PVE is playing against a simple single AI and therefore requires very little balances to individual players, PVP is a very delicate and complicated balancing act trying to balance real people and how they use their characters skills, If I were you I would get used to it as its just the way it is and always will be.

If you pvp you will likely want to buy and use the champion relics which are better than the light/dark V in and out of pvp or if you don't need the 2nd relic buff then you are better off with going and getting a matrix cube for its stat increase. Also, once I ditched diplomacy it was tough to keep Dark 5, you will lose it often if you do group stuff but then gain it back.

As a player YOU DO NOT WANT THIS, my last "MMO" had a system in which you could earn extra xp when you play (like a 2 times bonus) and then that xp could later be converted with in game gold which was purchased for real cash, this is a very addictive system and I know a number of "hardcore" players that easily spent upwards of $500 in 1 years time, the game Devs then centered the game around "the grind" in order to frustrate players to the point that the xp boost was necessary. Its a very slippery slope and we as gamers need to reject this idea.

They are a drop, check the GTN, mine always has 1 or 2 available or you can get the blue commedation boxes for level 31 gear and grind for it that way or last do heroics for level 31.

Roll on a RP server and QQ to your RP community, otherwise if players want them for THEIR characters then who cares what YOU want?

I'm so thankful that grouping is basically optional in this game. I hate games that lock you down where you can't have real life stuff going on at the same time and be able to respond to it, yet there are people that I can casually interact with and play against. SWTOR is "real life friendly" and I hope they keep it that way, I'll bet they keep a large future playe rbase with less burnout because of it.

I don't even have to look at the screen to click my buttons, I've tried the keybind method in other games and have found it too clunky. believe me, there is no difference, you can be just as fast either way on account of the GCD.

I have nearly every Empire class including 5 lvl 50s and 2 lvl 30s, I have 2 Maras as well but just can't get the will to level them past lvl 30ish, I want to like them as they're fun for a bit but that just seems to fade and I burn out on them.

Republic Memorabilia and Courting (after 2k affection) will get her up for romance, also make sure to do the companion quests as you go as they will unlock massive amounts of affection and relationship advancement.

There is no doubt that on my server there are far more DPS Sorcs than there are healers.

From the looks of this and your other posts, I would say that its you that doesn't seem to understand Star Wars lore too well, and definitely not the spirit of it. Diversity is at the core of the franchise, some of the greatest heros and villains in SW lore have been crossover species and crossover alliances. Its a video game, and the vast majority could care less if someone else is offended by any of this, like most things in life if you don't want to do it, don't and let others play how they will.

Well, in a 1v1 healers are incredibly tough to take down, really the best way is through attrition of their force power (basically stay alive till they run out of force). I believe, that since all warzones are supposed to be a team effort, that the goal is to win the best thing you can do is to make a healer heal himself and fight you and not helping his teammates.

Most classes are really better as a DPS/Tank Hybrid while leveling, then respec around 40 when you can get the top skills, Ive had this experience in multiple ACs. So, I suggest going Pyrotech early on, then switching the ST later, others may disagree but its a lot less frustating and you can still tank gear if you like.

Well first, obviously Sorcs and Sages are popular but likely a mistake the OP is making is that Sages/Shadows and Sorc/Assassins are all popular classes and just because you see a disproportionate number of Sorc/Sage icons at the end of pvp matches is probably due to the fact that they are shared with 2 other popular classes. Its a stupid little thing, but maybe a new icon for ACs would benefit people like the OP and keep QQing down a bit.

15 to 30 min cooldown on reentering a pvp que unless you complete the one you left (reconnect). Bioware will really destroy pvp if this isn't addressed, at this point, pvp is being made into a grind for your daily/weekly in which only wins count and a pvp system in which its very unlikely that the fortunes of the match will change beyond the 1st few mins. I can't think of any reason why someone WOULDN'T want to leave a bad team. Eventually this will cause many people to just stop pvping all together if not fixed.

there should be a simple 15 -30 min debuff from entering any warzone OTHER than the one that you just left, its enough to discourage the ones that leave in hopes of joining a new match but still allows disconnects to get back in.

My relics constantly disappear, but I've never experienced my skills disappear unless I accidentally click unlock and move them of while clicking.
