I agree. Other guides usually over complicate and speak too fast. Not to mention the 2 hour long intros. I usually get way too up in my head about rotations etc and make it seem way more complex than it actually is. NONE of these classes are hard, and this dude proves that it's all about consistency when playing SWTOR rather than remembering 100 different things at once.
Just wanted to say think you for this content - my friends and I all use your videos to help us unlock better dps. You're a gentleman and a scholar (also Duke is lovely).
I used to play SWTOR a whole bunch back in the day and Pyro was my favorite spec. I'm gonna be getting back into it soon and low and behold this video pops up on my feed. Thanks for the concise explanation!
DUDE, best class guides I've ever seen on SWTOR and probably as good as any I've ever seen for WoW. And that's the cream of the crop for meta class guides. Thank you dude!
Something else that is not written anywhere, thermal yield decreases the cost of searing wave and immolate by 5 heat per stack if i am not mistaken, which means that at 3 stacks you have free immolate and free searing wave at 4 stacks. this basically means that during thermal yield you never actually get to use rapid shots as a filler and it increases your burst even more with guaranteed flame burst crits. I need to check the numbers again in case I am mistaken.
I have used your Guides for every Spec im playing and my Damage increased a lot by following your suggestions. Would love to see your individual DPS (StarParse Personal Info) while you are "working" on the Puppet - just to check if my Result is comparable. Keep up the great work. :-)
For pvp boiling point is fine to use for solo ranked games since you can combine the sonic missile dr with your kolto to be unkillable, you can also take pyro shield and reflective armor for solo ranked dps games since you want to maximize your dmg output before dying. Not many people realize that Chilling Retribution grants cc immunity during energy shield which is massive for life warden rounds.
i cant decide whether i should go for AP or Pyro. Burst of AP feels so good, but pyro on long fight feels more consistent. Any suggestions in Terms of Endgame Content mostly solo and flashpoints
Personal enjoyment will be most important in solo and flashpoint content, don’t need to be pumping the most damage possible. If you’re really looking to Min max, Pyro for flashpoints and AP for solo content, as APs burst will blow up SM ads in a few abilities, but the longer the fight goes, the more pyro tends to pull ahead
Hey Mark thanks for the video its helped a lot. By the way what's that chest piece your wearing assuming its an appearance outfit. Looks like your actually using a Forcehealers chest
@@scottkelley5892 I use this in line with superheated fuel, and rockets aren’t on the Global Cooldown, so you can hit them alongside your other abilities and both will go off at once.
Again just not hard to notice your dps shows 49k? Most I can get is 27k with 7.2 alacrity and 110% acc. Crit I'd 2893 just curious what your crit Is thanks
Mark i wanted to ask you something dumb, i have rakata full set, but it doesent scale good in pvp, actualy its kinda broken, i combine 306 and rakata do make good stats... It pisses me off where i have to do that for every character, is there any pvp gear thst scalea the true stats in pvp. Thanks brother for all your effort, best swtor videos there is
PvP scaling at the moment is broken to kingdom come. Not sure when it’s going to be fixed and unfortunately I do not have a solution for you other than what you’ve already suggested. Apologies my dude :(
@@Biggsgaming i love this game so much, but they keep destroying my enjoyment here, pvp is my everything here, and they cant manage some minecraft bugs with all that money, sometimea i do imagining that i go into their workplace with a golf club and beat the sht out them, makes slaves of them like. Pharaoh and force them to. Make best mmo ever
I know this have been recorded since months ago but I must ask you this question. Are you using fillers all the time in ranked or you go straight click with all the 5 spells (DoTs including) without fillers?
only thing I am struggling with is setting up the abilities on my bar that I don't mess up the rotation or get confused, I guess the break from swtor didn't do me good damn
is it just me or searing wave missed more than it hits? if thats the case that kind of breaks everything, the are standing right in the cone and get no damage done to them quite a lot for such an important damage ability
Both are in a really strong spot, AP brings a great armor break, Pyro provides phenomenal cleave. TBH it’s really dealer’s choice, both are perfectly viable on all forms of content. Gun to my head, I’d say Pyro just for burn and cleave, but AP is a close, close second.
