Vetorept Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) Rakata Stims and Med Pacs require Biometric Crystal Alloy, which is a standard raid drop or HM Flashpoint drop. I spent 2 days and 250k to level Biochem from 1-400 because Synthweaving is useless and I never used it. Now I find out that I can't make the only 2 items I planned on using since I am a pvp'r. I haven't done any flashpoints and am not in a raid guild. I find killing NPC's trivial and boring. Now I'm sure someone will say: just hop in a pug HM, but how many of those and how many rolls will I have to do to get my alloy? Too many. To have this crafting item locked behind PVE penalizes pvp'rs I feel. You can be sure that if there were a necessary crafting item locked behind PVP the pve'rs would be howling mad. Make them available for an insane amount of commendations, I don't care, there needs to be a pvp path to these. As much as I hate it when people bring up that other game, orbs and such that were needed for crafting were able to be bought with marks, aside from being PVE drops. Please consider this Bioware.

MrTijger Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Its a PvE game with PvP, not a PvP centric game. Also, 90 second recharge on half a health bar is OP imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lerdoc Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) So you expected purple quality item that is exclusive for a craft user BOP only and tier 3 quality to be crafted just like that when you reach 400 skill? Really? I mean... Really? What did you played before? WoW? don't the bagged pvp pots give near if not more than that much anyways? About 30% of what rataka medpack gives.

Dude, this is not a PVP game. PVP was an afterthought in this game. Go to another game if you are only interested in PVP. The PVP in this game is very weak.

Phinion Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Read the test forum update they are nerfing the medpack. It is under patch notes 1.1. I think there are two sets of notes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phinion Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 But otherwise I agree with you, there should be a PVP way of attaining the item. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want the stim that persists through death more than anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PVP in this game is very weak. And you would be screaming like a banshee if something you needed for your prof was locked behind say, a week long pvp grind. Which would amount to what it would take me to pug flashpoints and win a roll for this alloy. Sure I might get lucky and win alloys on my first rolls but we all know about RNG in this game.

Vetorept Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 bang on the money! well said Um, have you glanced at the forums? At all? I haven't seen any topics/ discussion about the boss in Hard Mode BT, I haven't seen any discussion/ topics about Karagga's Palace. PVE is a napfest. There are a great many topics/ discussions about pvp, which is a big part of this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
