Yes! At this point PVP success becomes skill dependant and not gear dependant. That is how it should be. Think about it, in any sport, profession, hell life itself, success is based largely on skill. Not who has the newest skates. As far as the people quitting, I will sub another account just as a big **** you to all the crybaby whiners complaining about newb 50's not having to "work" for their gear.

If you honestly believe that playing a video game is work, then it should be no surprise the the US economy is ****ed.

If it bothers you that much quit. How about you go to Ilum to kill other players? You know like it was designed for. If everyone is BM there will be less circle jerk fight clubbing going on. If you need a carrot on a stick to play the game, get a job or something. Also Bioware/Lucas Arts and EA are all multi-million dollar corporations. If they piss away some money making a casual and fun game that almost everyone can enjoy how can that possibly be a bad thing?

If Arsenal had an interupt and/or a chainable instant snare I would be nigh unstoppable.

We have outlaws den where anyone can kill anyone and everyone refuses to use it. Once the farming is shut down in Ilum the potential on that planet is huge. But ya the OP and his elite band of top notch "pvprsP can't find anything to do:rolleyes:

Let's all get BW to impliment player bounties. Then the whiners will really have something to carry on about. Entertainers too!

Badly written journalism does not prove anything. It is not an exploit. The empire is being resorceful and making hay while the sun shines. I'd rather they stopped the infernal speed hacking in warzones than revamp Ilium.

Bad PvP players are bad PvP players, their drastic gear advantage will only last until the rest of us catch up. Less QQ more pew pew.
