Ellindis Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 It's absolutely atrocious, I'm level 41, I que for a WZ and literally my WHOLE team is level 11-20 while the other team is mixed with a few 30's, one 49 and some 20's or so. It's absolutly ridiculous that bioware could even IMAGINE that this bracket would work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravoss Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 And you being 41 and them being 10-20 is bad because? This was a great step. Champions gear< greatly increases the difficulty in pvp for those not 50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wabbajackthehutt Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 worked fine for me, and most every one else in the game . what people usually have a problem w/ is the level 50 bracket. which i'm positive you will not have any problem w/ what so ever...i swear!

Srqt Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 So? I was on my alt the other day (lvl 12 at the time) and someone on my team was raging about how many low levels we had in huttball. I told him to chill and we ended up trouncing the team of 30s and 40s that we played. Bolster works just fine and you have all the real key abilities you need once you hit lvl 10. WZs are objective based and can be done by low levels with no problem. Instead of raging when you see lowbies actually play and work with t hem and you will be just fine.

stephenjohnp Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Not an issue for me to be honest. So long as they know how to play they are usually good for the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valencee Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I recently rolled a sith healer, I am getting plenty of MVP votes and winning WZs, I am lv12+! But sure, higher level have more abilities to CC/escape/heal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brickabrack Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) I think it's fun as hell. Using a level 15 character I've killed level 40's solo in WZ's, it's not that hard. Talk about ego boost let me tell you. But hey, that's me. I don't think they will break up the level brackets until they enable cross server queuing. It's more important that people actually get to play in PvP than worry over much about level differences, imho. If you don't like the uncertainty, you could always queue up with your guildmates so you know going in what at least half your team is capable of. If you don't have guildmates it's fairly easy to find a guild after a bit of searching. Edited February 15, 2012 by Brickabrack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binaris Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 You sir are short sighted. The huge bracket is the only solution to <50 pvp queue times. Now i can understand your frustration with level differences but the fact of the matter is this. You can either have the level difference, or wait in a queue for hours and never actually get to pvp before 50. On a side note, they should really disable group queue for pre-50 pvp to prevent people from exploiting the weakness of this solution. But at the end of the day id rather play with 10-20 then not play at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking you're the only one that has an issue with the bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space_Gimp Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I don't like lvl 10-14s in my pvp matches on my team. They don't have a whole lot of skills and are at more of a disadvantage than other levels only because they don't have the skill tree points and trained skills. I love this style of pvp though.

It's absolutly ridiculous that bioware could even IMAGINE that this bracket would work NO. Problem is that this game doesn't have ANY team balancing system included. If match-making system would care about composing teams of roughly equal strength than it would work perfectly. But besides that - if you get a proper team - this bracket works perfectly and currently is most fun part of PvP in entire game. Bracket is fine. Broken game isn't.

KittyPrawn Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I don't necessarily have a problem with it... I could see them breaking it up maybe once more into sub 25 and over 25. But, then servers with lower populations would have trouble finding matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShaneW Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) I've done quite well in PvP throughout my leveling process. Higher levels are more powerful, but if you know what you are doing and actually employ some teamwork you can do just fine at lower levels. I think it's better the option is there than simply not have it. The only thing I can think of is the system should try to group players together by level and valor in attempt to keep people of similar progress with each other. Huttball needs some balancing done in any case, but it suffers the most from underleveled players because they lack key abilities. Being good only helps so much there. A good chunk of the team being low level in Huttball is a considerable handicap. Edited February 15, 2012 by ShaneW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xyloh Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) I like the system as is... Most players that complain... entered pvp before 20 and then turn around and complain about others doing the same thing when they get higher level. As there is no expertise really before 50 and everyone scales to 49 with the Bolster buff, I don't see this as an issue. I have seen level 18 troopers stomp 48 inquisitors... player skill > player level imo Besides, if you're in your 40's you don't have long till you're in the 50 bracket and this point will be moot.
