Hello Bastioners I have kept an active subscription since launch, and have spent 90% of my time in game pvping. However, I have only really stuck to regular warzones with a friend of mine and would like to app to a pvp guild that will be doing arenas in 2.4. I am interested in 8v8 ranked games as well but I know they will be going away soon. As for the time being, I would just like to find a 4 man group to queue for regs with until arenas come out. I have 3 empire 55s: Depinto - sorc (heals main spec, comfortable with madness and lightning) Depintowned - mara (rage main, comfortable with carnage) Mknightshamalon - operative (heals main spec, comfortable with concealment) I also have multiple max level republic toons as well (guardian, vanguard, shadow) but I am looking to just focus on my empire characters. I have leveled every AC in the game above 40, and have a very large understanding of how all the classes work. I'm not a keyboard turner or clicker, and I take my pvp very seriously (as serious as you can take it with a 2 man team and 6 pugs at least, because that is the majority of my swtor experience). I play to the objectives first and have good situational awareness. If you are interested in any or all of my characters, please let me know. Also, my friend is willing to come over if you need both of us. He mains an operative but also plays a sin, mara, sniper, and sage.

To the OP, I've had a really similar complaint as you except in regards to the Sorcerer gear. I have made countless forum posts asking for a simple, standard black sith robe (akin to Emperor Palpatine). I want to my model my sorc after his look, with the creepy black robes. I even went to the chicago community cantina tour event and asked the devs if they had any plans of adding something like this. Their official response..."I thought we added them in the last cartel pack." I believe they were referring to the diabolist set shown here....http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://dulfy.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/swtor-diabolist-armor-setsupreme-moguls-contraband-pack_thumb.jpg&imgrefurl=http://dulfy.net/2013/07/09/swtor-supreme-moguls-contraband-pack-contents/&h=244&w=228&sz=19&tbnid=W3ChxCv4doamyM:&tbnh=90&tbnw=84&zoom=1&usg=__VbSfPUhwEKRBTZHkGxkKEJWAgWE=&docid=s7Cf_rA3mSMEWM&sa=X&ei=kGAmUtj5Aoqd2gXwqIGIBg&ved=0CEYQ9QEwAw&dur=68 While this is a great start (believe me I am currently wearing this set on my sorc), I am still a little disappointed by the form fitting sleeves. They just don't look right to me. I want to see the "wizard style" sleeves that Palpatine has. Refer to the link for an idea of what I mean. http://lucasfilm.wikia.com/wiki/Emperor_Palpatine

Queue for a warzone and see how quickly 16 people get matched up into a game. Now queue for a SM Ops group and see how long you wait. PvP isn't crucuial? I think you are wrong sir...

People have made multiple threads asking about this since launch. Will bioware ever listen to their community? /signed

Hilarious!

imp pvp - lot' of solo or double queues, minimal communication, lots of recruit gear pub pvp - geared premades communicating on voip of their choice obviously the pubs are going to slaughter, to brag about it is hilarious l2ranked, then brag

people have been making these crybaby "I got ganked on a pvp server, waaaahhhhhh" posts for years now Make an alt, play the alt for a little while, switch back over, they'll probably be gone, get over it, PVP SERVER

cool, sounds good

Hello, I am in need of 2x Resolve Armoring 27s. I am willing to trade my Czerka CR-17 podracer mount for them or even their mats. Send mail to Depinto (empire) or Chocolatefunk (republic) Thanks

Your videos are cool/impressive BUT... There is no way you would be able to 3v1 or 4v1 the way you did in the vids in a RWZ match, in fact, you would probably be hard pressed to beat some of these guys 1v1, the guys you are dueling seem really really bad

Great Guide! I would also like to point out that for some classes, your PvE set bonuses are still better for PvP than the PvP set bonuses themselves. However, you do not have to sacrifice your PvP stats. Example: Sorcs/Sage Healers The tionese/columi/rakata 2-piece set bonus lowers the cooldown of innervate by 1.5s, a crucial set bonus for healers. You can achieve this set bonus by acquiring the tionese/columi/rakata boots and gloves. This will change your customized appearance minimally. Then you can buy the war hero offhand or the elite war hero bracers/gloves/offhand and pull the armoring out. The armoring on these pieces is not slot-specific like the chest/pants etc. When you apply these armorings to your PvE pieces, you get the PvE set bonus that is carried on the "shell" piece and not the armoring themselves. Disclaimer: This only works for PvE gear that is pre-rakata as the campaign/dreadguard PvE set bonuses are carried on the armorings themselves and not the "shell"

The Scissor Sisters: Depinto (sorc) and Xcornelius (sin dps)

bump?

Hello bastion, Our kickball style RWZ was extremely successful on Oct 13th. We had 4 solid hours of queuing. We were not farming or win trading, but the teams seems to be very evenly matched. The games were very fun and competitive, and we each so a nice division of wins and losses. Everyone was so pleased with how it turned out that we will be doing this again on SAT OCT 20th at 12pm PST/2pm CST. Thanks to everyone that attended over the weekend and I hope to see you all there on Saturday. Message Depinto or Xcornelius for invites, or keep an eye on gen chat around the scheduled time.

my apologies for the typo in the date, it is indeed the 13th, thank you for the catch

Hello members of The Bastion Server: I will be organizing some RWZ queues on Saturday Oct 10 starting at 2pm CST (12 PST). We will start by inviting 16 people to an operations group, and then dividing the group into two separate groups. This will allow us to guarantee queue pops. If one team is consistently winning (because we will actually try to compete), then members of each team will be moved around to ensure that the games actually feel competitive. Hopefully, we can get this together and working, but I will need your help. Please tell your friends! All are welcome, and we will be using ventrilo. Message Depinto or xcornelius as we will be the two forming the groups.

The vendor on Tatooine has been camped by a raid of Rebuplic players each time I visited it this week making it nearly impossible to purchase anything from the vendor. Can we please have a Fleet vendor so that we can turn in our leftover DNA's.

PVP! You'll be surprised how fast you level. I fell into the same situation going into Belsavis. I was 38 and all the quests required 41, so I pvp'd from 38=41, I got the 3 levels in one day.

only baddies hate on meters, it's usually because they suck and get ripped on for having scrub dps, then they qq about how there shouldn't be meters
