The_Old_One Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I thought there was the +Sprint speed legacy perk? Where did it go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APNTerra Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Removed because it would have unbalanced pvp if your enemy could run to an objective faster than you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deewe Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Removed because it would have unbalanced pvp if your enemy could run to an objective faster than you Because it was too complex for them to disable it in PvP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloudwalkerNZ Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Removed because it would have unbalanced pvp if your enemy could run to an objective faster than you Don't see how it would unbalance pvp. Anyone can get this perk right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurtzello Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Don't see how it would unbalance pvp. Anyone can get this perk right? They want Legacy to be entirely optional and not gamebreaking: someone who only does PvP and has no credits to spare couldn't get this perk.

RangerRobEU Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 (edited) Removed because it would have unbalanced pvp if your enemy could run to an objective faster than you Yeah I mean it would be horribly unbalanced if somebody could get something purely based on time spent playing which would give them an advantage in PvP over other players... you know... like PvP gear...

Urael Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Don't see how it would unbalance pvp. Anyone can get this perk right? While that may be true, it would have forced everyone to purchase it to remain competative. This would essentially be come a "tax" on PvPers to play the game their way. To be competative in PvP you would have had to save up to buy all of sprint before PvPing. BW should have just found a way to "disable" sprint while in Warzones.

BW should have just found a way to "disable" sprint while in Warzones. True, but with that thinking, they should have removed augmented gear from PVP warzones and only allow the gear they designate. Just like the legacy perks, not everyone can afford the high costs of getting augments/augmented gear. The easy fair fix would've been to just disable it in WZ's like the rocket boost. It would've been great to have extra sprint while I'm at getting my PVE on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess since rocket boost is like the vehicle mechanic and +sprint is to the avatar stats the two systems are different. It seems to me that perhaps there could have been a "debuff" to speed applied to those with the +sprint only while in zone type = warzone or something like that. *shrug* Just a guess don't really know the engine. And if I could have ever afforded the +sprint perks I too would have loved to have them for PvE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
