yukirshiro Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 There is no reason whatsoever to have a system where people can join warzones without sprint. It just gimps whatever team they end up with so much. All 3 warzones in this game are designed around getting to objectives in the least amount of time possible. Not having sprint is just too much of a disadvantage. This is just a basic quality of life change there is no real argument against. It doesn't help anyone to force people to wait to 13 for sprint but let them enter WZs before that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redmarx Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Probably fair. I see no reason not to, sprint is a big QoL improvement for every class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rheeling Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 I would hope that one of the currently useless Legacy levels would let your characters sprint at level 1 in the near future. That would be much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evuke Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 (edited) sprint shouldn't be level 10, it should be level 1. not having sprint is painfully slow, there's just no need to put players through that punishment for 13 levels it also shouldn't be called sprint, it should be called "walk a little less ridiculously slow" Edited February 29, 2012 by Evuke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bamajawn Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 (edited) I've always wondered why we had to walk at all. I was on an alt last night and walked around a small area for a bit making kills for sport rather than have to walk a long way for missions. For the first few levels, this actually works well.

Twor Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 (edited) Only trollable threads get lots of interest. Threads, where the broad majority agrees on the topic- and its safe to say, that everyone does- won't get so many replies. You should have put in a combination of Nerf Tracer/Sorc/Fruitcakes in the topic for that. Putting that runbuff at level 1 would be great, I felt like a snail and since we're in the PvP forum, PvPing before getting sprint is really really tiresome.

Dakan Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Not having sprint at level 1 is nothing more than a time sink. I always found it hilarious that I can force leap enemies before I can run fast. Just remove it as trained "ability" all together and increase our movement speed.

yukirshiro Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 That would be fine with me too but there's obviously a reason they didn't do that. But there's no reason to put it off to 13 rather than 10 even if you want to put it off a few levels. And lots of reasons why putting it off to 13 is bad from a PVP perspective.

jibboo Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Either that, or don't allow access to warzones until level 14 (14 is the level you get spring btw). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spymaster Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 I agree with the OP. Level 10 sprint is a good idea for PvP and PvE (Since level 10 is when you get to the big cities and really need it the most anyway). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkfreudHC Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 To you people asking that sprint be put in at level one: Why not just get rid of sprint and globally boost running speed? One less ability to crowd the bar... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One less ability to crowd the bar... For some of the more tricky datacrons, disabling sprint and moving at "normal" speed is better. Also sprint only works out of combat so globaly boosting running speed wouldn't work all too well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rykke Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 To you people asking that sprint be put in at level one: Why not just get rid of sprint and globally boost running speed? One less ability to crowd the bar... It's so there's a difference between in-combat and out of combat speed. Still is ridiculous that it's at 14. It's painful to go through the first planet on a new alt without sprint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamanous Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 It isn't even just early level warzones. It is outright annoying having someone you group with for pve (world or first flashpoint) suddenly burst ahead of you everywhere and you do nothing but play catch up. Sprint should be offered the instant you hit level 10 and head to station to pick your AC. 14 is tedious and frustrating especially when creating alts and the pre-25 speeder play style restriction.

If I remember correctly there is a "walk" key, isn't there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bovinity Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 My god you people are lazy. How long does it take to level to 14.... seriously? Not long, but I do understand their point. Specifically in regards to PvP, you can queue for warzones at 10, but you don't get what is possibly the most important, universal ability until 14. It also makes sense since 10 is when you leave your small newbie world and start moving out into larger areas. It's not worth freaking out over, but it would make more sense to just give it at 10.

But personally, I would nerf the *#&$# out of green candied cherries. Also, I would love to get sprint at level 10. *Learn to enjoy fruitcake. At least homemade fruitcake, soaked with rum and topped with whipped cream. Mmmmmm...you're doing it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fungihoujo Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I dunno about level 1... but level 10 for sure, that, or don't let people join WZ til level 14. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
