guild mate hit 50: 6 bags, 6 different piece of champion gear including weapon. Friend has been 50 for 2 weeks: Opened 35 bags, weapon and offhand. GJ Bioware, I think a lot of people were giving this game a chance for the 2nd month but something like this not being addressed makes the game just look bad, especially an MMO with a subscription. You expect time put in to yield rewards, not seeing some fresh 50 get more gear than you in seconds while you've been trying for weeks.

The RNG system is definitely not the best as some people can be very unlucky. However you're still progressing with every bag you open. If you're < valor rank 60, you should think of it as slowly working towards centurion set with chance of getting champ gear If you're > valor rank 60, you should think of it as slowly working on completing champ set with chance of getting BM gear. Duplicates can be annoying but the mods and enhancements can be used to upgrade your centurion pieces. Centurion armor with champ mods is fairly close to Champ armor. Also if you play any of the pve you can use some of those mods to upgrade your pvp gear. I have lvl 58 mods in some of my champ gear. I reached rank 60 on my Marauder yesterday (still missing champ relics and offhand). If you compare the difference between Champ and Battlemaster gear, it's not very big which I think is a good thing. In the end, it's not worth pvping just for gear.

Valor 24 Belt, Implants, Chest, Bracers, gloves. don't know how many bags. Probably 20 or so. Luck of the draw, I guess.

I think the "number" given by the RNG when given a bag should be augmented by a number that represents the level of valor a character has. More valor=better chance at obtaining pieces you need.
COOLER MASTER HAF 932 Advanced <=> COOLER MASTER Silent Pro Gold Series 1000W <=> OCZ Vertex 3 240GB Internal SSD <=>ASUS MAXIMUS IV EXTREME <=> Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge 3.4GHz (Clocked @ 4.8 GHz) 95W Quad-Core <=>G.SKILL Ripjaws X 16GB (4 x 4GB) <=> 2 x MSI R6970 Lightning Radeon HD 2GB

So whats left when i have full champ and i still cant get a single token out of a BM bag? When others who open up less bags have way more pieces....

tbh i think this might be my last month in SWTOR crappy random bags,terrible lag in ilum,poor population imbalance with no incentive to join rep ,mirror classes that actually aren't mirror in damage for whatever reason. The list goes on and on,the pvp is so badly done it can actually get voted for worst pvp in a mmorpg.

You know cent coms are whats in champ bags to get T1 pvp gear You have a chance to "WIN" champ gear..... When you get to BM then you roll on BM gear with a chance to win a battle master com that you can buy whatever you want with YOU ALSO GET CHAMP COMS to buy T2 for the items you didnt get with luck PS they should nerf champ bags /thread

The rng does suck, but compaired to how other games have been, how much effort have you really put in? Most of you talk about having multiple peices, yet the game is only like 5 weeks old, and how many of those have you actually been 50 working towards the set? In other games it takes months to fully gear, and even then if your not the op combo for your team you might not even get the chance at access to all the high end gear. I am over valor rank 60, and I really don't feel like I am being ripped off on my time spent with the gear I have. If you sub valor 50 I can say you haven't really done that much pvp, and looking at it that way why should you have anywhere near a complete set? Just cause your lvl 50? uh huh, ok.
