Lol @ the buff bar being huge!

This is an awesome idea, I hope it gets a lot of support

OP got owned by a team that had a Sorc that knew how to best use the pull mechanic. OP crys nerf because he doesn't have a Tank on the team that can effectively use the pull mechanic the other way. nothing to see here. @OP there is a counter to that mechanic, meaning its working as intended

This. People hate on ops cause they wtfpwn lowbies and people that have a gear deficiency. But once the marus and sins start to get gear they do a ton more damage and have better defensive cds. To hate on ops cause their opener makes you crap yourself is stupid when sins and marus with gear do twice the damage of ops with out the need of stealth opener

The devs have already stated they plan to fix open world pvp. They are working on it. Why do these posts come up everyday?

So let me get this straight. You're: LVL50 60 Valor and Full Champions/BM? Well then now you can start to actually play the game You have everything that people are trying to get, so now you pvp cause you can crush your opponents and make people come on the forums and cry nerf. If you need something to be working towards save up 1k/1k and get 65 valor for the cool kids title and mount. You can then queue with your buds and own people helping them get epic lewtz and get into a good PVP Guild and start practicing your strats so when the ranked system comes out you can crush people that won't just roll over after a few mins. Or like other people have said start and alt cause you know if you beat up on people to hard they nerf your character and you need to have backup characters that haven't been "balanced":cool:

This is what I did

Was talking about this with my guild last night, yes we would just to balance world pvp

This is a blatant lie, after the stealth opener your reslove bar is full, the only thing the operative can do it root or slow you since its not effected by the resolve. There is no other CC until your bar is gone. So either your standing there derping thinking your stunned, or its a bug. Also if the operative is LoSing you and has time to heal to full then it sounds like you simply suck... They might get one heal in time and in no way can that heal them to full, you have a interrupt that can be used on said heal. Not to mention you could be healing yourself as well!

your processor is ancient. You need a new one.

I lol'd

PVPing to PVP is only going to keep people playing for so long. There needs to be some sort of reward for doing it. Look at open world PVP right now or the lack there of... Everyone will be at the same gear level once everyone gets to the highest level of gear... In the current game it seems a bit OP because not many people have full BM gear, but think about when rated WZ's come out, hopefully people will be mostly BM geared and there will be groups of 8 people playing together against similarly geared players. That is where the skill based PVP should start. Everyone that thinks PVP should just be an even playing field from day one just wants welfare epics and everything given to them now. That isn't what playing MMO's are about, BW wants you to keep playing, people want rewards for playing, if you can put in the time and effort of getting the gear you should be on an even level of other people that have done so. If you can't then you should be at a disadvantage.

This, although Alderaan does have a bug where if you catch someone flying to the side turrents and hit them before the dismount they instantly die. Its hilarious:eek:

/sign I like the idea of gear progression in PVP being differentiated to PVE, because it sucks when you work hard to get full PVP gear and then some PVE guy comes in with their raid gear that it just overpowered in PVP and ruins it. In wow at one point the PVP gear was 2 tiers behind and anyone could just destroy a pvp geared person in their raid gear. I don't think it should be completely unusable in PVP i just think if you spend the time to get full PVP gear you should have a gear advantage over someone who just jumps in when he's bored. Its the same thing in PVE, you have to have x, y, or z to get into the raid. Don't say that doesn't happen in this game people are already starting it.

http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#401MffbzGoRzcZMchMzZM.1 Good medic build. Would say medic is a good choice as well for leveling. At least until 36 concealment is terrible and really 40 is where it begins to shine.

I would love LOVE a world LFG channel that only people with the LFG flag can see/use and has enough monitoring that it will keep from becoming a new world wide /1. I do not want want a dungeon finder like they had in WoW. I do not want to be instantly teleported to the start of a dungeon and the dropped back into the spot where I was at the end. I think this makes it much to easy for people to rage quit and be general ***** to everyone they meet, which does ruin the community. I think it should be a bit easier to get a group then it is now, but I don't want it to go the dungeon finder route and decimate a growing community

There are already changes put into the test server... it's coming

The Imperials out number the Republic but if you queue solo Republic almost always wins, they just seem to be better players. The Bastion (US)- PVP server, there is a lot of higehr level republic players that are geared. They seem to run in premades more often as well. I would say its a good fit.

^^this^^ I generally only pug these days if I want to farm medals...

Republic owns WZs on my server, the only way to beat them used to be having a premade, now they all seem to be lvl 50 and its getting hard to beat them with out a lvl50 premade. We may still have the population advantage as imperials but that doesn't help much in WZ's and hurts us in ilum

http://www.swtor.com/blog/rescheduled-maintenance-january-12-2012 Rescheduled patch to today!!! :eek::eek::eek: Hoping they turn on the anti-hacking stuff before these hacks get out of hand. Would like for them to hold off on 50 bracket for at least another week personally

Play an assassin, at 50 with good gear you will crush everyone, you don't have to fear the nerf bat since everyone hates ops not assassin, and you still have everything you need to pug and open world pvp effectively. You can also respec tank and get groups for FPs

There wasn't a patch.... so there's no telling what they are going to implement tonight/tomorrow I don't understand how after 2 pages no one realized the patch was delayed....

Healer/DPS with great melee tank pet and CC... PVE effectively broken I rolled sorc first realized there wasn't much of a challenge with PVE so switched to operative, its a bit rougher especially before 36.

This is a great interpretation of the class mechanics. Actually one of the simplest forms I have seen. Based on this post Most of the classes are balanced by their counter or a counter mechanic built into the game. I don't understand all the nerf threads, if your playing collaboratively in a group setting everyone can be countered. The problem at the moment is that people get pissed when then meet their counter and call for nerfs. The consumable stacking doesn't help much since it makes the defeat that much quicker and more noticeable.
