Fri, 10 Feb 2012 09:21:34 +0100

Are you playing as a Bounty Hunter in Star Wars: The Old Republic and want to learn how to build your advanced class properly for PVP? If you want a quick guide to show you solid builds, you have definitely come to the right place!

My name is Connie Heo and I have been addicted to SWTOR ever since beta. I consider myself to be a solid SWTOR player and have been using these builds to help me dominate my enemies quickly and easily.

I have even helped other people create viable builds through different forums and websites along the way! So, in this guide I will show you multiple builds that will allow you to effectively dominate your enemies for PVP.

SWTOR Bounty Hunter PVP Builds

PVP battles in warzones are the most fun in Star Wars: The Old Republic. Killing real players instead of AI gives you a real satisfaction that you just can't receive by killing enemy mobs.

With the proper Bounty Hunter PVP build, you will be able to quickly destroy your enemies and complete your objectives to win the warzone. However, you must realize that winning PVP does not necessary rely 100% on the build that you have for your Bounty Hunter.

Although it plays a huge role, factors such as team strategies, ability rotations and gear all influence how well you will do in Warzones. Below, I will only cover PVP builds for your Bounty Hunter that will significantly give you an advantage in Warzones.

SWTOR Bounty Hunter Mercenary PVP Build

PVP'ing as a Bounty Hunter Mercenary can be devastating to your opponents as you can melt them down with your high DPS before they are able to reach you.

For my Mercenary, I chose to spec into the Pyrotech tree as I felt that this was the best for PVP due to the constant snares and CC that I was able to use. This proves very useful in team fights to focus opponents down.

My PVP build for my Bounty Hunter Mercenary at level 50 is 3/7/31. This build allowed me to use Sweltering Heat and the ability to use Rapid Shots frequently (which gives 40% chance to snare), which is extremely handy to avoid over-heating.

Below is a screenshot of my completed PVP build of my Mercenary.

SWTOR Bounty Hunter Powertech PVP Build

The Bounty Hunter Powertech is a force to be reckoned with in warzones with the right build. Their natural tanking abilities combined with their damage output and AOE attacks from this PVP build allow them to melt enemies quickly while tanking heavy damage.

My completed PVP build for my Bounty Hunter Powertech is 30/11/0.

I decided to spec into the Shield Tech talent tree for my Powertech because I wanted more surviability in the warzone. I also found that this build allows you to have better Crowd Control, enabling you to be very useful in team fights and situations.

If you would rather have some added damage instead of focusing on survivability, I recommend that you build your Powertech at 31/8/2. It sacrifices endurance for damage thanks to the Iron Fist talent.

This PVP would work better if you are confident in your defensive skills in warzones.

Below is my completed PVP build for my Powertech at 30/11/0.

SWTOR Bounty Hunter Tank Build

Fri, 10 Feb 2012 09:20:54 +0100

Are you playing as a Bounty Hunter in Star Wars: The Old Republic and want to learn how to build your advanced class properly for tank? If you want a quick guide to show you solid builds, you have definitely come to the right place!

DPS builds can be created for both advanced classes for the Bounty Hunter, however if you want to tank, you will only be able to do so with the Powertech.

The reason for this is because the Mercenary has little to none defensive talents, which will prove to be detrimental on the battlefield. With that said, I will only show you the tanking build that I used for my Bounter Hunter Powertech.

You may be surprised after you see my tank build for my Powertech as it is not as conventional as your run-of-the-mill tanking build for Bounty Hunters. The tank build that I completed at level 50 for my Powertech is 24/17/0.

I did not want to put all of my points into Shield Tech because I did not want to sacrifice 100% of my damage to taking heavy damage from enemies. However, if you do not like this build, you can always go for the standard Powertech tank build of 31/8/2.

Anyways, below is a screenshot of the tank build I discussed at level 50.

SWTOR Bounty Hunter DPS Builds

Fri, 10 Feb 2012 09:20:15 +0100

Are you playing as a Bounty Hunter in Star Wars: The Old Republic and want to learn how to build your advanced class properly for DPS? If you want a quick guide to show you solid builds, you have definitely come to the right place!

