    If it were three solo FPs I'd do it. I do NOT do group FPs and I would uninstall the game before doing PvP. So it doesn't matter if it would take 5 minutes, I will not participate. Forcing people to group and play with strangers to get a subscriber reward is distasteful IMHO.

     

    As far as I see you don't have to win 3 pvp matches - just play them. I guess you can even be semi afk and watch some youtube video while doing it.

    can we get a new expansion?

    5.6 is a huge update?

     

    It only looks like anything in comparison to the rest of the year. 2 PvP maps that are just empty maps, 1 op boss, not an operation but a single boss while the flashpoint will likely be 40 minutes long and have 5 minutes of story.

     

    I don't know how many people would see this as huge. It may even be argued that 5.2 was larger in scope as it had story plus an open world area with multiple missions, a world boss and a operation boss. Still implemented horribly specially with the returning companions but I don't think you can call reskined Alderaan map as a massive contribution to content.

     

    Depends on the point of view. Coming from WoW the statement seems absurd, but compared to 5.4, 5.3, etc in SWTOR it might be considered big.

    There was that recent 'tease' about I believe the phrase was "expansion plans for 2018", in a stream. Someone made a thread about it and was getting all sorts of excited, drawing wild conclusions, but I don't think they'd even dare tease that bit unless they had plans they believed to be fairly solid.

     

    Maybe, maybe not. My cynical side would consider the said "tease" to be just spreading false hopes in order to milk the game until dry. Even if they mean it, I still would be very sceptical about it actually happening - as far as I remember they intended to release a new operation by the end of this year.

    RNG is perfect for SWTOR and I'll explain why.

    You're suggesting that when Bioware rescaled HM FPs to level 70, the didn't buff the enemies as much as the players. Enough that would make a noticeable difference.

     

    This is going to be hard for you to say with any certainly, as HM FPs are more about mechanics and knowing your class than the gear your wearing. It's difficult to make up for a lack of skill without vast overgearing.

     

    I've run a couple dozen HM FPs (as a healer) since 5.0, and while most have gone well, I've run into several where we hit the enrage timer. Battle of Rishii last boss. Kyramla in Blood Hunt. A couple of others. This is all about lack of skill. If I keep everyone alive the entire fight, and they couldn't kill the boss ...

     

    I believe that if you find HM FPs easier in 228 gear than you used to in 216 gear, it is more likely because you personally have become more skilled as a player, rather than Bioware purposefully tuning the HM FPs for a lower tier of gear.

     

    They\ve added enrage to BoR last boss? That's unexpected. Probably the guy that soloed him irritated them.
