If you've been raiding for 18 months, trash kills = legacy XP, and there's alot of trash in EV and KP to clear (all level 50 so you wouldn't suffer from diminished XP). So I have no idea how you dipped out on all that legacy XP.. if you've been raiding.
And I got to legacy 50 mainly doing PVP and collecting legacy XP from every warzone at the end. Matter of fact, aside from Tython and Coruscant, I was so overleveled from PVP, that when doing my story and planet quests, I would get single digits for XP and 1 legacy XP, meaning the vast majority of my XP and legacy XP came from PVP and Codex entries (since you can't really outlevel those).
True m8y, i missed that we actually gain legacy XP on PvP, i apologise for that alltough we win legacy way much more slower than in PvE and that is wrong.
Still, my opinion prevail reguarding the other observation.
-
Like i said, that is beyond the point m8. We should not be "forced" to make PvE to be on equal terms.
-
I don't see the problem?
Its not as if they're making you do nightmare operations to get these buffs. Its not much effort to do class quests. This game was a story based mmo first and foremost they want you to experience that content to get the buffs..
It has nothing to do reguarding a story MMO. I do love the class story line and all that and i do applaud BW as usual , thats what they allways were and thats what they will allways be reguarding their games.
However, no MMO should "force" players to make a direction style of play whatever it is reguardless on the effort putted in. Thats an old school philosophy and its rapidly being taken out from MMO's and truth be told it should never been like that from the beginning.
Players should not be in disadvantage to no one because they purely wanna make PvP or PvE. Buffs do affect PvP players in RWZ's and WZ's to a small extent and the number of companions do affect your number of missions u can send at a given time when crafting.
General buffs and crafting has nothing to do with PvP or PvE and it should never be affected/perfected if u only play PvP or PvE.
-
If you only lvl via pvp you will end up overleveling the story quests to get the companion so much you can just go back and one shot every boss of class quest.
If this is too hard work for you.. then idk maybe u shouldnt get companions or legacy buffs associated from doing class quests..
Ure missing the point again m8y, PvP players SHOULD NOT be "forced" into going to make PvE iot be equal in terms of crafting or whatnot and obviously the same applies to PvE players but that wasnt never a problem so.. (PvE players being forced to make PvP)

I'm not understanding what you are saying.. you mean the buffs?
Class quests on alts are barely that much effort and i do majority of the lvling on those with pvp so..
I'm mainly a pvper and been legacy lvl 50 for like.. ages now so idk.
The buffs as well aye but what i was referring was about the number of companions. If you for example dnt give (pardon my language) "crap" reguarding PvE content and are in this game for the sole purpose of PvP u will be in disadvantage reguarding PvErs in number of companions thus making u in disadvantage in terms of crafting since u do have less companions for crafting obviously it will also give u less buffs towards your char.
-
Can some of the Devs care to explain to me/pvpers why we arent able to win legacy on WZ's??
Are we inferior on something in comparison with PvE?
So let me get these straight.
- A PvP player will be in disadvantage reguarding PvErs on the count of companions. If we dnt make our class story line we wnt get them period. So a pvper needs to make PvE either he likes it or not, if he wants to craft or make money by crafting.
- Certain items on the char perks need legacy levels but since we are only pvping and we dnt like to do nothing else, we wnt be able to grab those perks cause we arent winning any legacy, GG.
I would really like to know why pvpers are constantly being forced to play the game the way they dnt want to.
PS: Dnt take me wrong, i have nothing vs PvErs, i myself was a hardcore raider for 18 months on SWTOR and 7 years on WoW but im really tired of Devs telling peeps the line on how u have to play. If a pvper wants to pvp, than dnt put them on disadvantage to others or force to make PvE to have the same perks and obvious, vice-versa.

