Hi guys, I've quit this game about 4 months after release but decided to give it a try. Obviously there is a lot of new things and I am kind of lost on how to gear myself now. I am a lvl 50 Sith Marauder. My gear is the Champion PvP weapon/armor set, implants, and I have the matrix cube relic and. This used to be pretty good for PvP back then and sufficient for Flashpoints. Now that I've bought the expo and subed, how would I go about regearing myself? Is there some progression like for example new quests>dailies>end game instances? I will be very happy of someone could advise.

This is just an example of the plague of fanboys defending their precious no matter what. See what I did there?

But how does his screenshot prove anything? Such screenshot should be provided by the people who claim they have good performance with so many people on screen.

As far as I can see he didn't claim to have great performance with 200+ people on the screen.

Yup. If I wouldn't know the truth, I'd think that TOR is like 4 years older than Aion.

It pretty much does, Aion performed like this from the start. So when you have the same PC, different games; 1 runs fine while having a higher detail of graphics, the other runs like crap, where is the problem?

For someone who doesn't care you sure as hell are trying hard to convince people here.

Sure, all of the 200 people are in fron of you. No one believes you.

No you won't. Guild versus guild PvP in Aion was no problem. I dare you to claim that SWTOR looks better than Aion.

Doesn't matter if it's an old version of the i7. More demanding games have no problems with them, so why should SWTOR? The games looks like 2007 anyway.

200 in the zone means nothing if you are parked in a corner staring at the wall. Try the PvP quest terminal close before quest reset and check out the massive lag.

Did they even manage to fix something in this patch or is everything still broken or even worse then before?

Fanboy in denial^^

I feel sorry for those people really. The game's visuals do not warrant for such high hardware requirements. I mean Aion is several years ago, looks better and performs muuuuuuuuch better even in mass PvP. This game can pretty much forget about anything larger than 8v8 in warzones.

Well, then go to Ilum where the zerg fest happens and show us a video uf you getting reasonable performance. I've got an I7 @3.2Ghz, OCZ SSD, 12g viper extremes and 2xGTX460 1GB. I consider this a pretty solid rig. Certainly enough to run pretty much every game maxed. Had no issues with Witcher 2, BF3, and several MMOs that look much, much better. When I am outside questing, I get anywhere from 80FPS to 150FPS. Yet, in imperial fleet with 30+ people I am sporting ~15FPS. It's not the PCs, it's the game that runs like crap.
