xdvesper Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 This post is laughable. Its so wrong it hurts my eyes. As a fresh 50 with blues and 48-50 armaments and a lv 50 weapon I was doing 400-1K damage vs people hitting me for 3.5K-5K. This is like at minimum a 3:1 difference in damage output and defense. and while the stat increases might yield a 15% difference, the 400 expertise puts all that over the top. Congrats on being bad. If you're expecting a 300% increase in damage done by wearing PVP gear, you're in for a nasty surprise. I'll do you a favour and tell you to just quit PVP now before you waste your time. You won't see a 300% damage increase. As I said, do the math. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badlander Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I did fine as a new 50. Got BM like 6 days ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gryhmr Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) You did it wrong. I have a friend in full centurion gear and he dinged 50 a week ago. His first day he was in 4 pieces of pvp gear. saved 1000/1000 + extra bag in inventory + dailies on ding day = gear enough to contribute Edited February 22, 2012 by gryhmr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DraegaSilverwolf Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I'm tired of trying to grind up gear. I can't get anything because I can't win a warzone. I know I'm kind of a newb when it comes to pvp, but out of 20 matches my team has won maybe 3. This is highly discouraging to try to get any pvp gear from dailies.

AKfourtyseven Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Since hitting 50 as a marauder I've noticed that regardless of what I do in a warzone, I'm fairly useless. Yes, a fresh 50 is totally useless in PvP. Just to test the difference when my Jugg alt hit 50 i did 3 WZs in normal gear. I could only get 4 or 5 medals and i was getting completely destroyed. I opened my 6 bags, did my Ilum daily and weekly, then grinded WZ daily and weekly. The problem was instantly fixed. Dont let people fool you, skill only matters in lvl 50 PvP once gear allows it.

glenbruton Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Welcome to gear grind PvP.... the cheesiest PvP there is. It's like a 2 dollar pizza. You buy it, eat it, and then regret it for the rest of your life. I dont think id regret a pizza for the rest of my life unless it killed me.

StalkerYuno Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Do some HM/raids. expertise is overrated. there was a guide somewhere explaining how pve gear is optimal for maras. currently almost valor 60 with about 225 exp and i do just fine..not even where i wanna be with gear setup yet.

Caeliux Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) Exactly. I hit 50 with 1 valor. It was before the bag change and it took me 3 weeks or so to get decent gear. Now people are getting it in a week. No one wants to work for anything anymore... ^ /end the next 1000 threads about this topic.
