I really don't understand how people can say it's totally fine. I enjoy PvP but there are obviously problems with the bolstering system.
As a level 16 sniper I feel good about my performance on people around level 30ish. Anything above, especially 45+ or, God forbid, the 50s, and I can't do anything to them. Their massive advantages in CC, CC breaks, and sometimes just being impossible to hurt become obvious.
I'm bolstered - cool. I have several times shot entire energy bars worth of attacks at level 50s just to see "absorb" or minor fractions of damage on level 50s as they casual make their way to a touchdown in Hutta Ball.
Fun? Not really. At level 16 in order to really enjoy PvP I need to find people somewhat near my level so that I can compete. If that's the case, why not just toss me in a bracket of people somewhat near my level?