WZ XP nerfed
in PvP
Well im leveling a shadow lvl 32 now and i do have rank 5 warzone xp boost and the all sources +25% xp boost as well, i do recall that prior to 2.0 i used to get around 24-28k XP at this level on wins and 14-18k on losses, atm the max i got was 21k, in average im getting XP values between 11k-18k wich is totally garbage.
In the same 10-15 mins u make a WZ u do make a quest, usually yellow qs do give you 7-8k but plus the mob kills and bonus qs and not to mention that u do also make between 1-3 qs in the same area you will get way much more than that, so honestly, i have no ideia what BW is trying to do with this.
PvP XP from what ive seen after patch 2.0 is cut in half and it makes no sense whatsoever.

WZ XP nerfed
in PvP
Anyone? -
WZ XP nerfed
in PvP
Is it me or XP on WZ's was nerfed by alot since patch 2.0? Cause im getting like half what i use to prior to this patch.
And yes i do have legacy WZ to max rank and yes im using XP boost.
Does anyone else notice this as well?
-
Oh I'm sorry, forgot we're counting free accounts, where half those are most likely credit farmers.
Even then, 2 million players is a laughable stretch at best with 23 total servers. Do the math, that's roughly 100k players per server, and I know 1/3 of those servers are completely empty. Lol @ quoting "created accounts" and justifying that is the actual number. Not too mention, it says "2 million accounts created" since the launch of F2P...not an actual "current number".
GG again.
U didnt believed him, he gave you proof, u still dnt believe the official report.
Let me tell you something pal, EA/BW is making more money from their F2P's than the subs itself. Every single MMORPG that went F2P with sucess wich was the example of SWTOR, allways double or treble their revenues.
Empty servers??? Where? Asia/Pacific? Pff, they never counted for much tbh. And their problem is going to be fixed SOON. MMO subs are long gone and they will be gone, give it another 1-2 years and ull see what im talking bout.
If you want to believe or not, thats your own problem.
Anyway it smells of trolls around here as usual, im out of the post.

Hi there,
I think we can all agree that looking at your buffs is a rather annoying aspect of optimizing your rotation and getting the best performance. Particular in rather hectic situations like in PvP. So, here is my suggestion:
When an ability/passive/whatever is triggered/procs the corresponding linked ability gets highlighted.
An example would be the Mara talent that makes Force Scream do 10% more damage. This is one of the few things I quite miss from WoW since it gives you the info that a special condition has been met directly on the action bar.
Also, speaking of highlighting abilities on the action bar:
When you apply a DoT/HoT on a target, highlight the ability with a red/green frame and timer like the normal CD's (only works when you have a target).
These two features would make it much more simple to keep track of your stuff on targets and make sure you use an ability without having to constantly look at your (rather small by default) buffs.
Hope this gets some attention from any of the developers
amen brother. /supported

I Hate Pugs. Let My Companion into Operations.
Companions can be used in flashpoints, so why not operations?
I can control my companion and they tank, heal, and dps better than pugs. Please allow companions to be used in operations.
Note: This will be an improvement to the Quality of Life changes (QOL) promised after 2.0
Note2: I am in a full guild, sometimes people can't make it and you need replacements. We don't want to pug and would rather use a companion.
O.o, pretty well though. /support

When do Shadows get Clairvoyant Strike?

wow how stupid are you to say this
it is simple just go into pvp with pvp gear look at the people in pve gear with 10k more hit points and better stats and now they get expertise. The gear is not even balance and for you to say it shows how much you don't know. Expertise is there to balance pvp and pve gear but if you give it to both you lose that balance. Do the math and shut up if you can't understand this simple fact.
1st of all i havent insulted no one directly, it seems the carapace fitted you on my post.
I believe that you also dnt know how to read properlly, therefore you should go back to pre elimentary and read my post again without the rage present and actually read it word by word until you reach the 2nd paragraph where its stating your observations and the why that is happening (the +10k HP).
If you like i can also give you the links of BW posts, where they state what you should do or not, or better yet, if you do prefer, give me your account i can play the game for you as well or properlly config your gear, hows that?
Next time before posting do me a favour, READ posts until the end before making replys and save me the trouble of replying to your nonsense.
Since i have no will at all to reply back to a stoneage person, ill put you on my ignore list.

