those of you with jedi in your guild one of the BEST ways to kill a jedi (expecially if he is high level) if to Dizzy/KD them. Why? cause they can use forcepowers while on the ground includeing their healing state and Ham powers. ALSO jedi block doesnt block melee attacks so you can dizzy/kd them and kill them pretty quickly. BUT with a SL grouped with one you can cure his dizzy AND you dont get a TEF so they cant kill you. So, get your special jedi friend a present this chrismas become SL.

- A Jedi can use force powers the same way a player can use specials while Dizzy/KD (read: if you know how to do it, no hindrance). They just clear their state and stand up (PvP experience dones only, though)
- /retreat lasts for about 15 seconds. No need to spam it every 2
- /formup needs only be spammed while Status effects are on the group
- you should use /rally as well (keep the group constantly rallied while hunting big game or in large PvP battles)
- spamming steadyaim, while working, is a waste of time in most instances.
But i agree, that SL are extremely usefull, especiall yin large groups...
You just should use combat skill smore than simply spamming your SL specials. You will help your group out a lot more doing so, than just senseless spamming specials.
A lesson learned fast in PvP...
