Asnine Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 You could only PvP and leave every sc before it ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bracosius Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Yeah, that way you can park at 49 and bully all the lowbies. Seems much better then forcing you to 50 and pvp being a challenge for you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threskov Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Yeh, keep bullying lower levels.... lol. You dont want to get to 50 because you will get owned, guess what, those 10-48 dont want to fight eternal lvl 49 either. Level and take it like a man.

Jestunhi Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I laugh so hard every time anyone refers to anything in this game as a grind. I remember when MMO's used to have real grinds, not these "a few weeks to cap and best pvp gear" strolls in the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vlaid Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Just leave the warzones before they end. Honestly, I can't even take PVP that seriously right now. Why not make a 49 and abuse people for a while, it's all the 50 warzones are pretty much. New 50's getting abused for weeks I haven't done it yet, but with how much of a joke pvp is now with ilum swapping, ilum aoe kill trading, valor exploits in general, bugs, imbalances between factions, win trading warzones, ect, ect ect.....you just can't take it seriously.

cronpants Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 you just can't take it seriously. You mean have fun? i agree.

I enjoy instanced pvp and fair skirmishes on ilum, and i've been 50 for quite a while. Being vocal does not equal being majority. If everyone who liked the pvp posted a thread each time they wanted to pat bioware on the back, the forums would likely be flooded. Ok, a tad bit of sarcasm in the latter bit, but i do really enjoy the end-game pvp myself, but i was also an early 50, so i've never had gear-issues. My tip is to try it out, if you don't like it just try a new class/story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do get something, they are called Centurion Commendations. If you are getting tired of premades, make one yourself.

So your level 24 and already know level 50 pvp isn't fun? I heard schools stopped teaching people to think for themselves but thought it was an exaggeration. Crazy idea, how about you get to level 50 and decide for yourself what's fun instead of taking Internet forums as gospel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard schools stopped teaching people to think for themselves but thought it was an exaggeration. Crazy idea, how about you get to level 50 and decide for yourself what's fun instead of taking Internet forums as gospel. People who play a ton of MMO's.....after a while they tend to forget. MMO's are supposed to be fun. They are a game afterall. Do you think it's *really* worth it for the kind of PVP in this game, to spend weeks having absolutely no chance doing Warzones, getting slaughtered by every scrub in champion/BM gear? If my main hadn't rode the wave of gear/valor with the first wave of 50's, I would absolutely loathe 50 pvp. I can not blame a single person who refuses to do it for not. It's atrocious the way MMO's handle gearing up for PVP. GW2 may be the first MMO to do it right. By making gear not matter in PVP. Not to mention that it starts to make Warzones 100% decided by the lotto system of who gets more geared 50's on their team, and who gets more random new 50's with 10k health.

Internicio Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I enjoyed pre-lvl50 quite a bit I didn't like lvl50 at first (probably due to getting stomped too easily) but as soon as I upgraded my gear (Auction + pvp dailies/weeklies), lvl 50 became a ton of fun Ilum is a little dead - had one day of about 6-8 v 6-8 in the center that was very nice, however (I bet we got almost as much valor and progressed toward our daily/weekly as trading kills AND we got to play and have fun) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mintawno Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Just curious, do you pay attention to what your opposition is comprised of when you pvp? Have you encountered a Premade? How about a Premade of only level 49's? Do you enjoy pvping at 24 if you were against one of said Premades? At 50 the likelyhood of going up against a Premade is much higher. That's why you see a lot of complaining. Unfortunately, it is easier to click solo queue into a warzone than to get a group of 8 people together and queue as a group. I can understand why you like pvp at 24. I, however, having PVP'd at 50 can not PVP at a lower level, or at least at a level where I don't have all my tools available to me for PVP. That is why I prefer PVP at 50. Do I hate losing? Absolutely. But I have fun in the fact that I now know what to expect when I PVP, and what I need to do to become more competitive. Personally, if I didn't see a battlemaster (I'm only a Duelist) and feel like I needed to get better gear to compete, then I wouldn't pvp (because gear is one piece of the puzzle, not the only piece).

Orangeaccord Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 You do get something, they are called Centurion Commendations. If you are getting tired of premades, make one yourself. You get 3 commendations per bag without a piece of gear and buying even a single piece of your set gear costs ~30 commendations. That's 10 bags for a piece. Lets say you get 80 wz commendations per game so that's 10 games for a bag. So you are telling me 100 games for 1 piece of gear sounds resonable? Maybe you get lucky and see a couple usable pieces of champion tokens in those 10 bags, but that leaves you short on commendations to even buy starter gear. The whole system really just doesn't make sense as far as upgrade paths go in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunslinger Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 yeah, I totally don't know where anyone would get the idea that 50 WZs are no fun. surely not on this forum. /sarcasm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
