Relics in sub 60 pvp after 3.0

I have a question, sorry if it's been answered. Didn't see it.

 

How will obroan/brutalizer relics work in sub 60 pvp after 3.0? I ask because I have several 53-54 who I enjoy pvp'ing with. Should I get them to 55 and get their relics or save the coms? If I am in lowbie pvp against 57's with relics that proc in pvp, I could see that being a bid disadvantage.

 

Thanks and I appreciate any information or advice.

They're not changing the relics.

It will make a difference because of the proc, but it's not going to be game breaking. I have several brand new x12 XP leveled 55s that just have the light / dark side vendor relics. I'm going to be doing warzones with them on Dec 2nd. So, if you go up against me, you'll be alright. ;)

 

Personally, I'm not going to waste my comms on soon to be obsolete stuff, even if that means that I won't be optimally geared for a brief period of time while I work towards 60.

 

EDIT: The only reason why I went all the way to 55 on my new toons (rather than stop at, say, 53 or 54) is because of the trainer cost. Notice how the skills at the trainer currently cost zero credits? I am fairly certain that will not be the case when 3.0 hits. I think I read somewhere that they were only making them free for the duration of the x12 XP event. I remember the new skills being expensive, at 50 and 55 in particular.

I've been lvling a few Alts with the 12x XP and have been using LVL 50 relics with augments in pvp... they bolster the best... When I realised how effective this was I decided to test it on one of my other pvp'd geared Alts... I swapped the pvp relic for a LvL 50 blue relic and augmented it... I got a huge increase in stats and my expertise stayed the same... Sure you miss out on the "special" benefits the relics can give, but you do gain higher other stats...

As it is only a week till the expansion I would hold onto those comms... Blue Lvl 50 relics should get you through to lvl 60 pvp

And who knows how the Bolster will work when the expansion comes in. I do agree that saving the comms might be the wisest move though.

It seems I wasn't the only silly one NOT to get that the new pvp stuff would be 60. Obroan relics where my favorites, and now they're gone - and I don't see any of my favorites at the basic vendors nor at the formerly "classic" one:

 

- serendipitous assault

- focused retribution

- reactive warding

 

They're there at 60 alright. But they did exist in arkanian flavor, and now they're gone...

I see new 56 relics on the GTN already, but PVE only.

 

As for getting them in pvp in the 30-59 bracket.. it's a thing of the past, too.:jawa_frown:
