BoredOfMMOS Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 First off the exp you get from a warzone win is equal to that of about 2 side quests but warzones of course take much less time and a quest would only be that short if you skip all the conversations. In theory someone could pvp from 10-50 purely without doing any quests and still be a viable level 50 by having pvp gear then getting carried in flashpoints. Lowering the amount of exp would also be nice but getting rid of it would be the best solution in my eyes. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belialle Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Personally, I would be fine with this. But probably this would cause a lot of tears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sketchyy Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Personally, I would be fine with this. But probably this would cause a lot of tears. as someone who enjoys pvp over pve I would like to see the experience stay. I like to level doing pvp but for those that don't want the experience I think it should be an option to turn exp off for warzones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrynen Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 First off the exp you get from a warzone win is equal to that of about 2 side quests Not true, at all, at least where I'm at atm, lvl 29. It's equal or less than 1 quest, depending on the quest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dezerte Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 (edited) Having PvP give XP gives players alternate ways of earing XP when they want to take a break from regular questing/instancing, so I think it's great. If you don't like it, just avoid it? Edited December 18, 2011 by Dezerte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on what game it is the score of the game the objective Hutball iv capped 6 in one game and got 14k others iv gotten no caps and just 6k Still compared to a quest thats outrageous Edited January 14, 2012 by BoredOfMMOS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mannic Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Option to turn it off would be best solution, IMO. Some people would rather level through PvP and that's fine, IMO. But then again, some people don't want to always be five or six levels above whatever their PvE progression is either. I know I spent a half a day PvP'ing and now I"m level 26 just getting to Nar Shaaddaa with level 21 mobs at the start. I also think we should be able to turn off XP for Space Combat if we want to for the same reason. I like the systems and being able to make credits completing daillies and the like, but I don't like out-levelling the zone I'm in. And yes, I could proceed to a higher level zone, but then I'd be skipping content, which I also don't want to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aescseco Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 If you dont want to pvp dont queue for a battleground. Some people actually like to pvp and it should be more of an option than it currently is. Stop forcing people to play like you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirorx Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I love that there is more than one way to gain experience. Let me put it this way, I am rolling a sith inquisitor but next i want to roll a sith warrior. both class quests are diffrent, but the side quests are all the same stuff again as i just did no my sith inquisitor. I just cleared every quest possible on dromund kass and korriban. If i can pvp to gain experience, then i can run the main quest and also do some pvp. Awesome. Sure beats doing the same quests again and again and again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people like to PvP and don't want to get XP from it because they want to have fun without over-leveling a buddy or whatever. I would personally appreciate an option to turn of XP gains for this reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrevan Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 (edited) Agreed with OP. Minimal XP for PvP please, let's not detract from the storyline-focus. PS. I love PvP in WoW and being able to level up through it there, but not here. Maybe it'll work out better if PvP gave XP ONLY on PvP servers, and minimal or no XP at all on non-PvP servers.

Liberate Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Why do you people care how other folks level? Don't touch the Warzone exp! And no, I am not 'abusing' anything, my highest is a level 28. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gratus_Mortuus Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 First off the exp you get from a warzone win is equal to that of about 2 side quests Thoughts? My thought is wondering if we are playing the same game. I'm level 19 and spent hours in PvP; at least 5 today and doubt the total XP I received exceeds 1.5 levels. That is a ton less than I'd get doing quests and/or killing mobs. -Gratus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
