i know how much alacrity i need as dps sorc the problem is the dps gear has to much alacrity on it and not enough power

wot the hell possed bioware to mirror sorc/sage dps gear to that of healer gear i mean wot use really is alacrity to a dps sorc/sage sure some channeled skills but nothing major that really requires a very small cast/channel time

lol EC is not the only end game raid. there is also eternity vault and karraga's palace. aboth with 3 diffiiculties. and onto the issue at hand. i have never had any problems with probes so its beyond me why bioware decided to fix something that was not broken to begin with. sure they may have been some issues but if e could role back the patchh that broke it we would take it. they altered somethnig that didnt need it and they break it completely. and so far looks like there wont even be a patch tomorrow to fix it which is a shame because after having to stop story mode at this bug looks like tomorrows hm run wont be happening. put it simply if it working dont fix it. if u need to fix it test it. if u aint testing it. dont deploy it. this is why subs are dropping rapidly. and i have been a big defender of this game since launch and its issues but after 6-7 months u really should have learnt this stuff and hard defend such things which shouldnt really happen after this time.ill continue subbing coz i love the game but your loyal fans and people who really love this game can only take so much of this stuff before they say. its not worth it even for F2P. p.s please bioware by urselfs out of ea before they do to you wot they have done to alot of good companys. RUIN THEM. then dissolve them. since ea brought u quality has been decreasing ME2 ME3 dragon age 2 and now this. i dont blame bioware for this i blame ea for the obviously rushed release date jsut so they could make money earlier before its ready. please please please sort it out asap and learn from your mistakes before u have no subscribers. would hate to see wot excluding the bugs and they mistakes/**** ups is generally a good game dont wanna see it die but more of these kind of things and sadly it will people can only tolerate this stuff so much before they have had enough

why is it sorcs/sages always want more. your class is working fine. played properly there are no force issues, i have sorc and dont have probs although its an alt these days. specced right u can do some nasty damage highest i seen so far from a sorc was like 400-450k damage not that abd for a light armour caster. as for healer other day i saw a sorc healer with 700k+ healing granted the enemy team didnt seem to focus him often but thats pretty impressive considering 1.2 supposedly nerfed sorcs/sages. the cleanse protection idea is a joke everyone would demand it and for it to only be limited to a class that already has a longer TTK than other classes as it is would make them more op. a 2 second big heal is also a joke. wot do u expect to be a aquishly light armour wearer and be unkillable? also having heals that can be interuptted lol are you serious. that would kill pvp and kill healers. n1 would bother then with merc or ops healers. if your having probs with your sorc/sage with wot ever spec i suggest u read up on blogs r google guides of players for those classes that pull incredible numbers im sure there many out there. stop demanding stuff that makes ur class op. going by wot u said if they were to be added wot would be next pyrotechs like me on occassion asking for more burst/sustained damage. wait maye have no cooldown on rail shot so we can be a rail shot spammer like mercs are tracer missle spammers? please if wot your suggesting for your class were to be added (they wont) but should they every class would have people demanding/suggesting how there classes should be given to be more unkillable themselfs. wot bout tanks having 100% damage absorb for 2 minute duration or a sin dps given 3 more stun with short cds. the list would go on and on with demands. as for pvp the only thing i think needs sorting is resolve. it should cover roots and knockbacks when bar is full not just stuns

lvling up via pvp doesnt require gear really. u get lvl 20 set buy the time u even reach lvl 20 if all u do is pvp. then u save comms for he lvl 40 pvp set so that once u get lvl 40 u have that to where then with the FREE recruit gear now u have ur entry lvl 50 pvp gear and no reason not to get it. allowing u to turn all your commendations into ranked ones as soon as u get lvl 40 so when u cap out both ur set to get some bm peices and then the war hero equivilunt or u can transfer ur ranked back into normals so u can instantly get nearly full set of bm gear

i already have 5 lvl 50s. point is when ur lvl 14 u dont really have much chance against lvl 30+s and pvp leveling is fairly slow so more brackets means more competitive pvp as u no its only going to be against other around your lvl and only a few lvls above you

how long must we have to dam wait for more pvp brackets. im sick of going against high levels on my alts. sure u can say u get buffed but that doesnt count for skills or talent points its about dam time more pvp brackets were allowed to create a more competitive pvp for low lvls. im sick of going against full teams of lvl 48 reps or lvl 40+ imps it is redivulas. even rift online new that for competitive intresting pvp for all lvls u need brackets. so my question is bioware how long you going to make us wait or u not even gonna bother catering to lower lvls

