Definitely an interesting use for the Phase Walk, I'm still very awkward with the ability, and use it mostly to control objectives.

My Documents -> Star Wars - The Old Republic -> Screenshots Check there.

Civil War - Assassin - How You Should Play the Game, it's the second thing you do. Mezz one, pop Recklessness and then open with lightning. When you return later to help defend, you do it again. Also you forgot to buff up after you died the first time. I can see that fighting was at the bottom of your to-do list for the wz, but still...

Is there any particular reason why open with lightning from stealth?

Aug kit mk-9 currently costs 125k+ on the Progenitor. Purple Resolve 28 augs go for 200k. Sum these two, then multiply by 14, and you see the potential need for some cash...

Without a proper ladder system, or some other equivalent, there is nothing to indicate what your skill level is within the game. Valor rating is completely irrelevant since you can only gain there, even when losing your way through wzs. There is only one progression in the game currently for PvPers, and that is the gear. If you remove that, then PvP will lose its appeal to the vast majority of people who now focus mostly on that. Without incentive, most lose interest, you cannot argue this point. You then end up with a PvP that is very much a side option akin to space battles, ignored by most everyone who plays the game. TL;DR while PvP should be about skill, the current system is inadequate, and proceeding with what we have now will lead to disaster.

8/10, smiled.

Question. I saw a guy whose only source of expertise was his mh weapon. He had 2k exp bolstered. Later, I saw another guy with no expertise from gear. Again, 2k bolstered. Both at level 55, both wearing some form of PvE purple gear, with a couple of blues. The question - HOW?!

The ladder system has its pros and cons. The biggest issue with implementing it is the lack of pvp-ers. Add in x-server, and then we can talk business, until then, it's all just wishful thinking.

My personal favourite is two sorcs, a jugg and an assassin in Huttball. It's such a joy to play against, I wish I can always face them. Ending the game in two to three minutes flat surely will one day make me a better player...

^ This, so much this! ^

And how about you do a simple calculation and compare the prices, and come to the logical conclusion that the disparity is nothing short of mind-boggling? Have a nice day...

So change the numbers, say +5%/+10%, but there needs to be some sort of reward for people who choose to mostly/exclusively PvP. Either that, or make PvP gear on par with PvE gear for PvE content. Which of these seems more reasonable to you?

Killer song. Shame nobody picked up on it so far

You could (and probably should) spend 3 points in Balance, pop Force Potency and enjoy your added 9% crit. It's nowhere near the 100% that Smash enjoys, but hey, it's better than nothing

Same thing here.

I was wondering, how are they distributed? I've gotten ~100 per win on a very slow, equal game, as well as a very fast, stompy game. This is all on 8+ medals. Just curious if the math behind it is known.

Good thing you're not going into 1v1 then, isn't it Or rather, you shouldn't, in a wz.

Same here. The only thing I find annoying is trying to kill a healer op, I just flat out can't do it unless a perfect storm of crits happen in a very rapid succession after opening.

Open with Spinning Kick, Shadow Strike, 2x buffed Force Breach. If still not dead -> normal rotation that has gone about 150% up in damage. It was fun for the first couple of insta-gibs, now I'm wondering who exactly thought it was a good idea in the first place... (Also, naked is not best. A very simple test I did tonight at level 53. Completely naked, ewh mh and wh oh ~ 1900 main stat, end and exp. Five pieces of social armor with lvl 49 green mods and no augs - 2100 main stat, 2050 end, 1950 exp)

It's probably been mentioned, but this is the first time that the European region gets a good maintenance time. 1AM through 7AM? Yes, please Just wanted to say, thank you, BioWare.

Some nice plays in there. Would've been more impressive if half the people you went around slaughtering had more than 15k hp though

There will be no cap on Warzone commendations, ranked or otherwise. This has been confirmed, search the DevTracker.

On The Progenitor last afternoon/night was a slaughterhouse. Glorious, messy, stinking slaughterhouse.

Silly question, but had you ticked to search for groups already in progress? We had a similar problem this weekend, though eventually both people were able to enter (for less than the 10 minutes you've been waiting), and this wound up being the issue with both of 'em
