" It means you lack the skill to take on another player without the huge gear advantage I mentioned before" - Spoken like a true PVE'er...im not sure if youre pretending to be stupid or trolling...or both...either way, If youre on a PVP server then prepared for PVP (PVP on a PVP server ? SAY WHAT ??!!) on said server. You are the classic PVE'er who goes into a PVP area and complains about being killed. Its like when the Gree event came round and PVE'ers (im on the red eclipse PVE server) cried when they got attacked by PVP'ers while (wait for it.........) They were in an free for all pvp area doing the gree orb PVP quest. Their standard response was " It means you lack the skill to take on another player without the huge gear advantage I mentioned before"...oh im sorry Mr PVE...i killed you in a free for all area ? Yes..im a douchebag (pffft). I lost count of how many people supposedly reported me and other PVP'ers for killing them in a PVP area, I didnt receive a warning and neither did my entire PVP guild, the reason why Bioware didnt warn/ban us is because you PVE'ers had no ground to stand on. So please Holotweed, roll on by with you silly little comments and let the big boys handle the proper things. I shall assume you are some sort of fail troll too.

Totally agree, the gear grind was simple. People cried cause of the grind..people joined warzones in PVE gear so what happened ? Recruit gear became free or you chose the credits (and even then some people chose the credits and pvped in PVE gear anyway). Then the recruit gear became the only option (at that point Recruit was of course mk-2 with better stats then the first recruit). My point is, as you guys have no doubt seen in general chat on fleet is people asking what is the best spec for this or that...what is the best class for this or that...Alot of people have no concept of working it out on their own..they want all the information given to them on a plate and the same applies to gear. They want gear given to them because they feel disadvantaged against someone who took the time and effort to grind to get EWH (which has now had expertise removed...thanks bioware). Bolster was broken on the PTS..they fixed it..they bring it to live..its broken again..fine, but just remove it then ? atleast till you fix it, and bolster at 55 regs and rated is stupid and pointless. /Signed

I hit 6-8k on my 48 jugg

As a pvper and part of a pvp guild, me and most of my guild do hate being grouped with people with no or very little pvp gear...but as you have recruit (and even some WH which is actually a great thing) then they should have no reason to leave. Do not feel bad, keep queing..maybe find a group to queue with..but do not feel bad. I mean its not like youre one of the those people wearing tionese gear and doing barely anything except breaking the death record in a wz

This whole idea is based on the idea that every pug would have a microphone..which they dont FYI Also: i can imagine some idiots would probably play music just to get a reaction

I cant believe they havent addressed it sooner...its just so stupid

Just out of curiousity, do you upgrade your companions equipment ?