ok fair enough bout dispatch but that still doesnt hide the fact that in focus once they have 4 stacks of wot i think is called singularity there force sweep damage is increase by 12.5% per tick stacking 4 times even in full bm gear with 2 bits of war hero gear my PT gets hit for like 4.5-5.6k damage. in mo opinion no classes should be doing that kind of damage or all classes should be. powertech damage sure from really skilled pyrotechs is really high, highest i have seen over a 15 minute huttball was 600k but u also have to bare in mind how often are they being hit, how often do people even bother trying to kill them and how much healing he has on him, if he is always healed and doesnt die he will do more damage. but with that said i saw a healer doo 700k healing in voidstar yesterday, does that mean healers need nerfing again. or is it because he wasnt focus targeted. either way these things need adressing one way or other but off course if ur a pyrotech ur not gonna say they need nerfing if ur a focus guard or rage jugg ofc u wont say u need nerfing to the talents that increase force sweep/smash because its ur class. that being said pt shield is rather useless and never saves me. shorter cd means nothing really as i beleive it doesnt lower inc damage as much as sw. is it also guards/juggs that have an aility to negate 90% damage at a health cost or just mara/sents? and to they guy that said L2P all i have to say is this learning to play doesnt change how much damage u do against a procced skill with a 100% crit talent combining with it to ensure u deal huge damage. skill has nothing to do with that. even the most skilled players can get hit by that. class imbalance has nothing to do with skill. fact is everytime one class gets a nerf another gets a buff and bw dont seem to realise that nerfing 1 class to wot they intended whilst buffing another isnt helping balance only ruining it.

i dont really see wot the fuss is about pyro is sustained damage. but while it maybe high wot needs nerfing first is rage and focus tree. guards/juggs doing 5-6k crits just aint right and is op cos of the procs for smah let alone dispatch crtitting for 4k

dont see the problem here i get 10-11k xp for a win with all 5 warzone xp boosts. at lvl 18 so i can see the fuss besides they arnt gonna make it to easy to lvl in warzones. only thing i disagree with is the removal in 1.2 of many of the low lvl pvp quests that slows it down

sorry but i love the look of bounty hunter war hero set it looks awesome. even the sith warrior and sith inq ones i loe aswell only one i hate is agent so for me /unsigned

well mara's have a couple second stealth button anyway so wots ur proplem??

one thing id say as a full tank spec and tanked geared BM with one bit of war hero gear in that tank spec and in tank stance ALL the time i can if a good game and abit of luck push out 200k damage but mostly i average 100--150k

lol it was tested if u had bothered reading the test server forums. yes queues were long BUT IT HAD been tested

so?? this isnt pve. this is pvp the way things are done are different. and imo its good u need the bm peice to get war hero peice. it makes u not only earn your gear but makes u think very hard before getting bm armour. if u had bm armour before u were most likely settled on a spec. my Powertech tank will have it ruff when dual spec does come. i will need to get combat tch gear aswell as the supercommando's. i have 1 bit war hero suppercommandos now and full bm. but soon as i hit rank 70 i can craft orange war hero armour so could just farm bm gear and stick mods in that also bear in mind that war hero gear was designed for ranked warzones so it probably didnt take as long on pts server to get war hero bits as ranked warzones gave ranked comms. so farming 2 sets of bm that way isnt so bad its only around 11k warzone comms for a set of bm

to actually earn the armour peice and it not being a hand out essentially to those that already had full bm gear pre 1.2, the only problem i have with war hero gear is the cost of it and lengh of time it takes. ie chest peice 1.5k odd warzone comms for the bm peice plus 3.2k rank warzone comms and the bm chest thats nearly if not over 10k warzones commendations just for the chest peice alone when ranked comms are converted and a price of 30 warzone commenations for 10 ranked. but thats a different subject. this aint bout gear its about the use of guard in warzones

