This got a mention on OotiniCast tonight. Also, I said something to @Musco on Twitter a couple days ago.

I would agree with you if it weren't for the fact that their sorc and sage PvP healing builds both go all the way up the healing tree to the AoE heal but don't actually take the heal. (They're not trying for a hybrid build, either...there are 36 points in healing.) That's not something I'd recommend as even a basic build.

Nice idea, but I'd recommend taking out the Noxxic link. Too much incorrect information there.

Looks like they still haven't updated...

Some of those he doesn't play much. But anyone's list who doesn't have him on it for at LEAST sorc DPS is incomplete, IMO. (I know you just edited yours, I mean anyone else's.)

Saney (Sorc DPS) <- reroll for Shadowlands, so not as geared as his sorc on PoT5 yet. Not min-maxed. Xani (Mara) Zani (Sniper) Inaz (Jugg tank) Inax (Sin DPS) Xanie (sage DPS) May'be'xani (PT Tank) Edited to add: He moved his Merc (Xaney) and op healer back today too. (Several of those names have special characters but I'm not going to bother trying to type them, lol.)

How is Xani nowhere on this list? o.O

A guild mate of mine actually compared them to those things you see outside of car dealerships...that flap their arms in the wind.....apparently they're actually called inflatable breezy geezers/sky guys/windy men. We just called them freaking (not the exact word, lol) flappers.

A PvP only guild. And I'm not the only person who has had that experience.... http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=673930

This. This time last year, there were about 15-20 people that I played with on a regular basis. A year later, how many of those still play? Like 4 of us. That's a really strange definition of fine. You've gotta realize that some of the people you're talking about have seen large numbers of their friends leave/had guilds disband entirely because of some of the issues people have raised in this thread. That kind of thing tends to leave a really bitter taste in one's mouth. >.<

+10 internet points for spelling not spelling "Obroan" as "Oberon."

Honestly...who is surprised?

It's a little bit silly that this bug hasn't been fixed yet, IMO.

Eveanyn (Shadowlands) (Screenshot is from my lowbie merc.) 77% PvP achievements. http://i.imgur.com/qw7v2pb.jpg

Nope. I solo queued for a couple of warzones about a week ago on a healer I hadn't touched for months. When I say her gear is absolute garbage, I mean it. I think she maybe had 1-2 pieces of Conq, the rest of it was absolute PvE garbage gear. Warzone 1, 900k+ heals. Warzone 2, 1mil. Would you say I was competitive?

Weren't we told we were going to get a "mathy" post regarding bolster at some point? What happened to that?

You can keep on saying this, but it won't make it true. You'd be better off asking for BW to implement an in game voice feature, as other games have done.

They didn't say they were removing it with a certain patch, they said they would be removing it sometime after that patch. (Unless they made another statement after this one that I missed. This statement implies it will happen sometime after 2.4, but doesn't say when.) "What about PvP post-2.4? What is coming next, you wonder? Well it wouldn’t be a dev post without some teasing! Here are some of the things on the horizon we have in store for PvP. Removing the F2P restriction for entering the Warzones"

I had a Hypergate like that in midbies last week. Super, super even game.....coming down to the last 30s. Scoundrel tries to cap our node, fails, takes off running out of stealth, (guessing Disappearing Act was on cooldown.) I was on my sorc healer, but I take off after the guy with a DPSer, and we throw everything we've got at him with mere seconds to go in the match. I get the killing blow with a Shock with like 1-2 seconds left ...and we win by ONE KILL.

http://www.swtor.com/blog/game-update-2.5-class-changes Cleanses tend to be abilities with rather short cooldowns, and they will no longer be able to remove protected Balance/Madness damage-over-time effects. Some examples of cleansing abilities are Cure, Field Aid, Toxin Scan, Triage, Restoration, and Expunge (formerly known as Purge). Purges tend to have longer cooldowns and can usually only be used on yourself. In addition, purges will continue to remove the protected Madness/Balance damage-over-time effects. Some examples of purging abilities are Evasion, Dodge, Force Shroud, and Resilience. Working as intended.

I just saw a sorc on the fleet named Nyn - that's NOT me, in case anyone cares. (And they're pvping, too.) I should probably make a new sig.

The thing is....this game's PvP community has already shrunk to the point where most of the top players already know who the others are. It wouldn't take long for everyone else PvPing to figure it out, either. I think at this point, the number of "elite" pvp guilds could probably be counted just using fingers and toes, and quite possibly just fingers.

You mean add them *back* into the ranked queues, right? We had them and they took them away.

Ootini's graphs contain some records that are serious outliers and shouldn't really be included (I suspect some of them are the alts of the people that were win trading.)

I, too, would very much like to see this.
