Hi,
Returning player looking for latenight raiding action. By late i mean anything starting between 21-22GMT. Weekends (Friday,Saturday) are good to stay until very late.
Main lvl70 scoundrel heals / dps (can do both, gear still low) everything else is still lvl65 (rep/imp alts)
Experience is all 8 mode raid done, all timed runs - deposer and dread master with the NiM buff still active - mainly as a healer.
Easy-going freedrama but trolling a bit is always encouraged
Have fun

It is 100% idiotic to give the best gear from the hardest content.
If you've already cleared the Hardest Content why do you need to improve your gear anymore?
The logical way to hand out the Best Gear is from the 2nd Hardest Content.
All The Best
For the next content that should be released.
But if you're not gonna release anything else anymore maybe you're right
-
The OP played this game since long time ago.
He felt attached to the people he played with and he enjoyed a lot the stuff they did together (basically raids but other stuff too)
Now these people left the game basically because all the sentences writed are in fact truth.
The OP is weak guy who had hope there was still time for a change.
But well, i guess BW is feeding on that hope for too much time already.
PD: Yet from time to time i still enjoy cracking some skulls in pvp tho, nowadays it's supereasy, it's farming

Nothing wrong with these.
The rest is just the usual "lets point out how bad this game sucks" type of thread that there is about 50 of each day.
It would be nice if people could try different subjects for a change, maybe even positive ideas for changes. I know, I know, that's a so called white knight thing and you could never ever be one of those. What would life be like if you weren't bashing everything about it?
None of the sentences are lies, so if you think that they are saying "lets point our how bad this game sucks" it's actually you who are pointing it.
There is only some funny sarcasm in a few of them xD.

- You like to play half-sleep
- You play to watch cutscenes
- You love companions aka as pets
- You like to level same class several times only to romance differents companions
- You like to level same class several times only to change a few choices
- You're relied when you see that none of the 2 last things matters at all, the end is always the same
- You like to play mmo solo
- If you're forced to group, it's only to go eseless for social points
- You dont want to be spoiled about what they will do next in-game, it's better to know nothing.
- You understand class balance is not good, sages/sorcs have to be better
- You understand that there is no reason to group up more than 8 people. No engine can work with that.
- You like to spend money with cartel market. CM is so lovely.
- It's obvious that the best gear in the game has to be given randomly each week in different operations, but never the hardest ones.
Ouch out of ideas, comeon i need more, who wants to add more
-
Bah i dont care about loot
I care about new content. New HM and NiM content that poses a challenge to the teams that were the bread and butter of swtor in old and better days.
They could add 232 gear in this old - rescaled - retuned (easier) - replayed NiM OPS and i wouldnt care.
Gearing without an objective has no meaning to me.
Meanwhile i'll pvp once in a while - until sub goes out - and probably after that too -
-
Uhmmmm ,wasnt people in this game for story?
I dont think there is any need for pretty much anything to see the KoTFe amazing storyline where choices matter.
PvE Ops are a joke, no need to regear anything for that.
So again, i can only se this hurting Pvpers (if they still play here)..... that poor guys will need to buy augments again to fight each other without gear gap.
In the last 2 years they received nothing, but had to regear several times already.
-
SM Operations might differ VASTLY from any other difficulty, though, because most of these OP guides were written by Zorz who NEVER played ANY kind of SM Ops ...
Dont talk about stuff you dont know about. Basically because then you're lying.
-
Raiding progression scene is dead since that patch that introduced a 204 mainhand for killing a bugged easy boss.
I think that was like 10 months ago?
Everything after that is easier than it was at that time.
BW is doing a master job killing any sign of interest in fun raiding and making everyone feel immortal and OP
Hey, at least they are good at something because 4.0 story is... let's say it's underwhelming imo.
PD: That crystal you talk about, just lol, it's bw laughing hard at raiders.
-
Interrupt too hard
Nerf!
-
Good luck,
You REALLY REALLY REALLY will need it for this.

