Except for World of Warcraft, and EVE.

But its misleading since its not actually anyone's base health and Exp is matched against the bonus HP on PvE gear based on what they expect a player's real base health to be. The formula for and stat allocation for Exp isn't based around people with 7k hp. So you're completely misrepresenting the stat. And since this is a stat rating, min/max thread, this leaves a huge hole in theorycrafting... which makes the whole post moot. And LOL @ the guy who thinks BM is "easy" to get.

Yeah so... in trying to prove which set of gear is best for a player, you left out 70% of the equation, including base health. Which makes it all a waste of time, and pretty misleading. But of course some people will just see a wall of math and go "Ooooh that SOUNDS smart, must be true!"

BAAAAAAAAAAAW!

Hide in bugged doors while planting/defusing bombs so people can't target you with anything other than AoE.

My PT has no problems with Mara... so dunno where this "best 1v1 evah!" garbage is coming from. I do know where the "weaksauce" garbage is coming from. People who quit playing Mara before 40-50 because at lower levels they ARE the worst class in the game. Also every class in the game has a million buttons... seriously go level some alts, you'll see. Then you can also get over your "Mara take uber skillz" garbage too. Because they don't, they just take patience while you level up and get some epics.

Yeah, I know about those. I'm talking about regular combat skills.

Which doesn't affect Tech/Force skills, which is how people do like 80% of their damage. I've had it happen to me where my skills just wont work because I get a message saying "target isn't vulnerable" or some such.

*** is this nonsense? Another "easter egg" like the water? I just started running into it in the last week, against multiple classes. Every time you try to attack them nothing happens, and you get message saying they are not vulnerable. Seems to last 5-10 seconds.

Really ALL they need to do, is make knocbacks fill the resolve bar.

Yup... in fact they may not even bother using a knockback with this uber strat of "Run headlong into ranged classes" because you will already be half dead by time you get into melee so they wont feel threatened enough to waste the GCD on a knockback.

And then MW3 made more money than Avatar... so clearly theres a HUGE market for people who want kill other people in video games. Its just a matter of finding a studio that will do it right.

Yes and no. I was in WAR for a good chunk of CB and after launch. The RvR was without a doubt better... but it suffered from A LOT of other problems that drove/kept people away. Not gonna beat that dead horse... but going with 2 factions was clearly a bad Long Term choice. And the IP would've easily supported at least half a dozen factions if they really wanted to do something wild.

I'm not talking about TM today... i'm talking about Vanilla, even a year after launch. Trying to keep it apples to apples. I came into TOR with low expectations for World PvP... I just wanted a game I could play at least for a few months and have fun running into random people in random places and fighting them, throw in some WZs and i'd be content. Never happened. And I have rolled Republic alts too... the cross over space on most planets is minimal.
