I'm an Operative(conceal) and we've been taking huge hits to our AC since beta.

I'm lucky to crit for 3,200 on my relic'd,stim boosted, Hidden Strike.(9 pc Champ armor)

I wish now that I'd have rolled sniper with a concentration in Engineering.(don't know what the mirror is). Have you tried that out? The AOE on Ilum and WFs seems that you'd be able to wreak havoc on the cluster mobs and trains without worrying about cover or mobility issues.

Yeah, you guys have gotten a perhaps unfair nerf. I just prefer that playstyle over squat and shoot. I've been leveling a vanguard now because I love how agile it is.

It's Saboteur for smuggler... and no, I went with the sharpshooter build (I think it's marksmanship for the agent). Tremendous single target burst damage, but long fights are no good. That's mostly a problem with tanking companions, though. Saboteur/Engineer are really only used in PvP, it seems, and you rarely hear anyone even talk about dirty fighting, or the shared smuggler tree.
