I have been playing GS for a few weeks now, have upgraded 3 ships, Was no expert, but could hold my own, but since the update, I am getting blanked regularly. Has anyone else seen this? Just seems like after the update and the addition of the F2P, something got adjusted. Thanks for listening.

Thanks for the reply, Is bolster the customization of the armor?

Hello all. One day i was a Level 50 with mostly War Hero War Leader gear and a little Battlemaster gear thrown in. I was doing warzones to improve my valor to 60. I was finally getting competitive (or so I thought) Life was good. Then 2.0 hit. Now I am at Level 54 and can't defeat anyone it seems. Did I misunderstand when 2.0 came out, was i supposed to get rid of all my War Hero gear and go pick up low level classic gear and start all over again? Seems like my only choices are that or wait until i hit 55 and then i can access some higher gear. Now maybe it is a class thing or maybe i just suck, but I see people with a lot lower overall level. So I have to ask, where did I go wrong. Thanks PRG
