World PvP and my 2 cents

This is probably going to be a little long so for those that don't like to read...

 

Meaningful World PvP>Warzones.

 

Alright so don't get me wrong, Warzones can be fun when you find the right group that actually wants to win, but that happens only every so often.

 

Last night as I was questing on Tattooine I crossed paths with a Sith Marauder. We were both fighting mobs, but we both broke away to attack each other. With our companions and the Sand People going crazy it was probably the most fun I have had up to that point. In the end my lvl 30 Jedi Shadow overcame his 28 Marauder and I cloaked away from the NPCs.

 

We battled twice more with the same outcome, but after that we just finished our quests and left it at that.

 

A couple minutes later while I was exploring the Dune Sea I came across the Jawa Balloon, and the Datacrons. I found out where to go in general chat to get on the balloon and I found two other republic players there as well so we formed a group.

 

keep in mind that the round trip for the Jawa balloon is around 36 minutes or something like that.

 

I'm not sure how long we were waiting for, but eventually a group of 3 Sith came and we battled it out. It was clear that both sides wanted the balloon, so neither was willing to give up and we had a solid 20 minute on and off battle for the balloon.

 

Finally the balloon came back and we were able to hop on before the Sith players made it back from the cloner. It was one of the biggest senses of relief I have ever felt in a video game, and it was at this moment I realized how great world PvP can be when there is something to fight for.

 

Then a level 28 BH comes from no where and power corded one of our group members off of the balloon, but that is another story...

 

Anyways, Bioware, it doesn't take much to get people out and into some World PvP. Something as trivial as a datacron had us at each others throats for 20 minutes. It was the most fun I've had in this game yet, and I hope to find some more PvP like this to come.

 

Just my 2 cents.

That is an opinion.

 

Anyway one thing is that when killing another player we should be rewarded alot more to encourage world PvP. They simply need to make wPvP more rewarding, fun and worthwhile.

 

Most of the problems as of now is that not many people are 50, even if you have alot of 50s on your realm most are gearing up in Warzones to get started on either wPvP or wait for ranked Warzones when/if they come.
