Back in S1 we got those weapons and armour for rewards. Although only the headpiece is used by anyone the main reason no one used this gear was the fact that PVP players who are not flush with funds had to shell out to purchase MK-9 kits and reaugment the gear. Could the S3 rewards please come with MK10 slots already in place, if you want to get really picky at least give us the MK9 slots.

ELO takes into consideration when skankhealers are on your team. Bioware can you confirm? On a serious note the elo in this game is as followed: If win: Gen.ran(1-25) If loss: Gen.ran(1-25) Confirmed by MIT professors 2014.

Interesting read: http://swtor-arenas.com/ilmarinen.htm I hope more teams Q S4. Pleas remove if this is a repost that I didn't see.

Anyone who didn't expect this is a moron. Biggest factor here is out of EA and Bioware control. Wildstar and ESO launched in this reporting period and I was one of those players who paid to try those games and unsubbed here. I'm back as are many others. For all the flaws in SWTOR I think that without knowing just how much revenue is down the story here could in fact be positive.

You opinion is null and void, when it's likely that one of these guys is you or at least on your friends list. They're trolling and I'm sure BioWare can check the logs relating to both players and have a look at whispers etc where it will more than likely confirm all of this. Dude please stop sprouting the same nonsense in each thread regarding this player.

I was shocked when I could queue on my valor 23 shadow. He had legacy gear. But valor 23?! Most players who are rolling a first toon haven't played a single arena at valor 23.

Yeah I mean the guy didn't produce numbers that were beyond the norm. 1200-1300 DPS and of course all the madness sins were producing more it was the fact he could tank damage from 4/5 of us. Who knows maybe the guy is MLG. Maybe he's an author of the cheat engine. Either way, I'd rather him global the 27k sorcs than having TOFNs favourite latex bear speed hacking every wz. Meh. /Thread.

I have a sentinel(Verdurk)/marauder(Smásh). But thanks.

Could be innocent. Could be sinister. Either way I submitted my logs and two guys also sent in some videos so I guess the team will decide themselves.

I will filter out names and the post the full logs tomorrow morning.

I'm looking at games with some top 5 eu players in and this one guy is running around wrecking everyone. It was very suspicious and multiple players said the same thing during the warzone despite not knowing what his numbers looked like. Am I thick or is MORON not using the same GCD as every other soul playing the game? UPDATE: I have more logs, 4mb to be precise if anyone wants to analyse further, UPDATE2: The person in question was not a combat sentinel.

Turns out. That if you turn 55 in a warzone with a hand in before the start of the warzone you can put on all your 55 legacy PVP gear and melt people. Even more hilarious is the fact it lets another person join the warzone. Confirmed this does work in both arena and regular warzones. 5 v 4 arena is the new meta

Two scenarios: 34,088 HP Defence chance: 18.48% Shield chance: 34.66% Shield absorb: 44.30% Willpower: 2195 41,617 HP Defence chance: 20.81% Shield chance: 29.28% Shield absorb: 33.27% Willpower: 1962 Which of the 2 is more beneficial to PVP tanking? With all the dots be thrown around lately I like scenario 2 with the increased shield chance and absorb. Thoughts

It would be the single best thing you could do. Heck, put the thing on the cartel market and call it an intergalactic war pass or whatever. Just do it. Otherwise 2015/2016 will feature a SWTOR post-mortem, the number 1 maybe 2 item on that list will be lack of cross server Q. Git commit -m "cross server technology for PVP" Git push PTS maser ^ please.

For phase walk why not refresh the cool down on recklessness on activation? Only other buff I could think of would be something simple like making your next force lightning usable from 30m and automatically being a critical hit if used within 6seconds. This will ensure that in PVP you can not just stealth and heal to full AND make use of a crit force lightning. That would be OP.

Queue ranked/regular arena as group/solo. Queue regular warzone as group/solo. fixed. /thread.

So 180 hilt/barrel is BiS now? Bolster working as intended. If it's not blue 46 it's something else. At least 180 hilts cost more than 7 planetary comms.

If anyone doesn't already know.

Game is a joke for competitive PVP. Period. Nothing will fix it now. More people go to my local dominos club than play team ranked in this game.

http://www.englishclub.com/reading/

You probably have 20 teams across all servers queuing now. Make what you want of that. People are no longer willing to reroll tank/healer when their current one goes elsewhere. Finding a tank/healer that is of the level required in team ranked and not currently in one is harder than winning a solo ranked match. The investment needed in team ranked is huge, people are no longer willing to put it in. PS being ROFLSTOMPED in team is less fun than the RNG q that is solo ranked. So many things wrong with PVP in this game I give up now. People say the devs don't care. The fact that Linkedin shows 3 developers working on SWTOR is even more hilarious.

Interesting. Maybe you do thing differently over the Atlantic but here in Europe power isn't always king. Majority of top 25 players on TOFN run 25% crit give or take 1%. Majority of bad players stack power surge. 17% crit and 1BILLION power. GL with that.

Unless you're a deception Sin. Or Pyro PT. Or many other classes that have no auto crit built into their skill tree.

Yie Ar Kung-Fu will have a team. More than likely featuring Fiddy + Verdurk and a combination of others. Possibly Stardamon depending on his play time. Shame MVPs haven't picked him up yet.

I'm not asking for that, merely a huge QOL change. The spec will still fall victim to mezzes, knock-backs etc but frankly so it should. You can always spot a bad ravaged player, you know the merc who stands still trying to tracer missile you while being ravaged.
