ok i have to be honnest im coming back after a several year break. currently re rolling because i cant remember wth i was remotely doing. So i get my sorc to 18 kit her out with the best gear i can manage (mostly from the mod vendor and a few from the black talon fp) and i decided to get the pvp intro quest done i got when i hit the fleet station. keep in mind im 18 with no clue wth I'm doing, hell im still trying to work out a decent leveling rotation when things require more than a two-three button combo.
So i que up get an arena my team all dps 2 sorc, a marauder, and i think an assassin maybe? think they had a staff. other team not sure but it was 3 dps and a tank one of the dps was a scoundrel. follow my team trying to support don't do very well despite being the last one standing both rounds. first round we got 1 down. second none. i could do nothing. it was very disappointing.
Second que wound up being hutball. that was when i really noticed the problem from the levels of my team i was one of the lowest members there i think there was one other in the teens the rest were 30+ and we got scaled up to 75. and that's the issue. go ahead scale me up to 75 but im only 18. higher level characters have more options, better builds, more abilities. i can't really compete with that. The really frustrating bit. that pvp intro quest that started this? yeah it requires a win. which feels impossible until im max level and geared.
Any way apologies for the long winded complaining just kinda needed to get that out.
