Yes you can, but if you are both the same class there is an option you need to select. I'm not on the game atm or I'd be more specific. I believe the option is in the social section.

After three needed nerfs I don't foresee any more.

Eh, as a Fett fan myself, you have to read the books.

Sadly this topic has been overlooked by bio since beta. I'm afraid such a wonderful element will never be implemented. Bounty hunting on SWG was the best thing I ever got to experience gaming. I would bump these particular threads till the end of TOR's existence if I had any glimmer of hope. Also, in agreement to the previous reply, PvE bounties would do wonders. It would at least allow us to play our roll, and not just be an imperial soldier.

Player bounties

After 1.6 I honestly couldn't fathom the idea of anyone complaining about gear. This post made my day.

Vanguard/Powertech is pretty much the only balanced class in PvP at the momment imo. We will never get nerfed again, and we will never recieve a class buff. Our defensive abilities are a joke, and we get killed quick as heck, this is true. However, our on the move burst dps and ranged taunts are great. I was dissapointed with the range nerf, but in the end thought it was good for the game overall. It's also nice knowing that your class is safe from being messed with now, like i touched base on before.

I haven't seen nearly as many powertechs after 1.4.

The lag on this game is interesting. Never had problems with wierd lag on other MMOs. I doubt they will do anything about it though.

Eh, I give the game two months until all gear is pre augmented.

Yeah, reading that 9k post was easily the dumbest thing I've seen for at least four months.

Lol, very cool idea for sure.

potf.

Bill Cosby is a black comedian.

I guess I just don't see your point about facing other players with better gear being easy and boring.

Not quite sure I understand what you are implying, my apologies. As pvp gear gets better stat wise, so does the player's health bar. Again, not sure what pve has to do with my post, but trying to understand yours.

I think what a lot of people are misunderstanding is the stat change. It took me a lot of time to get my wh, and then min max it just like anyone else. Was I surprised when it became so easy to obtain, not even in the slightest. This is how practically any other current MMO on the market works. This is how a game keeps it's player base interested in the grind. However, making the following tier almost identical stat wise is the real let down. I've never seen an MMO do this, just doesn't make much sense. Most of the people who are directing comments towards those disappointed, don't seem to understand MMO basics. The continuous replies saying "gear shouldn't matter, only pure skill", is interesting. Obviously skill plays a role, but "gear gap" has always been one of the main factors of an MMO. It is something that separates an MMO RPG from other games. The opportunity to acquire superior gear over a period of time has always been a satisfying element. Now this game doesn't even have that.

I would love if we could choose. One of the few things I miss about wow. You could choose what game you wanted to play, or get rewarded for randoms.

I agree that one hour is entirely too long. I would just make it fifteen minutes like wow. Also, something that I'm not a big fan of is how you are removed from the game if you get momentarily disconnected. If you get disconnected in wow during a battlefield you are allowed to continue once you are back in.

Shadowfire pre9 bh, played until the first year of the NGE.

I dropped td long ago. It was nice to have before the range nerf though. IMO putting your points towards more aim and stronger flame bursts is the way to go. Td wastes heat, doesn't guarantee a crit, and can be prevented. When I switched over to my current spec from my old td one, I was amazed. My damage output was insanely better. Fat flame bursts, and constant 3k+ punches/5k+ rail shots.

Heaven forbid taking longer than a week to be competitive in pvp on an MMO.

Agreed, Cartel War Hero. I wouldn't even put it past them.

Lol yeah those days were a lot of fun. Some of those matches would literally last for days.

Would be amazing if the days and weather changed. I loved it on swg, added a lot to the game.
