  1. I like the idea ... all for it. but I'll throw something else out there ... we have all these planets and so much open space all over the place ... why not make more use of it? perhaps I am ripping something from Rift here but why not random triggered "events" on various planets at varying times with some sort of objective to capture via pvp? have them announced via system msgs to attract attention ... have the rewards interesting but at par with what you get for warzones. I think the spontaneous nature of it could be fun.
  2. and I swear if BW said it was going to lower the sub fee to $9.99 there would be QQing from people who'd say they felt $14.99 made it feel more worthwhile to them ... a discounted rate was cheapening their gameplay. :|
  3. do we get double xp for the fun times on your yacht?
  4. I've played all three specs with vanguard ... shield, tactics, and assault. I will buck a lot of "trend" in saying that tactics is by far my favorite and most fun to play ... but it is also the most flawed and lacking. Recent changes to shields made it far less viable in pvp due to how shield rating and absorption work ... and shield spec was my second favorite spec. Assault, to me, is a FOTM due to how you can stack numbers if you are smart about spreading around your plasma dot and getting several targets ticking at once. I've also messed around with a tactics "tank" using a 8/31/2 build under ion cell ... this to me is a lot of fun to play, but it just comes up short in a lot of ways, too. "Fun factor" unfortunately doesn't translate well into group stuff ... when people are like "oh we thought you were dps assault, tactics sucks." They're not entirely wrong in saying that, either, but like I said ... I find some of the more subtle things in tactics to be fun. Currently I run what I call a "run and gun" setup which is 1/22/18 tactics/assault blend. It won't put up the sexy numbers of a true assault but it gives me some of the fun factor of tactics I like and some utility. 1. How do you think your Vanguard spec is perceived by other classes? Suboptimal tank, suboptimal melee, and only good as a high dps assault spec (2/6/33). I used to enjoy doing tanking with shield or tactics based builds but everyone I run with has made the case over and over ... guardians and shadows are far superior tanks for pvp due to vanguard's poor survivability when compared to the other two (mainly lack of stellar defensive CDs). they also lack any sort of dps when compared to the other two. I went with a dps build so I at least had a chance to get an invite for warzone teams. 2. How do you perceive your own spec? I enjoy my 1/22/18 spec in that it gives me a lot of mobility and some good dot and burst dmg options. It will certainly not challenge a full assault in numbers, but it offers some additional utility and as I have said before I genuinely find the tactics stuff to be the most "fun" so this brings that to the table.
  5. I dunno about being a chilastra guild. :|
