  1. ME has the best one, about Newton fing up your day lol but I have run across a few good ones in Swtor, I do run close to any group of 2 or more npcs standing close to each other.
  2. I'll go with Sith, it simply looks the best in port and space combat. The Trooper is the easiest to get in and out of, just jump over the railing to leave.
  3. I turn off sprint on my female body type 4s, but everyone else I sprint/ride. Don't get rid of speeders, you can still click on any merchant or mailbox no problem no matter how many people or speeders are around it. I don't see the problem.
  4. Don't you have to be damaged to get a heal? Also, the medals for healing are very spaced out, it's not an efficient way to get medals. I do heal myself as maybe the 2nd or 3rd priority. I run around a lot so as not to be targeted, now, when I get away, do I heal myself or get back into position to heal others, that's a judgement call.
  5. I always head the opposite way in Hypergate, Alderaan or wherever from the rest of my team at the beginning of the match. If I can delay a cap for even half a minute it may help with a win.
  6. To the OP, I just quit Hutball games unless I am on Vent or whatever with other people playing. It does not appeal to me. So, it's not the de facto best PvP environment. My faves are Novare Coast and Alderaan with Voidstar a close 3rd.
  7. Buffing after leaving the spawn is a big deal, but also the biggest thing you can do when you get into a fighting zone, unless a CC or interrupt is necessary (like the flamethrower ********s), then there is little you can do more valuable than adding 5% of whatever your buff does to EVERY friendly there. Boom, 20% or more to your teams damage, crit chance, whatever. Far better than your 1 meager attack, and it's instant.
  8. Takes about 1 minute to get a defensive medal, I am a little less sure about the attacker medal. If I go into a WZ and there is less than maybe 2 minutes of gameplay left I will leave, otherwise I will fly/run to a turret and have some fun.
  9. My knockback on my Sage constantly fails to have any effect on some enemies in PvP. It's super annoying especially as the failure is totally random.
  10. Stuns have a mechanic in PvP. I do not play any stun masters and I've never enjoyed being a post in PvP when one stops my character from acting before I die. It was a design principle they espoused during development that this would not happen, and that we could not be killed so quickly we didn't have a chance to act even without stunning. They obviously failed. It's why I only play under 50 PvP. Now, if you do get focus fired you are toast, but that doesn't happen too often. There is way less stunning. I think one of the biggest problems is the necessary evils of MMO development is that you must continually develop more powerful gear, and more powerful abilities that leads to crazy damage. I played GW2, I leveled 3 characters to 50 in a couple of weeks. The public events give massive exp, repeat on a regular loop, and are simply there to level you to max so you can PvP. GW2 though fell into a trap, they wanted to capture a greater share of the PvE market, while I only played GW1 as a PvE game, they put larger raids and far more powerful gear to be gained from this that ruined PvP to a degree. DAoC had this exact same problem back in the day. GW2 is not the answer for Swtor. I don't want you to play that game, it actually has a thinner storyline than GW1 lol and the mechanics were no better that Swtor's.
  11. We already have female body type 4; don't need anything else.
  12. Haha, I cobbled together an older computer after work today and ran the FP on very low, did all the alt tabbing tricks. At the end, I got 1250 DS points and 936 points with Qyzen lol It must have logged all my runs through. So, DS2, back to the front, hope you guys don't mind getting backstabbed!
  13. Not only that, a slight camera rotation and it's not really an issue. I also don't like them being so close, but that's because when I want to look at my new outfit it can be annoying, mind you, I just dismiss him then. Looting is not an issue, you should get used to panning the camera with your mouse anyway, it's huge in PvP.
  14. Oh this, for sure. I know LotRO doesn't have the same conversation depth, or maybe conversation options at all now that I think of it, but you can go to these reflection pools and redo your epic quests, it's a pretty fun way to re-experience something without releveling a toon, a task which can be daunting enough that you might skip it altogether.
  15. Oh don't pick useable by me, it's a bugged feature. Pick willpower though and you should get what you want, you can also pick a level range, but that useable by me thing does not work. edit, also pick a level range. I think there is probably a level 27 armor mod, but it might be 26 and 28. It's best to put in a level range.
  16. Well, no, it's a test. I want to run through just the class story in one go, like reading a book. So, I am going to pvp to 50, work on my leet skillz and then run through just my class quest. And seriously, it's like 10 dailies to max your coms, it gets a little better at 40 because you can convert coms to ranked coms.
  17. You are safe if there are no NPC guards around and further, it used to be possible to get in there with stealth, or dying your way across it. So, just because he's there doesn't mean it's a hack.
  18. That's what I was afraid of, thanks. I guess I can swap out for diplo, but that's got to be slog.
  19. I am not complaining about gearing so much as I am about the com limit. You bet I hated the BM crap, I have around 6 BM relics from the crap random bags I kept getting. This whole thing wouldn't really be an issue if there was pvp gear available at regular intervals that was the equivalent of blue modded gear you can buy off the GTN or build yourself. Instead, they have gear for level 20 and level 40. In Beta there was a new piece of gear every level, with you replacing all your gear over every 8 level cycle. It was fantastic. I don't know why they changed that, probably because crafters complained or something. Then there would be stuff to spend coms on that was worth it. As it stands now, I can buy RNG packs so I can be as frustrated as I was back in the BM days, but heck, I am not even sure I can buy the crafting packs until I am level 50 either.
  20. So you are suggesting just getting to 2750 and level 50 with multiple characters so I can transfer coms through buying equipment and wasting tons of credits pulling out the mods and transferring them back and forth through the legacy loophole? That sounds efficient.
  21. I crash at the end of Esseles and have tried everything. I need 500 more DS points to equip the DSII relics on my Shadow. Are there at least any dailies that provide a decent 100 or so DS points at the lowly levels that I could farm to try and get those relics equipped in a timely fashion? Been away from the game way too long and forget all the noob quests from Tython to NS. Thanks. Edit, to clarify, I don't want to do my story quests, I have only done to Coruscant on this character. I want to do the story at 50 in one straight go without having to do the side quests and stuff. I only PvP on her.
  22. Don't suppose you could link a screenshot of what's happening could you? I haven't had any similar problems recently despite just picking new crafting abilities with some of my characters.
  23. So you just can't get in at all? Way, way back in Beta I explored a bit of it with my Bounty Hunter I think. I don't remember if I got a datacron or not. You just had to take it slow and die a lot.
  24. Oh good, sorry, I stopped watching when he ate a MS.
  25. Huh? The difference is largely the Warzones are just a time investment. You have to be a complete tool to not get at least 5 medals and 90ish coms from a match. I don't know what's involved in getting Black Hole gear, but surely it's more than drooling on your keyboard. The BH stuff came in way after I hit 50 on my trooper, and when last I played the cap was 9,999 which I still hit all the time and thought was stupid, so this is just worse. If you are not going to let us buy what we want before 50 then don't have a cap so we can buy it at 50. Presumably I cannot do the BH quests before level 50 so it's not really comparable, don't bring PvE nonsense into a PvP thread please.