I am a lightning sorcerer and
I was doing 8man temple and On the underlurker we kept failing i was doing 2930 dps...Is this low?
That was already low for a sorc at lvl60 in 3.0 and i've not check it, i'm not playing anymore at all, but i guess that classes do more dmg at lvl65 than what they did at lvl60 pre4.0
I may be wrong and they nerfed them tho. You never know with bw devs
one day they say better than crossserver... or never again 14 months without.... and then we got this lol -
So I'm returning to SWTOR after a long break, but I'm a very seasoned MMO player.
I have a massive gripe with 2 bosses thus far from story mode: Sword Squadron in the Temple of Sacrifice and Master and Blaster in The Ravagers. Simply put, these bosses are WAY WAY too hard for their locations. The entire point of story mode is to be done by PUG's. Most story mode ops I've done thus far have gone fairly smoothly, with the notable exceptions of Ravagers & ToS.
In essence, the last boss of a raid (or operation) should ALWAYS ALWAYS be the most difficult boss of said raid. This is fundamental logic 101: The last boss should be the most difficult boss. End. Of. Story.
I've seen multiple groups wipe on Sword Squadron & Master and Blaster. Many groups fall apart at these bosses. And every single group that gets by these bosses goes on to complete the operation.
It would be wise to tune these bosses properly for story mode. There's no reason they should be progression blockers. They can be difficult in hard mode, but not in story mode. To do otherwise would be completely illogical.
I think it was clear by now that tunning in this game == killing stuff doing 1,1,1,1,1,1,1 and ofcourse without moving.
lfmao
State of the playerbase and the game is so extremely bad atm, what a shame honestly.
Dunno if it will recover someday or its death blow
-
I'n pretty much done, might go back to wow.
I just don't understand their logic. I mean I think it's a great idea to have the HL hm each week to give the casual raiders a chance to get their toons bis. But then to strip the same rewards away from your hardcore raider base who have been with you for years. I just don't understand it at all, there is zero loyalty and zero consideration for end-game raiders.
it's like BioWare are beating the end-game raiding community with a shovel until it finally kills them and the ones that didn't get killed by the first blow of there being no new ops have only been further punished with this crazy (stupid) loot system.
The only legitimate reason I can possibly think of is that the top-tier guilds asked for nim to not drop 224 so that nim raiding can pose more of a challenge in being forced to run it in 220. But I doubt even they'd want that level of masochism.
Pretty much all Top-tier guilds-players left before 4.0 and are playing other stuff.
They may come back from time to time for 3 days - 4 days and run out again. It's called nostalgia.
-
I understand.
SWTOR changes.
Now is expected that hm are faceroll for any pug group you can find in tython and NiMs are a thing of the past.
With that logic in mind everything makes sense.
Someone found a hm he failed to pug. It has to be reported because that is not intended. Thanks op.
And yeah the: Bbut it wasnt that hard before? it makes it even more funny.
-
What did you expect?
I'm actually amazed you're still raiding here...
At the moment i think the players are to blame not bw. Bioware made their statement pretty clear with all 4.0 stuff.
IMO It's the raider playerbase who doesnt want to understand.
They killed the old concept of progression-gear-raiding dunno why u bother.
Have fun raiding. That's it
U wanna old-style raiding-progression? search somewere else.
In this game you will have the best gear going into the easiest ops (hello ev). Doing the hardest operations? meaningless... You know why? Because you have that achievment and it's 2 years old.
Actually it's worse, 2 years ago it was harder....
I've to blame myself too. I subbed 30 days i thought it cant be that bad. Seems i did huge mistake.
Edit: Hey, i saw the history of kotfe. It's kinda meh but it took 2-3h. Almost like same time and price of cinema. Dont wanna spoil anything. This game is all about story that would be not nice
Edit2: U know what is fun?. DP timed run for example. Depending on date of the achievment you will know it was actually something hard, average, easy as ****, or average? again.... lol just lol
-
They're too vain to just keep it a 8 raiding people guild, they need others to show off to or in worst cases just cruise around fleet in nim mounts and dread master masks, desperately attention-whoring. I would believe there are some "true" pve-ers but when the so-called # 1 progression guild Zorz quit once they discovered that the Ziost WB dropped mainhands better than Revan HM and thus proving how much, at the end of the day, they cared about stats and being progression and stats-wise ahead of everyone else...
.
Im not speaking for them but i rather think they quit because game was too easy for them.
More than 12 months without any challenge to overcome. Progression guilds need challenges, without it they die. Simple as that. So they quit. Only normal.
Some have fun trying to overcome difficulty. If the game doesnt give that to them they will look elsewhere.
-
Reality is simple.
BW decided to wipe the entire "hardcore" PvE community out of the game and probably the 80% of semi-hardcore with them.
Probably they think they will return for "5.0". Some will, some not.
Story fans think it's not a problem because we are the 1%. It can actually be true. We will see.
IMO 4.0 is just some youtube cutscenes. I rather play offline rpg for that....
6 days of sub left for me.
-
I would not assume is a lie.
He could had join a random ravagers run of 1 good team that was lacking 1 guy that day and now be 5/5.
It's absolutely possible.
Edit: I know several teams that have done stuff like that before
-
Some like to gear up alts they actually never use, they stand there in a dusty corner with a shiny armor because the fun part is to gear them up, not actually use them.
True story I heard from someone I asked why he/she ran so many OPS gearing up characters.
And some people actually play and do ops with their alts and wear gear not because are shiny but because it helps doing hard operations.
They can have the alt they wanna gear locked and farm gear for him with another alt/main unlocked.
The only reason they are there is to get gear for some alt.
The old rule about you can't need because your char has better gear was only reasonable pre-legacy
-
Already getting ready for savage alex raids myself in ff14. This game isn't fun anymore and no new raiding leaves me with little care to stay. If you are a raider, there isn't much options unless there simply isn't a game you'd rather play.
Same here
-
And.... this fits better to class forum.
-
I remember it was 14 months.
14 months from Ziost... June 2016?
Raiders dont count ziost. It's 1 single boss and actually its been only a problem than anything else.
At least before 3.0 they released NiM mode.
Not even that this time
-
They can not release something they do not have but we got the news that they will start create one right after the expansion.
Just before last expansion the very same DEVS said that yeah 1 year between raids was actually too much and they didnt want it happen again, sounded like a promise to raid community.
A BIG Lie at raid community face.
I would love if all raid community unsub this game until they bring new MMO content.
Myself i'm just waiting for my last 10 days to run out like pretty much all my guild/s did.
It's 1% so you will be fine without us
BTW pvp comunity can unsub too, they have been lied too for a long time already
one day they say better than crossserver... or never again 14 months without.... and then we got this lol
Underlurker enrage timer too quick for story mode?
in Flashpoints, Operations, and Heroic Missions

Instructions to beat "dps check" for this boss:
1-2-3 repeat 1-2-3 repeat 1-2-3.
Important not wait 10 seconds for each ability.
Note: Some classes can do with only 1-2 while others will need 1-2-3-4
Done.
