  1. I wonder how they decide on doing stupid changes like that... The only universe this change would make sense in is if they're planning to fire 60% of their staff and they know if pvp participation drops any further it will never pop again in like 5-6 months.... so something like a damn stupid precaution because the time left for finetuning simply isn't enough. Either that or they just took one too many of their "happy pills" - even "I only ever play pve" people which i assume all of the playing devs are, can't think that this was a smart choice... It just doesn't make any sense... even pve flashpoints are unlocked by level, although you get bolstered, some content you simply have to few skills to play comfortably, boosted or not. And then you think a character with all skills and almost ideal stat ratio is at the same level as a level 16 with not even 1 implant yet...? stupid stupid stupid....

  3. It's not just the small bonus but all the "queue for random fp via groupfinder" stuff, i think there are like 3 of them around, Why should I on every character need to do every time 3 - 5 HS just so I can finish a quest, simply because the majority of people are douchebags who can't find likeminded people to do the stupid stuff on cd with them? No it's the fault of the people who want to do random stuff too so game won't get as boring as listening 6 hours to the same song for 3 months, eveeery day... I seriously get anxiety these days for queuing veteran or hm fps, and if you leave because it's AGAIN the 7th HS run this day you're getting called out as retard and all those nice nicknames.
  4. At this point it really just is trolling, the argument of "you can do exactly the same stuff it's not limited to solo players" was brought up like 50 times now and all he's answering is basically: "I don't want to, I want to wait on fleet looking awesome for 15 min before anything pops, not doing anything and later get fabulous conquest points for doing queuing stuff, because i waited and wasted my precious time doing it. I could have fed my comp in that time one gift and sold trash, but i rather complain so I can still waste my time on fleet waiting for queues" At least that's all I'm hearing, maybe he just isn't communicating very well dunno…
  5. Not running Parse dummy stuff, but since i mostly do pvp healing anyway my average HPS is still about 12k in most WZs with 3206 alacrity build
  6. It should be incentive enough that if you play a game you don't spam 1/25th of the game all day every day. It's stupid, and makes you crazy. Thing is IF for some divine miracle you get something else than HS, nobody has any idea what to do - nobody knows that aoes are bad - that LOS is a thing - how bosses kill you even in veteran etc. You're "breeding" stupid players, and it all starts with the 500th HS where everybody ignores the dot from first boss, the blaster rain thing and the mines from last boss. Because staying in stupid is fun… And doing the same thing for the 500th time is fun too… for people who are insane, because I guess they are used to doing the same thing over and over again expecting different outcomes Really hope they either triple the mobs in HS so you need at least a tank and a heal to get past the first grp or that they remove it from GF, both scenarios would stop the "only thing that pops is HS nightmare"...
  7. The issue with elevating pvp is: we had something like that before, not exactly conquest related but rewards in general - as soon as you boost that enough you get the "afk pvpers" again. And we used to have a lot of them, or people who are getting the team to lose on purpose so match ends faster, etc etc You'd need so many adaptions to prevent that, like autologout - not only at the starting point, being able to kick people who pass ball to enemy 3 times in a row or something (i don't see people using that "would be feature" at all for neferious purposes). Pvpers can though, while waiting for queue to pop, do exactly the stuff you said earlier - travel to korriban or so, kill 5 mobs - send companion to sell stuff,... instead of waiting on fleet for pop
  8. Always depends on the grp, but when a guardian who can leap, tries to jump when already one got it, or the sneak who can just run through... it's always funny to watch - but yeah that's usually also the kind of group that will wipe at the droids or later at the dinosaur Situational awareness is something most people don't have, in athiss are a lot of spots where you can los things, but actually getting a group who does it is like winning the lottery, many many many "head meets desk moments"
  9. Whatever helps you sleep at night, resetting phases is a mechanic intended to restart if something bugs out - grp falls apart etc - not to spam stuff for rewards. If it was intended that way KP wouldn't have been nerfed, LBLO would still be a thing, etc.
  10. Sure, in an ideal world everybody would get the same amount of conquest points for every content provided, but sadly that's not possible. It sure as hell helps people now the way it is though to do bonus mission series on planets for example, doing stuff they skipped before because it simply wasn't rewarding enough - missing out on like 60% of the game. And that's a nice side effect, sure there will always be people who will farm crazy objectives each day every day so they can max out the rewards on as many chars as possible, but despite of the new conquest system I still see people looking for EV farms, spamming HS for gearing, doing RR stealth runs on cd and stuff like that - no system will ever please everybody, but it sure is easy to focus on the negative instead of the content people start to play again or that smaller guilds can survive now too and get some love with crafting mats. The issue isn't the system but the people exploiting it to no end, and that will never change.
  11. If you want political correctness I suggest you don't look into forums of any kind. "ALL" just sounds more dramatic and I'm sure at least half the people here who are claiming "I never did it, it's too dull, but bad bad new conquest thingy" were people who actually started such ops grps. Maybe you're not one of them, congratulations I think we just found the last unicorn, but then you don't have to respond to stuff that doesn't apply to you, do you? The stuff you just listed is worth about 20k conquest points restricted to 1 character per day - let's go overboard and say it's 40k - still, once per day one character only. Since ops are now restricted to lvl 70+ only I don't see any harm. And as long as devs aren't removing HS from GF i'll take sending comps selling trash 5000 times over doing the 657th million HS run and the exact same people whom you can thank for filtering, later complaining on fleet that there is no endcontent
  12. All you need is 1 Person to filter for HS in a setup of 4 people and you will get it. It's annoying like hell and infuriating when the people filtering, still, after the 15th million time don't know that AOE and mines from last boss are bad cleansing droid stacks helps with healing, or didn't pick up slicing for the elevator… I hope devs are removing it soonish from GF like BT and esseles, so that those people who want to mindlessly run day and night the same FP and later complaining on fleet that there is no endcontent can do that like in 1.0 with actually recruiting people who want to do this mindnumbing task and don't drag every other person with them.
  13. Love it how people keep complaining about "legally" farming a ton of Conquest points when before they ALL just used a glitch farming KP/EV nonstop for conquest points - and yeah it's a glitch or was one. Nobody can, with a straight face, tell me that entering an ops 20 times per day resetting the phase is intended for gameplay… So might want to stop that double standard
  14. Sorry if this is already reported, I did look but didn't see anything. So I opened today like 6 Renown Caches which were all empty, there was no loot they just disappeared when they were opened. It didn't happen with all of them, and I couldn't see any pattern to why this might happen. Seemed completely random. But the last 3 boxes I opened all disappeard after each other so I keep any new boxes in storage now until this is fixed.
  15. Look at dev tracker - should be up again in about 30 min or so
