I used to vote for best healer then I saw us lose void stars because a healer kept spamming heals and letting people cap or even spamming heals that were unnecessary rather than throwing out some dps to clear the area so we could cap.

I started looking out for people I thought made a difference and also balancing that against how many medals those people seemed to have acquired in the WZ.

Sometimes though I admit if I dont find someone fast enough I give it to whoever is left since you cant MVP once they leave.

Lol, you should score 9+ medals/immortal as a healer on a regular basis. Healers don't get that much less medals than most other classes. Maybe one less medal on average.

I usually give my vote to the healer that heals me
I rarely get heals so it something I notice
Also to the guy defending the quite side of alderaan
Def can be boring sometimes but someone's gotta do it
Also I give to players that I notice make an effort to hit nodes and
Set up goals for huttball
It's not hard to see who's active or not

As far as earning MVP votes - I give my vote to whoever I feel was the biggest credit to the team. Someone caps the ball 3 times? Defuses multiple bombs? Helps hold middle turret instead of farming kills? MVP.

^ This right here. DPS is good, Healing is good, guarding is good. But if you have players getting passes off consistently for a score, or someone consistently holding an objective they should get MVPs

The MvP vote enhances the rewards given like the tooltip says. Little extra of everything basically. Unless someone is getting like 5+ they probably won't even notice the difference.

I toss them to the healers near automatically, not because I think their job is harder than the guy killing, or whatever, but because few of them que up, so hopefully it encourages them to do it again. While I personally go into every fight not expecting to be healed, it does help when it comes.

I typically take into account total damage done (or healing), awards and other statistics I see on the closing screen to award my vote.

A lot of the time I (Bounty Hunter) and #1 is overall damage, #1 in awards and even #1 in total kills and fewest deaths, yet I rarely have players vote me MVP. Sure, its their choice, but it doesn't make sense.

So, I guess my question is, what do MVP votes do for/to me as a player, and how can I increase the votes I receive if I am already maximizing my contribution in he Warzones?

thank you

I'm not saying that healers aren't needed by some people, but they aren't the end all be all of the game in any aspect. It takes healers, and killers, to win.
Not just healers and killers. The person you referenced sounds like he's neither.

A tank in PvP can be a game-changer. Somebody who can take the pain while interrupting enemies, who can shield your healers or DPS, who can reduce the dps output of the entire enemy team by 30%, who still brings interrupts, knockbacks, stuns and mezzes... Those things, at the right time and place, like good healing and dps , are critical to winning or losing, but are mostly untracked by the mpv votes and accomplishment medals awarded.



All roles are needed. But heals usually get the MVP vote, followed by DPS. Harden the F. Up and play to win, instead of playing for the glory and approval of your peers.

I get 8 medals on a regular basis, but that is as far as I can go. I do understand that you say 9 with the thought of the 75k damage medal. But that means that I would need to forsake some of my 500-700k healing for damage, and since I am a healer I say "**** no" to that.

I will never support a playstyle where I should Not heal as a healer just because it will make me get a extra medal or two. The system is flawed and that's it. Dont make excuses like "doh, all you need to do is dps some more.." rofl.

With that said, I dont mind my 8 medals that much.. especially not when coupled with 500-700k healing, 0 deaths on my premade and 3-6 MVP's.

Sorry to break it to you, but it's just 1 commendation/MVP. The MVP is just there to show to people that this person have done a good job according to the grps votes.

The medals are worth 5 commendations, and then you get a number of commendations depending on the game somewhat.
