Thank you everyone and I agree it has to be a muscle memory. I found it was much easier last night in a HM Flash point fighting the bosses.
I have my rotation arrange in a line and will set up my N52TE keyboard with key-binds.

I did find if I got out of my rotation that I had to watch my energy management. I will keep working on it and thank you all for your help and input.

Coming from UT for 8 years to playing MMO SWTOR has been a journey. :thumb

My new UI is now on all of my 4 characters so I can keep my rotations fast. :bouncy

Both of my agents are having a roll to cover issue with showing you the green man silhouette and when you click, it rolls you in the same spot 2x or 3x and never making it to the green man silhouette. I had other Nor Guild mate with me see this happen.

I have to move to where I do not see the green man silhouette then crouch in place.

I will have to go to my Key binds and see what I can do to fix this issue until SWTOR comes out with a patch. Not holding my breath.

Please note I have put in 2 tickets in game and posted on SWTOR Bug Report area.

Anyone else having this issue?

It's happened to me a few times. Even on the smuggler side, though I purposefully try to not use the green roll cover as too often then not, it puts me in a position that I can't see the target.

BTW Doz, can I take a gander at your UI? Do you have it set up for PvP or PvE? Don't do PvP but any little bit helps. Currently using Gio-Cefalu UI from http://www.swtorui.com/downloads/info8- ... ralUI.html for everyone. Needed a little tweaking to get it to work on my monitor size but it's really nice, especially for Sofija.

My UI is built very close to YouTube but with added Bar 5 and 6 moved to left and right on bottom of screen ( each with a Box of 6 items)
left 5 bar is below my character picture and Right 6 bar is put below the dummy in the YouTube.
Both 5 and 6 are up against my 3 row you see above..

This has helped me focus better and cut time down looking up and down.

Here is my new UI

It's my leveling one so in my 55 one I have more keybinds and no XP bar shown.

Thank you. Watching the youtube, my rotation for Chee and Eyjolf is very close to that which I just picked up on my own. Do need to get in the practice of hitting the procs and cooldowns better, but the overall flow is very similar. I'll have to get some practice in. Don't have a training dummy on my ship though.

When you go to crouch to start the fight on Agent or Scoundrel you will see the green silhouette man showing where you will go to cover and get the defense buff.

The BUG /Issue is you roll in place 2 and 3 times. Never making it to the green silhouette man and never firing a shot.



You can move around until you do not see the green silhouette man or use a temporary fix below
Posted fro SWTOR
There is an option to take cover without "rolling" to cover in your key bindings under preferences. If you go to your Preferences menu, on the bottom there is a tab for key bindings. Select the "targeting" section and bind the "take cover in place" key to the one of your choosing. That will cause your character to take cover in their current position, rather than attempting to roll.
You will have to do this on each Character. I have bound it to Mouse 4 of my MX518 :thumb

WOW! That's an intense UI :) I like it, though I don't think it would work for me due to my monitor size and resolution, but willing to give it a shot if you could upload it.
