Is it just me or does 99% of this thread qq about not having the right tools from bioware and at the same time ignoring the same tools that would fix their problem. Oh need a lowbie instance, while you spam trade head to /who and hand pick your group..... Oh need a tank for a heroic at 50? /who can show you every level 50 online who has a tanking capability. You sound all sound like a guy in a bar surrounded by drunk hot women and instead of just talking to them and scoring, you go home alone angry at the bar for not teleporting the drunk hot women naked into your pants.... now for everyone who just had their mind blown Swtor is the bar drunk hot women are players wanting to group And talking to them is /who... right click... whisper.... want to groupz?

When said player cant find groups others have no trouble finding then yes it is the players fault. BW created an amazing lfg system /who. You control-v your message and whisper all 50 of the specific class or role you need. I always get a yes in the first 5 messages but i could send out 50 in under a minute. When ppl complain about sitting and spamming for 15 minutes instead of taking 10 seconds and just being proactive and doing work the yes it certainly is their fault and not the games they arent running hard modes Ps... im a healing spec healer and i dont need or want dual spec. Embrace your role dont hide behind a crutch

What? If you look at pyrotech and arsenal talents they both have about the same number of pvp centered talents. Also i leveled 10-50 pyrotech and its amazing. Once you get high enough to get the talents to reset rail shot and make it free, your golden. Btw pyrotechs slow is amazing for soloing hard elites/champions while leveling. Permaslow + dots =lul ez mode

I'm in favor of those changes so long as we also get our damaged nerfed. Especially some of the burst... I'll take utility to lose some damage but mercs are already beasts in pvp so buffing with no nerfs would be trouble.

You could try to be a little less obvious when you troll. No mmo is ever finished thats why we pay a sub fee. Swtor is great. Rough around the edges but definitely a great game. (All mmos are rough around the edges at launch)

Boy with that explanation you seem like a god among men in pvp. My only question is are you intentionally making us sound worse than we are. Or are you just forgetting about concussion missle. It stops the getting murdered part in every single scenario.

I don't really see your point. If ranged should lose vs melee in melee range then where is the issue. Mercs get rocked in melee range by melee. Running away is the best option just concussion missle and ****. If you cant get some range on a melee in 8 seconds then your doing something wrong. Then after that we still have a plethora of knockbacks/slows.

The best tree by leaps and bounds for soloing is pyrotech. Bodyguard works for lower levels but by 30 your killing things much slower when compared to dps trees and your companions (even tanking) become increasingly hard to keep alive. The reason pyrotech over arsenal is the mobility. They do very comparable damage but pyrotech with the slow in the second tier of the tree makes it possible to solo any melee mob at level. I have soloed champion mobs with very little trouble and some elites i only finished off via kiting.

Bioware needs good contructive feedback at all times. Not just after their first patch. Also as wow is the best mmo on the market it's good game to compare with swtor so it can improve. As to the OP, pyrotech has a great slow talented in the second tier of the tree. As well as venting heat when stunned ect in that tree.

But all the kids played alliance...

Trolls be trollin. If you want to be take seriously talk about the problem. The rant prior too your actual post just makes you look immature and upset so much its unhealthy. First few weeks of launch. This is very par for the course

Server wide chat used for finding groups :/ have you ever played an mmo before? They always devolve very quickly into global general/troll chat. General chat in each zone works great while you quest because you are with players your level. You can find groups then go to the fleet to run them. Or /who people you need. You can look players up by zone level class its an amazing tool.

I have to start with I'm not entirely sure funner is a word... What i really think the game needs is more companions that evolve with your character. Much like how the sith warrior has a companion that has two distinct personalities depending on their light or dark side affiliation (trying to avoid spoilers). Its just hard to understand why some characters stay with you even when you are the exact opposite of them and make decisons that make them unhappy all the time. For example having vette take on that slave role that sith warriors have the option of forcing her into. It makes more sense for her to eventually give in or come around than constantly being tortured. Or that she would run away first chance she gets instead of staying by your side through torture she hates... i just feel like iose some emersion with companions that dont develop towards your decisons.

My merc rofl stomps inquisitors and eats their bones for breakfast.... sounds like a qq personal problem post

Damage meters become more important the longer games are out. Wow has some crappy dms for a long time that werent accurate for crap and ppl still functioned in raids. At this point a dm isn't needed at all but as the novelty of the game wears off damage meters will be a must

Does anyone know why wow's raids seem pretty polished when they are released. Because they havent made a new raid in years. They go and rehash old mechanics.. old bosses... old skins... old skills.... Side note Bioware was never secretive about what is in the game. They said up front end game wasnt their focus.. they said up front that their would be no combat log or damage meter. If you rushed to end game its your own fault since BW was very clear about what the main focus of the game would be.... story. Which is great. Anyone who thinks BW ruined a good game must not realize that BW designed the game. It is what they advertised and made it. Its not whatever you think it should be.

I'm a 42 pyro merc and also have never had trouble with a boss resisting my dots. I do love the spec but i have two small annoyances. The first being that when you cast power shot you don't know if you proc a free rail shot till your half way through your next attack which can lead to wasting procs. My other small annoyance is that our heat is completely dependent on rng. If i get a bad streak of no rail shot procs then i end up having a very boring rotation with lots of rapid shot fillers.

Why bioware said not till 11am and it could go later (est). Expecting them up earlier is foolish.

lol players can't go a week without paying real world money to augment the game? Sad

Where's the statistics that say they are losing subs because its too easy? lul assumptions based on no facts. Its a 7 year old game. Games dont' last forever of course its loosing subscriptions. Its a miracle it didn't happen sooner.

If you think a global LFG channel would be for looking for groups you never played wow when they had one.

That would be less? Do you understand there are more people on late night during the week than in early morning in the US. i've been on at 0100 US and still had 100ppl per zone and i've been on at 0800 US and found 4 people on per zone. If you expect things to be the same in the game a year from now as it is now you've never played a launch. No reason to be as melodramatic as this thread is right now by expecting the same server downtimes forever.

You can downplay companions but that doesn't change the fact that they far superior to any pet system in any other game. They also serve more purpose because of the story aspect. It hads an entirely new player base to the game which is a huge development. Btw you do get awarded for your performance in warfronts.

I think you don't mean innovative. You mean not an mmo. MMO's are all built in the same fashion because its the besy way to do it. Bioware has done a lot to make the game unique but its an mmo and there is no reason to make extreme inferior changes to placate a few people that dont understand what is successful in mmos
