Because that's all it takes to acquire the gear and fancy titles right now.

There's no skill involved. At all.

If you want to feel like a special snowflake, go raid and brag about your hard work, effort and accomplishments on some PvE progression thread.

As for PvP? Well, if it's going to be gear based... Then let players gear up quickly.

And let the battles begin.

Will you be ready when that day arrives chump?
I gotta agree and say I enjoy good pvp to the max when gear and abilities are on a level where there's no grinding, whining about obviously differences and just plain fun. Dramatic differences in gear although a carrot for some players just plains spoils the fun.

Length of time playing is affecting simple stat advantage and thats all well and good if tiered combat is available. I dont mind being an underdog at all and dont expect all bells and whistles, by all means peeps who spend a lot of their time invested should have something for it but really its no fun motor rolling anybody for very long.

Any truly competitive player welcomes a system where the gear grind is short and easy.

Friend of mine was there from start and he got from 55 to 59 in the hours before the hot fix. Very nice indeed but it hardly broke the game.

Maxed valor on mains and alts?? lmao ****.
Heh do you realize how that further imbalanced the Republic? it was bad already and then the Illum fiasco and you cannot see it? HELLO

It was said action would be taken after an investigation... I hope action was taken but my gut is telling me nothing happened.
I personally believe these changes to valor were brought about by the Ilim fiasco. It seems like they're throwing a bone to those disadvantaged by it and to level the field a bit. Easier, and preferable in a business sense, to do this than ban people who line their pockets.

They even think he's actually left-wing.

It's pretty hilarious, the guy is more conservative than the conservative party of my country.

Posts like these make me think of this
I have been playing for a month. I deserve a level 50, full Battlemaster gear and the epic mount that you looted from Soa. I will get this all in 1.2 because I am the 99%

A good troll post. What I liked:

- Brings in the current U.S. political landscape. The socialist term is a great use of a metaphor robbed from the Republican party. Good work!

- Provides good, concise fear mongering.

- Presents a highly unlikely future as if it already happened.

- Provides zero alternatives.

- Fails to realize the fix to the problem, and has no idea there is a problem, or has lied to themselves enough to believe there is no problem (some classes are designed for getting more medals than others).

It fails in other areas though:

- Lack of incorrect 'scientific proof'.

- Lack of discrediting known facts and substituting in incoherent beliefs.

- Not enough childish name-calling.

- Not enough use of terms like newb, terribad, etc.

I rate this a 6.5 out of 10. Not bad, but you need to go further and be a bit more incendiary.

So NO im certinaly not worried about seeing you there. lmao.

You fail to understand that my 4 man premade pretty much rolls every other full warhero/bm premade on the server 90% of the time someting which you will never be able to say. Full BM or Not.
But you're on here ************ about people getting valor and gear easier? Lol. Thanks for the good laugh today. I needed it.
