If you enjoy 10-49 PvP, why 50?

errgg hit 50 yesterday expertise is a joke!

no increased damage!!! gear with % defence is fine, it means that if i'm shooting at some guy in gear I will kill him less slowly, but he should not then turn and blast me away for even more damage. Derive damage from standard stats and have expertise as a purely defensive stat.

I agree 100%. Reminds me of pvp servers in EQ2 when level locking was allowed and a lot of people locked in at level 11 and made the newb areas full-o-fun for hours and hours on end. I remember having around 5 level 11s. Druid was OP though.


Done a lot of pvp, some to the extreme hard core end game pvp. Nothing comes close to 1-49 hutt ball right now. I may just end up having my character slots full of level 49s over the coming weeks =)

Cheers. See you guys in hutt ball.

Yes the only problem is that I like the look of the lvl 50 gear

Edit: the operative one, the assassin is crap
[Ayreon: Lvl 50 Assassin rank 50+] [Ayrea: Lvl 50 Operative rank 64] [Ashaa: lvl 22 mercenary rank 20+] [Ravel: lvl 50 Marauder rank 50+]

Pre-50 you don't have all your skills and you aren't completely attuned for your class. Gear isn't a major factor because of Bolster as well. Also, there's little to no full pre-mades because people are more focused on leveling.

lol whatever. Your just sour now you can't 3 shot people on your operative or something smegma like that.

1-49 pvp is here to stay. 50s can kill trade in illum all day for all I care. Good riddance.

Level locking at 49 would create "twinks", as in well-geared characters that would mirror what we've seen with well-geared 50's, making pvp, over time, less enjoyable again for lower lvls.

lvl 50 Sniper
lvl 50 Focus Sentinel (main)

LOL - are you kidding me? If you were any sort of healer, you became free valor for the geared 50's.

Must say I thought the exact same thing, as I'm now level 47. I wanted to avoid getting to 50, but the fact that WZs give me xp makes that impossible. Just gonna reroll with another character and start it up again, this game is designed for individuals to keep leveling characters. It seems to be that the most fun in this game is designed for players in the level 30-40 range, which is awesome.
Let's make things easy. From now on: I'm right, and you're wrong.

Moral of the story de-emphasize gear in pvp. I will keep beating this horse. I'm really liking this game, but if end game pvp follows the wow track where its basically gear comparison and the combat is a formality...I will be moving on.

Come on devs. Buck the trend and lets get back to skill based pvp at end game!
