Well I'm a sniper. Tried every spec. You might say I'm bad, I have nothing to prove you wrong. But I dont get destroyed like that by any other class. Sure vs a poorly geared Marauder, I will prolly beat him. But somoene with decent skill, and at least champ gear, will prolly kill me even if we are 2 vs him. Like I said, they aren't godly OP, cause most people don't use all their skill, and they need to gear up.But once you reunite that, you have a killing machine. And we can't balance around average player, we have to balance around the best player. What can a pro marauder do that a pro of any other class can't?

Hey all! Just wanted to know if you guys got the same thing on your server. Here on Kath hound, we have an explosion of marauder. About all team are Marauders with Assassins and 1-2 randoms class. Man do I miss sorcerer now. They were strong in group fight, but at least if one of them was focusing you, you know you could beat them. Tankassin are strong as hell, but you can still put a decent fight vs them. It will take 5 min to put them down, but still, they don't have a great burst. Now the new flavor, a class that people discovered and is now a plague : Maurauders. I can't judge yet if they are OP or not, because I didnt play one myself at 50. But my friend started playing one, he wanted to verify if they were as strong as people are saying. Result of our last duel (we are prolly equal skill-wise and gear-wise) : He killed me in 5-6 sec and with 70% HP. Didn't have to use is invul CD. As much as I can kill most people 1 v 1, he can kill people 1 v 2. Can you people enlight me with your opinion about marauders?

They aren't as hard as people try to say it. A clicker can still top DPS with that class. You just have to know when to pop your cooldown, and oyu have a lot. I'm really suggesting you to play one. Once 1.2 come out. if you arent a Sent/mar or a Sin, you are prolly dead.

I keep hearing people saying Marauder are harder to play so it's normal they are more powerful. Are you serious? Like some other here, I tried to play every class to 50 so I can verify if something is true or not. And trust me, Marauder arent harder to play then most other class. Sure if you compare to Sorc/sage, they are hard. It's not a feat. But compare them to scoundrel, GS with LoS, Tank Vanguard and guardian. They aren't harder then any of those class. I have as many keybind on my Gunslinger then my Marauders. Play a Sabotage Gslinger and tell me you don't have to micro manage cooldown and use 20-30 abilities. Now if you compare those 2 : With my marauders, I can win 1 vs 2 most of the time, and leave with a good chunck of health. If I'm doing well, I can win 3 vs 1 sometime. No other class I play can do that. And please guys, don't judge your marauders before you get good gear. They are gear dependant, once they have them, they are on a different level. And all of this, is pre 1.2 Edit : Can you guys tell me what's your situaiton on your server? On mine, since the 1.2 patch note got out, we have a Wave of new Sentinel. Its crazy in those Warzone

Ok TL DR don't go away finally

Hi There! Just wanted to write something about what I like about pvp and gear progression. It's my opinions, only wanted to share it so other people like me can see they aren't alone, and people that doesn't think like me can understand.. First, let me tell you I love pvping. Leveling my char in PvE was really a hard job for me, since I get bored really fast fighting AI and running around during hours. God bless Swtor, in that game you can actually level doing Warzone. It helped me so much. I had a feeling of getting stronger each day in pvp. I was more skillful, was getting new talent and new attacks, new items and new gears. Each of this thing was making me want to continue fighting and getting better. I was level 20 and was fighting level 50 with pvp gear (When it was possible). I was getting my *** handed to me. It was pumping me up to continue, knowing one day I would be as powerful as them, and I could avenge myself. I love the idea of the more you fight, the stronger you get. That's what I like about RPG, and that's why I get bored of FPS after 2 weeks. Now I am 50 and level 52 Valor (I'm a casual player) on a char that I have been playing since launch. I fight BM people all the time and even if they have better gear, it doesn't really make a difference. The gear difference at that level is so slim, skill and teamwork make the difference. But it still give me a goal to get them, so I can still get slightly better. The issue now is I feel the difference between a fresh 50 and a player that worked his *** off with is level 50 for 2 month is too slim. I can get on a fresh level 50 and get Battlemaster so fast. I see new Battlemaster each day and it doesn't mean anything anymore. My goal is getting less pertinent, and I feel less like continuing to play. For people that say : Well if you don't like it go somewhere else. I joined this game because their was gear progression in pvp. That's why I bought it, and thats why I won't play GW2, even if it looks like a great game. Now after all my work they have to change it and they plan to make it worse in the future? If you can put pressure on the Dev to make it change for your own good, i think I can do it too. Even more since the game was originally planned like that. For those saying pvp should be about skill and not gear I say : Why not both? Difference between Champ and BM is so slim, it doesn't matter when you are better then the other player. I personnaly think Grinding and getting better gear is a skill. It's a skill to be ready to invest time and grind it. I myself isn't a really good grinder, but I respect people that can do it. It's part of being skillfull for me. Thank you for reading this, feel free to share your point of view! P.S : Sorry about any mistake and grammar. P.S 2 : for TL : DR -> Well I won't resume it go away