right im gonna stop you right there with this qq post. by your logic tanks shouldnt have use off skills in there class which they use. ok so by ur logic healers shouldnt be able to heal in pvp and dpsers shouldnt be able to use some of the skills and operatives/scoundrels ablity to stealth and chain stun people should also not be allowed outside PVE??? thats the impression you are giving off. now as a FULL TANK specced powertech with tanking pvp gear i can tell u now, my abilities are there to soak some of the damage from healers and to lower some of the damage done on healers. just like a healers role is to heal his team or a dpsers role is to kill the other players for the team to help the team win. with a good group i can push 150-185k protection in a warzone why, coz im not the minority of players that play tank able classes with a dps spec throw on tank stance guard for 3 medals then dps. i stay tank stance i am full tank spec (31/8/2) and my role is to take some of the damage for the team. take away the guard and the taunts to lower damage in pvp then there is no reason to be a tank. the impression i get from your post is not that u have a problem with guard but u cant kill a guarded target solo. either your not playing your class effectivly or your groups dont figurre out, best way to kill a healer is to kill a tranking able class to remove any possible guards or better yet. FOCUS TARGET healers. i suggest you spend more time on your own class than qqing bout skills tanks have. how would u like it if people like us tanks decided to post a thread just like thsi to have some off your usefull skils not being usable in pvp??? i bet youd be qqing about that also. lastly if u think guarding healers means unbalanced then u must be new to mmo's this isnt the first time nor will it likely be the last time. guard is a very usefull skill and people often forget it can actually lead to the tank dying quicker seeing as u take 50% of ur guarded targets damage. so please before u make posts like this think logically and deal with the fact a class has a useful tool like that ad just because u dont doesnt mean its causing imbalance. i also wonder if this is more about medals and the fact u picked a class that doesnt get as many medals as a tank coz u cant guard

i no this is off topic abitbut didnt a previous patch post 1.2 say that war hero pvp gear brought with ranked warzone commendations had there prices lowered. now i no for a fact they went. day 1 war hero helm 2.475 ranked commendations plus the battlemaster helm. and today its still the same place. it took me 2 weeks ish just to get that helm coz of pre-mades dominating or perhaps it would have been same either way. but war hero gear is rediculasly long grindfest. wouldnt it have been better to make the crafted oranage moddable set not have a valour requirement and say cost 250k creds for the schematic box and the purple barterable war hero set ranked 70 considering ud need mods to slot onto the crafted set anyway and bm gear mods dont carry over set bonus??

wot a pile of bs. i used to play sorc healer even post 1.2 before i lvled my Powertech tank and enjoyed it more. even after 1.2 i was able to heal hm fps normal and hard mode ops with no issues. recently with my powertech tank doing nightmare mode ev with a sorc healer and operative healer. healing is still fine for any class you just have to adapt to the change and learn how to heal effectivly, randomly mashing heal buttons will always gie u healing problems even before 1.2. now sorcs are actually working as intended as healers and making content pve wise much more interesting. if u cant heal properly its not the class its u. as for the bonus bosses u mention, i bet they were the same bosses some peole in game had problems healing through pre 1.2 anyway. fact is the class isnt broken, mostly like the players playing the class cant adapt to how it is now. any class is playable atm and in fact day of 1.2 release i healed ops and hm fps and other than some initial problems managing force i failed to notice a differance, still being able to pop out 6.5-7.2k heals with the use of relics relentlessness and rakata adrenal and stim so this isnt entirly accurate. as to the 1v1 issue people been talking about. yes u have a harder time if ur 1v1ing vs most classes but thats most likely down to skill vs the skill of the other player and that some people are using mouses that have 6-8+ buttons so they can keybind all there skills to there mouse and have no downtime between skills meaning they click quicker and therefore get more damage down. not to mention most 1v1ers un around in cirles like healess chickens rather than sta static making it harder to hit them. (i have never liked fighting liek that not very manly still looking fror some1 to step up man vs man staying still and seeing who the best player is) b t that wont happen. anway back to my point. some people have pvped for years and n every mmo they have played so there skills are slightly better than most people. and for lightning sorc especially who have more channeled skills than insta casts its harder to 1v1 kill someone but its not impossilbe then again on my server its hard to 1v1 anyone there all scared when there bout to die at hands of one player and u then see 3-5 people instantly jump you to protect the person who cant take a fiar fight ;p