Building the proper DPS build for your Bounty Hunter will enable you to tear through enemy mobs or PVP other players quickly and easily.

DPS builds can be both created for each advanced class of the Bounty Hunter. However, it is obvious that the Bounty Hunter Mercenary far surpasses the Bounty Hunter Powertech in damage output per second.

With that said, you are still able to create a nice DPS build for your Powertech, but it would most likely be a hybrid of DPS paired up with its natural tanking abilities.

Below, I have outlined DPS builds for both the Mercenary and Powertech. These builds should do well in almost any situation you may encounter in SWTOR.

SWTOR Bounty Hunter Mercenary DPS Build

The Bounty Hunter Mercenary in SWTOR excels at DPS. This advanced class is able to deal heavy damage to incoming enemies and maneuver around the battlefield quickly to keep constant pressure on enemies.

To create a pure DPS build for my Mercenary, I spec'd into the Arsenal talent tree. After experimenting with both the Arsenal and Powertech tree, I found that the Arsenal talent tree gave me the most sustained DPS on average.

The build that I concluded on at level 50 is 7/31/3. This DPS build allowed me to a huge amount of damage output due to the high Accuracy and Critical Damage. Keep in mind to always have good heat management when you are using this build.

High DPS builds like this for the Mercenary can give you heat very quickly. If you cannot manage your heat well, you will be standing on the battlefield using default attack rendering you useless to solo or team play.

Below is a screenshot of my completed build at level 50.

SWTOR Bounty Hunter Powertech DPS Build

Although the Bounty Hunter Powertech isn't a natural at DPS, you can still create a build to do some fairly decent damage to your enemies or mobs.

For my Powertech, I spec'd the majority of my points into Advanced Prototype while sending a few points to Shield Tech and even less to Pyrotech. The reason for this is because I feel that Advanced Prototype deals much more damage than the Pryotech tree from my experience. My completed build at level 50 is 8/31/2.

This DPS build emphasizes on good damage output combined with nice AOE attacks, CC and interrupts. You can tweak this build to your liking a bit if you want more sustainability on the battlefield by adding your talent points into armor.

Below is my completed DPS build for my Powertech at level 50.

SWTOR Bounty Hunter Leveling and PVE Build

Fri, 10 Feb 2012 09:19:44 +0100

Are you playing as a Bounty Hunter in Star Wars: The Old Republic and want to learn how to build your advanced class properly for leveling and PVE? If you want a quick guide to show you solid builds, you have definitely come to the right place!

The high damage output combined with its ranged attacks makes the Bounty Hunter Mercenary very good at leveling and PVE.

However, I have heard many instances that people spec into the Bodyguard tree for leveling and PVE due to its ability to be one of the strongest healers in the game (this would only be good for leveling in party).

I have seen many people do well with Bodyguard, but I prefer to deal a large amount of damage to my enemies rather than play a supporting role in team fights. The leveling and PVE build that I went with for my Mercenary is 5/31/5.

I put most of my points into Arsenal because it allows me to do a lot of DPS from a good range, allowing me to take down enemies before get in range. Below is a screenshot of my talent tree at level 50.

SWTOR Bounty Hunter Powertech Leveling and PVE Build

For my leveling and PVE build for my Bounty Hunter Powertech, I opted to spec into the Shield Tech talent tree. The reason I wanted this was because I wanted greater protection for my character and have upgraded safeguards to increase my survivability while taking on huge mobs.

My completed leveling and PVE build at level 50 is 32/9/0. This build allowed me to take out enemies with its superior defense combined with its flamethrower abilities to melt mobs away quickly and easily.

Keep in mind that I chose to build my Powertech in the Shield Tech talent tree because I wanted to stay on the battlefield longer and tank huge mobs. However, if you are someone that would rather deal lots of damage quickly, you may want to experiment with Advanced Prototype talent tree.

Below is the screenshot of my talent tree at level 50.
