- 15 wanna be PVPers.. I dont see a problem with them leaving.
Hopefully they stay gone!

It should be a little bit of both. Never did I say it had to be a legendary gear set with 100% crit chance that will one shot fresh everything.

The stat increase between champ and battlemaster isn't all that much, were talking like 4 expertise per piece. I'd expect similar progression upwards. Centurion/champs would be still be competitive vs the handful of 70s on the server and again, getting rank 60 isn't all that difficult.

A ops with BMs vs geared BMs in my experience, is much more competitive than a bunch of fresh 50s going at it. Rated warzones will most likely segregate the winners and the losers, so maybe you should take your complaints to another thread. You're talking about a completely separate issue.

Even then, the 50 bracket is much more competitive than the 10-49 right now.
Why do you want more stats? Why is visual progression not enough? I'm trying to understand why you want more stats.

Let's assume they give you rank 70 stuff and it it is better than BM stat wise. Let's assume they also implement rates Warzones. Would it be ok with you if your rank 70 gear was locked out of unrated Warzones? If you wanted to PvP for fun in an unrated WZ, would you be ok with not being able to wear your rank 70 gear and instead having to wear your BM stuff?

What good is PvP gear if he can't use to to proove to fresh 50's he's awesome by 2 shotting them. (I 3 shot fresh 50's and I am in Champ/Columni not even BM)

By that logic, should end-game pve gear be 'locked out' of warzones?

Battlemaster is hardly an upgrade over Champ.

I have to use the same mods from my Champ gear.

If they capped PvP stats in WZ's at centurion/tionese level it would be awesome. Of course me having better gear than that would be a waste but I'd prefer it to the current "lol I hit you for 3k every time I use my bread & butter attack" on newbies and "lol is that guy shooting me" when a fresh 50 attacks me.

For the purposes of the discussion, let's assume that higher tier PvE gear is normalized to match with BM gear in unrated Warzones. I pose the same question, the one you're avoiding quite obviously. Why do you want stats and would you be ok if your rank 70 gear was either locked out of unrated Warzones or normalized to match BM gear?

Just to clarify, your rank 70 gear is fine in rated Warzones but if you join an unrated one, it is brought down to match with BM gear. Same goes for PvE gear that is higher than Rakata.

Is this acceptable to you?

They won't release any gear for a long time. Atm the valor levels are just for other titles such as warlord and war hero.
