xomnow Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 15 bags for me and 45 tokens. Certainly not as terrible as some of the folks talking 25, or 30, or 40 with nothing to show for it. But like many, it's rather... soul crushing when someone opens 3 and says "crap, I already have all these" and I'm thinking "I'd love anything (except a relic) right now..." I bought a shield generator with my tokens which was admittedly better than what I had. I also have the blue 50 PVP gear to fall back on (when exactly did it get removed?). But yeah, add my vote to the RNG gods not liking me at all category. When you see folks with valor 20 and they complain about never being able to get that last final piece and they have 4 of the same thing... I'd really quite like to be in their shoes.

GameTwine Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 (edited) If only those people who opened all those bags knew that centaurian tokens could be used for PVP EPIX... *sigh* The ignorance Edited January 8, 2012 by GameTwine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grundlemug Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I haven't been a big PvPer in the past but I am enjoying TOR PvP. I'm a recent 50 and after looting 8 Champion Bags I have 1 offhand to show for it. My buddy has looted 4 bags and has a weapon, boots, belt and an offhand. Another friend has 4 items from 7 bags. The term frustrating is an understatement to say the least. Grundlemug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halphas Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 It's just another of the reasons me and my friends arent resubscribing. Boring untested no content pvp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scalare Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 /bump And just got my 7th earpiece, already have all the different specs ones and my pets are decked out. I don't care about not getting a token but remove the chance of duplicates (really really really soul crushing). Keep bumping till it's hot fixed please.

JahDux Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 You all know that as for this moment, there are people who havent been able even to log on successfully due to instalation bugs and what not. Furthermore, there are also ppl experience too much lag to play, and that there are high priority bugs needing fix, so bioware is taking care of that first. They WILL notice the general hate people are raging at the actual pvp gear system, and i´m positive that they WILL pay due atention to it and patch it eventually. I know it´s not an excuse, but the game has just been released ( only the ridiculous amount of playtime we´ve given it makes it look that it been here for ages already ) and the release was most successful (generally speaking ofc) . Keep in mind that the revenue as well will make its difference as how they handle situations. Bioware is still up to suprise us big time , once again. Patience fellow gamers, PATIENCE.

Skogen Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I'm gonna be honest here, i've been both lucky and unlucky with my bags so far, cant remember how many i've open but my rate has been alot better then my friends so i'm not gonna be crying about that at all. The thing is tho, i've gotten 3 helmets, 2 bracers, 1 implant, 1 relic, 1 pants and earlier today i got my offhand pistol. But what do i need three helmets for? sure i did find it useful to get 2 as i could get the healer and the dps helmet but shouldnt the system sorta know that you've gotten a helmet alrdy and give you higher chance of getting an item that you dont have. Pisses me off that i get 3 helmets and 2 bracers when i need other stuff but just now when i see the luck some of you other lads have had i feel for ya. Too bad you cant trade say a chest for a helmet and so on, that way people could get there stuff sorted since alot of people are getting the same item twice and so on. Best of luck to ya all and hope you have my luck with items but even better so you dont get same items over and over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best thing about getting the same token again is that you even lose 2 centurion commendations as well haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlaid Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 (edited) So I've opened about 16-18 champ bags now. So far: WeaponHelmetChestImplantLegsBootsBelt Edited January 8, 2012 by Vlaid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambunctious Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I know many hate WOW, but I farmed Rivendare 348 times (yes, I counted), and never got the mount to drop. I despise RNG with a passion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skadu Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I know many hate WOW, but I farmed Rivendare 348 times (yes, I counted), and never got the mount to drop. I despise RNG with a passion. Dropped for me on the first run and got the ZG tiger 2 times in 3 runs with my buddy. But the RNG bag thingy sucks major a**. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibuki Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 The best thing about getting the same token again is that you even lose 2 centurion commendations as well haha. Yes. I had an earpiece in my daily bag. Unfortunately I already have a champion-earpiece. A guild mate looted three mainhand sabers! I mean you trudge through this bug-infested, unpolished and laggy PvP-Content and all you get is... nothing! This game is still in beta-status. Charging a monthly fee for is is pretty bold.

Grundlemug Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Another bag, another 3 tokens. In the meantime, my buddy logs on, opens 2 bags and gets 2 items. Sigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snarlette Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 I wouldn't mind a long tedious grind at least then you have a goal and are guaranteed to eventually get what you need, basing loot off RNG is a very bad way of distributing loot. I know it's intended to keep you coming back but there are much better ways to do that, besides people who actually enjoy pvp will be doing it regardless.

mitigated Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 pvp loot is off the rng just the same as pve loot.... whats the problem here? You can go weeks without getting a piece of gear except for your commendations just the same as a pve raider can do ops or HM fp's without seeing anything but commendations. i pvp and i pve, currently valor rank 26 with 7 pieces of champ gear while in my pve set i have 2 pieces of columi gear and 1 tionese.... i dont see a problem with either.

Trigenetic Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 While i dont really mind the system you really have to do some kind of inventory check. So far i've been getting the same item's over and over. i'm getting sick of it really, + you loose centurion commendations so your actually punishing us rather than rewarding us... Well hey at least i get things, just the same thing over and over 3 times in a row and then on to another item i already have. This should be a high prio hotfix nothing less!
