actually, LOTRO mPvP with the keep battles and fights and levels is a very good example of what this game could do to make World PvP interesting.

lololol

Ok so your example, you've gone for alot of Shield gear, and still you only get 50% and 40%, that means 1% shield chance is only worth 0.4% Damage reduction... Even our top tier has 2% shield chance is 0.8% this is worse than tier 2 talents, and much worse than the 8% armor.

This is the worst excuse ever. Why wasn't it in beta? Too afraid to show it I reckon... Mythic hasn't done anything properly since Vanilla DAOC, the first expansion they made, ruined it. I'm guessing whoever knew what they were doing quit a LOOOONG time ago.

I haven't posted a thread in this forum, what are you talking about?

11 bags here, 1 item.

World PvP - Persistent - Towns etc Shadowbane Darkfall Small Scale Arena WoW Warzones None - Least of all anything Mythic

Mythic designed pvp in this game, nevermore mythic.

Empire outnumber Republic 10 to 1 in pvp. You can only fight empire in Hutball.

No one fights on Ilum, we just right click to win. 6 people are sitting in a ring, 3 sith 3 republic. No one wants to fight, just right click the objectives to get their weekly done. This is what END game world pvp is to you Mythic? This is worse than Warhammer online... EA's PvP experts, mythic. Shouldn't be allowed to touch PvP games at all.

The warzones design are such that there is only 1 thing happening at one time. This makes the match very one sided. If you look at other games, there's many things happening at once, so that induviduals might have fun and win even though in the end. His team loses. Look at Arathi Basin, forexample many small fights that are fun. Several things happening at the same time. Voidstar, only 1 thing happening. Same with huttball. Makes for one sided games..

Standing around fleet waiting for members is really boring. Only Flashpoint runs that are being done are with guildies atm. SWTOR's tools and UI feels like a game from the 1990s. And you won't allow people to help you with this obvious problem with mods. It's gonna take years for this game to catch up at this pace...

What kindof spec are you running with that? Just a full PvE spec or?

I've been avoiding Shield Rating and Absorbation because they are multiplied with eachother to give the end effect. Thus you need ALOT of it for it to be any good.

Dinged 50 today and been gathering tank gear for PvPing up until now. I think I've been wrong and will start gathering DPS gear even for PvP Tank spec. This is normal with other classes like Guardian and Shadow but haven't been much discussed for Vanguard / Powertech. Do you wear DPS gear in PVP if you're Tank spec? Only DPS some pieces? Wich Tank pieces do you avoid and replace with DPS etc. I try to avoid Shield Rating and Absorbation, and exchange those for DPS slots instead. Works pretty well for me.

I agree with OP, playing with low level friends, having an active queue, no dead brackets while leveling up etc. Just tweak the bolstering system, don't give into the people that are afraid of anything innovative ;P

2 factions always suck for PvP, no good pvp games use 2 factions. It's either 3+ or FFA. Because 2 faction always lead to imbalance and sucky world pvp.

umm the level 50 version HAS no biochem requirment and is reusable. Retarded design by BW imo....

I disagree, I like it. Love to play with my friends no matter what level they are. Just because other games don't do it doesn't mean SWTOR shouldn't.

His hand hurts, and he has to take breaks. Meanwhile I try to talk some sense into people. I can see this is going to be hard with you. Someone shot your friend, you don't have a right to speak up? Anyway ignore the troll, lets get this game into the current century. It needs innovation badly, and there's ton of people willing to do that innovation for Bioware, without charge.. if they just allow them. Turn macros and addons on asap.

Enrage timer and no DPS meter to prove anything. This is gonna be some crazy drama for Guilds. They need to stop copying other games while not copying the things that make it work.

My healer friend has had to take breaks alot in this game due to the crappy Raid Frame UI (not to mention the bugs) Even as a DPS it's tediuos. It seems like you made a game that was designed for having macros and custimizable UI (or just copied wow) and then removed that option. Clicking every GCD just to emulate auto attack? Seriously? Spamming the same button so you won't miss the GCD? Repeated Strain Injuri anyone? This game needs Macros and Addons fast, because Bioware has showed themselves unable to do any innovation on this crucial part of the game. Atleast I got a logitech keyboard with macro keys and can code AutoIt scripts, but it just sucks for everyone else. And it's a pain to make scripts for your whole guild ;P

Would be very interesting to know the amount of damage % we give up for survivability, both for gear and spec. But bioware keeps forcing us to play like it's 2005 with no mods etc .. cause it will ruin the story ;P

The drop in performance is very normal once people get closer to 50, many find ways to compensate for this. Getting bigger guns is very popular, or just wait it out. I hear it gets better after 50
