Man I was reading that post and was getting ready to totally flame you, until the 0-8-0 part, where I finally figured out what was going on. Where's my coffee, I think I need to wake up...

I don't see how they won't add a 15s cooldown on that skill with the next patch. Clearly it's something this skill should have had to begin with.

Come on, are you suggesting they released content that wasn't ready? You are going a bit far bro! (not)

Put a 15s CD on that ability and no one will ever complain again. And don't get me started on phase-walk. EDIT : I wouldn't mind they lowered the cost if they added a cooldown.

We are not talking about the class being subpar or OP. We are talking about one very special ability that is being abused in HB. Quit complaining that the class was useless before, no one believes you.

I must say it happened to me in a HB yesterday. Was 6-0 in no time at all. It's so retarded, I can't help but feel that those defending it are being a little dishonest. And comparing it with Shadows and Sage utility, just no... The thread is about how you can abuse that skill in HB, not general utility.

I think they are trying to tune the system so that in PvP: Conqueror > Partisan > Underworld > Arkanian > Other gear And that in PvE it's: Underworld > Arkanian > Conqueror > Partisan > Other gear If it's like that it's perfect.

If you have any Expertise on a piece, the bolster will think it is a PvP item and not bolster the Expertise. Hence you'll be stuck at +41 for thatt item. It's better to replace it with something else and let the bolster work. In the case whee the item is a PvP item (i.e. Partisan or Conqueror level), since all mods and enhancements and hilts have Expertise, put on the Expertise crystal.

Oh you're doing the wrong thing. For bugs, come here on the forum and post all your hate, saying that this was THIS thing that have made you and your mother unsub... No...wait... Fill in a bug report and wait for them to fix it I hate when that happen too, but at least you aren't stuck or something. Btw, I read your name as EAtheDEAD.

Caps make you look like you are REALLY angry. I think they better should start paying attention to this post.

So giving them 1500 would make them equal. It's bound to be less then since they said bolster brings you to EWH level, and that Partisan and Conqueror would be stronger yet. I'm guessing more than 1000, but less than 1500.

Not signed. Although it's not perfect atm, I would rather they kept it than having to deal with teams of 4+ greenies against fully geared Empire teams. THAT was no fun in pre 2.0.

Although it'd completely destroy Artifice if they did that.

Can't remember when or wheree, but I read they were discussing taking the stats out of color crystals completely. Ain't a bad idea imo.

Don't bolster also work on the western part of Ilum, where they have the gree event? It's worth checking.

If you have any expertise on a piece, the system doesn't know what to do with the bolster. So your expertise on that item would not be bolstered and would only give you +41. If you remove it, the system recognizes it as something it should bolster and you will get the full expertise buff for that item. Basically, if your item his Part/Conq and has expertise on the hilt, mod and enhancement, you should slot +exp crystal. Otherwise, remove it and slot +power. Hope that made sense.

Jokes on you pal.

First, EWH and WH where made stronger in WZ, not weaker. And there is bolster in the gree event area so it's the same as being in a warzone. The only place your EWH won't have expertise is in the field (i.e. Sector X). Just don't go there for a week until you get full Partisan. It's no big deal. On the other hand the stat boost they gave you will work everywhere. The only people with expertise in the field are going to be lvl55 full Partisan or Conqueror. Anyone under 55 won't have access to it so any "unfair" ganking will come from level 55 who anyways have a level advantage over you.

RGR that part about WoW. Thanks for pointing that out, it makes even less sense people are whinning about this. I'm playing my EWH guardian in PvE content and I'm doing fine, while it being 5 levels underleveled gear-wise... As a side note, any good player will be 55 in 2 days, and will have full Partisan maybe a week after (if not instantly with saved up comms) so I really don't see the point of complaining for maximum 10 days of playing with your OMG-they-ruined-my-uber-EWH gear. And It's only in your head it's ruined.

Just to say, hardcore PvPers are already full Partisan by now, so your point doesn't stand. If you read more than two lines, you would have realized that the only place it'll affect you is in the field. WZs are not affected by this since the bolster takes care of you. I was pissed at the change too at first, but reading twice, I think they've made a clever move.

Im still trying to figure out what's the point to bolster in lvl55 bracket. The gear you got is the gear you got. You should pay the price to come in a WZ in greenies at lvl55.

Any complaining before tuesdays patch is pointless, they said they heard us and would tune it up in the patch. Did you want them to bring the game down on saturday night for the fix?

You know, I was always wondering why they allowed those, while prohibiting adrenals. Both should be out.

I have issues when a troll walk in the PvP forum and claims that PvP was fine before. Are we even playing the same game? I would be surprised to go see your posts pre-2.0. They were probly complains about how broken the game is. Really, it's not perfect right now, most people haven't mastered the changes to combat, but it's headed in a better direction now. I can only speak for Vigilance Guardian, but the cspec was greatly improved.

Just to say, skill =/= coordination. I played against this team yesterday, 3 healers vs 1 healer. We got like 5 kills, and got owned. Both team had no great players ( I'll include myself, not used to the new guardian yet ) and no team had coordination. And once you start overdying in Denova, you get to a point where your team is just feeding them 1 by 1. I found it no different than 1.7 though. The same issue could happen, with more bubble stuns.
