You must have been a late PvPer I PvP'd a lot up to 50 so I was rank 49 when I hit level 50 and so at rank 58 I have a couple of champion pieces, rest centurion - so I don't mind getting champion bags.

They already explained. If you have the same nbr of doors the winner is randomly picked.

Im not sure who has more total numbers, I still think its imperial with more, but I think the republic win more warzones than imperial - at least the 50s

You want a 2 sec root greater than a 6 sec stun? l2p

Works perfectly. It only really comes into play when you are being focussed by multiple opponents. If you dont have a healer you are dead anyway. If you do and you resolve goes white, you break it and run that Huttball all the way to the finish line.

Reroll onto The Fatman. Still busy there.

Because it would mean the same people are always leaders, maybe they need a vacation now and then.

You mean newbie lowbies would find out how sucky end game PvP is and quit?

Of course not - but it would be nice to call in some 50s when some 50's are in Tat or Voss. Say republic is outnumbered and getting their *** kicked on Ilum. They can run to Tat and rage kill everyone there. But where it gets fun is when a few 50s come from fleet to protect the level 25s - becomes an even battle for a little while. Thats one aspect of fun open world pvp. I recall 2 50s killing me on Voss and other low level planets but you couldnt tell anyone that was actually 50 because no communication channel.

Is not having a single channel that is server wide for the faction. Without it LFG is a pain. Without it Open World PvP is dead. Without it there are hundreds of piddly little guilds. Without it the money sellers cannot make a living (okay thats alright). Without it trolls have no purpose in life.

I dont go there any more - pointless. They dont know how to design fair and exciting open world pvp.

you spam them with missiles from a ledge and complain that they disappear?

You have heavy armor - they do not.

I didn't really enjoy Huttball as an operative. Rerolled marauder and liked it more. Rerolled sorc and like it a lot now. I feel sorry for unbalanced servers that have to play it all the time. Our server is balanced and it comes up maybe 40% of the time.

haha troll lol lol 49 sorc dominates huttball against lowbies 50 sorc - not at all

Kind of easy to defuse though lol

this Ive fallen to my death (haha sorc)

It was one of the things they did well, classes are balanced

Many of the most important issues are being addressed so the PvP forum has less insightful stuff. The last major issue is Ilum and Open World PvP.

It is completely irrelevant now. Pre-last patch healers got no where near the nbr of medals as others. Now only the first 4 count and as a healer I find no problem getting 4. MVP is 1 commendation - its negligible so where they go really do not matter.

I will add 0) Faction communication. First off you need cross server faction communication so you can pull everyone together. As a side note that makes grouping far easier for PvE. 1) Reasons to be in the open world. You need people out in the world, maybe gathering rare resources, grinding PvE towards better gear, you need long term goals for people to be out there. 2) One-on-one PvP You need to have people spread out in different locations so that those looking for one-on-one pvp can find them without finding a zerg. 3) Incentives for one-on-one pvp In addition to team kills you need incentives for 'soloing' a combatant from full health, keep track of that because it is a players biggest bragging rights and deserves the best titles and cosmetic gear. 4) Faction action Perhaps every one or two hours have a specific objective become vulnerable. Allow a faction to zerg the objective but provide the defenders with npcs - Yoda or Darth Sidius (or equiv) to help the outnumbered defenders creating a more balanced faction war. The fewer the defenders, the more powerful the NPC. Of course advantage to the greater numbers but let it be a decent fight allowing an outnumbered faction to gain valor. 5) Not valor Of course you need to create a new system for new rewards. Open world pvp and warzone pvp should not be the same. 6) PvP while leveling Open World PvP while leveling is fun. Create some new quests with high incentive rewards that put the players into the same zone as the other faction. 7) Travel Make travelling between these new 50 zones and fleet quick and easy. There is no reason at all to make travel painful.

Any other ideas?

this....

It works fine. First off never use your breaker until your resolve is full AND BRIGHT WHITE then while it is dropping (only) you are immune. Its not a large window and in general all this is only helpful if you have a healer keeping you up or the people ccing you are not doing a lot of damage.
