rantboi Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 points for doing pvp is fine, everything else is just too low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fardarter Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I think one thing we can agree on is that the system was terribly implemented. The new PVE content offers crappy CXP and is much more difficult without a healer than tactical FPS without a healer and in my experience you can get more cxp doing certain FPs anyway. It is like they did ZERO testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsetso Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 It won't last long. People who are genuinely interested in ranked were playing ranked in 4.0. CXP grinders will quickly tire of doing it if they do it only for the cxp and do not enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simbr Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 (edited) It is not absurd. I played for 3 hours last night mixing up between WZ's, FP's, Heroics and Uprisiings. I got 3 levels from 17 to rank 20. I know PvP is faster, but there really wasn't that much of a difference in the progression from each. However they should give more CXP for PvE that should be your complaint. The only absurd thing is that I got NOTHING of use from the 3 boxes. RNG is absurd not CG. The system would work great if they removed RNG imo. Edited December 8, 2016 by Simbr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Spc Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Absurd is only that PVE content gives very low CXP. It's not pvp that's broken, it's pve that's broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dbohrius Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Well, I never did ranked PvP and I'm willing to give it a try to gain a boost to my CXP. I wouldn't bother with it if they didn't nerf the Gold elites to the ground. I was never intending to farm that Tat Heroic area the way Jerba did, for example, but I was actually chasing Golds during my weekly heroic runs, which I stopped doing since 4.0.

McHondy Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 If they keep it all like its now you will see more and more doing ranked just to lose and get CXP from it, as it's one of the fastest way to get it. That will include me, and I don't care about my ranking or anybody else in my team.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morteficare Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Still the fastest way i ern cxp is whit pve but pvp if it popps is Close second if we talk ranked pvp. What people misses is that that starfighter is even beter then regular pvp or ranked pvp. I dont do starfighter becous i am so bad at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsetso Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Except they are watching something else on second monitor. How could they get bored? This guy has guide to farm CXP the laziest (and most annoying to others) way. That video precisely proves my point. This guy is already bored to death with the game as it is. And paying for something you don't enjoy is not a lot of people would do. They'd unsub instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omaan Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Once I hit 70 it became very clear that the fastest way to get command points is to just que for PvP. You can get 600+ command points for doing a 4v4 arena that takes ~5 minutes, while doing a SM operation gives you 600 points for completing. The 4v4 arenas also seem to be popping up more than pre 5.0, so the quicker matches are happening more often. On top of that, even if the warzone gets shut down in 30 seconds for having too little people, hey who cares here's a free 300 points for being a sport. And these are regular warzones, I haven't even seen what you get for ranked warzones. It's great and all since I prefer PvP, but it's at the point where its inefficient to do anything else... I've done veteran uprisings and story mode ops, but neither come close to the rate at which you get crates doing PvP. I don't think PvP rewards should be changed, but the amount of command points in PvE should be raised. Getting 15-20 points for killing champion NPCs just isn't very efficient. I know that the developers wanted a balanced way of grinding out these crates, but at the moment there is one that is clearly a better use of your time. Stop writing such threads, don't give them reasons to nerf pvp grinding, there are already many leavers because of long gear grind, dont make it worse! In addition, if devs make pve more efficient - there will be threads from pvp players whining that it's unfair. Pvp may give more cxp but it is also more complicated - you fight real humans not npc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hichitsuki-hime Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 i am in full agreement to have pvp cxp nerfed big time just so the rest of the community can be up in arms about what bioware are doing. but isn't it already over the RNG of the GC crates? :D o, can someone plz send me some bullet points from that stream they're doing on thursday? =) cause i fell it will be in the middle of night my time =) lol thank you. :D u know what's a good system... the ESO champion points =) that's nice for choosing how to spend ur bonus points lol =) just a random thought.

Hichitsuki-hime Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Absurd is only that PVE content gives very low CXP. It's not pvp that's broken, it's pve that's broken. much this. it's not exactly broken it just seems like it gives much less CXP cause fps and ops are naturally longer and then cxp of gold mobs has been nerfed, which made the net result worse.:eek: something does need to get changed. and selling CM boosts is certainly not IT haha:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tummiswtor Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Yesterday PvP with SWTOR team-looking balance <3 Me (DPS) + Guy (DPS) vs. DPS,DPS,DPS, Healer. Fastest CXP in history of SWTOR, we won't even try to fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mewsy Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 It's getting a lot more people PvPing, which has been fun. Idk I feel like this complaint is counterproductive, and more likely to come back and bite the players in the butt than to actually help us.

MrsFen Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 1) Stop complaining, this is why we can't have nice things.... 2) Who cares about gear for raiding? You can still ace HM flexed 70 raids with 220 gear sets, and there are still no new raids announced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soljin Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 PvP WZs do give great CXP and it is enough to compel people to PvP over other activities they may prefer.....But! To be clear it's because CXP returns are set far too low for some of the other activities..... The RnG grind of 5.0 is completely off the charts ridiculous especially adjacent to 4.0 which had almost no gear grind at all.... The Gold Mob nerf was knee jerk and actually hurt 5.0 more than anything because it further restricted options for optimal CXP gains by making some activities no longer worth running.... I'm not even going to mention how the first day I would actually go out of my way to fight a couple extra packs to get that Gold mod down while running heroics......Now once again I blow right past everything except the objective.....Bioware if your goal was to slow people down a bit the Gold Mob CXP Nerf did the opposite. Point being....Be Clear when walking down this road....WZ CXP should stay the same...other activities need CXP buffs..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieKirby Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Well, lets hope bioware.....sorry, EAWare actually have some common sense and buff up the pve side of things, because even if pvp gave 2000 cxp per match, win or lose, i still wouldn't do that piece of crap, pvp is boring and no amount of rewards will get me to play it..

TUXs Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 can we please stop trying to make them worsen an already HORRID grind please?:eek: Right lol? Ask for 10x CXP increases...not nerfs of any type...NOTHING gives too many CXP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
