Had this happen today, someone joined like 1 minute into the match and we were losing 0-1 the person says "figures I would get put on a losing team in a match that already started" well the dropped and we won 6-1. I myself have never dropped unless my screen started flashing and blinking or a CTD. It amazes me how many people always want to be on the winning end. Grant it it sucks when it's a blow out but lately more and more matches are getting competitive in the 50. Still some blowouts mainly with pre-mades vs pugs. Sounds to me like pvp isn't for the OP and should be doing more pve where the outcome is more predictable with at least 1 person with knowledge of the encounter. Or join pre-mades that can roll through with no trouble.

Unless someone has a different experience than I after todays patch it looks like if you do this the score will count before the death, actually the ball carrier didn't die at all but a non ball carrier will. Maybe I just had a rare instance where it failed also.

Be more specific because my powertech BH gets zero for healing, unless you get it from the non WZ mrdpacs. Assassins get a heal when using one of their stances if you want to call it that.

Had this happen today in voidstar, plant the bomb and interrupt the republic with aoe that has a burning animation and interrupts on every tick, see all of the people on the bomb interrupted, 2 seconds later the bomb is disarmed. Another person during the same match complained about the same issue while the bomb was being planted by repubs, he used a KB to interrupt but the bomb was still planted again 2 seconds after the KB occurred. This wasn't a lag issue either. Then we end up in alderon same groups basically and a repub takes over a turret while still in stealth. Apparently another exploit if you are turned at a certain angle while stealthed.

Does the OPer realize that without those people that do join pug WZ's are what really keep it going? There is a reason there isn't a pre-made only type setup. You will wait alot longer to get 2 pre-made teams then the complaint will be pvp (insert WZ) for pvp is dead. You can't win with this. It's just like removing 50's from WZ's in their own bracket, now that the 50's are gone the 49's are the dominate level. All it did was take away from the pool making wait times longer. With that I pug WZ's all the time and sometimes it just flows with teamwork and other times it's a mess. Constantly reducing the pool will do nothing except extend your wait.

The answer is yes!

This made me lol! What you really would like to do is once you hit 50 is be able to buy BM gear right from the start, just say it! Well if you have the option to turn off xp then all xp should stop including and valor because all it really is xp anyway just pvp xp. Legacy xp should also be turned off.

I feel the pain of the op but I have no sympathy. I was 50 before the exploit but did not go to ilum until the day after on purpose. I have been grinding match after match and have gotten lucky with a few pieces but have had to grind for most. Unfortunately I have a feeling I will get screwed once it is made easier to obtain what some of us worked to get.

So let me get this right, you are being kited because a ranged class doesn't want to stand there and just take damage from you and the only way to attack someone is while facing them? How about that little trick when a marauder is losing they disappear and run and hide until they are recovered? So as ranged I'm supposed to stand there and take a beating while when you're getting beat you disappear? LOL! Honestly who is more foolish the person kiting you running backward who is limiting those melee attacks of yours and ranging to death or you for chasing after them thinking you might win? I run backward kiting you melee fools all the time sometimes with success and other times not. Remember this though sometimes you are just being kited to the rest of my group, LOL!

Still getting wrecked by full BM geared people myself but noticing a drop off the more gear I get, it comes in time and unfortunately I'm still only valor rank 57 ( didn't take advantage of the Ilum debacle ) and can only get champion gear atm.

I play a PT shield tech spec with tanking gear and although not fully champion gear yet my dps is usually the lowest in WZ's, although I get usually more medals than others but that is mostly from running protection. What kills me is all of the abilities that I have that have a Knockback component to them don't knock anyone back or even using inload which is supposed to stun the target for the duration doesn't stun. However it does appear that all the other classes with KB and stun can fully use theirs. As far I know we get the 1 stun that lasts 4 seconds and 1 aoe (carbonite) that lasts 2 seconds. Death from above as an example has KB component but in PvP it doesn't work.

The whole marking of targets isn't even needed. Most likely anything that is cc'd is going to be broken anyway and most of the encounters that have multiple targets as long as more than 1 target isn't beating on your squishies can be taken by anyone. Does it help sometimes? Sure! Is it a hindrance others? Yes! Stop slowing me down because you are compelled to mark every single pull, needed or not.

It is completely bad luck with the rng and the funny thing is other people will have the opposite luck and get the purple item within 5 or less times reverse engineering things. I have done hundreds of greens and not even gotten a blue for items but then again I switch to a different item and BAM! Instant blue schematic.

I have seen this happen only once, it did however seen what happened is 2 people left the WZ really close to the start, 2 more where added to replace them then the original 2 showed back up. Not sure if the the 2 that dropped got CTD or what but that is what happened. Was in an alderon WZ one day and the republic side had 4 people at each station.

Pve raiding can be a challenge up until you know the script and have everyone in the minimum amount of required gear to defeat a mob after that it is just killing that mob faster. With pvp things change, you could have your target almost out of health and all of a sudden someone else comes to their aid, sometimes even more. Now maybe if raid mobs didn't need to be so scripted or have visual or audio indicators to indicate that something is about to happen and it was more random instead of on a timer then pve raiding might be harder. I like doing both but surely pvp is more challenging and frustrating because you aren't always faced with the same situations.

Noticed today during some WZ's that every time I died or was zoned in or ouy of WZ's that the 60 minute stim buff was canceled and had to be reapplied. Is this broke or working as intended?

Unless they changed something you can't have more than 1, once you hit 50 I think you can buy 1 bag, 1 from daily, and 1 from weekly but you can't stockpile them.

The problem is the person that just so happens to have better luck with the rng can be at a much greater advantage much faster than someone who has bad luck with the rng. It would be like if at work everyday a rng was used to pay you 2 times your pay and you hit it all the time or quite frequently and someone else very rarely or never hits it. So just because a rng just so happens to be in your favor more frequently you deserve more? If this was the case the only people that wouldn't care are the people that the rng seems to favor. Who wood work under that condition and not complain? It's also like if at person that does less work than you gets a pay raise because a rng says so.

I think some people are totally missing the point! It isn't about give me my gear now! It's more about the shear randomness and how it favors some people that put in way less effort than others either through getting the same item over and over, or just not getting any at all after putting in alot more time to be totally gimped to a bad rng roll. I have no problem working harder to gain items due to not getting as many commendations as others per match but when a system rewards some people that put in way less effort faster than someone that puts in alot more effort, then the system is broke. Now if the system lets say guaranteed 1 armor piece every 25 bags opened at random that is different than rewarding someone 10 different pieces in 25 bags and another either the same piece or nothing. This seems to be more of the issue than anything.

The solution is take away the rng system and make it pure tokens this way nobody has an advantage just because a rng is lucky for some and unlucky for others. This way everyone has to put in the same effort to obtain said items, kinda like the other dailies for pve gear.

Nope pretty happy so far and willing to see where it goes.

Yup! Had this happen today, didn't happen outside of WZ's that I noticed but then again I didn't do much other than WZ's to notice it any other time.

I got 1 as good as that, the door explodes with no indicator prior to it exploding that there is even a bomb on it. No indicator in the window or audible then 5 seconds after it explodes it warns you about it, fun fun fun!

Happens quite often to me but for some reason it is usually the same time of day when it does.

I agree! Seen this today 350k dps and over 150k healing from an Op. This was at least double of any other class. Pretty sad when you have one almost dead and they then heal to full health with no healer around. And being 2 shotted by them is crazy! I counted the number of them in huttball at the end of the match and it made up half of the 2 teams combined. Seems to be the flavor of the month for pvp along with sorcerers.
