pvp in tor? You get lvl 50, then you can farm warzones all day long, its basicly just a big pvp grind and thats about it, pretty much descripe the day of a pvp'er in tor.

i cancled 2 days ago, my free month is soon up.

oh please bioware hire this fellah! he speaks my mind! However Warzones are allready in place, so the pvp we want with risk is only a dream at this point. So fun to die - respawn - fight - die - respawn - fight all day long! while farming the warzones. i might as well watch telelvision while being semi afk. If i lose i get rewarded if i win i get rewarded .... riiiiight.

i did cancle my subscription tbh. Im only still around because i got mates playing and looking for a magic reason to keep playing hopefully it will come in some patch however i doubt that.

i got my Gladiator at V30, worked for me. I was lvl 50 tho.

Because we're playing in a pixel kindergarden! Everything you do is rewarded! no one cares about anything because its worth nothing since its only a matter of time then you will get it. the more time = the more items. Do you ever care if you die in pvp? if you lose or win the 1v1 fight in the world or in warzones ect? - yes maybe the first times. but eventually you have fought so many and since you dont lose anything when you die then you simply dont care. I could watch television and hold W and spam 1, hench getting great rewards and just simply dont give a **** about if my toon die or i jump off a clift or whatever. as i said in the start this is a kindergarden you cant do anything wrong! edit: hell i might even jump off a clift and die to spawn at the same palce, and run on.

My pvp gear have a bit of both. power and crit, some only got one of the stats but hmm... get it all!

i wouldt recommend you lvl to 50 either, stop at 49 and make a new toon you can't beat a mmo, but lvling to 50 in this game sure do feels like it. Its like you compleated the RPG and now you just entered another world where you can either grind instances for better gear to grind more instances, or you can grind warzones to get better gear to grind more warzones. The choice is yours dum... dum ...dum daaaa! the game go's on! or ... do it? i think that sums it up.

no its not, since 1000/1000 marks are cap, so you might as well spend them on something. But yeah if you dony got 1000/1000 then i guess.

damn sounds like i did infact miss the only world pvp place that made sense! and now im never gonna exsperience it since it got "removed" In 2 month world pvp is gonna be a town in china.

Mindfulmike, i can relate so much to what youre saying about pvp like in EQ. My pvp background is somewhat simluar where people fought over farming areas as well as bosses and oh boy was politics a big part of it? - indeed it was. Alliences was formed, Tactical stuff was developed beyound anything you see in nowday mmos, people found the most creative ways of getting a victory because it did matter! so people put effort into it. It was great exciting and thrilling, not to talk about that you valued your life, and did care if you got killed! In todays games (including swtor) it feels like we are put in a kindergarden. Rules pre-set for us, objectives are made for us and we can only do what the devs want us to to do. Lets farm warzones all day long and only get rewards yay! our life dont matter, we die, we spawn, we fight, we die, we spawn, we fight, All day long. I feel like a hamster in a treadmill.

Even tho youre still leveling then i guess you could still refere to the brainless warzones If you know what i mean when i say brainless?

thank you for saying what i was trying to say

I'm really bored in nowdays mmo pvp games, including this one. I was really hoping for some world pvp and reasons to world pvp beside "griding" some rewards and what not oh and lets not forget the "fun". Anyone remember some of the older pvp mmo's? the once where you fought with the adrenalin rushing through you? - because you knew what would happend if you lost the fight, you would lose something! and a death would mean something beside respawning and just rushing into the battle like a brainless lemming! Nowdays pvp in mmo's are like kindergardens where there is only rewards and even tho your a damn idiot, then you still got 7(or whatever number) fighting along side you and helping you with the fight! that are pointless in the first place since its only a grind and dont really mean anything. oh, wait .... raiting! a number .... right, that was not the direction or meaning i was going at. The few older pvp games i know where pvp did matter was games like = Lineage2 - UO - EvE. The reason i mention thease games is because some people might understand what im getting at then. Anyway, i'm just frustrated about the pvp nowdays. Sorry for my english, im not born in either US or England. Back to my mindless lemming rushing griding.

Great idea! i will without doubt support this! Community creations are the best creations!

I am enjoying the game, and they brought a great story and dialogs along, however it feels like they are trying to give a kid candie so he can forget he just bashed hes knee. So many basic things are missing, to name the 2 most commen things would be the reform of groups everytime you get out of an WZ and illum, where there is what so ever no reason to kill anyone, if you do then you work against your self. However even tho there is much bigger problems and flaws then i still like the game for now, im not sure for how long tho, but hopefully a long time i wanna like it for years to come! and hopefully i will.

i started playing as a healer since lvl 10, im now lvl 50 and still play as a healer, and i really enjoy it. Made a new personal record doing 443k healing in a WZ the other day, i rarely see anyone doing 443k dmg however i rarely look at the dmg. Anyway im a healing commando, and i got no trouble with healing in WZ.

Damn, This post is amazing! i agree 100% with op. really well said/written, i could't have written anything close to that, however it is what i think.

seems a bit odd... do i have to run through an empire town?! o.O edit: anyway just did and as i could see the map now, then i alaso see the "normal" way

its well hidden, think ima give up. playing republic

This thread so much proff why there shouldt be a medal for scoring .... Its a team effort, and you get rewarded with winning, damn ego nowdays! i guess the guy who was walking in the right direction deserves the major reward for scoring? and not all the people who CC/heal/protect him. hmmm

Not to mention the cross server pvp! i to think that making brackets wouldt be a good idea either.

However you also pvp to compeate (or most do anyway) that means you need some pvp gear so you wont be killed in secs and for that you need rewards guess you can see where i am going, and dont point towards warzones!

The reason i rolled republic was the pvp indeed. I dont wanna go into huge que times and having a hard time fiding people in world pvp, because my faction was zerging the other faction. Now im the under dog and got low que times.

Sorry if this ruins anything for you. But tatoonie or whatever that desert planet is called (i got there as lvl 25) have both empire and republic there, i fought plenty. It seems to me, that empire is south, and republic is north. i didnt really get any quests to the enemy "side" at this point, but if your want it then you can get the fight going at that planet however, got a few quests on the "next" planet where i was questing while running into empires that did seems to quest as well (killing mobs) so hopefully the next planet (32+) will be chaos!
