iraqcombatvet Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Medals are now worth 500 Valor and 10 Commendations. Players only earn Valor and Commendations for the first 4 medals earned each match. *UPDATED 2/28* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dystopic Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Battlemaster has not been worth anything since the imp ilum farm fest and kill trading. Get over it. This is coming from a battlemaster republic sage seer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPagano Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 (edited) Nerd News Alert: Battlemaster never meant anything! It is only correlated with time spent playing. In no way does battlemaster even imply a K: D ratio greater than 1. It's directly proportional to time. That's it.

Kabaal Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Assuming that is the only valour or commendations you can earn per match after the patch you do realise it's only 1600 valour vs the current 1500? Big change Even if it's slightly more it's hardly the end of the world, i was BM within the first few weeks of the game and it took hardly any work, heck 59-60 was in one day.

Dekai Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Pretty much agree with others who posted in the thread. Battlemaster never has meant anything other then time played. It is in no way related to skill, nor are the other titles from Valor. And yes, I'm above Battlemaster, without doing Ilum. Warzones were more fun for me then zerging around on a laggy planet that was poorly designed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbowsin Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Granted people will get to Battlemaster faster than it took you to get to it, but this applies to everyone. I know they don't have anything currently for the ranks above BM but this means that you will get to those sooner as well. Be happy with your achievement and stop fretting how other people get theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if you discount the ilum kill trading and the free battlemaster imps got from the first patch change to ilum the medal disparity between tank DPS, pure DPS and healers meant battlemaster means nothing.

Yeah, because it's REALLY REALLY hard to get Battlemaster. You must be the only BM on your server. You, sir, are the best player in the world.

Have been since the start of January, i take it you are afraid of non gear based PvP? The sooner everyone is BM the more competitive the matches and fights will be IMO.

Voqar Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 It wasn't worth anything to begin with. The pseudo PvP ezmode in this game doesn't justify any rewards or titles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not understanding what we're saying. None of us care about it. We wouldn't even use the verb "accomplishing" as you have here. I, for one, accomplish actual things in the real world. I play games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whose to say he wasn't a killtrade exploiter or took advantage of things in Ilum that broke and had to be quickly hotfixed? Please. People who made it to BM that fast, especially those who were of the mentality that they would do it that way in the first place, wanted to get there super fast so they could melt everyone else's face and tell themselves it meant they were super skilled hardcore gamer masters. They're not, and it makes them feel very very threatened when they think the game might make it easier or quicker for people to catch up to them and start proving it.

He already admitted to playing a vanguard and we all know how easymode medals are for tanks and currently medals give 50 valor each I think.

OldSwab Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 10k from 60 valor. Just fine with the change. Looking forward to getting my gear w/out so much randomness. The sky has not fallen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
