I have been playing since day 1 of launch, and PVP has always been horrible. I have been on 3 servers (FIraxen Shark > Corellia Run > Shadowlands) and no matter what I do, the republic side of PVP really really sucks. I might be part of the problem too, but when I spawned in huttball today after the enemy scored, I died from 3 people in our endzone. A sniper that never died kept spawn killing us all and a Jugg + 2 Sorcs cannot be beaten. In both versions of huttball, a sorc pulls jug to them, then they jump to the other near our goal. Yes i understand this could be a republic team too, but for some reason it never is. Out of 5 games today, I have won 1. And that one was a close one. The 4 loses were as if I was just a level 1 toon against level 65s. 3 shutout games of huttball and 1 horribad arena...
So BW can you just stop messing up classes to balance for PVP when it just ends up messing a lot of PVE up...
Cross-faction and cross-server PVP would even the playing field a lot... but that will never happen...
