The problem isnt really with the SI skill set, rather the fact that force/tech powers ignore armour / def / shield, and so the thing that supposedly balances out the high damage ( low survivability ) doesn't, because everyone is effectively naked against 75% of incoming attacks, so all that matters is HP's and flat dmg mitigation. So SI gets high damage Above average damage reduction Complete DMG mitigation from skill The ability to move out of combat with dash / stealth The ability to self heal / recuperate Not thats anyone reads past second comment, so this will be read by no one

Why are people using default controls? Because they don't care enough to change them.

I choose #5 Make me a Jedi in real life.

I wouldn't expect to get end game gear tokens from running through a level 20 flashpoint, so why do I get pvp tokens from killing lvl 20 players? Proposal! 1-49 bracket gives warzone coms 50 normal gives centurion coms 50 Heroic gives champion coms Let people queue for the tier they want, it wont stop the odd griefer, but if there are no rewards it will stop high level guilds just farming lowbie kills. Also it will do away with the largely hated RNG bag of disappointment. The first response is almost certainly going to be, "its fine how it is, L2P n00b." and my response is, "I thought this game was aimed at the casual market? Barring people from PVP because they don't have 60 hours a week to play is not catering to the casual player." (You didn't get that full centurion set in a Sunday afternoon, don't say it, you fooling no one )

Yeah i assumed the chuck everyone in together was just for the low pop beta, guess not. Seems like kind of a waste making Pvp available to low levels just to drive them away by making it so imbalanced.

Of the common stuff? Boat loads. Keep in mind scavenging / bio-analysis lets you "skin" dead robots / beasts, and there's always plenty of those. Its the rare quality mats from mission skills that you will really need to craft in quantity.

Meh, it will all die down once GW2 or diablo3 or whatever game is the next biggest failure in mmo history ever OMG!!1

Pre-ordering doesn't cost anything, so there's nothing to really lose from it. Ok, some people may have paid extra, but retailers scamming people really isn't developers fault. Maybe folk should have spent less time trolling and more time shopping.

Its nothing BUT favourable. Half the faction size = half the BG queue size = twice the rewards.

You have a time scale, 3 - 5 days. You're not paying attention.

I have nothing but love for wow, but 5 years playing same game was enough.