ok so what your saying is people getting dominated by pre-mades and that 1/10 warzones will give u a win that one being the one time ur not facing bs pre-maders should have to spends 2/3 days just to get a daily done while the dam premades effectivly terrorize pvp farming EASY wins out of people who actually CAN pvp without the use of premade. on my server (eu hidden bekks) 2 guilds from rep side own pvp. im a powertech tank in full BM gear and just got war hero purple helm today* these 2 guilds full of people that have 1 been accused and seen hacking and 2 seem to have no lifes because pvp matches most of the time pop up with there premades in and losses become a constant thing when they pvp which is pretty much ALLDAY. so why in cases like that should the loosing team that is not a pre made who work hard and sometimes actually perform better during the match get no reward to there daily because premaders like these have no lifes and are on pretty much al day everyday ruining pvp fun for everyone else just for valour ranking up. for me this change was needed as at least i have a reason to stick around to a no hope warzone. but pvp will slowly die out if premaders dont get there ow queue as manytime now even with todays pvp daily change still instantly leave warzones soon as they see its vs a pre-made. its no fun being dominated by pre-mades who only win coz they use teamspeak or vent or what not and find the loophole to the 4 man only pre made by setting up 2 groups and clicking queue group at same time. why should be be farmed for them to gear or rank up and not get our dailies done aswell??? there are many things hurting pvp in this game atm but the new daily isnt one of them, the problem u listed im sure existed before the change and will always be around coz frankly some people are lazy and will do the bare minimum that isnt a result of this change its jsut who they are max rewards for little effort. i even hope they do this to the weekly and increase how many matches needed for weekly to make it work. im sorry man but i think ur in the minority with this thinking. and fyi when people do more effort they should get rewards but on my server its the otherway around people who premade for as little effort get all the rewards so this complaint for me hasnt got any merit. and proff of wot im saying is today my whole team all solo queuers against at least one premade and 4 randoms were top of the leaderboard the premaders all bottom half of the leaderboard why, cos they did crap but one because of coordination.winning doesnt make u a good pvper, premades dont make u a good pvper. they are ust 2 things that go together because of voice communication.

LOL your saying this post is a troll yours is the bigger troll. and just proves one thing, your one of those people WHO CANT pvp without a pre-made. right with that out they way now for my actual comment. i can see both sides tto this argument but i am with the OP on this subject and here are my reasons firstly pvp is about fun, pvp is not fun for people who prefer to queue solo for either the quicker queue times or simple to meet new people or to have a real challenge. and before u pre-maders go well fighting a pre-made is a challenge IT IS NOT. there is no challenge in pre-made people using teamspeak or ventrillo or whatever to coordinate. its no challenge when that pre-made is fastly better gear and fyi im full BM geared (on my server 7/10 of those better geared peole id wager got there gear from the 1.1 ilum exploit saga) or against people who do nothing but pvp. do people have a right to do pre-mades sure if its in the game they have every right but it is ruining pvp. there is no fun or challenge when pre-mades find for lack of a better word loophole in the system to basically make a 8 man premade with abit of luck by getting 2 groups of 4 people sorted and hitting queue group at the same time. secondly i cant see why you pre-maders have a problem with having ur own queues??? oh wait yes i do, its because you DONT want the challange and u enjoy steam rolling your way to wins almost every match. god forbid the day u got against a better pre-made than you and they were farming the hell out of you. lets see how bad you all would be posting here then with posts just like this. fact is pre-mades should be part of this game but used in away that is fair for both sides of this argument how to do tht, solo queue and premade queue solves all the issues. as for queue times getting longer, well when they introduce cross server pvp theres your problem solved. i bet theres thousands of premade groups out there then. third point is. solo players should be able to enjoy there pvp time aswell. get gear have fun not be face rolled by premades looking for a quick gear up or quicker valour gains by winning more games than there would solo. we also have dailies and weekly pvp quests we want finished too. now i no 8 man premades will be coming but i will say this now, if thats introcduced before pre mades get there own queues. you wil see a LOT of people quitting pvp then u will have your really long queues u think ull get with premade only queues anyway so wot is the problem??? fact is pvp isnt just about all you pre-maders pvp is for everyone solo and groups have every right to pvp. if your to unskilled to accept premades need own queues and you need to face roll pugs to feel like a good player then boy do you need a reality check and need to learn to play. if ur a pre-mader that loves grouping with others to pvp fair play i have no problems with that, just as u shouldnt have a problem facing up against other players with the same opinion and fighting other premades for a challenge so what this really comes down to is simple, pre-maders who disagree with this post, imo are the people who (a) dont have the skill to want to face other premades and enjoy farming pugs/solo queued people or (b) your a pre made who sees the logic in this subject and would rather a tightly contested warzone against like minded pre-mades and actually feel like u achieved a win and not simply face rolled it. pvp wins are better when its a tightly fought match that goes down to the wire. and u can actually have the feeling of deserving to win cos you all worked for it not simply using an advantage to steam roll people. while im sure this post will get flamed who cares. the beuaty of forums is everyone has there opinion just like this is my own opinion so i couldnt care less wot response i get to this cos people have right to there own views just like i have mine

