Can someone please explain to me why I have 80+ FPS with ultra high settings in a big open world like Alderaan but once I enter the warzone (battleground) the FPS just dump down to 24-29.. sometimes if the screen is cluttered it is below 10 fps. I never expierenced any game in the last 2 years where my FPS would went down below 30 fps at least. Especially in PvP where FPS matter a lot it is horrible to have such bad FPS. So I read on reddit you need to turn off the nameplate scaling. This helped a little bit overall but in the end PvP just looked like a mess with all the nameplates floating around. Anyone has any other tips how to improve the FPS in warzones? I even set the graphic on "very low" but there was 0 .. i repeat 0 improvement in FPS compared to ultra high settings. I really love PvP but it just feels unplayable as melee.. do people experience the same thing?

sorry but this it not really fun... why not scale everyone to the same stats when you mix up every level that is in the game. newer players will feel frustration very fast when they play against such enemies. additional high level players will get bored slaying undergeared players all the time (at least I would get bord)

I just enter PvP with my level 16 jugger and notice that everyone around me is scaled to 65 (me including). Nice. Fast entry times, a lot of people to play with until I notice that my character sheet shows that I have about 1600 armor (with 52k HP) and an average reduction of 16% (as a tank jugger). I got shot once for 35k from a sniper (which is about 2/3 of my life). Just for your information. It is no fun to be cannon fodder. You life with the downside that you don´t have nearly as much skills as the other players who are way higher level then you are but your gear doesn´t scale in PvP up? comon, really. Or am I missing something here?

thx guys, the answers are all great. such a friendly community. I hope it will always stay like this I´ll check out the patch notes later when they are published. if consumables are removed from the game what does biochem then do?

Hey, I have a few questions regarding the current game. I´m a returning player and some of the stuff has changed quite a bit. So i started a new toon and wanted to know: 1) Is there any superiour crafting profession atm? 2) I used to have biochemie for crafting which gave an unlimited consumable in the end. Is this still the case? I would prefer a buff item which doesn´t consum itself over anything else 3) I only have characters until level 50. Does the story content after level 50 provide story missions for each class or only one general story for everyone? (and is the story worth playing) 4) I noticed that my darkness assassin can´t be played a hybrid anymore (tank + dps). Can a tank spec still dish out a good amount of dps in PvP or is tank spec in PvP generel only for the normal stuff like "carry the huttball" or "defend a turret as long as possible" .. 5) how fast do you level from 50 to 60 (just roughly if you play like a normal person every day 1-2 hours). Thx for any answers

overall its not as important. I still think its a shame that people skip the content that has been done with so much details and love (no alts but new comers). For alts I totaly understand the system and it makes sense. I just thought they would give 12x XP before every content update so people can level up before the content update. Thx for all the help this community is really awesome!

really? I thought it was made so you can level up faster to enjoy the new content. well, good to know. anyone knows if it will come back?

thank you for the helpful answers. As I said its not important how fast we level. We only want to explore everything and do everything on every planet without overleveling the content and therefore make it to easy (and boring)

Hey Guys, me and my girlfriend wanted to level a toon from 1 to max level to play the upcoming content patch. When we started we noticed a lot of difficulty as free players so we bought a sub. The sub now contains some sort of xp boost for the story quests. We had such fun leveling in the areas with the expected character level. The difficulty was challenging and not to easy. However with the sub we always seem to be above the required level. So, overall can someone please answer the following question: 1) What is the optimal setup if I want to have the original leveling experience as it was in the subscription based game before it went f2p? 2) Is there a way to get rid of the 12x XP boost? For us its all about the leveling experiance.. we don´t have any need to rush the content and skip the well made quests and interessting story lines. So if anyone could give us some hints and help us out it would be great. Thx guys and sorry for my poor english ^^

Hi Leute, ich hab einfach weil auf unserem server nicht vie los ist, auf der gegnerischen seite einen char am auktionshaus um mal nach schematiken etc. zu schaun. mir ist aufgefallen das fast alle orangenen teile explizit darauf hinweisen für welche klasse sie sind. soweit ok. bei den neuen kriegsheld sachen ist dem aber nicht so. heisst das, ich kann als Imp wenn ich an die rezepte rankomme, jedi klamotten craften und tragen? allgemein stehen bei den meisten jedi klamotten keine einschränkungen dabei. werden diese erst sichtbar wenn man sie als imp aufhebt? wenn jemand etwas weiss, wär super, bevor ich umsonst meine credits rauswerf ^^

comparing a maro with a sin is like comparing a 9mm gun with a shot gun maro does a loooooooot of AOE dmg, while assassins are mainly single target dps with a little bit of aoe. I also play a tank assassin with DPS gear. I have about 1568 willpower with 76% surge and 31% crit and normaly I crit shock with about 2.5 - 2.8k (depending on target). With relics and ALL possible boosts I can hit for about 4-4.5k (depending on target), but that only every 3 minutes .. If you want a character which hits for 5k (like deception) with survivability of a tank, then you are aiming for an OP class, which would destroy the PvP ..

Hey Guys, I was farming DNA stuff for quite while, got my crystal and spend the rest on the random boxes for the look of crew members, just for fun. I got 15 boxes, but only about 5 different looks (1 for me, 4 for jedi crew member) The only one I could use was 4 times the same. If anyone has experience with those boxes, or know what they can contain, it would be great if you could share. Thanks

I´ve been slicing now with 2 characters (all 400, with 10k each crew member) every 45 minutes, and I did not recieve ANY schematics for arguments, only one for a purple bike (cybertech) Can anyone explain to me what I´m doing wrong? Also, which profession do I need for assassin arguments if I recieve one? Mainly willpower, attack arguemtns, if something like that exists. I have sythweaving as profession, is there a schematic for this profession?

implantant and ear piece will not have expertice .. belt can´t be craftet with slot (orange) offhand can´t be craftet with slot (orange) arms stuff can´t be craftet with slot (orange) so you basically only have head, cheast, gloves, shoes, legs and main weapon with a critical argument slot. Still you need FULL war hero gear to get the set bonuses from everything. the one that pulls up that much effort should have the bonus. also, all craftet stuff is tradeable, so everyone, really everyone can have this.

Only war hero and PvE (T4) gear (the new 1.2 gear) has the set bonus in their argument slot. You just need T4 and put it in your T3 crafted bm gear, and viola .. perfect set, and looks way better ^^ have fun grinding
