Rlizzard Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 I have a couple question regarding pvp gear. I have 1 55 toon that has full obroan gear and I'm almost maxed on ranked and unranked comms. Should I go ahead and start getting the ranked gear? I was told that the current ranked gear will become the unranked gear or tier 1, whatever you want to call it. What should I do? Just wait? Next up for any new 55 alts I have, should I even waist my time buying obroan gear, or should I just wait until the expansion? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will only be a little over a month and you will need to buy all new gear Once you max both comms... You have 2 choices... 1. Buy heaps of extra med packs, but keep your comms topped up 2. "Warning" this may change come 3.0... So no guarantees... Buy pvp weapons from the pvp weapons vender "900" creds... And sell back and buy back every 2 hours of actual game time... Not real time... I currently have 36 across 8 toons... This way you can continue to stock pile your comms so you can buy a lot more gear when you reach 60 in the expansion... In the mean time I would suggest buying some 156-162 gear for when the expansion comes out... Some of us expect this to bolster better than the current pvp gear... Even if they remove the expertise like they did when the max lvl went from 50 to 55 . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feztonio Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 I'd agree you can't ever really go wrong having your comms maxed out when expansion hits. as previous poster said you can always run off the extras on med stims. i hope to have a toon or 2 maxed but it's hard to allocate the time with all the lowbies i can mow through on the 12 x's XP hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teclado Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Obroan and Brutalizer will likely become obsolete. It is possible that they remove the expertise from them when 3.0 hits. We haven't heard anything official yet, but using 2.0 RoTHC as a precedent, these things will likely come to pass. So, buying Obroan or Brutalizer pieces right now is kind of a waste of comms, unless you consider about a month of use to be a good investment. I am saving my comms, and even doing a little bit of saving pvp weapons (and crossing my fingers that they don't do something to void them).

I'd logged out the day before with 1 hour 56 mins remaining on the resale... So it was either a bug... Which would suck... Or they introduced something in the last 48hours and didn't do a server restart Anyone else found this or was it just me?? If they did close the loop, hole then so be it... No real loss to me I guess because I have all Brutalizer gear already... All I really missed out on were extra med packs... But I have a ton of these already .

MooTheCosmicCow Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I was stockpiling weapons on my 55's and my two 54's, but I am going to spend the weapons upgrading gear and in the case of the two 54's I will cash in my stockpiled weapons to get oberon set and some brut peices. Reason is they may do something that makes it so weapons cannot be exchanged when 3.0 hits and if they don't then no big deal I'll have levels 55-60 to save up the weapons again for exchange. Five levels is more than enough time to stockpile all you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
