My two suggestions for your build are the passive Improved Bursts and the active Fire at Will.
You are using a few burst attacks, so improving those should help. You could also swap in Surgical Steel to take advantage of the burst bonus.

If you are really only looking for PvP, I do not recommend The Secret World. Recently, there were some improvements to PvP content, but it really is not the focus of the game.
On the other hand, if an engaging story, missions involving puzzles a…
Originally posted by kiern How did starting fresh help, though? Maybe I am misunderstanding, or just missing something.
Couldn't you just take your existing character and rerun all the earlier missions, using weapons appropriate for those levels,…
I think some of the "elitism" in Agartha chat comes from players with a lot of Nightmare experience looking for others with similar experience and gear. Unfortunately, it can appear to newer players that the requirements they see posted are what's n…
My understanding is they included some additional choices when they added the option to change appearance and hairstyle after character creation.
I also enjoyed how creepy they made the NPC who allows you to change your physical appearance. "Look l…

Looking for a new time sink that isn't in Azeroth, where I spent the better part of the last 7 or so years.
About to seach for a FAQ on the game but am wondering - are the 3 secret societies like Factions from W…
I don't think "single player game disguised as an MMO" is a fair criticism of TSW. Much of the content can be completed solo, but most works well in a group, too. I like having the option.
I tend to do missions solo the first time through as I enjo…
It can take some effort to collect the lore, but I find the lore pieces well written and engaging. They fill in some of the background behind the quests you do and flesh out some of the characters.
Originally posted by Aranisus Hi. I was looking for good MMORPG and somebody told me, that TSW isn't bad choice. I've watched gameplays on YT and it doesn't look bad, but I want to ask about few things:
1. Are there many players in-game?
2. What…
I don't remember the AP coming particularly fast at that stage. I imagine the high-QL gear speeds everything up, though. It's good to hear you are finding the game more fun after starting fresh.
I restarted at the beginning when my initial trial an…

The term "faction pride" is cropping up a lot in recent discussions. What do you mean by it?
Just what it sounds like: you actually care about how your alliance is faring in Cyrodiil and …

4. Cryptic and WotC have actually worked hand in hand with this game to ensure that it's lore, as well as the details of characters, skills etc, are in-fact very close if not identical to what you'd find in 4ed D&…
As a member myself, I wholeheartedly recommend taking a look to see if Grievance is a good fit for you. We are an established organization of friendly, welcoming people.
Character customization seems to be one of the weaker aspects of the game. Many of the feats seem to give fairly small bonuses and the relatively high respec cost will discourage experimentation. Each class has a fixed set of powers and only a few o…
No, 4e does not have slashing/piercing/blunt damage. Weapon attack powers generally do untyped damage. Damage types such as fire/cold/poison/force do exist and have associated resistances.
Neverwinter does not seem to use damage types at all. Th…
I played Auto Assault in beta and bought it at launch. I didn't find it nearly as bad as most people in this thread seem to have. It was fun, but it started to get a little old, so I cancelled before I was charged for the second month. I think the G…
