Is it wrong to quote Spaceballs on these forums? "She's gone from suck to blow sir"

In B 4 Lock, but this post made me lol

Maybe you can buy medpacs off the GTN with all the phat lewtz you make off of WZ now... Oh Wait! LOL

Those are EXTREMELY bad dps players pre 1.2.

I'll spell it out for your. Recruit Gear = Total garbage, terrible stats, pitiful endurance, decent expertise, but still less than BM Champion Gear (now defunct)- Decent stats, set bonus, terrible expertise compared to BM. BM Gear- Good stats, set bonus, raised expertise by double. War Hero- Total set = about a 1% increase... So.... Recruit gear has terrible stats, but good expertise, Champion gear has decent stats and terrible expertise, BM gear has good stats and awesome expertise.

Don't fix it if it ain't broken. Maybe needed some minor tweaks, but these are over the top. I kept saying pvp would turn into a frag fest with these changes. I'm not even a game developer and I could see this happening.

This is what happens when you go through with changes that aren't properly tested. Very few level 50 PvP'ers on test. I havent' been able to play it yet, but it sounds pretty rough. I'll reserve judgement until I get in myself to play. 91 and 136 creds at level 50 respectively? What are they thinking? I have plenty of other ways to make money and have plenty, but that's an over the top nerf.

I hate to admit this, but I used to have a problem. I complained about using my sniper in PvP, and how ineffective it was. Then this thing happened, and it's a true story. I learned to play..... Now I'm pretty much top 1/2 in killing blows in any given game, you can actually play certain objectives if you now how to time things. If I cover mid with a smart team in huttball, I can jump down, blow my temp buffs, pick up the ball and toss it to someone on the ledge. I can use my leg shot (this is a big one). I can use my entrench. I can use my other defensive abilities. Instead of randomly using flash bang on a ball carrier for example, I save it as a defense mechanism to escape a bad situation. No class has greater burst damage, at least that I can see. We do just fine in PvP as well, I also raid HM's, and I'm obviously not dragging the team down cuz we beat the enrage timers. I must admit, it took me a while to L2P, but now that I know what I'm doing it's quite fun.

I must be missing something. If I use snipe and a big white number pops up over my target, than I have increased alacrity on ambush.

Not really excited at all. Been following the information pretty closely, not impressed. I like the game currently, I hope I still do after this mess is introduced.

I know because the factions meet so much in the open world leveling LOL. I think I say 3-5 pubs leveling to 50. No reason to go to Ilum, no open world PvP.

You want contructive? I have no desire to be able to cast orbital strike with my Inquis or lightning storm with my sniper. Why would my agent be able to cast lightning storm, he's force sensitive now? MmmmKay. By the time you get end line gear you can't even see what your toon looks like, so I'm not overly concerned with unlocking pure sith, chiss, or anything else. It's outrageous expensive to get any of the legacy unlocks that look even remotely interesting. I have creds, but am I going to drop 5 million creds for a neutral GTN that no one uses, 5 million creds for rocket boost with upgrades, maybe 500k for mailbox on ship. The ship droid that sells parts to augment your droid for missions, sell really crappy upgrades for 100k. Bonus to efficiency (quicker missions) and 2% crit? No slicing mod whatsoever. Oh it also cost 1 million creds. I have plenty of creds, but I wouldn't even waste them on this stuff. The only thing that seems awesome about legacy is getting bonus stats for finishing your companion quests. I can't think of anything else about it. The nerfed 3/4 of the classes, and med pacs. We aren't all super leet, so I'll be surprised if we will be able to get through the hard mode content we were already doing with all the healing nerfs. I'm basicallly not going to be able to heal in PvP anymore cuz the destroyed my sorc. That's cool though, I can still go in with my sniper and dps. I just liked healing sometimes. I look forward to the new WZ, I admit that. The new raid zone only has 4 names in it, that's barely a new raid zone tbh. A new FP, who does them? No one on my server. Recruit gear is god awful, you think people get destroyed now with the disparity, recruit gear will do nothing to help this. I'm not quitting the game, believe it or not, I like the game. It's not a threat to quit, I just don't really see much to get excited about. The UI changes will be nice, but damn, those should have been there since the beginning. Color coordinating armor is not going to add to the replay value for me personally, but to each their own I guess.

This is patently false. Everything really "worth" getting cost credits. Mailbox on ship 500k GTN on ship 5 million Ship Droid 1 million (PS the droid upgrade parts are crappy that you buy from it for 100k) millions of credit for rocket booster I guess the buffs for having max faction with companions is good. Quite honestly I don't care if my Inquisitor can cast orbital strike (or my sniper lightning storm) in open world pve, I think that pretty much kills my immersion and I won't do it either way.

Legacy is really terrible tbh, color match? really?

What are you looking forward to that's so awesome?

Dunno, I feel in a game this young I would be excited about a large game update. Rampant nerf's, rampant itemization changes (that flip flopped), a meh legacy system with meh rewards for obscene credits, and changes to PvP rewards (negative ones). One new WZ, cool I guess. One new FP, cool I guess. One 4 boss raid, cool I guess. UI changes, well I mean really this should have been in at launch, pretty shameful it took this long to begin with. Still no way to change between a couple specs without having to go to the guy on the fleet, which would be a feature far more valuable than anything else they are adding imo. What are you excited about with this update, just curious?

Have you looked at the recruit gear? It's total and utter garbage, someone in BM gear will destroy someone wearing it. The gear changes to PvP change nothing tbh. I guess you can get BM gear easier now, but the gap between BM and Champion "wasn't" that significant until they boosted the expertise on Battlemaster which is already better gear. Whole thing seems rather borked to me, but then 1.2 seems pretty borked to me. I like the game the way it is now, drastic and sweeping changes scare me.

I know it may sound lame to some, but I like using series of shots to determine when a buff/bubble wears off. That way I lead in with some damage and know when to hit my big stuff. The end line in MM also helps with this. I know it's going away in 1.2, but I find it quite useful for measuring temp buffs.

It's not that short of a cool down as an FYI.

It's pretty easy, spec dps so you can do sub par dps with no burst. Less healers in WZ, I guess all the other players get what they want? A total frag fest where you spend 50% of your time behind the wall waiting to get into the action. Damn that sounds like fun PvP. I'm switching back to my sniper and shelving the healing sorc personally. My Dark Infusion gets unterupted 50% of the time now, on a 2.5 second cast time it's just laughable.

Per my understanding they will be tradeable in 1.2, however the drop rate will be less.

Yes, someone just goes in and takes it. YOu put in items that you WANT to share with your guild. If you aren't playing with a bunch of jerks, they will most likely put in items that you want as well. It's really an honor system at the end of the day. I play with all friends from other games, so it's just easier to put stuff in to benefit the guild.

I have a 50 sniper, a 50 sorc, and a 29 jugg. I seem to find the 1-49 bracket more fun, heck it was more fun while leveling up my 50's too.

You can put in items or money to share with your guildies. An example might be crafting missions, if everyone puts them in, you take the ones you need others take the ones they need. Old crafting materials you don't use etc. Items you don't need that might be good for someone else. It's a shared bank that anyone in your guild can use.

Not a healer, or plays on a server with horrible players.
