Valor 70+ gear

QFT... Would like rated organised PVP...sick of either being in a pre made steam rolling a team and them leaving or Playing a PUG myself with very little chance to win against a Pre Made. It is not very often that I get a close match that could of gone either way. I would say about 1 in 10. It's completely one sided either way.

No need for more gear. The only good thing about the gear grind is you learn your class.

And that's exactly what's wrong with mmo players theses days - not just pvpers. For you guys gear = content and gear = character progression.

However, also those devs are to blame. If the age-old gear treadmill is the only thing they can come up with why people want to play the game...oh well.

Gear is attached to this game and every other MMO with a significant playerbase. If you don't like it, you shouldn't be playing MMOs.

Again you shouldn't be playing MMOs. But like with anything in life, people that spend more time perfecting something usually have an advantage.

You don't need to play 12 hours a day to get rank 70 if you win consistently.

So you can't win, therefore you're not having fun. You're probably the guy that rage quits warzones all day and wonders why he isn't a higher rank.

Players will never be on equal footing in a MMO. YOu do realize people wear end-game Pve gear to PvP, right? That's like asking for World Peace.

The rank 70 that wins 90% of the time in warzones compared to a rank 49's 50%, odds are the valor 70 is the more skilled PvPer.

Adding content to the PvP end-game wouldn't be a bad for a game that desperately needs end-game PvP incentive. Huge portion of battlemasters only even got 60 for the PvE benefits the PVP give them.

oh sweet mother of god, a fourth gear tier within 2 months?

While this is true, there is a difference between having an edge in pvp due to being better geared and having an auto-kill due to better gear.

Currently I think it is the latter. I feel no pleasure in ripping a new 50 apart in seconds just because I already wear some BM pieces.

It's been almost 3 months. Sort of a joke to even call centurion a tier though.

A good player in full champ/cent will destroy a bad player in battlemaster though.

For me personally it has nothing to do with gear. I have full BM gear. Sure I PvP a lot less now than I did before I got battlemaster, but what me and my guildies are really waiting for is Ranked Warzones, which will come soon.

With Ilum being as it is, there really is no need to give people new gear for next valor ranks. The next tiers will probably come with ranked warzones.

it'd be irresponsible on their part, at that rate, item inflation will like lvl 70 gear by this time next year.

Leveling to 50 is not hard. People do that in in under 5 days played. Balancing PvP around 'new' 50s is dumb. It's also not an issue since they can reasonably geared for PvP in a week.

I've seen plenty of fresh 50s win warzones though since they actually PvP'd while leveling up. Warzones are not about deathmatch currently, plenty of objective based things to contribute.

Also: Hence rated warzones that have already been announced. Fresh 50s that lose will be put against other fresh 50s that lose/win at the same rate until they stop losing all the time.

You self absorbed people !!!!


At least you did not get the basic champ gear nerf!!!!


It is obvious each and every one of you is only concerned with "your" situation !!

I hope they make a 4th and 5th tier gear grindfest and each piece costs 675 commendations with 3 per bag !!!
