In full battlemaster gear if I get focused and can't freecast I'm dead very fast. I usually (by the smart players) get focused and if by 2 or 3 people I'll be dead very fast. I can flip turn stun, whirlwind, root... I can shield and force run but I'll get chased down stunned and killed within a matter of seconds if they do it right. If that happens it makes the difference between me doing 100k damage and killing 10 people or doing 300k damage and killing 50 people.

If you are on a team with a bunch of low levels it's very very easy to hit 300k damage if you let the sorceror free cast. Also, if they are low gear level they just tear through you doing high damage. That's the same for all classes. The trooper or whatever... I've seem them do 450k damage in a warzone. It depends on how long the warzone lasts and if they're allowed to sit there and free blast people without being focused down. If the voidstar lasts full duration (as in they defended full time then you get to attack for full time and you defend as well making it very long).. they can swap to healing and do that much healing easily too. They just have to focus on healing. I can do 300k damage in a long match and if I focus on healing I could very easily do 300k healing. It's not that hard. Operatives still do a ton of damage. The guy I run with does a good 300k damage and beats me in damage one every 2-3 games and I'm nearly full battlemaster gear.

If what took me a day (a full rank near 60) of 45-50 battlegrounds which took me 12 hours is being accomplished by people standing around in an hour or less I think I'm done with this. I was probably top 5 in valor on my server and people are getting rank 60 standing around in an aoefest? Is this game planned to last a while?

turrets giving valor is huge if it happens but if not it doesn't matter... ppl flying into ilum will die immediately. If you own all of Ilum and how can't you with that many ppl on a decent pop server it's like racking up a GOOD warzone valor amount in minutes or less.

I worked so hard for my valor. level 63 before this patch hit. As a republic this is just just horrid. What a crappy slap to the face. You complain about people getting lockboxes oOooOOoo. You can't just level cap the boxes? You just let people get massive amounts of valor in a matter of hours! Where is the balance in that? Elite warlord newb afk guy. great. Do you test this stuff with balanced realms numbers? because none are really. I'm very very very upset and never got this upset with the 'other' mmo I play that I've played for over 7 years.

This is just sad. I worked very hard for my level 60+ valor and they're giving it away. Friend just logged off. Where do they come up with these ideas when every server has 2+ to 1 imperial to republic ratio? -Nish Also, my trinkets are now rakata pve trinkets. I can't link them either.

Can not do ilum as a roaming group of 35 imperials outnumbers the usual 4-5 repubs out there. Thanks for making this impossible they are camping my respawn point too. -Nish

I used two unassembled battlemaster relics to get pve relics? Where's my expertise? I won't use these 2 relics in pve I'd use one and a matrix shard. I've now got junk because of the port over? Please explain how this is ok? -Nish

They have different names and stats. I hope they swap over my old ones to the new ones but they have the same name as pve relics (sounds like pve relics with columni and rakata). If those relics are able to be gotten in the game then I hope I don't lose out with some relics that I won't use. -Nish

Ya, take the enhancements out. I did that with my 5 pairs of champ gloves. All the crit/surge I could get (till I figured it might hit diminishing returns). I'd do the same with excess battlemaster gear or old champ gear. The problem is, I can't find any battlemaster gear that has crit surge on it. Only implants and earpiece. I might have to look elsewhere for enhancements.
