  1. Don't worry OP, we've dialed whine-one-one and a whaaambulance is en-route to help you.
  2. What? It's this type of thinking that continues to entitle companies to put out substandard products and profit from it. You expect to pay money for food that isn't prepared fresh and at proper temperature? Wow. I'd complain. I'd hand it back to them and tell them to prepare me a proper *********** burger. Or to give me my money back. If the kid behind the counter argued, I'd go above him to the next person in the chain of command. And in the end I will probably not only get my freshly prepared and proper burger, but my money back as well for the inconvenience they put me through along with their shoddy service.
  3. Actually entertaining. I lol'd a few times. Thanks for sharing. Been putting it off for so long, but finally starting to get my mara geared up.
  4. And I reiterate that I went through the bag RNG grind as well for my first 50. Big whoop. The grind sucked then. The grind sucks now. The grind will suck in any and all future incarnations of grind forever more. The only reason many of us do it is because we HAVE to given the current nature of MMO design. Grind grind grind, keep paying money to do something completely opposite of fun so that one day you actually CAN have fun. Because that's the rub. Once everything is finally grinded out (at least to get to the minimum required stats to compete realistically) then it IS fun in it's own way. Otherwise we wouldn't all be here and going through the ********. You're not special, many of us against the nature of grind did in fact grind it all out through the stupid random chance bags the same as you. Believe it or not sometimes the have's can actually empathize with the have-nots and want change to make the quality of life better for everyone overall, rather than cling to the elitist snobbery that comes with being a have and looking down upon the have-nots.
  5. And there's the whole issue. GRIND = Work = Monotonous chore = Not fun = Antithesis of a GAME we pay for to relax and have fun. @ People talking about cost and server: Harbinger. Yes it's PvE. My other option for the RP-PVP server I was on was a forced relocation to an east coast server where the ping of my friends and I went up 70-80ms. So we re-rolled here on a server with a sub 30ms ping instead. It's not like there was actually world PvP anyways to warrent the loyalty to a PvP server type. The cost is for: 30k x 14 to use the kits (420k) Aug kits 240-300k each x 14 ( 3.36m @ 240k each) Purple augz around 120-180k each depending on type x 14 ( 1.68m @ 120k each) So on the low end that's 5.46 mill. That doesn't include ripping the mods out of the BM gear to begin with which is what, around 100k each? 3 mods per item so 300k per item. Min of another 1.5m That's a pretty huge investment for ENTRY level gear. Again, goes back to the grind. How much pve is that? How many WZ's of getting faceplanted in recruit gear to get that much credits saved up? It's pretty damn cost prohibitive. Or the other option is, as the one dude said, roll alts specifically to craft. Again, that's either a lot of pve to farm, or a lot of creds to spend to skill up and acquire mats.... You may call it effort. Most of us call it paying a sub fee for completely boring monotonous work just to get to the fun part. It's like paying a pimp to kick you in the junk for 7 hours before finally getting a blow from the ******. On what planet is that a good investment?
  6. So much wasted money. On my server, given the average cost of the kits+augs you're looking at roughly 7.2m credits to augment shells you're going to be getting rid of asap.... It's like spending your paycheck to pimp out a p.o.s. honda when you know in 3 months you're going to be trading it in for a new car anyways.
  7. Sorry mate, did the whole bag grind as well. It sucked. The current grind, suck. Grind? Suck. Future grind? Future suck. *This is a game. This isn't real life. This isn't your political soapbox to scream from. This isn't the freaking world you live in to try and manipulate to suit your hatred of others. It's A Game. P.S. Restating: Did the random chance grind with you, through the ilum exploiting, through the trades, through the all level brackets. Grind sucked then. Grind sucks now. Grind sucks forever. RL is full of enough suck that the GAME we play to relax from the miserable ******** of the world shouldn't be a suck-*** grind as well. It should be FUN and relaxing.
  8. .... It's a game. These people are sad. Seriously. Life priorities all ****ed up here. My condolences and pity.
  9. Absolutely abyssmal PvPers on average compared to even the PvE servers. No joke. For a better PvP experience you'd be better served on Jung Ma, or a PvE server where the only people that really queue for PvP are those that are interested in PvP'ing (and winning).
  10. Funny how when people use the word carebear to describe other people you can pretty much make an accurate guess that they are really just a jerk who gets his rocks off by treating other people poorly via the safety and anonymity of the interwebtubez. *However I would like the idea of FFA pvp. It's one of the reasons I enjoyed griefing... I mean, pvp'ing, in AoC.
  11. ^ This. And the guy(s) saying recruit helps more... No, it really doesn't. Your recruit gear is just as effective as greens or naked when we tab onto you with our aug'd WH pyro/mara and quad-global you or less every time.

    Arenas

    Arena's would be sweet.... Pyro/Mara/Tanksin/Healer OP combo's all day errday. Everyone else go home.
  13. Blah blah blah. The vast majority of people I run into on my server are already geared up at least in BM (aug'd). Subs are dropping, not growing my friend. Most people in recruit gear anymore are gearing up their alts. The WZ's are controlled by the failed premades thta couldn't hack it in ranked (and sometimes barely manage in unranked). I COULD waste my time tab targetting around using the terribad tab-targetting system in TOR looking for recruit geared people when I'm on my alts. I COULD work my *** off to try and survive long enough to drop an interrupt on the healer.... that noone else is paying attention to much less focus firing upon, only to get blown up by the faceroller pyro/maras. I COULD essentially bash my head into the wall repeatedly trying to contribute amidst the venom and bile that the rest of the team spews forth towards people who aren't in fully aug'd BM gear. Or I could watch a movie on one of my other monitors, rub one out, play fetch with the dog, help my kiddo with her homework, or a myriad of other things instead while doing the grind up to bare-minimum gear in order to make playing the WZ worthwhile. Seems a far better investment for my time to do the latter. Also lol at your whine about contributing to the "team". A team suggests respect and cooperation. Things which are both severely lacking in the ToR/MMO community.
  14. Moral of the story: Pay your sub fee to watch television, or do ANYTHING else while randomly running in and tab-1-2-3-4-5-repeat'ing in WZ's until you have full BM + enough cash saved up to augment it all. THEN, and only THEN do you start to actually "play" in PvP. Or you can keep attempting to "play" in your recruit gear as those of us in fully aug'd WH (with proper remodding) quad-global you everytime you leave spawn. If you're a masochist this may be enjoyable. Doubtful though. So pay your sub fee for a month to do anything but actually play the game. Aint it grand?
  15. Yes actually. You do not matter. You are just random information over a fiber optic line being fed to my monitor. If setting you and other pixels back causes gain for me, the person that matters, then by god that's what needs to happen. Period. And that's my responsibility..... how? I'm not a teacher, I don't get paid to help someone get better. Pay me and I'll gladly do it. But there needs to be some kind of compensation for it to get me to care. That is the point of existence buddy. Don't know where you live but it sure isn't a capitalist democracy.
