And Taco-Bell loves you. Fire sauce and all...

So I know I could post this in the support section but I wanted to get some theories from the PVPers as that is pretty much all I do. Might be a long post. So I notice something wrong with my computer today as it is an older motherboard like 3ish years old and it looked like my overclock was becoming unstable. So I set everything to default and did a few small things but pretty much left the overclocking alone and left all speed step technology in place with my I7-3930k . Figured I got the ram back up to 2133 and left everything else alone so it wouldn't matter if I was running at 4.0 or 3.2 ghz. Well, in leaving the CPU settings alone I noticed the my FTW motherboard would take the CPU up and down from 3.4 to 3.7 ghz with no overclock and the speedstep technology (through ELEET Software). I get in game and holly crap....... I have never seen in game (playing since launch) toon stutter in PVP. I mean it was bad and very unplayable. I mean honestly I couldn't believe it. Which made me think of something. I guess part of the game graphics is processed through the CPU. Before today today i had all speed step and auto voltage adjusters off as well as sleep state settings in my bios. I would get the occasional toon stutter in any huttball match but that was it.. Pretty much ever. Today with me having all the CPU additional modifiers in place to auto adjust power, all hell broke loose and was unplayable. Until.... I set it all back to steady power. This worked for me. Maybe take a look and let me know if I am crazy. I play same time pretty much every night both euro side and eastern side and never seen anything about how bad it was tonight (due to cpu power saving modifications) So I guess I'm asking specifically any tech savvy pvpers have you experienced this before? Would any of you be willing to try out my theory? The only reason I bring this up is loads of folks are always complaining about toon stutter and most of those folks have no idea even what a BIOS is or how to adjust your CPU. Or the other theory could be there were loads of hackers on tonight........ hacker troll food there hahaha. I tested my connection on speedtest.. 11mb upload and 145dl. clean and smooth, direct connection to router. Let me know what you think.

This ^^. drink less coffee get more sun.

Please post the vid and make a bug report in the bug forum up top

To make this thread official. Sorcs and sages should head to there respective forum to learn new rotations. For me, I just go to swim in the new fresh spring water lake formed by the many tears flowing. Instead of /popcorn I'm getting a full blown meal to sit and just read why they hate not being able to spam AOE with massive numbers on single targets anymore. The pain lasted over 5 months BW but as of this second reading their forums it was almost all worth it

Quesh huttball last night.... Gates open start at the game I jump down from the left quick turn fall down on the pipe and run for the ball... Normal time to the ball nothing overly special. But what I noticed was a scoundral already had the ball before I even dropped down from the second level. I mean maybe less than three seconds and he had the ball. He was half health but had the ball? Am I missing some loophole on the map that allows at the start of the game to get the ball in less than 3 seconds?

No. Melee will have no hope then. Especially against the pause inbetween HTL.

If you quote him. April fools will show up in a darker black at the bottom

Split?

M8. How long did it take them to figure out bolster was broken in midbies? If it isn't the cartel market, it isnt a priority. Either accept it or move on. It is what it is unfortunately .

The only people who defend 3.0 are those that wear light armor.

Hey folks.... I've leveled up my sage to 56 as a healer in PvP and really enjoying it. I've not seen too many posts lately on stats but a few minor posts here and there. Specifically for when I hit 60, what should my ideal force crit chance be. 25% seem good with a 69% surge with the rest in power and alacrity? Or should I not worry about crit at all and just run 7% alacrity with rest on power surge? Thanks for the help

Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!

Sweet tears of misery... Keep them coming. I will bathe in them with whiskey and coke when the patch comes out....

Force storm changes seem really nice

Orlando FL please. Loads of venues and the SE USA can attend.

This made me LOL....... +8

So much this^^^^^^. is why I'm questing my 30s to mid 40s. BW hates mid level players.

I am completely resigned to the fact that my lvl 30+ will have to suffer through pve content until level 41. My sage heal has had no new heals in ages and won't until 41. The lack of utility and shear lack of stats to do any meaningful healing is just horrible. And so. Balmora will be fully quested out with all bonus missions done to get me to 41 fast. I'll test the waters there again but PvP in the 30's is running a marathon uphill in the desert with full winter gear on.

This^^

Still bugged. Please fix or remove the text from the companion info guide. You can do this in like five seconds.... Go team BW!

If solo queue should not be taken seriously then there should be no raiting associated with it.... At all... It should only be there for coms.. But, because there is a rating and people do take it serious, there should be a gate system. Or just delete it.

^^^^ this

beefcake!!!!!!!

What is the point of having seasons and "ranked" matches if there is no gate system aside from being lvl 60. I would rather have fewer quality matches then more roflstomp or be roflstomped matches due to lack of experience both in play and gear.
