Post-Bolster changes sure you can PvP naked. Pre-2.0 expertise made a tremendous difference so if you were doing so well without it I really doubt your opponents were wearing it. If you are going to discuss expertise you may want to know what it actually did. Bottom line is that there is zero incentive to PvP for gear at this point. I would love to see the reaction of the community if a bolster type system was implemented for PvE content.
You don't have to believe it then. 1on1 I took people down quick just because PvE naturally will give you a lot of dps in general, that's the way it's built. Expertise negates it a small fraction, but your output is still really high. I was spinning striking people for 6-8k And Shadow strikes were up there as well. PvP gear honestly really means nothing. The only people that think that are the ones that need the advantage. -

hrm. Well to be honest, I did the event when it first came out, and all I needed to do was click on something in fleet, and then go to Ilum. Can't say I ever was exposed to anything involving the gree and quesh that I can remember.Care to enlighten me on the Gree Presence in Quesh?

I guess it would create too many records for the 1977 database keeping track of everything. It's a shame that criticism over a readily agreed upon poor system brings out people that are simply looking for troll snacks.
As has been explained to you in another thread, by multiple people.... this idea is terribad. -
This is a good question. Any answers?
...of pvp gear when you get just as much expertise with pve gear, and better stats? -
Well the fact is until they respond it very well could be true.....
Yes, I'm sure they did it specifically to make people mad.That must be it.
-
Sadistic bastards is my vote. Too lazy to put the objectives somewhere else and not try to force world PvP on a PvE server.
-
I really like the additional content and getting items to either use or RE is not a bad perk. People asked for content....this is new and interesting content
-
While I don't disagree that commendations needed to be streamlined, I still think taking away what people have earned is wrong.
-
No. Read what I wrote.
P2W means that you can lay out real money to get an advantage over other players. If BiS gear, (BoE, BoP or BoL) were sold on the Cartel Market that would be Pay to Win. And it would suck hard vacuum.
But it isn't.
The stuff on the Cartel Market is not stuff that will give you an advantage over other players in the game. It's Pay to Look Pretty. P2LP, if you will. Not P2W.
You forget however, that people are willing to buy much of the "Look Pretty" stuff on the GTN which then translate into in game money which can be used to craft or purchase BiS equipment.
-
"Pay to Win" doesn't mean "Pay to have *****-and-glitter that other people don't have." Pay to Win means "I will buy something that gives me a material advantage over other players and unbalances the game in my favour."
So, how are these CC rep lucky dips P2W, in any way?
So the purchase of ship parts is not out right pay to win? The topic has been discussed and the road to pay to win paved, you need only step on to the path.
-
While I certainly don't begrudge them for trying to make more money the Cartel Market is really starting to grate on me as it really does become more of a pay to win system. "Nickel and Dime"ing is one thing but this feels like they are simply trying to fleece the customers that were buying packs according to the metrics. I am very concerned that the release of the expansion will be bringing an even larger wave of disgust as people realize that they have been virtually robbed, willingly no less.
-
Just another poor fix to keep people from getting through content to the detriment of everyone else.
-
I am not in favor of this type of forced replay of existing content. The development time spent on this could have been aimed at the many numerous and ongoing bugs that continue to plague us on a daily basis. Perhaps a reputation system for figuring out ways around buggy content would be more appropriate.
-
With the upcoming bump in level to 55 should we not get rest exp accumulation turned back on for level 50's? Before 1.2 I believe we still had rest exp at 50, didn't really do much which may be why it was removed. Thoughts?

Ok. since you are so happy, CONGRATULATIONS ! GG MAN, YOU ARE SO GREAT
If, to you, it doesn't make sense, it just shows that you DON'T UNDERSTAND. Nothing more, nothing else and yes, to me it makes sense that some rare individuals, have a better "perception" of stealth.
Again, a character in plain sight ---> agro. If not, you are "too far" and the mob doesn't SEE you. Yes, even if you are at 5m, with a gun, dancing and chatting with your team, he doesn't see you. The agro in this situation is related to VISION. But once you are stealthed, the agro range isn't related to vision anymore, and why on Earth should it be the same ? Do you SEE and EAR at the same distance ? Do you smell things at the same distance ?
This will be my last post in this thread, I'm feeling like it I was trying to explain something to a 4 year old child shouting "NO YOU ARE WRONG".
Probably because to 90+% of the MMORPG population you are wrong. As a stealther I am not supposed to be able to use one of my primary skills in my class missions because we don't want people stealthing by bosses/trash in other content
-
Is there a link to an official comment that this is working as intended? If not then this is just another bug to add to the ever going list of frustrating issues with game mechanics. Stealth detection beyond the range of normal aggro range is wrong. If they wanted to deter people from stealthing past content perhaps they should have the NPC's have increased stealth detection within the area that they would normally aggro someone. My thought is that they tried to do just that and ended up with broken detection.

In Preferences==>Graphics Turn Anti-Aliasing off and the Holograms will be back.

Those are used in Artifice but continue to harvest the nodes because they can also give you fragments which you will use. Sell the color crystals or trade to an Artifice crafter.
-
There is already a system in place to handle people that are AFK. While a during match scoreboard would be nice, you should not be kicking people from a match due to a learning curve. If you want to know that all the players on your team are skilled....make a pre-made PvP team

Just be aware that the items you make now in synth are unmodded when crafted, may have to have an artifice alt

They usually don't post metrics that aren't conducive to supporting the game, so probably not.
