  1. originally we were going to have companions with ds/ls meters just like us. we would be able to sway them one way or the other. then the devs stopped talking about it. and it never got activated. hasn't been one word on that mechanic since shortly before beta ended. which is unfortunate, as that was a really cool thing a lot of us were waiting and pining to test out. would have added another layer of depth to the game that i'm sure quite a few people would have enjoyed.
  2. No thank you. pet battles? really? please. silliest idea ever, and i really really hope they never implement it.

    what? i'm sorry if english is not your native language, but that is very difficult to read. i'm not sure what you're trying to say. are you saying WH groups shouldn't be placed against BM groups? and what does google have to do with anything?
  4. since 1.2 rewards have been calculated based on team performance. you got 15 medals. big deal, did all your team get that many? did they all work objectives? these are taken into account for comm disbursement. hint, if the bar is white next to their portrait you will not be able to pull or push them.
  5. i use it every time i play. it's been a great way to gear up my sorc healer and powertech tank. i've only had one bad group in all that time and half of it was my fault because at the time my powertech was dps and he just wasn't cuttin it so i apologized and left so they could find someone else. now, for a dps groupfinder sucks, it takes around an hour or so to find a group for my mara. then again i wouldn't have any problems finding a group dps or otherwise if i was in a well populated guild, so my queue times on my mara are mostly my fault.
  6. the trauma debuff was put in during beta. this was to bring healing more in line with player health in pvp. as in, healers have to do bigger and better healing in PVE than in PVP, so instead of trying to nerf everything, or come up with some complicated mechanic to give heals different values in pvp and pve, they instead put a flat 20% debuff on healing players who are in combat doing pvp. this is a good thing. i was a beta tester, before trauma it was almost impossible to kill the other team if they had even 2 healers. even with focus firing, ie all 8 players targeting one person. it was not fun at all. at one point commando medics were so OP because of it that often that would be almost if not all of the enemy team makeup. trauma is working as intended and is working fine, believe me.
  7. 1. How do you think your Sorcerer spec is perceived by other classes?' i've played madness and healing specs in pvp and pve. healing we are very desired for both pvp and pve. for pvp it can be extremely difficult to do meaningfull healing against a team of people with half a brain. by that i mean we are targeted so fast and by multiples of the opposite team that combined with our severe lack of defensive capabilities(our shield is good for like maybe one hit from a BM geared player) it can be almost impossible to even do our job. if you have to roll a premade to even be somewhat helpfull as a support spec, then how helpful are you really?? as a dps, madness spec in the 50's bracket, i felt useless. my dps was sustained. currently the best dps in pvp in 50 bracket is burst, if you aren't bursting you aren't helping. in the lower bracket, i feel like sorc madness dps is pretty good actually, somewhere between 49 and 50 madness dps just doesn't cut it, and this reflects with community opinion that if you're a sorc you better be healing or you're not really contributing. 2. How do you perceive your own spec? as someone who has never before liked playing a healer i actually enjoy healing pve on my sorc. pvp i mostly enjoy healing, as i mentioned it can be especially difficult much of the time though if you're playing against a team that actually thinks(which is more often than you would think, and less often than you would believe if you catch my meaning). as well, if even two competant dps are attacking the target you're healing....the cast times and trauma just don't allow you to keep them up even a few percent longer it seems to me. and what then person is the ball carrier or the dps turret defender when you're entire team is at the other end of the map....and that happens a lot, well that just doesn't cut it. everything is your fault and we know why that is....there's no way to even be helpfull against focus fire even when it's only 2 people.
  8. 1. How do you think your Operative spec is perceived by other classes? other classes perceive the healing spec to be pretty decent for pvp. however the dps specs are perceived as annoying but not threatening. 2. How do you perceive your own spec? i like healing for pvp, still kinda leary on healing for pve, but dps for pvp is pretty sad. concealment at least is underwhelming. any other dps class i feel like i'm doing damage, my operative i feel like i'm a wet noodle, my only task that i can complete is to kill people already almost dead. it's like being a scavenger. not something i imagine when i think of "Imperial Agent"
  9. i can't wait till GW2 comes out and they find out how grindy guildwars really is...and then come back to TOR, after yelling on GW2's forums about how grindy it is.
  10. because it's not just about you.....it's about your server community. if i'm able to move my sorc artificer over to my new server when transfers finally get here, it's what i'll be doing, crafting color crystals of all levels. i'll make some okay credits on the low level ones and help out newbies and low level altoholics of my server at the same time.
  11. jedi covenant has WZ pops every three minutes just about.
  12. what is that WH geared healer doing while you're attacking them? certainly not healing their team, which is what's important. some people need to get a huge dose of perspective.
  13. no. you can't. you won't be able to in the foreseeable future.
  14. no you didn't. 90 isn't a couple. don't blame bioware for your afking.
