I got stuck once on voidstar, on the first door. The door went up, i was stuck where the door was. Unfortunately i was on the side where there were no reds, so i wasn't killed. So no choice really. I did wonder if my team mates could see what I had typed and wondered if they would think i was a scally. This is the only time Ive had to use it on a war zone.

I see this situation constantly in WZ's Your team is battling to take a cap point, you can see enemy reinforcements coming in. if i am in this situation, i usually set off to try and head them off. If im outnumbered, chances are your going to die anyway, 2 V 1, if you are lucky. My goal is to buy time to keep the incoming reinforcements occupied at least to give my team time enough to get the cap. My question is this: In this situation what is usually best. 1. Try to score as much damage as possible before dying to make it easier for your team to burn down the incoming once they are past you. 2. Try to delay and harass them with CC, AOE, roots and snares, trying to lure them away from the cap point. I generally try number two, if they aren't taking the bait, then ill head off right into the middle of them to force them to engage me. I'm just interested to hear other people's / classes takes on this. I'm constantly trying to refine my tactics and learn from my mistakes so any positive criticism is welcome.

I'm loving playing a dirty fighting (lethality for imps) scoundrel. Dot them up, kick them in the wedding tackle, back blast, blaster whip, when they recover from kick in the nadz, cloak up, wait for the dots to burn them some more, then kick in the nuts (again) or flash-bang and repeat. I'm very mobile and can drop into any cover and still use the dots from range as well as other abilities to get some damage from the safety of cover. If i have to help the team out with heals, i can also do that to some degree. I find i can even kill fotm marauders most of the time.

Hi Everyone, I'm recently back in game, I was here from the start when illum (not sure how its really spelt) was still available. I'm liking the game again after a while out, but I'm still missing any type of world pvp. I haven't yet checked out the areas in Tatt. I was wondering if there were any plans afoot to redo some sort of meaningful world PVP? I'm hoping long term for something along the lines of the world V world stuff available in GW2. I'm really wanting this game to win, but i fear that longevity will be limited unless something is done to address this. I am a pvp er, i can only live for so long on the same WZ's after I've done the story. Oh, btw ive got 2 50's and a stack of other alts im working through from 1-49. More as a side note really, i usually go for ranged characters, but the marauder / sentinel is the easiest class to play right now. Admittedly still in the 1-49 bracket, but on this class i fear no one. My gunslinger is the most fun to play though.

I may have interpreted your post wrong, but it seems to be like you are just going for open world pvp? Haven't you tried going into war zones? That's where you get the comms from, also doing PVP dailies from the combat training section on the station.

Its getting really boring listening to the squealers about this issue. I hate the quitters as well, but then the game client crashes to desktop several times a night. Before you start squawking, i have an excellent rig, dont have any issues with other games. The game client inst stable yet, especially on ati cards. If im going to get a debuff, then i wont even bother with wz's again. if i log straight back in, i cant get back into the same wz, i have to start again. BW maybe should keep the slot open and reconnect you to the wz when back in.

I have to say "cod head" is my fave. I think someone has already said it but this line always makes me smile: ""My friend is going to get you!"! He sort of reminds of the Tommy Cooper version of a Jedi - "spoon - lightsaber, lightsaber - spoon; just like that"

Warzones alone wont keep the PVP masses interested forever. What we need is a mechanic where we can claim territory for resources. Not just the pointless numbers game that illum was. We need something tangible in game to fight over. make us fight over the resources and put the logistics in place that need to be protected, fought over as well. The problem is with the current crafting system that looks like it came from inside a Christmas cracker, i cant see this happening.

For gods sake Bioware, merge the servers. My server is now a ghost town. I have two level 50's and no inclination to play because its really no fun to sit for ages in a wz queue. I pay my hard earned money to play this game for fun, not to sit in a Q. You need to bite the bullet and do this or you will lose the fan base. 25% less subs is just the tip of the iceberg. My guild has over 100 members, im the only one that plays now. if you merge the servers, the people that are bored becasue of no population will start to filter back.

I have a lethality operative, as i love the run and gun style as opposed to creeping about or the healing style. Corrosive dart is always my opener from range, as it starts to burn my opponent down while im hitting them with other stuff. Just seeing those ticks hit is very amusing, for me anyway.

