Are you playing as a Republic Trooper in SWTOR and want to learn how to properly build for advanced class for leveling and PVE? If you are looking to build a strong character, you have come to the right place!
Hello there, my name is Connie Heo and I have been an avid Star Wars : The Old Republic player ever since beta. I consider myself to be a solid SWTOR player and have helped many people create stronger builds to tackle certain situations.
Below, I have outlined viable builds for the Republic Trooper that I have used in the past to be effective in leveling and PVE.
So, if you are looking for a straight forward guide to help you create a stronger Trooper Vanguard or Trooper Commando in SWTOR, I will show you how to properly build your talents, skills and stats.
The first build that I will be covering in this Republic Trooper build guide is leveling and PVE. The reason why I will cover these builds first is because I feel that knowing how to level and PVE properly is one of the top priorities of SWTOR.
By learning how to properly build your Republic Trooper for leveling and PVE, you will be able to defeat large mobs, quests and elites effectively without having to wipe a hundred times.
Below, I have outlined leveling/PVE builds for both the Republic Vanguard and Republic Commando. Bear in mind that these builds below are suited towards my play style and might not necessarily reflect your best interest. If you do not like any of these builds, you may tweak or respec all together.
SWTOR Trooper Vanguard Leveling and PVE Build
When you have the proper leveling build for your Trooper Vanguard, you will be able to tank medium to large mobs well and destroy them quickly with your AOE abilities. The completed leveling/PVE build that I went with for my Vanguard is 4/6/31.
This build is more focused towards damage than survivability on the battlefield. The reason why I created this build was because I wanted a solo PVE only build.
I experimented with the Shield Specialist, Tactics and Assault Specialist talent trees and found that 4/6/31 was the better spec for solo PVE. Keep in mind that this suits my play style the best because I wanted to get up and close to my opponents to melt them away instead of resorting to my giant glowstick.
Also, remember to pick a companion that compliments your spec before you go and start leveling. Having a companion that is a good fit for your leveling/PVE build dramatically helps you when you are leveling.

SWTOR Trooper Commando Leveling and PVE Build
The Trooper Commando can either be built as a healer and support role or as a DPS and solo role when leveling.
The build that I settled on for my Commando was the DPS leveling/PVE build. The reason for this is because I do not really like to party with other people much since there are noobs everywhere, plus I love to deal heavy damage and quickly destroy large mobs.
For this reason, I spec'd into the Gunnery talent tree and put the remainder of my points in both the Combat Medic and Assault Specialist talent trees.
My completed leveling/PVE build for my Trooper Commando at level 50 is 5/31/5.
This build allowed me to take on multiple targets at once with my AOE abilities such as Hail Of Bullets, Sticky Grenades and Mortar Volley. However, you must learn to effectively rotate your abilities to ensure that you get the maximum damage when PVE'ing.
I typically tend to use my Hail Of Bullets and Sticky Grenades when my Mortar Volley is on cooldown. I find that these AOE abilities are excellent for keeping the pressure on while my high damaging skills are on cooldown.