In our guild, we have a scoundrel healer too. when he isn't saving our asses, he is fighting to survive because everybody want him to die. Too bad for them, he is bad *** in 1 v 1. The highest valor assassin on the imp side is always trying to get him. Our healer fought him many time and got him nearly each time. The assassin had to vanish or die cause he was out healed and getting killed. I think Scoundrel healer are the weakest healing class, but they can still do pretty well. You won't burst down people, but you will out heal them and kill them slowly. But you just wont win versus all class. Some of them you will have to heal and retreat, others like marauders/sentinel will eat you for lunch. But every class have their nemesis.

Gear make you stronger, in other news, sky is blue.

Not a bug? How is it not a bug? I can't move at all after getting throw back. I'm stuck until I die. So explain me again how it is not a bug?

On my part, I get it everytime I charge over a air vent. Maybe it depend of the class charge, I got a Vanguard.

I know it isn't the bug section. but is anyone else getting that bug when you charge someone and pass over an air vent during it, you get thrown in the air and you Char is bugged the hell out until you die? Like you can't really move you hit invisible wall? Its happens to me at least 1 or 2 time during each huttball that I have to die by /stuck because of that.

Oh Really? Tell me how it has any link to the subject? Looks like you didn't even read the thread, you just saw Alderaan and thought :" I should tell them Empire are better then republic! " but on the subject, I agree it's really annoying. Our Reps are undergeared on our server (we might get our first Battlemaster this week) and even with premade it's pretty hard to win Alderaan with the bug adding up.

You might want to re-read what I wrote. Make, other, class, more, appealing? You know? I didn't say anything about forcing someone? Just give us cool aobut other class so we see more diversity in the game!

It's easy to say when you are on a high population server. I like having a rivalry and all, but you know what I prefer? Actually playing a Warzone. Having to wait until primetime and always fighting the same BattleMaster premade isn't really fun.

On our server, about 75% of 50s Empire player are Assassin/Sorcerer. It's getting ridicoulus. I don't know if they are OP or something, but it would be cool to change that. Make the other class more appealing so I don't have to fight the same bubble guy over and over!

Happens for me nearly every game!

PvP on this game is real fun and challenging once you get some gear. At level if you die a lot, just work tru it and get gears. Your experience will change and become a lot better Just hope they will get Ilum some love and add some more Warzone! Welcome and have fun!

Same for me. Sent a ticket, never got an answer...

I play my level 50 only for PvP and the gear progression you get. If you uncap the commendation limit, not only would it suck for some of us that worked so hard for our Gear (they already made it easier), but it would remove any goal for new level 50 that like PvP AND Gear progression. Why I don't play a FPS? Because I get bored of always doing the same thing with no progression. Why I play a MMORPG? Because I want progression. I want to train my Char as long as I can so he gets better. As soon as I have every items and valor, I will simply stop playing. For me, a MMOrpg without the progression isn't a MMOrpg.

In the turret map, Civil war i think, I get a bug like 50% my games where I can't see the speeder to go fight. So I'm stuck I have to ether leave or get kicked by afk timer.

I agree that in team, especially huttball, its devastating!

Just want to start a discussion about Inquisitor/BH (or their mirror) Team in WZ. I see more and more of them, what do you guys think? Are they OP? Or they just funnier to play? No flamming, only one fair debate!

Right! So High Pop server will stay a local, and low pop like mine will have some warzone going on! Love the idea!

I have always been against the cross server PvP. But today, I might agree with this now. I'm a PvP heavy player. I don't really like pve, while I don't hate it during leveling cause the solo part was good. But now that I'm 50, no more leveling. I don't like raiding, and i'm kinda casual during weekend, can't play more then 1 - 1.5 hour a day. So I only come for Ilum armament (Hate it) and Warzone. Sadly, I'm on one of those low population server, Imp heavy (I'm repub). During day, until 8-9 pm, there is virtualy no Warzone popping. When we can get a pop, we are lucky to get 3 or 4 a day. (if lucky) When we get one, our Imp team are premade that got 1-2 battlemaster, and most champion. We only have 1 champion, others are undergeared. We have to do miracle to wins. Doing daily Warzone take half a week. With cross server, we could fight other team of Imps, geared like us. We could do warzone all day, having fun. Get some Gear to compete. A good solution would be ether to set priority to local server, if not enought player, go cross server. The other option could be to have an option to queue for local server only. But i dont know if it would work! Cross Server could be between juste some server too! So there is a kind of community too! Well just my opinions!

My highest crit on my Vanguard is 2.2k I Think :S