Why does everyone think of a Jugg as a tank? has it ever occurred to you that the Jugg has two DPS trees? Next time you fight a jugg, look at which lightsaber form they are using, that should give you a general idea, before saying things like "this is just unacceptable" and trying to get a class nerfed that has slapped you in pvp without you knowing the full picture. Posts like this are what give pvp'ers a bad name with all the whinging.

So what? Dots tend to use up much higher resources. Aoe specced toons will get more kills than normal, but think would generally get less single point direct DPS but again will use up more resources. It will generally even out across them all.

Ive got chars on both with both factions, never any issues on either waiting for wz Q's or getting huttball all the time. Ive never been unable to complete any PVE quests on either. Tomb has more on generally than LoL

Which game exactly have you been playing?

Pretty good thread, I have to say, as I currently have a L46 GS and just started an OP. Even sub 50 my GS gets primaried. If i pick my fights well enough and get good support from my team mates i can rule the field. But I can get much more from my operative as im not totally dependent on my team mates not being numpties and leaving me without support (which happens a lot). I have to agree, the Sniper / GS is the hardest class to pvp. I prefer the running and gunning style of play, so Ive put some of the dirty fighting (IA Lethality) tree into its spec. Probably going to re spec at 50 to fully dirty fighting to get that all important mobility. Its still early days yet, so not fully decided on my operative, but probably going to put a bit into the lethality tree and the concealment tree. Like i said, i enjoy running and gunning, so would like the option of being able to do this to try and cover me a bit for when my opener is finished. So de-cloak, CC, dot, back stab, shiv, power shot... RUN AWAY. See how that goes, of course the dot will at some point negate the CC but i should be able to get my opener in before it does its first tick. See how we go, all part of the fun experimenting with it all. :-) Got to say im loving the operative right now.

PVP in SWTOR is nothing to do with ranks or skill. Its about your gear, how much time you've been able to plough into the game and if you were able to exploit ilum at the start (and still get away with it).

So this is another thread where the sorcs / sages try to get another class nerfed so they can rule even more. Its just like wow with all the mages crying that they dont get to win all the time.

Nemro the hutt: "An honest bounty hunter? Whats next; a funny jedi?"

Uthar wyn was always full, now irts dead. 30, 40 mins waiting for a below 50 wz Q. Market dead, barely 30 peeps in the stations. Im really annoyedthat that i have to re roll on another server. Its so obvious people are leaving in droves.You may not see it on the higher population servers, but it is happening, of that there is no doubt. Why are people leaving? Its because the game is no fun when you get to 50. The story line you can burn through too quickly. When you get to 50, its no fun getting pwned for ages to try and get geared. So why pay to play a game that isnt fun? Before someone crys at me, i already have geared 50's. As a geared 50, its no fun to faceroll peeps constantly in pvp. I want a game that is about skill, not about how many wz's ive played. I want this game to win, but i really cant see it right now. I hope BW prove me wrong and make this game fun, but i hope they do it before its too late.

For certain some things need addressing. I know it will take time and i know it will happen. I can wait. I think a lot of the whinging comes from a certain expectation that has come from a game that has been in development for so long and has had so many resources thrown at it already.

Ive not done any QQ iing, but Ive got a lengthy post prepared to generally moan about certain things, im trying to be constructive in my post, but i haven't posted it yet. In fact i may not post it. To try and answer your question, for me personally to post something that is technically a complaint is because i care about this game. My personal gripe was noting the low server population now and the reasons why i think this is happening. But as i said earlier ive tried to be constructive in what Ive wrote. Millions wouldn't be so. In fact it annoys me when i see a totally destructive post. I think a lot of the QQ ing is probably due to people caring but not caring or even bothering to try and put a constructive slant on thier arguments. Whining is easy, its much harder to contribute instead of destroying.

What a numpty post! I recently hit 50, yes its hard, yes i die a lot more. What i also did was I went back to the drawing board and totally re thought my tactics. I now have to fight more as a unit with my team mates. Straying away from the pack is pretty much suicide. Got enough commendations now for a few bags of goodies, so things getting better. Telling people not to play together in an MMO is like telling football not to kick the ball!

I totally disagree. Its good tactics. It also forces you to work as a team, as in focus fire to kill off the peeps dotting you so you can cap.
