Answer to guy no. 1: If you are actually hindered killing the guy because he has better gear than you, but you claim you would beat him if everyone had the same gear, why don't you just grind the high rated gear youself?

This my fine sir simply made my day
People are so dumb on this forum
Cant tell if he is truely a troll

Then there is you for example, who is probably less skilled than me and has worse gear than me, why should you get the same gear I get carrying you in warzones? If there were only 8 of you in one team you would never get done the dailies you needed, if it wasn't for people like me. Better players deserve better gear.

ROFL, thank you sir you just proved my point about you on my previous reply..
F2P is like driving on a long stretch of highway with toll booths every 1/2 mile

That is not the translation no.

This guy wants to be rewarded for his efforts. You don't do stuff without a purpose, and it seems purposeless to get high rating just for the bragging right.

You people immediately assume that he wants better gear so he can bash others easily. How ever that is often not the case. When you fight so hard to get a certain rating or w/e you'd like to get a reward for it, and I dont even care if its like ''new look and + 1 willpower'' you just want a damn reward so it isnt so pointless.

This is the for ever ungoing discussion between players who play to compete vs players who cry and whine because they are not entitled to the same rewards for no effort.

Please wake up. MMO WILL NEVER reward your casual behind. How would you like Operations to not drop gear.


MMO is all about grind, effort, time & reward - this model will not change just because you are a miserable human who doesnt understand basic logic as work=money, no work = no money.

Take a step back, and actually listen to what you are asking for, and dont give me these retarded arguments like I PAY MONEY TOOOOO. You people disgust me

In PvE, it's different. In PvP gear should not be a point, I'd rather they just give everyone a uniform set and let them fight evenly and let those with a higher rating have a better looking set. Stats shouldn't matter, if you're good you don't need a stat advantage.
^this, a million times over.

Because I am the best I deserve even better gear? Is that your argument? Seriously?

When I talk about most pvpers really do not want a competitive match all you need to do it look at this guy.

He like many just want an Iwin button so he can roflpawn people with his gear advantage.

Yes the rich need to get richer....

You do understand that because of the ilum valor exploitation that the devs had to scrap the valor system as obviously many many people were involved and if they banned them all they would have to take a huge hit on the bottom line.

People should be pvping for fun not to grind gear. People will take the easy road on the way to that gear, afking, hacks, exploits come to mind. If there was no golden carrot most of the cheating in game would go away. Of course there will always be some people that will alway hack.

The bigger the reward the more people feel pressured to get it as fast as possible using whatever means whether they are legal or not.

Unfortunately OP most player of this game are either casual or PvE players , from these just a very small % will get anywhere when the pvp gear is given based on skill AND they know that.

They know they suck , only point i give to them ,does prove they have a brain.

Thus the reason the masses cried till a gear that requires NO TIME and NO SKILL to get came.

I dont think it is gonna change.
The Lord said: "QQ enough and thou shall receive it."
The followers said: "I shall QQ my lord, i shall QQ."
And since then , not a single day passed without the QQs being heard.

Someone cited Counter-strike / Starcraft as examples of competitive PVP and they are 'dead on' with that reference. In competitive PVP -- and professional competitive PVP -- the players have equal items.

With an MMO. I do enjoy putting time into crafting to produce a purple schematic once that schematic is learnt anyone can by the products (pending materials). Therefore anyone can more easily access those items from either PVP / PVE.

PVP equipment purely for end-game purposes creates a disparity and with SWTOR seriously needing to expand their oPVP even if such gear were only useful against another player it would hinder the oPVP as it would disincline people towards it.

Someone who has X Rating (a high rating) in PVP is someone who plays well and should be feared. The rating is a form of prestige and ranking and that does have value which does not need a gear reward.
