What are things that baddies do that make them terrible PvPers?

Won't work on this stealthy, I got that sucker hotkeyed and if I know we're going to lose no matter what I do, I will throw it away before the other team even realizes I have it. Sorry!

Yes....b/c people like to take advice on how to improve from others that call them "baddies"...

This thread is an ego trip for the OP (and others) and any useful advice in it will be lost to the people who might need it b/c they will just ignore it as trolling.

I think it's even better when people QQ about no healers. I like to have healers as much as anyone, but I keep my trap shut even if I am muttering at my keyboard about how we never have any. Know why? Because if I wanted us to have healers so damn bad I could roll one!

^ lmao ^

A shame, there are some good tips in here.

Unfortunately, most of the people who could stand to learn them most likely do not visit the forums.

So true.

How about not buffing in the spawn. I had 2 Sith warrior classes in the lvl 50 bracket sit there and not buff. Oh and I let them know about it 15 secs before in ops chat.

Had this happen more than once... Usually with warrior classes...

Most people that could use the tips are convinced they need no tips.

The only bad player is one who thinks he doesn't have room to improve.

Tunnel vision. Like you and everyone else jumping into the pit to go after the ball carrier because you failed to notice his buddy on the ramp ready to toss him a line. Nothing feels more foolish than standing gape-jawed in the pit while the carrier shoots upward to his friend, then trots off to score unopposed.

A good Huttball game can be like a game of chess. You have pieces you advance and pieces that stay back to defend and you need to try to control mid as well. Even if your team isn't coordinated, if you take a moment to look around, you can sometimes position yourself in a way that helps far more than just going after the carrier, the carrier's healer, or that random guy at half health off to the side.

Also, learn your routes. Learn which route is better and when. Going up the ramp and through the fire grates, or around the sides? Depending on where your enemy is and how they're positioned, the answer to which way is faster and better is different.

Lately we've also been winning Civil War when two defend a side, two stay at mid, and the rest float between. But this is becoming a common tactic, too,and if you just mindlessly take off without waiting to see which way the majority of the spawned enemy is going, they will turn around and go after the node you just successfully defended instead of mindlessly trying for the other. So pay attention to where they are at all times. Don't fall into a pattern.

Wow, good add. To add to it, those who don't buff between the two phases of Voidstar...it's an obvious place to make sure everyone around you has their buffs, and so many people sit there with their thumbs in nefarious places for that 30s.
