I know this is like, beyond your comprehension of grammar, but that's not the concern here. The concern is that once the new patch comes out, it will promote Empire zerging and thus decrease Republic population. The economy will crash, and looking for groups will take literally days to complete.
You may not have rolled Empire to do "easy zerg mode", but new players certainly will, once they learn of Ilum. I didn't pay to have a crappy economy in SWTOR, it's too representative of real life. I knew I would be out-zergged, but I was shocked by the numbers.
And whether or not they intended it, it IS Bioware's fault. People are able to avoid Project damage by cloaking. They can't do that with Shock. And may I bring up Mortar Volley vs. Death from above? Unload vs. Full Auto? Just a few exaples of maybe/maybe not intended favoritism.