i cant seem to remember wot page my initial comment was on but heres my opinion anyway. firstly, please stop acting like a spoiled child demanding this and demanding that. im sorry you were not happy with 1.2 but such is the life of an mmo. some people love the content some people moan bout lack of it and so on. this game is 6 and a half months old and has alot more content than many new mmo's at this point. why come here asking people if they are gonna quit if they dont get new content when YOU want it. the world of mmo's usually works like this, if you love playing the game you can be patiant for new content and always find ways to keep yourself entertained. for example the other day my guild was doing denova normal for a laugh raid leader tells some new people to the raid not to leap out of the box if there warrior or anyone to move out of the safe green box in the minefeild, wot happen?? guild leader twice force leaped to mobs making us all laugh. that and trying new difficulties of ops and progressing at our own pace not RUSHING content like hardcore raiding guilds means theres plenty of stuff keeping us interested. me, i keep busy when not much to do by setting myself pvp goals. making certain valour rank in that week or aiming to get this rank for that gear and so on theres always something to do if u have the mind to do it and are enjoying playing the game if you are not, demanding new content when u want it and threatening to cancel your subscription is imo pathetic and childish. if your not happy wit the game CANCEL dont ask other people if there gonna quit if they dont get a new patch with alot more new content when u demand it. ragging it out is not gonna make u enjoy game more. and my philosophy is this if ur not enjoying a game, no amount of new content will ever make u happy because once you finish it ull be back at sqaure one again. to answer the titles question tho. NO op i will not unsub if i dont get new content in may, in fact i will actually show my love of this game and my loyalty to it by saying i couldnt care less if i dont get new content until the year 2020 why because im content with wot i have and love playing this beauitul game. why because im patient and enjoying doing wot i want at my own pace. recently just clearing 8 and 16 man nightmare mode ev. this ame if awesome sure it has bugs it has people who cant play pvp without hacks and other annoying stuff but so wot. name one major mmo of the last 10 years that hasnt had these issues or any bugs at all. new content is FREE therefore is never going to be every month. these free content patches are usually nothing more than a little added extra to the players kind of like a thank you for your continued support and bioware or any other mmo developer is ever requireed to deliver free content, they choise to to keep players happy and playing . lotro free content if im not mistake see nowhere near the amount of free content we got in 1.2 and is usally on a 3-4 month bases so quit moaning. if this doesnt sink in or u refuse to accept that demanding this crap wont get you anywhere well all i can say to you OP is dont let the door hit u on the behind once u unsub. i have no sympathy for you tbh. u dont liek it dont play simples

i agree ac spec changing would ruin the game, but dual speccing for the same ac is wot people want. for examle kp only really needs 2 tanks for 2 bosses, jarg and sorno and foreman crusher. it would be nice to have one of those tanks be able to switch to dps for the other bosses without having to spend a fortune to do so and without having to spend 5-10 mintues to have to re slot talents and re assign skills to skill bars each time. also no1 ever mentioned dual spec would be for having a second advance class and bioware have already said they dont intend on allowing that. dual spec is already a confirmed upcoming feature at some point and will only be usable in the AC you chose. for many of us we want dual spec so we dont have to spend fortunes changing specs for pve and pvp or having to switch a spec for raid coz theres too many people for yor role and not enough for the other role.

im sorry but i just dont agree with bioware that expanding the legacy system the patch after the first round of legacy stuff is more important than dual spec. DS was ment ot be in 1.2 then posponed to 1.3 now postponed again. id rather see dual spec than having crap legacy stuff like field respec (which is probably just the respec at a huge cost on fleet) just in the field or more unlockable emotes.

hmm wot happened to 1.2 patch notes and people saying campain/black hole gear dropping in nightmare ev/kp did they cahnge this