you definitely need augments. on item rating 326 you need 3 accu gear pieces (dps set usually has 2 so either ear piece or one of your legendary implants as the third one), a stim and 8 purple augments. for alacrity you have 2 armor pieces that give the stat and usually the offhand gives it, too. finally either one of your implants has alacrity or you need 5 purple augments. rest into crit
Augments, sadly. You should be able to get there with the blue augments which will be significantly cheaper than the purple variants, but you'll be missing a bit of crit (which is a future problem)
LOL I hadn't noticed that! Play pyro I guess (that being said, the buff should be refreshed within that 15 second window regardless, but it's still hilarious)
You have by far the best class guides I’ve seen in my 10 years of playing swtor.
Same
If you do watch any of my class guides (I only have a few so far) let me know how you feel they compare :)

Love your guides, man. A lot of specs i've tested and loved because of you, keep up the good work.
15:05 Hahahaha „i Come to your House“ i love you 💯
Bro, thx 4 the Guide! I am back in Game After 8 Years! Perfect!
Thank you very much all the guides you post all of them have helped me a great deal.
This is best guide for spec i've ever seen in any games . Great job!
Primary Abilities Then Filler:
Scorch, Filler, Incendiary Missile, Filler, Rail shot, filler, Searing Wave, Filler, Immolate, Filler > Repeat from start
--
-- **Alternate between applying Scorch and not applying Scorch by replacing Scorch with Filler**--
--
Filler ability in priority:
Flaming Fist, Flame Burst, > Rapid Shot if over 35% heat
Optimal Rotation -
Scorch > Flame burst > Incendiary Missile > Rapid Shot > Rail Shot > Flaming Fist > Searing Wave > Flame Burst > Immolate > Flame Burst > Rapid Shot > Incendiary Missile> Rapid Shot > Rail Shot > Rapid Shot > Searing Wave > Flaming Fist > Immolate > Flame Burst
6:45 Yep. The sound of Rail Shot is why it's been one of my favourite abilities ever since launch.
Something else that is not written anywhere, thermal yield decreases the cost of searing wave and immolate by 5 heat per stack if i am not mistaken, which means that at 3 stacks you have free immolate and free searing wave at 4 stacks. this basically means that during thermal yield you never actually get to use rapid shots as a filler and it increases your burst even more with guaranteed flame burst crits.
I need to check the numbers again in case I am mistaken.
The same feeling when Duke knows the rotation better than I do.
Simple and at point spec guides. u go my sub :)
Lmao spam rapid shot for like 2 minutes once I have too much heat, that totally what I do 😂😂😂 thanks for the tips on how to play better!
very informative and well made guide video this helped me a lot thanks!

The hope of the scrubs ... ty good sir
You could also take the one legendary that gives you the EP so you don't die for 3 seconds, that's what I did and I loved it.
Any idea on why they changed the immolate animation years back? Considering how much damage it does, I feel like the old animation should come back
See the full rotation here if you want to memorize it like a nerd: imgur.com/a/O0UMNl1
hey @MarkBiggs
What is your armor ? it seems i can't find this one with the white glow 🙏
@@spiritodyssey4532 That would be the furious combatant armor (ranked pvp) with a white gray dye -- torf.mmo-fashion.com/furious-combatant/

thx again your guide!

Hey Biggs! What class has the best burst in pvp? I’m coming back and I have fun with burst and big numbers! Thanks again for the guides! You rock!
FURY MARAUDER BABYYYYYYY (or AP PT)
@@Biggsgaming Big numbers!!! Fury seems to be the god tier s far. I like AP PT - Go Cubs!
Do you have any content / recommendation for Arsenal?
