Gas Cylinders for BH

[Trunin]

Question I have is which cyl for which spec?

For DPS you'd want to use Combustible Gas Cylinder and for tanking Ion Gas Cylinder For Mercenary, you'd want High Energy Gas Cylinder. The main reason you use Combustile Gas Cylinder is that it procs your Railgun. Also, as you get higher in levels, Flame Burst also procs Railgun when this cylinder is active.

This depends entirely on your build, if you go let's say full Advanced Prototype, you'd want to use High Energy Gas Cylinder if you hybrid with pyro, well..things change a bit

For example, I play this http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#301hMhZrsr0orfkdsZb.1 and my main cylinder is High Energy

Hm.. thought you wanted to go owertech Vex.

With my merc spec. I went 5/33/3.

And I use High Velocity Gas Cylinder. It really helps with damage output for my dps spec by keeping my heat down while bombarding them with missles etc.

Now that I hit 50, guess ill try out the spec in some herioc flashpoints.

I was a bit wrong in my post..anyway, as Zakarian said, High Velocity is better for Merc. As for Powertech, take a look at our guide, you may learn a thing or two

Thanks for the replies. Just got the talent to exhaust some of my heat and the high velocity is certainly working better now.
