As an assassin I will use 25-26 abilities in every war zone. 3 button rotation with just a few more based on conditions sounds pretty easy, but I wont say you have any thing better to do.

Wall of troll?

Civil War is my least fave WZ. The first side to cap two almost always win's, because it takes too long to cap and healers or a healer with a tank can stall long enough for the dps to get there. In theory Voidstar should have the same problem, but for some reason people get distracted more easily in that one and it's easier to ninja a cap.

It's because dev's are stupid. Every mmo rpg dev team should have the knowledge of all the information posted on the message boards of every major rpg mmo in the past five years as well as realizing the mistakes of all those game developers, but they continue to make the same game and mistakes for the most part. The other sad thing is that we keep buying the games with a desperate hope that some one has finally done it, but ... we keep waiting. Some people signed up for three month and six month subscriptions. I'd say once the three month subs are gone BW will be lucky to break 25% of the original 1.9 million players (not just subbed for 6 months) they had at launch. If GW2 launches before June this game will take another hit. There are so many bugs in raids as well that much of the raiding community is turned off as well. They spent so much time and money on cut scene's and voice acting, but they didn't take the time to get the more important things right. This game had a good launch as did Rift, but in it's current state we all would have been better off waiting until April to start playing the game. <---- Waiting for GW2; at least it looks like a game changer. For those that stay enjoy. T00dles

Game is still in beta ><

This is not the pvp rpg mmo you are looking for. GW2 is right around the corner.

Sounds like a trooper/bh or sorc/coun doesn't want any other class to have a viable spec in pvp. There is nothing amazing about shadow/assassins, but good players playing them in good gear challenge the two omni class's which confuse them cuz they don't feel so l33t any more. The best thing tank spec has over stealth spec is the ability to get out of a root with out using your cc breaker and the "get over here" ability. Stealth dps doesn't have a second way out of a root and is squishy. Tank spec dps doesn't have burst, but they can sustain it longer because they are still alive.

Resolve is great for ranged class's, but bite's for melee class's. Root's and snare's hurt melee class's a lot more than ranged class's. If a melee is rooted they can still do some thing in theory, but in reality they can't reach their target so not really. All bounce's and push's affect melee more as well for the same reason. The blinding grenades do not affect resolve because if you are attacked they break, but it still puts every one out of action for several seconds allowing your opponent to get range on melee's and heal them selves. 80% of all republic force's in PvP is trooper and counselor; both ranged and both heal. Both can dps, one has a lot of CC and the other is so simple to play that a gerbil could play it; rarely needing more than one button. Yeah, yeah you can interrupt, but then you get bounced and they heal and 4 seconds go by and it's pew, pew, pew again. I'm not saying there are no other powerful class/build combinations or that competent players can't do well with what they have, but I don't find the game balanced for pvp atm, but I will concede that it could be worse. I do well enough in WZ's (7+ medals and most often near or at the top of the chart) and have killed every class and been killed by ever class, but some class's have clear advantages over others. It's been tempting to roll a BH, or Trooper just to see how easy it would be to press one button 90% of time, but I hate EZ mode class's and it seems boring although effective. A sage/counselor would be more to my liking and seem to be the best over all class in the game for pvp. Dps, heals, cc & not as squishy as they should be due to the bubble. Yeah, yeah the bubble is only one critical hit, but it still helps. I could be one to say pvp is balanced because I do well enough in them, but I wont stick my head in sand just because of that. I have to work my azz off for kills while other's can stand there and spam one button. Pew, pew, pew ... I know, I know ... just roll the FoTM face roll class if you want to be more competitive or perform better in PvP right? That is practical advice if winning is #1 and you don't care what class/build you play. In theory no one should even put in a place where they have to decide to play what they want/like or to play the ezmode face roll class, but that is not the reality. I bet the majority of players that believe the class's are balanced for PvP have a ranged class for their main. Not every one, but the majority.

I do well enough in WZ's with out using my mouse, but then again I've used only my key board for all rpg mmo's I've ever played. I hate using the mouse because there are so few keys on it and I have about 30 key binds that I need access to. It's possible I could buy a Naga, but do they even make those for lefties? Quite simply all mmo rpg game's should have your toon turn faster with the key board keys to take the advantage away of using a mouse to turn. If noting else it would get rid of the elitist attitude. I can still circle strafe with the keyboard it just isn't in quite as tight a circle is all. On occasion I"ll get juked due to my use of the keyboard, but it's very rare.

Sorc/Sage has every thing for PvP, dps, heals, CC & bubble. Trooper/Bounty Hunter one button spam fest is embarrassingly simple, but I realize game companies want to have an op class that even a gerbil could play so the newb mass's will think they are l33t and keep paying subs. I'm not saying other class's don't have options that are not good; especially if well geared and played by competent players, but when 80% of the republic side is playing just two class's it's easy to figure there is a reason for it.

LMAO ... but true.

I'd like to report an error. I accidentally received a Battle Master token in my Battle Master bag which usually contains 15 Champions tokens.

I wouldn't wait for good pvp in this game or any rpg mmo. You can always come back if/when they actually do some thing, but I wouldn't hold your breath. This is a PvE game with PvP tacked on. Wanting it to be more is understandable, but I wouldn't waste time expecting it. GW2 is coming for pvp

So you don't want to work hard for your gear? I believe you. You want to face roll pugs, newbs and people with worse gear to make your self feel good. Well I got news for you. Those pug newbs with worse gear have been working harder for their gear so far and now that you got news that you may actually have to face a more equal challenge you can't handle it?
