  1. This MMO caters to weekend warriors and casuals. Look at the responses in this thread if you think differently. Wait for the expansion to come out, if it's not your cup of tea leave. I just unsubbed this week due to lack of things to do, two characters, full rakata and full battlemaster. Now for all of you to tell me go outside, go for a walk, kiss a girl and any other "you have no life go enjoy life" insult you'd like to throw go for it, but I have a great life. This game is easymode and that's about all you can say about it. Quick shot to max level - yup free pvp gear wether you win or lose - yup instances - normal - run it once and never again - hard gear check of easy - nightmare gearcheck of hard - all easy Very little endgame content and with the quick shot to 50 it leaves most players standing around the fleet all day. If you enjoy the game I'm happy for you, I myself am extremely disappointed with it as I've been waiting for it to release for sometime now and what we got was just not up to expectations.

    I unsubbed this week too. Sick of logging in getting three wins, then heading over to do the ilum 500 for 25-30 mins then logging off.
  3. This dude nailed it. Too easy of a game to be honest. Where is the challenge? All of the raids have simplistic boss mechanics and the hardmodes are just a gear/dps check. PVP is a grind that rewards you for participating, you don't even need skill if you have enough man hours to get the same exact rewards as the players who take pride in their gear. For me the 1.2 patch is the killer. I modded my BM gear so that I could hit optimal stats, didn't keep the old mods, and now i find out i can't trade my modded BM gear for WH gear? So I need to regrind BM stuff? No thanks. I think that this game can/will be great, but right now it's just not the right game for me.
  4. I played Final Fantasy 11 for 7 years took a break and picked this up. I was excited, Star Wars in an MMO format! I started with early release, picked a Marauder and leveled to 50. I really enjoyed the leveling, it seemed especially quick coming from a game like FFXI where you really had to grind levels. Got to endgame, did a few raids got full columni in the course of a week. Started pvp'ing got full battlemaster in about a month and a half. I haven't played the game now in three days because I feel like there is nothing to do. The gear seems pointless because there really doesn't seem to be anything to aspire to. I know the game is in it's infancy but I am having a hard time playing, I'm used to time syncs, I'm used to relic weapons, I'm used to logging long hours for rare rewards. The game is so cookie cutter right now I can't really stand it. Everyone running around in the same gear, everyone logging in doing their pvp dailies and logging out. With all the things wrong with ilum, at least on a tuesday when the weekly refreshed you could head there and count on a pretty good battle, even if it was a wall hump, push, wall hump type scenario. Now it's the Ilum 500. Everyone doing laps picking up armaments. I more than likely won't be playing again until 1.2 comes out. Then I'll play another week, fly through their easy mode content and then be done for a while again. I even went so far as subbing a WoW account last night because I was just that bored. I'm a level 9 hunter and it's been pretty fun. The worlds already seem to have more life to them than the huge barren desolate planets in ToR.
  5. The this post contradicts your signature about useless posts.
  6. Thank you, I'm going to look for that today. As far as gear dependencies, I would think someone in mostly BM should be able to put up better numbers than I do. I also was wondering what the most popular stim/adrenal combo is for someone who isn't biochem main.
  7. I'm bad, I'll admit it. I can honestly say at 50 with battlemaster gear I have a hard time clearing 200k damage. Yes that's right 200k damage. I was playing annihilation for a while and noticed I stayed alive a lot longer than I did playing rage. I got bored and switched over to rage yesterday and am still doing around the same damage. I think most of it comes from never using keybinds. A lot of erroneous clicking on the screen, I decided tonight I'm going to try to set up some keybinds to stop the erroneous clicking. Other than that I don't know why I am just plain bad at the class. Main - BM off - BM head - champ body - BM hands - champ legs - BM feet - champ ear/implants - BM Green matrix cube champ relic I queue mostly solo,. Games where I can get a healer to follow me around I can clear 300-350k. Prolonged warzones like voidstar I can hit a good 200-250, but I've never even come close to sniffing a 400 or even 500k game. A fellow marauder in my guild has been taking mods out of champ armor and putting it in BM armor until she got duplicates of BM stuff so she could take mods out of BM armor and replace them accordingly. Any help or thoughts on how I could maximize my dps would be much appreciated.
