@OP,
I've played pretty much every MMO that's released since EQ1. I've come to reasonably expect certain basic things be included in my MMOs. I have not, over time, started to relax my standards just because 80% of all MMOs in recent memory screw things up.
In SWTOR, there simply isn't enough end game content. They have gear treadmill issues that need to be sorted out. They seem to have consistently screwed up Illum and their twof action system is a failure. They only have three WZs and they are all mediocre.
Hope that helps clear things up for you.

Being spam CC'd while I have to wait for hazards. Not having the midigation abilities like sorc's or Warriors. No abilities to bypass hazards.
Why would a pro team want a merc or agent on their team?
DPS does not equal object scores.
Without some balance between classes huttball is very broken.
Without those other classes to carry us We are on auto lose.
Um, Mercs should be "Fire-Zee-Missiles!!!" the entire round, focusing down the ball carrier from any vantage point you can reach. They certainly aren't useless... they really F'n hurt if they're left alone.

I'm talking about the people who, at cap, are playing a given MMO for the pvp content. I can't help but feel, after reading these forums and talking to people from various pvp guilds on my server that it's pretty much already a wash for PvP in this game.
My guild, which would be considered a hardcore PVP guild, is just riding out SWTOR until GW2 comes out. We've been looking for the next DAoC in every MMO that comes out... dissapointing.
-
not many people wanted to be LOLGLOWSTICKVADER and actually picked classes that have it easy when fighting sorcs...
Ill give you a hint..
Juggernaut is not on that list.
On a side note, I think its fantastic that you quoted my troll thread in your signature. You're the new head of my fan club.
-
This is really a fantastic and useful thread... probably the best thread I've read on these forums. Thanks for that.
Side question, since you're all here, which spec is actually the fastest for leveling? I'm guessing Vig but I just wondered if anyone had different thoughts. I'm working my way through a Guardian alt atm.
-
So lemme get this straight. I was lvling up. Playing both PvE and PvP. I was doing pretty well in PVP. Def holding my own. Dinged 50 and went into a WZ. SLAM! BLAM! BLAST! POW! DEAD! DEAD! DEAD! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!
So.
I'm just supposed to get crushed for a while until I slowly gear up over a couple hundred games?
Really?
You summed it up pretty nicely. I'm ahead of the gear curve on my main but I still decided to roll a republic alt to enjoy the 10-49 PVP.
-
They will be common soon because I think a lot of people are rolling republic alts due to the sheer boredom of one-sided Illum.

What if you can't heal?
I don't agree with the OP but I thought I'd weigh in here. I believe that the 15% healing is there to counteract part of the 30% trauma debuff so it is beneficial for all classes.
-
Do you know what FOTM means?
You must be a Sage (which by all means is the FOTM) look at all the sub 30s see what they are playing.
Chap maybe over the pond FOTM means something else but not here in the usa
Currently leveling a Guardian alt through PVP only... all I see is groups of baby scoundrels and ops everywhere.

OP is probably just trolling... but in case he isn't:
They'd lose pretty much all of their long-term subscription holders. That would be bad for business.
-
I think everyone should get a participation ribbon. We don't want any feelings to get hurt.

.... full champion gear stats... ~1300
.... full rakata gear stats... ~1600
(that adds up to more then what 10% expertise has to offer)
10% expertise effects three different things... did you factor that in?
-
... except the team with all the expertise? Theyll have LESS health.
But the expertise guys will have damage reduction, damage bonus, and receive a bonus to healing received (effectively canceling out a portion of the Trauma debuff).
-
thnx for the advices guys, the problem is that i opened 10 champ boxes and all i get is centurion
i managed to pick some pve items (armor +boots) from raid so now i have more resistance and the future is bit more promising. still i think they should make a filter so ppl with no gear pvp can join and play together that way it would be more fair fight
The problem isn't with the RNG... the problem is that the three of you didn't assist train the healer down first.
-
No, the moron is the person who doesn't know how good some of the PvE 2 set bonuses are vs 2-3% expertise.

3 WZ's and a PVP planet?
DAOC had ONE high level area to fight in with a few keeps and bridges. 11 YEARS later there are people still playing it. They get a couple of abilities from gaining realm ranks but most of them have had the abilities that they've needed for years and years. They're just playing defeat other players and gain notoriety. Its all about the challenge of trying to beat other human players and building your reputation on the server.
How far have MMOs gone away from that... and why? WoW and every clone that has followed has tried to keep casual players interested by putting them on a treadmill and teaching them that, that's how games should be. Its really ruined PVP completely, or rather, ruined the PVP player base.
-
@OP,
The point of PVP is to PVP... as in having fun killing peoples faces off. Y'know, like we used to do in the old days... up hill both ways in the snow.
Get off of the WoW treadmill.

As we all know the Sourcerer Nerf is comming, the only Question is when?
After the OP Nerf we all know the Sorc is next, what wil be nerfed, what shoud be nerfed?
Or shoudnt it be nerfed? Should we just all play Sorcs?
I bet that a sorc nerf never happens.
-
@OP,
Well thought out post and I think you've worked out a very reasonable solution.
-
-
Can't wait for the next WZ healing nerf. I'm hoping for 60%.
Can't tell if serious...
-
please do the other things that get you medals. Pressing three buttons and targeting your own faction isn't skillful.
You are both clueless and a part of the problem.
Congratulations.
Mercs and Agents Useless in Huttball.

P.S. Its a team game and any class that is focused/harrassed will suffer from reduced effectiveness. Or...
Do you think a healer can focus heal someone else while they are getting beat on? Do you think a sniper can put out sustained DPS while he's getting harrassed?
