Apparently they've hired a woman who has a track record of making man-hating femi-nazi comments online...not only that, she doesn't like KOTOR. This game is dead on arrival, especially since its a REMAKE not a remaster...that means an entirely new story from the woketivists PC perspective. For god sake is there ANYWHERE we can go to escape this nonsense?!?!

I wouldn't get too excited. Apparently the story is being completely rewritten by a woman who has a track record of being a man-hating woketivist. Expect more identity politics and lefty philosophy to get shoved down your throat.

Assuming we have the proper population to support both sides...sure. I don't see that happening however.

Madness does have strong single target... >.>

If players are wanting to endlessly spam Warzones, that's fine. But i'm starting to see many of us are bored with Warzones and would like to see some more open world content. Separating the population isn't going to achieve this. If they're all going to be moved to a PvE server, then leave things as they were. People who don't flag, don't die. People who do flag, whether intentionally or not, are fair game. Period. Sorry about all the people who apparently get SUPER upset when they get killed by another player but its most likely your fault you're in that situation in the first place.

I don't understand why ganking was an issue in the first place. PvP problems, PvP solutions.

Tank spec, DPS gear, you're welcome.

The new PVP/PvE instance BS is not doing PvP any favors either. What i'd lke to see is World PvP objectives. Give us a REASON to fight somewhere other than Warzones. Let the bears have their safe-place, whatever, what's done is done. But if they're going to keep this ridiculous change they had better merge the servers so we're not roaming empty planets.

RooRider you're a man after my own heart. If the intention was to merge all the servers then YES this is an idea i could live with assuming that there's actually people to fight. Spamming Warzones gets old, especially if you keep fighting the same premade over and over and over. Ganking has always been a part of PvP. If players can't figure out how to keep themselves out of trouble thats their own problem, not the communities, and certainly not the Devs. But this update currently feels sooooooooooo biased towards the PvE community that its going to give us literally nothing to do other than spam Warzones.

I burst harder with single target as madness than Lightning. You just have to know how to time your procs/heavy hitters to go off in succession. I always laugh at madness sorcs that spam Force Lightning as i rip their face apart before they can react.

A million threads about PvP imbalance over the years. What does Bioware do? Separate the PvE/PvP community because some bads can't understand how flag mechanics work. They're PvE biased, and its sickening. Their PvP population will leave. Releasing an hour of content every 3 months isn't going to keep the PvE community interested either. They're nailing their own coffin at this point.

Mate...just SHHH. Keep your dignity

Exactly, this is beneficial only for PvE characters and those that apparently lack the know-how to avoid flagging. Any way you spin it, the PvP community is NOT to blame, but rather the PvE communities blatant incompetence. This is literally the ONLY MMO that i know of that has put such a measure into effect. It's going to have disastrous results as the population continues to dwindle.

Here's how you fix madness Off healing debuff for speccing DPS Force Barrier CD doubled, duration reduced. However, keep orginal CD and keep original duration if specced heals a Make Sorcs choose between Bubble flash stun or knockback roots, keep phase walk. Put bigger emphasis on their Health leeching abilities for self-healing. Make it so that they HAVE to kill things in order to heal. That may not justify a buff however, but instead encourage them to spend more time killing the enemy than healing allies.

Again, the biggest way to avoid this, assuming my changes were implemented, is to NOT ZAP THE YELLOW NAMED TARGET.