  8. I wish I was on your server to troll you.

  10. This reasoning made my head explode. Please stop posting on behalf of other marauders.
  11. Nothing wrong with what this guy said, but this is an exact example of how this game caters to the weekend warriors.
  12. I see this thread and I can't help myself but to laugh at most of the people in it. On one side you have the casual weekend warrior. This guy logs in and plays maybe five to ten hours a week. Enters warzones in his orange gear and gets his facerolled. Doesn't have the sense to buy one champ bag and then stack 1000/1000 coms before he hits 50 so he can at least level right into some centurion gear. Whine, complain, threaten to leave because warzones are unfair. This game has been out since December 20th, if you don't have champ gear by now then having it handed to you for free is going to do nothing but make you look like the rest of us who completed our dailies and got our gear. I can only imagine once the playing field is "leveled" and you still get curbstomped what your next complaint will be. I hit 50 the day the warzones were broken out into the two brackets. This means I didn't get the time to run around and kill lvl 14's who had their stats scaled up to my level like a lot of people did. Every warzone the floor was mopped with my face. Was I mad? Yes. Did I quit? No. You know what I did? I did some research, I formulated strategies, I played smart. I actually improved my skills by going against better players. That's what competition is about. Sharpening your skills and becoming better at what you are doing. I pvp'd enough that I learned how to play my job better, and was rewarded with some gear while I did it. It felt like I was grinding to accomplish something. I was proud of my full champion set because you know what I went from noob to seasoned over the course of time it took me to get it. You guys who don't have champion gear yet will get it handed to you. Sure I'm a little salty that what I put in my time and effort for is just going to be handed out like candy on halloween, but whatever it's not going to make you play better. It just means you're going to be a little less squishy. The second group is the players who feel like this is a downright outrage. I understand where you guys are coming from. A lot of us feel like we earned our gear. Time+effort=earned by a lot of people. I feel the same way, I feel like my time invested in warzones helped me earn my champ gear. What you need to realize, like I've said twice now already, this is going to do nothing but make them a little less squishy. The players who have been in warzones and put in their time honing their skills will still rip these noobs apart. Not a huge deal. Most of us who have been champs and are now battle masters working up to war heros will be in the ranked warzones anyways. I'm sure the weekend warriors will hang out unranked, so give them whatever gear they want, hell give them a bannana for a lightsaber who really cares. Lastly, ( I know this is going on forever, TLDR for most people ) is the state of the game it's self. BW needs to really take a look at the game they are putting out and decide who they are trying to cater to. A lot of your "hardcore" players have left. They progressed through the levels in mere weeks, hit endgame, did your broken instances and decided to call it. While most of the weekend warriors still haven't hit 50 or are just coming into their 50th level most of us have a second maybe even a third 50. I know it's difficult to cater to two different audiences but by not doing so they risk losing one of them. The weekend warrior will leave because people have better gear/items/whatever than them because they don't have the time to put in the hours. The hardcore players will leave because lack of engaging content, lack of progression, lack of epeen items. I'm sorry but most of your hardcore players (I know this term hardcore is lame, but I'm talking the players who put in an additional 5-8 hours into the game after they put that much into their actual job) want a grind, they want a reward for putting their time into the game. They want something that will show the rest of the gaming community that they have no life and are proud of it. Wow had epics, Final Fantasy had Relics, most other mmo's have some kind of a cut above your general equip that kept players engaged. If we keep going at this rate most people are going to skip out and head for greener pastures (see Tera and GW2). I really enjoy this game and I hope it succeeds, but going down the current path that BW is on I honestly don't give this game an entire year before servers merge and game is over. I mean seriously 1.2 patch 1 new op 1 new wz? Really guys? The rest of the stuff they are jamming in, like legacy stuff and custom armor should have been in the game at release. We need a lot more content to keep players here and engaged for the long run, there is only so many alts you can make before you decide it's no fun anymore.
  13. Whatever, my dad could beat up your dad.