If your expertise is 1720 you're doing something wrong probably mixing pve and pvp mods on a single piece of gear... (remember your wh/ewh is now PVE gear) big nono for bolster.. and 1850 is quite low also.
Exactly m8y, im afraid plenty of the people complaining bout this issue are all the majority of them those that dnt even read patch notes and the known bug list in our forums.
Im beting that they still have equipped BM, WH or EWH relics, some of them still have their WH/EWH expertise gems on their weapons and some others are mixing their new PVE WH/EWH gear with expertise mods etc or they just have orange items with former WH/EWH mods/enh/armorings and since they dnt give a rats *** to read BW devs postings reguarding this issue, they state what OP is saying, whatever let them talk and whinne, im done with these threads.
Ignorance sometimes is a bless but certanly isnt on an MMO, neither is stupidity for that matter.
There is a problem with augments that BW isnt aware off or was recently putted aware off but thats it.
Bolstering have issues, true, BW knows that and allready acknowledged that and have stated what u must do and not do reguarding the old PvP gear, READ.
So waky waky, its time to rise up 5 levels and when u hit 55, farm new PvP gear. Everyone below lvl 55 with ELITE WAR HERO/WAR HERO is a LOW LEVEL NOW as u were when u were lvl 20ish,30ish,40ish, and u had greens/blues/purples deal with it and shut up.
In the lvl 55 bracket Partisan/Conqueror gear is better than any PvE gear equipped.

I'm in augmented min/maxed EWH and suddenly I feel like I am back in Recruit gear in 55 WZs. I don't mind the new tiers. I don't mind having to re-grind. I know this is an MMO. Hell, I want something to grind out. But I would have hoped that min/maxed and augmented EWH would have counted for something in 2.0 at least for a while. I'm disappointed.
I am HOPING that getting new gear will bring to end the run in and die run in and die run in and die monotony that 55 WZs have become. A guildie asked if I still had my breaker because I was solo guarding a node. Why would I use my breaker? I don't survive any stuns. It's not like I can break a stun and stop the cap. There's no time for that before I am dead.
I love this game and don't mind grinding new gear but TTK is way too short and no fun at all.
1st of all WH/EWH isnt what it was and it isnt providing you with that much boost as it was before. U are now a low level in the bracket of lvl 30-54. Start using your survivability abilities more often.
Before there was a big gap in the metrics when we compared high tiers with low tiers, now a days that gap was shortened and putted PvP in a pretty well balanced state, like u said TTK might have been shortened for you but it was as well shortened to them.
I dnt agree that TTK as been shortened that much tbh.

Healing right now is ABSURDLY over powered. I have seen two or three examples in the hundreds of wz's I have done in the last two weeks where some elite ppl (probably exploiting the augment bug) did a little over 1 million dmg.
I see a healer OP to 1 million heals 10 times a day. It's nothing, going naked on my 50 healer op she can do 500k and is basically invincible. Same with my 50 healer sorc, but not quite as bad.
It's completely unbalanced and approaching the level of RIDICULOUS. The ppl who defend the Devs in 2.0 are not real PVP or have benefited from the new unbalanced changes., period.
If they are exploiting the augment and enhancements bug than its not really the healers that are OP is it ? and since u brought that up, those players should be banned for a period of time since they are exploiting the game.
I also do make PvP every single day and mostly 8-12 hrs per day and i do have DPSers and Healers and the changes made were needed and its now well balanced.
U are entitled to your opinion ofc but i dnt agree at all with it.
PS: The naked bolstering system isnt working anymore. Now, u miss 1 item in 1 slot and u have half of the bolster u should have. U should know that by now since u play every single day and bla bla.