Step 1: Respec
Step 2: Go back to step 1
Are you planning on doing Operative at all? I noticed you covered Sniper but not the Op, which needs all the love it can get right now :(
The ads come up fine but the build guide just sits on a black screen with a spinning circle.
What is your favorite companion? I would like to see a video on what companion or companions you like
th-cam.com/video/F0_FqOd4Do8/w-d-xo.html I gotchu
Why no Mando Warhead? I would imagine 7%+ ele damage would outweight the dot from PRS?
is it just me or searing wave missed more than it hits? if thats the case that kind of breaks everything, the are standing right in the cone and get no damage done to them quite a lot for such an important damage ability
Thanks A+ guide
What are the 2 best relics to use for Pyrotech in 7.0 ?
why is your mando arms package green whey mine is red for the color of the emplant ?
i dont have the scorch ability. im a pyro PT and its just not there wtf
You get it in the 60s. If you're higher than 70, check your skill menu
One cuestión, what stat I increse first when leveling? Thanks
Cute dog. :)
Damn mate what is that set of armor you have on your toon? It is cool.
What cosmetic chest piece is that? It's sick
What’s the gear you have here - full Thyrisian? Wondering how your Damage is so high
Is this build still viable and dope outfit
Which do you think is in a better place right now; advanced prototype or pyrotech?
Both are in a really strong spot, AP brings a great armor break, Pyro provides phenomenal cleave. TBH it’s really dealer’s choice, both are perfectly viable on all forms of content. Gun to my head, I’d say Pyro just for burn and cleave, but AP is a close, close second.
@@Biggsgaming Got it; thanks for the quick response. :D
nobody never ever can explain how to use 2 abilitys on one button.Like this shoulder cannon
If my heat is above 35 percent I will use rapid shot only as my filler.
Hey! I have a question. What gear do you use to get to both alacrity and accuracy thresholds? I can get my accuracy to 110 but never my alacrity too.
you definitely need augments. on item rating 326 you need 3 accu gear pieces (dps set usually has 2 so either ear piece or one of your legendary implants as the third one), a stim and 8 purple augments. for alacrity you have 2 armor pieces that give the stat and usually the offhand gives it, too. finally either one of your implants has alacrity or you need 5 purple augments. rest into crit
Augments, sadly. You should be able to get there with the blue augments which will be significantly cheaper than the purple variants, but you'll be missing a bit of crit (which is a future problem)
If you don't have the money for purple augs, you can can use 9 blue augs instead of 8 purple augs for accuracy
@@Biggsgaming Thanks!
where is kolto overload from?
Duke loves some filler. I love filler, too. If for no other reason than I finally get to use that gun I carry around everywhere.
Why not rail shot over mando warhead?
Question. How good is pyrotech when it comes to Raids?
Very strong, it’s basically all I brought going into nim gods
What helmet are you using on your outfit?
It’s the furious combatant helmet from ranked PvP
What level can I start tanking??
How good are powertechs, i have been playing as one but it doesnt feel as good as a sniper
I wish the pyrotech had a mad dash type of ability. Loving the class nevertheless.
You got that speed thing which is so much better than mad dash
If my heat is above 35 ill will CONTINUE to use my non filler abilities!
😆 🤣 come to my house i will buy you a meal 😆 🤣.. then we sit down and chill thanks for your help with this.
i love the swearing part :P
Assasin pls 😁
It’s coming. Don’t worry. I remind you that he need legendary implants for the classes. So the grind is massive for Biggs atm.
Dude wth? Heatstroke lasts for 20 seconds, Suppressive Heat lasts for 15 seconds.
LOL I hadn't noticed that! Play pyro I guess (that being said, the buff should be refreshed within that 15 second window regardless, but it's still hilarious)
How viable is this as a f2p player, if it's to bad i may just reup my sub just to not feel so bad lol.
Rotation doesn't get above 18k. Pretty cheap.
Then filler...
Late to the party but thank you for another great guide! Absolutely helping our R4 HM progression 🥲
