  1. The tactical Throwing Arm is not applying the Obfuscate debuff as it says in the description. I have the tactical on my Jugg. I logged in my Marauder and placed the debuff on the WZ training dummy and it worked fine. Debuff showed up. But when I used my ability on my Jugg on same dummy, the buff never showed up. The Sunder showed up but not the Obfuscate.
  2. PvP com system would be great again. It would make midbies worth doing again so I could be a little more ready for competition on my alts when hitting 70.
  3. This could easily be implemented. I hope it happens. The current bolster is better then ever. Make the new pvp gear coin system easily attainable for gear to keep PVE players interested. PvP players honestly don’t care that much about others having almost the same level of gear, it is more theory crAfting that makes it more interesting for different roles. Lots like having alts as well to learn other crafts to counter act their plays. As far as augments are concerned, probably need to make those cheaper or make Augments have expertise as well. That way you have a clear separation of church and state and the pve guys can keep their raiding gear without having to complain about gear cost. Make the pvp augments super easy to obtain or craft.
  4. Already unsubscribed. ....... I'll keep an eye out on the forums as I do every day but I'm not paying for 5.0. RNG=fail for pvpers. They had a really great thing going. I just can't fathom why devs would go backwards in progression. I wish they would just do away with all gear for pvp wzs. I have no problems PVE grinding for open world pvp if I want to but no gear in wzs is better than freaking a RNG.

    5.0 is killing PVP

    PVE'ing gets you PVP gear faster...... Fact. Ranked is for players that should be "end game PVP" not "I'm just here to gear". Now I'm forced to play with people who know F'all about pvping who only "que" ranked for gear. Yes I understand there is a Valor requirement but that has not been communicated. 70? maybe/hopefully? Just means my alts suffer now because they will have to grind Valor and CPX with a RNG.... = ALT KILLER. You just lost a lot of cartel/coin spendage on character perks. Ranked is ONLY arenas..... I and many people like me HATE arenas............ HATE... and we hate PVE repetition. Objective based team play is where it is at. Always has been. I would inject here that NOW is the time to make Objective based ranked play (8s). <--------- would be cool as hell. The way it stands now I would have to do ranked just to play regs.... It should be the other way around. (or pve.... I just verped). I am here, like many other PVPers, for story and pvp only. Doing the same battles and computer AI mobs is a horrible repetition sleep fest. RNG is FAIL... utter total complete fail. Especially for the three disciplines for each class. This patch is fail. I'll enjoy while my sub runs out but I alt pvp a lot and the things I mentioned above essentially Micky Mouse PVErs. What is really fail are people thinking they can "jump in" anytime to pvp WITHOUT having two sets of gear. You are kidding youselves. Accuracy is fail in pvp....
  6. Just read more info on the topic. I'm sorry but for the first time in almost a full 5 years to the day I've unsubbed. GL guys. I'll pop back in after 6 months or so to see how it pans out (hopefully for the better) but I'm not gambling with real money in any hopes whatsoever that the DEV team here cares about PVP. I will miss it for sure (current system) but I'm not paying to stick around. 13 days left to play so I'll enjoy it while it lasts on The Cov...
  7. At least someone gets what the hell I am talking about. I know I am probably in a small minority of players who only pvp but still wanted my voice, however tiny, to be heard. The system in place really was the best I've seen around to encourage pvp. Not only for new folks, but for pvp lovers who like to have alts. I guess the game really has run its course and the devs really are out of touch with what the players (see gen chat) want. It is like congressman who retire go to work for EA/BW as developers.
  8. I'm not sticking around to see how easy it is to get gear because there is no PVP gear anymore. Ok so you can buy crafted gear. What fleet level do I have to be to wear it? So now I have to do PVE dailies or craft myself to earn enough come to buy said gear because sure as heck it will be bloody expensive as all crafted top gear has been. No throw in the utterly ridiculous lack of coms earned from PVPing. I am not going to play more matches over a longer period of time because I don't PVE.
