Yeah if someone sets me on fire while im slicing.. im going to ignore it.

If you do alot of pvp, yes they are worth it because you will cap commendations alot. IMO do this... Get yourself 1 unique champ bag via warzone/merc token trades, bank it till 50. Get yourself the 20 PVP Gear Anytime you reach 900+ coms buy the highest level pvp bag you can. Enough to drop you down to 700 or so coms. (This will stock you up on PVP Heal/Expertise stims). You will get random crappy green item, sell to vendor and profit. Toss in PVP/Healing Stims buying as you need, to keep a good supply. When you near 40 buy a 5 pairs of PVP Level 40 boots, rip all the mods out (32kish to do so for x5 pairs). When you hit 40 yank mods and put in orange gear that doesn't look like crap. Go back to buying junk pvp bags again, selling greens and making extra credits, keeping your healing/expertise stims stocked. When you are almost 50 let your coms stock up again. Only buying PVP boxes once a match if needed to not waste comms you gain. Hit 50, Cap warzones comes and buy champ bags and open one at a time until you are out of comes. From now on save up 800 warzone coms/merc comes and buy champ bags every chance you get. Again, I PVP alot. So I have several stacks of each Healing/Expertise Stim from doing this. They are very useful. The credits add up nicely overtime when coupled with your normal PVP 'paycheck'.

Sounds like damage absorbing/deflection skills to me. I know I can do similar things, stacking up too 3 short defense buffs on myself at times, sometimes I can hold out against 4+ players long enough for people to come to my aid. It doesn't last overly long.

Working as intended and as it should be.

I haven't played a scoundrel (when I play my Smuggler it will be Gunslinger). But I can tell you, do not judge a class in the low to mid levels, there are many abilities that come into play much later in the game, early to late 40's that make the AC. Hang in there.

What irritates the hell out of me is Talos would rather pew pew with his pathetic basic attack than heal me. We need to be able to set our companions up to do things ala Dragon Age style. Choosing scenarios and which abilities to use. I also want it so I can turn basic attacks off completely. There have been to many times where I am doing my job, keeping the aggro on me and not my healing companion, yet he just shoots basic attacks when the cooldown on his heals is clear....

I am going to pop in here and again say that we NEED the ability to transfer our existing characters over to the PTS, this way we can accurately help you before patches go live. I would have no qualms over popping over a couple times a week for a couple hours to play around with the new features and test out mechanics to help you, feedback on new ui etc. But I am NOT going to level another character to do it.

Mercenary Arsenal Spec: Can we please get a re-design of the tree? I chose Mercenary because I wanted to use dual wielding pistols, not bending over 5x to stack a buff in what is probably the most boring tactic in a pvp game. Class is based around a dual wield aspect, there should be more of a heavy reliance on pistol attacks. Rockets, flame throwers should be used for sure, but the arsenal spec could really imo use a redesign.

For gods sakes make the GTN an actual GTN. Galactic means galaxy wide, do you devs not understand this? Put republic and imperial auctions into one market please. Don't even tell me to look at the HTN on nar shadda, like maybe 1% of my server population even tries to use that. Merge all the auction markets into one and put terminals on every planet. Hell, allow us to search, list and make purchases from our ship, for gods sakes last I checked this was a scifi game? I can already do this stuff in real life from my damn phone people!

Yeah they are all light armor. Also I love the loadscreen that says "Earning social points grants you access to better equipment" (I know that's not exact) What it should say is "Earning social points grants Inquisitors and Consulars access to unique looking moddable gear"

Bioware please nerf all classes. Make them all the same. I want 3 skills per class. You can name them different things, but I want them to do the same thing. For ranged I want shoot, kick, stun For melee I want swing, kick, stun Making every class the same exact thing should clear up all the 'nerf this' threads... then again, even if something as stupid as the above did happen, we would still have morons in here asking for nerfs. Oh, great job ruining the Assassin btw, probly one of the few classes that didn't seem overpowered when I played it or when I fought them in pvp. /thumbs up (I have a smiley face sticker for you guys)

This is even worse when you consider how friggin time consuming getting daily/weekly pvp missions done when the game has become PVB (Player vs box) to gather armaments.

BioWare: To all you still trying to gear up ::Kick to the Groin::

Fellstar

At this point I would rather go into a pvp match or an open pvp zone and have stats from all gear null and void while in these areas. Have it be all skill and strategy based. Allow token/commendation drops as usual. Make all gear rewarded from this orange gear with really cool/unique styles/looks. Unique mounts, titles, companion customization etc.

How about hosting a live Q&A on youtube or something so more people can be involved and money doesn't need to be wasted to attend in this event?

This is actually becoming pretty comical now.

There is nothing to be done to stop me from quitting when I quit. Because I rarely do it Really the only time I quit is if I have lost track of time and have something to do or something important came up. In that case I am betting quitting than standing afk taking up a team spot.

In the last decade of playing MMO's I have always found it amusing when people resort to the kiddies and parents paying for their subs. I have come across more adults acting like children than actual children in these games. These games are full of ADULTS with the mentality of children. Anyways... The only issue I see with this tactic is the fact that apparently you don't score most of the time, even tho you were pulled across the line. I say have BioWare implement it (may take 20 patches) so being pulled up to the other teams dugout in huttball gives you a score no matter what before you die. That will cutdown on it being abused once people realize whats going on, then it can still be usable for if you are being spawn camped to try and break free.

I would say this is more classic Mythic than BoiWare lol

No don't need this lol. Everyone makes a mistake and once and awhile hits the wrong ability during a warzone match, it happens. Move along, there is no need to make cloak not work. Be more careful in the future.

You should not have to hoard bags at all. You should be allowed to open any bag of any level, if you get a piece of gear that you can't use yet, then you can bank it. Its complete BS that people who are working for their valor/ranks are screwed over by people who are constantly using exploits and system loopholes to gear up. BioWare, allow us to open bags BEFORE we hit 50. This way we at least have a chance at having a few pieces of gear when we enter the bracket, if you don't people will just once again roll a new character until they hit 50 and repeat that.

Ilum should be flagged as an exhaustion zone until they can fix it. Instead they continue to allow crap to run rampant and unchecked while it continues to do harm to the game. Typical rookie mmo mistake, leave stuff up and work on the fix, where anyone with experience would know it should have been locked down while the fix was worked on. /shakes head in disgust

Lost me at (OPS OP arguement). We all know they are OP and they are being fixed. Classic case of judging a game way to early, MMO's rarely are at their best the first few months of release. But too each his own, I enjoy it, so let him go enjoy whatever he wants.

Oh and FYI, I am a mercenary and I am not defending this just because its my class. I cannot stand the f act arsenal spec is so friggin dependant on tracer missile, it is a crappy boring tactic that is unfortunetly needed to place that spec right, I wish I actually liked pyro cause I would go that route, but I hate it more than having to spec around tracer. IMO, I would LOVE to see arsenal redone so that tracer had a longer cooldown and buff stacking for that spec done different way. As a advanced class with 2 guns, GUN attacks should have been the main focus of the build. In the 10-49 bracket you could argue its OP'd. But honestly even then its not , the problem is the 10-49 bracket people are still learning and most people ignore the BH missilers. I actually cringe in sub 50 warzones because I know my team is likely going to ignore that BH up there. Once you get to 50 good luck. The second the whining noise of tracer missile goes off every character with a pull or leap ability is on your *** instantly and you can do very little with your one knockback.
