  1. Overall I think you guys are on the right track. At least when it comes to the ranked changes and faster gearing, etc. We really do need some new PvP maps. I would love to seem some variant maps like you did with huttball. A different version of Novare Coast would be really enjoyable for me. I would suggest enabling 8 vs. 8 for solo ranked again. If the population increases, it would give classes like DPS Mercs/commando's a place to shine and with the 2018 requirement no one would be in PvE gear. It could make for some pretty close games. Make these changes quickly, and hopefully merge servers with low populations so queues pop quickly, and I think you'll see PvP rebound quickly.
  2. Without even talking about the lack of balance/content. I have to say, I like these changes. It'll increase participation and make ranked less painful. Especially when your group is strong with the derp side of the force. My question is this: When do we see these change get made? Sooner the better Bioware.
  3. Here's mine : http://www.swtor.com/user/ce/3x21r
  4. Hope they hot fix it tonight or tomorrow morning. Just went into a WZ and it was 4 Low Slash Shadow's. Nothing but stuns. All it did was make everyone log out and not bother doing anymore WZ's for the night.
  5. Just out of curiosity, do we get off-hand weapons like vibroblades, generators, etc? That would be a nice perk.
  6. I think you have to have a rating of 1625 for all 3 reward sets/titles. I could be wrong, but that's what it looks like.
  7. I've done 4 group ranked games since the season started and my rating is 1286. I think you'll be okay pugging group. OR you could just yolo queue till you hit 1350 and get the reward you want.
  8. I'll have to see when we can get everyone on for it. Schedule's tend to not align these days. Soon, is the best I can say atm.
  9. Also remember, it was double XP weekend and a lot of people were leveling alts. Can't blame them really, leveling is such a drag usually. I even leveled my Commando up for something different.
  10. This is the truth. Sad part is, I'd like to do more ranked on my Sorc, but unfortunately Imp side queue is filled with players in PvE gear and playing weak classes. Not that I don't get some of the same on pub side, but it's a lot less. Get your PvP gear FIRST and queue up. Ranked can be fun and yes it can be hell when you get a terrible team, but it's yolo, that's just how it is.

    Arena Report

    A Op with 3 smashers would be worse. The op could sit in stealth and watch the mayhem till he needed to come out and heal. Which wouldn't be right away, since Mara's have the best DCD's in the game. On top of that, Mercs can still be countered and if they blow their shield to free cast, you just stun them through it. Good players will know to chain interrupt and force reactive shield. After that it's just stun/mezz and refocus once shield drops. I do agree a merc could last that long, but a team with good AoE damage (which all competitive team will have) would neuter a merc healer. Kolto missile and cast heals can not and will not keep up with smash and pressure damage.

    Arena Report

    Very good points OP, I agree with you. Mara's and Operatives need to be tweaked downward. I would say tone down healing, but we can't really do that till Smash gets toned down as well. Right now the reason ops are mandatory isn't just the lack of casting, it's the only healer strong enough to counter Mara damage. On top of that no one can try to affectively focus down a mara, they have several Defensive CD's on a short CD making them impossible to kill quickly. They are by far the best melee DPS, and no class can compare to them on DPS, Defense, and Utility. Sadly, I don't think Bioware will change anything major. BTW, I agree, Sorc Lightning has some nasty burst and so does Merc Arsenal. The thing is, they cane be easily focused or interrupted. So there's a trade off. I really hope Bioware does some balancing. I'd love to be able to play a Merc/Sage heals over my Op in a Arena.
  13. Brobi, I would seriously just stop making this thread. As you can see, we can't have nice things. Now don't get me wrong, I'm enjoying the QQ drama, but this thread and threads like it, don't serve a purpose right now. All they do is bring out the epeen and eflex of Internet nerds. Hopefully "ONE" day, Bioware will implement a actual rank system and season so this will all be pointless. Until Monday when the mods come back, let's see how badly this thread goes down the poop chute before getting deleted.
  14. I don't usually brag, but this was a great game for me. I healed my bum off and want to show off. http://i.imgur.com/FSgkaHm.jpg?1 P.S. Fun game, <WAR> and <Population Control>. I felt like a ping pong half the time, (Force push) but I had great peels.
  15. Good server. Good guilds. Good people. I leave the rest to you, good sir.
  16. Hahaha, you guys need to stop being so sensitive. Bit too much drama on this thread. I LIKES IT! Stop worrying so much and just have fun playing. P.S. Bastion folks seem to like PoT5 forums over their own. Must be boring on that server.
  17. If I get the chance, I'll jump on my Sage (Felora) and heal ya. I'll make you feel like Superman! Working on my weekly/dailies on my imps though. Not sure if it was you, (I rarely looks at names) but I had a game where this Commando would no leave my Sorc alone. Can't a guy heal in peace? Welcome to all the new folks. Haven't heard anyone regretting the move yet. Hope to see you guys in some WZ's, and hopefully rank this Thursday/Friday.
  18. YAY for Conq gear! False, I expect a thread about how premades hack because they focus fire people down. I do wonder what they'll break next. P.S. This is actually good timing. I highly doubted the transfers would've adhered to any kind of "rules" that were established.
  19. I underlined what I think is the most important distinction. TBH, it's a funny (if not silly) coincidence that the 54 PvE gear is so hated, when PvE armoring/mods were being used well before 2.0. I think the real problem people have here, is that 54 gear is better then their conqueror gear. Which I think people have a point with. However, the point of bolster is to even the playing field. Making gear more or less obsolete as the determining factor. Not sure how many recall pre 2.0, but I knew if a game was a win or loss the moment I zoned in. All I had to check was the HP of the players around me. If they weren't 18k+ you had a really good chance of losing. Games were usually a one sided farm fest and truthfully, I prefer todays bolster to the terrible recruit vs. EWH tragedy of yesterday. So in closing, people seriously should just make their character BiS and if that takes PvE gear, PvP gear, or a mix of both, than so be it.
  20. Both sides are pretty much even. I mean the same people tend to play on both sides. Just hope your pugs are better than their pugs.
  21. Minus a few trolls, we actually have a really good community on PoT5. Although, the random drama thread makes for good reading.
  22. Not even surprised. This seems to be the new standard for Bioware. Oh well, I think I might just take a break from the game, or find a guild to do more rateds with. So bored these days.
  23. Just no. I just finished pugging from 5:30 to 8:00 PM (prime time) and won every game on my 55 Sage. I switched to DPS/heals depending on what the group needed and enjoyed myself. We faught Imps each game and kicked butt. Althoough I did get bored guarding the node once or twice. In closing, pugs is pugs.
  24. Funny thing is, sub 55, Pubs seem to dominate most Warzones. On my low level pub, I win 90% of my games. On my Imp toons, I just keep hoping none of the low level Imps make it to 55. They are just so bad. Not sure why Pubs seem to become terrible at 55. It's one of those mysteries of life I guess. I prefer to not pug anymore personally. It's just not worth the headache.
  25. If you guys need some help to get your Ranked team going, feel free to send me a tell in game or something. I can heal for ya on my Operative or pew pew on my Lightning Sorc. ONE day I'll stop being lazy and get my sniper to 55. GL, and welcome to PoT5 when you get here. Hope to see ya in RWZ's.
