foxmob Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 well...the pvp gear is free. just pick up the recruit set from the pvp quest terminal. so given that fact...yeah, I could see ppl voting to kick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darpvaida Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Because it is given to you when you ding 50, the other 7 people on your team are there to have fun and hopefully win.you are essentially leaving them 1 man short and while you are still in group you cannot be replaced with a player capable of contributing.

Dissentus Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I just got kicked from PvP because i don't have PvP gear... You can still play WITHOUT the gear i just wanted to play for fun. If you want to play for fun, just stay in lowbies bracket. Best advice I can give you. As for getting kicked? If it was a warzone, that means you did nothing. If you are actively in combat, you will not be kicked, as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishtim Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I just got kicked from PvP because i don't have PvP gear... You can still play WITHOUT the gear i just wanted to play for fun. If you play at level 50 get PVP gear, it's not just you you're hurting it's your team without expertise you will get ripped to shreds very easily which makes you more of a liability than an asset to the whole team Every character gets a free set of recruit PVP gear as of 1.3 so there is no excuse playing without it. If you sold the token instead buy recruit gear with your own money or people in PVP will not like you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PvP without PvP gear would probably NOT be fun anyways. Most likely they did you a favor cuz you would die... fast. And a lot. IDK about you but I hardly find getting owned constantly fun. PvP gear is there for a reason... at least pick up your recruit set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountPain Posted July 24, 2012 Author Share Posted July 24, 2012 Ok if you have armour that is not pvp people don't like you why? because it does not have the expertise stats and people prefer that. SO WHAT you don't have it... Big deal? i think not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irishtim Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 the pvp gear just doesn't look good on my toons i wear rakata i prefer that over pvp gear any day *facepalm* you may prefer Rataka but the rest of your team certainly don't. Seeing as you seem to be a PVE player let's put it this way if you could have an ops with the entire group geared in Rataka, or an ops where all but one guy are in Rataka and the other guy is in levelling greens. which would you prefer?

SO WHAT you don't have it... Big deal? i think not People here do not understand what it is "play for fun". They can not understend either that moving your character from here to there, shooting stuff in specific looking gear could be way more relaxing that smashing your keybord in attempts to win by all costs.

Elkirin Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Just engage in combat each time a vote kick is issued. I would prefer you to be wearing full recruit at least but to demand it when i am not wearing full WH remodded and augmented to max min perfection would be hypocritical.

UGLYMRJ Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 And besides i have fun with or without the gear thats the only reason i play is to have fun Isn't it more fun to win? to be competitive? If not then maybe this isn't the game for you. I'm sure you can find one more suited for what you're looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidichIorian Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 And besides i have fun with or without the gear thats the only reason i play is to have funDont mind them. I have been in plenty of games with people with no expertise and never have I expereinced anyone being kicked so it's hopefully a rare thing. Just play and you'll eventually get enough comms for BM gear. Pull the BM mods and put them in something better looking, that's what I did.

KBSIP Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 without expertise you will be dealing about a flat 20% less damage and taking a flat 20% more. add this on to the 30% reduction from incoming taunts, and your effective damage rating against a team utilizing taunts effectively is 50% of your potential, NOT including enemy mitigation. base mitigation against pretty much every non armor pen attack, when properly buffed, is at least 10%, so in addition to only haveing 50% of your base damage you knock another 10% off of that. the fact is you're occupying a slot that could be quickly filled by someone who at least has the courtesy to use their recruit gear. in addition; vote-to-kick only works if you aren't actively engaging in combat, or something similar. its there to remove AFK players, not undergeared noes, so you would have only been kicked if they managed to organize the team to vote you out AND you weren't contributing to the fighting.

You would deal 20'ish % more damage and live 20'ish % longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloydlrving Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 To awnser the question since BW decided to make people that have more experience and play often pvp on SWtor gotta pwns newbies because they didn't play enough to grind their own gear .Also it allow most players to tell you "L2P" while they don't even know how to play themself. Good luck with pvp OP but sadly even if the system suck you won't go far without a gear with expertise (even if you're going to camp respawn with your recruit gear). Have fun.

Jump in a WZ naked if you want and you're having fun. I'm just saying there are games out there more suited to your play preference. But I'll also say that most MMO's have a competitive community and the gear makes a substantial difference. Most people are not going to want you on their team without PvP gear. That's just the way it is. I don't care how you play... you have the right to do what you want... but I also have the right to vote you off of my team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