One class produces these numbers:

3.5 million healing combine for Sages.
All 3 doing 1 mil individually
/Discuss
Healing is totally fine as it is now. Prior to patch 2.0 and taking apart sages/sorcerers healing was under par with damage being done now its on par with damage being done. U say 1million heal per character, how bout some players i allready saw making 800k-1m damage on WZ's, my powertech is making all WZ's between 350k-700k and hes lvl 35.
Healers were allways putted apart on this game and finnaly stuff is pretty well balanced. A healer isnt supposed to be killed like they were being killed in pre 2.0
We/They were being and still are nerfed twice in pvp and one in pve. One reguarding bonus damage and bonus healing and twice on the expertise math, either they (BW) would lvl up this 2 formulas or they needed to burst the healing per skill and thats what they did.
I can still kill healers if they are left alone but they will be harder to kill than before. Obviously if there are 2-3 healers
on a WZ with guards, etc, what really do u expect if u just zerg them or as usual just 1 guy goes to the healers?
U have to spread on your DPS on them, the burst damage is too good as well now a days that they will die.
PvP numbers are very well balanced, stop complaining and start learning to use your wits and rotations and interrupts instead of keep whinning about metrics.
U could face roll before on top tier PvP vs a less equipped tier, u cant anymore thank god. People now actually need to know each class theyre facing and act accordingly, not bashing keys and kill anyone.

This pretty much sums up what the problem is:
http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=6167872#post6167872
Doing stupid things like removing mods, switching to green gear, etc. - gives you better stats. This should not happen.
Ok but those are bugs or not well calculated math on their part nevertheless is still true that PvP is pretty well balanced and there is no reason whatsoever to even consider taking out the bolstering system from the game as plenty are requesting in the forums.
Bugs can be solved.
-
I honestly don't know what the problem is. I am grinding partisan gear to replace the EWH stuff I had, and am viable in wz's as far as I can tell. No-one rips me apart in an unerasonable way.
What are you observing, exactly, in 55 wz's that has prompted this attempt at a petition?
I've observed that pve gear gives about 1750 expertise, while a full set of pvp gear will provide you more.
amen m8. Ive been also playing pvp since early access and i find it the most balanced pvp from everything ive seen, since SWTOR release and even other MMO's, taking out perhaps TBC in WoW.

As a subscriber that put a lot of effort into playing the PTS and working out bugs, I would have to say I am extremely disappointed in 2.0. Why you may ask... Is it the bugs? Bolster? GCD skipping on Makeb that was supposedly fixed. Nope none of this.
I was mislead because when I logged onto the PTS. There was this wonderful little terminal. When I walked up to said terminal and clicked it... My character was magically 55. No questing, no boring story, just instantly got to enjoy the game I pay for. I thought to myself, "Wow! This is great! Come 2.0 All I need to do is log in and walk up to this little terminal and BAM! Max level"
AND THEN 2.0
So excited... had missed a few days because of work etc hadn't been able to log in. But then my chance. I log on... so excited to do some lvl 55 pvp like I did on the PTS. I head over to where the terminal was on the PTS and to my horror and disgust it was not there! What a crock! Had I known this was not going to make it to the live server, I am not so sure I would have wasted my 25 dollars.
I really feel like I have been mislead here, lied to... betrayed
Talk about the ole bait and switch. You really got me this time. You wont be so lucky next.O.o i aint even going to comment on this....sigh...
What was the phrase to describe these type of posters? Trolls will be trolls?
-
Nah, stopped playing SWTOR for now. The game is lacking way too many core game mechanics and not enough serious hardcore players around in the community or if they are its allways to make ops from 1900 till 2200 so bleh... ill be back for makeb and see how its going.

Dnt forget the links that someone else allready gave it to to you but since this is your 1st MMO i would also like to suggest going to http://www.noxxic.com and when you feel confortable enough for a bit more advanced explanations on theorycrafting go to http://www.mmo-mechanics.com.
Noxxic is pretty much user friendly guide for talent trees, skill rotations and how to use them, bursts, procs, and stats just read it properlly.