  9. Yeah.... sorry for the dissertation but I just want them to know just how serious the situation is. Well, at least for me anyway. 5 years playing a game and staying subbed is a long time. I really can't help think this is similar to what the NGE was that Sony implemented for SWG and folks left in droves. I'm sure they will see a spike in subs as the timing of the new SW film comes out but they more than likely won't last considering they are actually going backwards on MMO development in stead of being innovative.
  10. Sorry BW/EA, I am afraid that if this new gearing system goes live, I will leave the game. Here is the standard (for real) been playing since launch comment. I have been playing since launch, I read through the forums most days of the week and follow closely changes to the game. I dabble in the odd H2 solo just waiting for a WZ to pop but that is about it. I used to do some raiding. I used to do LOADS of dailies for the faction (this got massively boring). The only thrill that has kept me coming back was PVP. I play usually a couple hours at night (family and work dependant) and don't really have much time for anything else. Sometimes I can manage 30mins of play, others 3hrs of play. Either case, all I want to do is PVP despite a deplorable game engine (GTX 970FTW 100+FPS full settings in fleet--------30-40fps in WZs), pretty much 0 open world pvp minus the Gree Event, and obvious class imbalances. Family and work come first and I fit gaming in where I can. The current gearing system is by far the best system I have ever seen in any MMO/game (been playing loads and constant games since early EQ). The amount of time that it currently takes to get coms for gear is perfect. It allows us to focus on the pvp aspect and give us enough coms to gear an alt and try other things and play more aspects (toons) of the game. Bolster, however people think right wrong or indifferent, worked and gave people the opportunity to join in with no expertise gear needed and still be competitive. Where it failed miserably is with Devs/Producers/Managers NOT communicating HOW THE DOG GONE SYSTEM WORKS IN ANY FORM OR FASHION. All you had to do was tell (officially and not rely on players) everyone that PVEs, hey..... wear green mods and implants below this level (insert lvl here) and you will have pretty much MAX bolster minus the main/off hands. So easy to get this gear............. Put it in the help icon. The bolster system took a LONG time for you to clear out and even then it still a little iffy in application but theory it is brilliant. POOR communication skills has caused this failure in PVP attendance among other things. And now, you want to remove Expertise from the game and allow people who basically live online, do dailies and raid and get biz gear for PVP? So, a player who only plays a couple hours a day and does nothing but PVP is to get owned because he or she can't stand raiding and doesn't have hours at a time to commit to rinse and repeat quests? I remember doing the daily cycles. I also remember literally falling asleep at my keyboard towards the end of doing them. And that is when I discovered PVP. Beautiful wonderful PVP. Where the map is the same but the content is always different. No programed mobs, just skill. Yes I went rambling on but I guess this that important to me that you listen. I will not stay in this game any longer if I am forced to do PVE things to get Biz PVP gear. And, I will not allow myself to have to grind 2 or 3 times longer in PVP with a gear disadvantage with a RNG deciding my fate if I don't PVE. I love Star Wars, story, lore, whole concept and yes despite some crazy changes you Devs/Producers have come up with in the past that have almost pushed me away, I have still stayed. You are littery going back to the stone age of MMOs if you implement this change and I refuse to pay or waist my time for this or a RNG.
  11. I play on and off here and there because of work but last few days on Covenant it seems like 2/3+ people playing in WZ are Arsenal? Did I miss a FOTM swap. I've pretty always been a vengeance/vigi guy and always will be but dam. That was a quick FOTM swap.
  12. 308 bad.........I hope this helps. Here is what I did. I am running: Windows 10 No Bitraider client 1. Go to your SWTOR folder where your launcher is located. 2. Look for the SWTOR symbol icon that just says launcher... not launcherdiag or launcherRestartMsg 3. Right click on the icon and select properties 4. Click on the compatibility tab 5. Check on the bottom the Run this program as an administrator (ensuring that is checked) 6. Hit apply 7. Now look up at the small letter swtor folder. Open it and then select the retailclient folder 8. look for the swtor icon and then follow steps 3-6 (again making sure it is selected when you hit apply) 9. Open your task manager and ensure all instances of SWTOR have been closed out. 10. Restart your comp.. click on the launcher.. it should work. did with me. http://imgur.com/2EdaiNt
