  1. The Age of Conan in me wants to hack hands, feet, arms, legs, heads, and torsos in SWTOR. A New Hope, Cantina scene Obi instantly ended a bad situation with 1 swift motion of his light saber. Where is our iconic saber play? How about multiple finishing moves? When you get the death blow, make it interesting. Depending on the attack/special used an animation is used. Mara throwing both sabers into the chest then jumping on the target to recover them. Sniper finishing off a target by blowing an extremity off Jedi hacking off its enemy's legs disabling it Sorc using force lightning frying the target Smugg shooting 2nd ending the Rodian's life and leaving credits to the cantina owner for cleanup costs Agent uses a dagger in the back

  3. LoL you think rolling healer or hybrid automatically sets you as healer in 4vs4?? Umm, check the queue and what you have selected . . . Plenty of us are healers displaying dmg and visa versa.
  4. PvP Shoutouts for the up and comers. 10-29 30-54 Vétté <--- where have you gone? Glad you're not annoying us!! Stay away! Lalah <--- damn your DPS
  5. Since the server move we are now on The Shadowlands server I'm still kicking it. Been hitting lowbie PvP hard recently. Svetta, Vader, Liquor, Mako, Vette are my toons. Most imps but making a couple pubs soon. I have a couple on PoT5 too
  6. Planetary Control: Star Wars: Galaxies had many pvp areas on the planets. Usually 3 areas on the planet where rebels and imperials could control 3-5 computer terminals/stations/antennas thus controlling the facility. Once all 3 areas were controlled the planet was under that faction's control. The more planetary control a faction had the greater the valor/xp/legacy xp received that day/week/month. This directed areas for wide open pvp from both sides. Each side had a chance to take control and/or steal control away. Community as a whole participated because of the xp rewards it boosted. Open World PvP Area: SWG had a city on Rori called Restus. It wasn't a very active city, let alone planet. To bring in more interest into the planet, the Devs put on an event within the city. PvP started with objectives like take control of this antenna relay, this computer terminal, kill this faction leader and his troops. After 2 weeks of fighting the battle destroyed the city. The remains of the city became a wide open pvp area with the same objectives during the event. Who ever controlled the city controlled the planet. Planetary control gave a boost to faction legacy/valor/experience gains. There were pinch points in the city, areas where we could regroup or set up for an attack. 1 main shuttle/spaceport with respawn areas on either side of the battled city. Why can't SWTOR have its own version of SWG planetary control and Restus? After Jump to Lightspeed (open space flight) it was the most popular area of activity in the game. this is faction based area pvp not a free for all zone. so teams of pubs and sith alike can battle it out together and control the war's outcome
  7. you wont have real lag till you start hitting 1k pings. 350 isn't bad.
  8. LoL at Twinks in SWTOR go play AO and then talk about twinks. no, there is not a twink in SWTOR. if I am wrong show me. Min-Max gear is far from twinking. When a lvl 10 and equip lvl 50 gear, Ok then. but you'll only find that in AO, not SWTOR. gearing up with purples, twinking? no not really when it is easy for anyone to do. grind out a couple lowbies to get the mats, pound out a few mods and you're done in a couple hours. twink argument is invalid...
  9. I have multiple characters of all level ranges. I have been crafting purples every 10 levels or so. This helps me out a great deal when i hit 13, 23, 33, and 43. Gear up my character and its main companion in purple gear and roll out. it gets me through 8-10 levels quickly and very efficiently. I only upgrade this gear through mission rewards if it has better stats. currently there isn't much on the GTN for these mid level ranges when it comes to purple gear. if its there it is priced too high for the average player to get a full set, let alone gear up their companion. if an XP gain switch was in place, players would be more apt to do some pvp and gear up in purples. plus more player would see the value in upgrading crew skills and selling on the GTN. I dont have the time to stock up on mats to support my server at this time. I spend enough time to crew skill the required purples and move on to the next set. if there was a larger market though, I would spend more time on it and sell the purples and blues for players. i fill requests when they come in but not many know about it or even ask about it. i dont see pvp becoming a twink game. in Anarchy Online, yes. but not in SWTOR since the community can support it if we so choose via GTN sales when the demand is there. The level ranges are small enough that it wont matter too much plus how bioware is handling the pvp system
  10. with 2.0 additions/changes to PvP the ability to toggle off XP gain would be an excellent addition. Players will now be separated into three level brackets for normal Warzone play: 10 – 29, 30 – 54, and level 55. the lower level brackets will get some use as players level their characters but we have big gaps for crew skills. Sure we can already make a ton of high level gear, but we do not see a lot of the lower level and mid level purple gear. being able to toggle off XP gain would boost this area. players would get a 29 character or 54 level character and hold them there to PvP as long as they wanted too without worry of gaining an unexpected/unwanted level. instead of the 10-29, 30-54, and 55 ranges, why not keep current pvp gear in game and adjust the pvp range to fit? 10-29 30-49 50-55 many current lvl 50's have at least war hero. many more have EWH. while the current level 20 and 40 pvp gear would still be viable. comments, thoughts, concerns?
  11. did we loose it just now? lag hit a wall on bal during solo boss fight

  13. Agreed, you laugh but this old rig is doing just as good or even better than you new hardware geeks FX-60 (liquid cooled, stock timings) 4 Gig DDR2 9800 GTX SLI (latest drivers) Windows 7 Ultimate (latest updates - tweaked for performance and remove fluff) Creative X-Fi Titanium (latest drivers) Twin Raptor 32Gig drives RAID-0 (OS) Twin Raptor 150Gig drives RAID-0 (games) edit: 1K power supply. - this here is the biggest issue for those that have slow frame rates and the most overlooked performance part in a built system. if you are SLI you will need at least an 800 watt PSU to feed those thirst GPUs Graphic settings via Nvidia ctrl pnl - All ON and set for max quality Resolution 1680x1050 (restricted by monitor) Game settings: All maxed and On steady 80 FPS via FRAPS turn off shadows, vsync, and Shaders and watch the Frame Rates jump to over 130 this rig cost me $3K back in 2004 and I've only upgraded the sound and video cards since then. OK, i have slower loading times...time to make a drink between worlds How does your rig compare? It always out performs my M17X (2 years old). Intel Core2 Extreme Quad QX9300 2.53GHz (12MB Cache, 1066MHz FSB) 8GB Dual Channel DDR3 at 1333MHz 2 x 4096MB SLI Dual 1GB GDDR3 NVIDIA GeForce (NB10E-GTX1) 512GB (256GB x 2) Solid State Drive - RAID 0 Resolution is 1920x1200 Nvidia settings are On and set for quality What a waste of $6K. But it does a steady at 60 FPS. Then turn off Shadows, Vsynce, and Shaders and its 110 FPS my conclusion? if you spent more than a grand on a system to play SWTOR, you wasted it all. for under a grand you could put together old hardware that will run SWTOR just fine. its funny to read all the complaints from high dollar system owners about poor performance when an FX-60 and 9800 GTX rig can meet or beat your actual gamelay frame rates. Crysis anyone?
  14. they are BOP i have 2 boots and 1 gloves still waiting to do it again today to see if i get something different this time
