From what I hear the party bomb was used in PvP warzones as an exploit and so was removed. This is a shame because it was a lot of fun - we used to have dance parties at the fleet all the time. Now, there is no reason to get social xp

So, ban it only at warzones. Why they punish all social gamers?

Loss of the Party Bomb is call for a boycott. That's just some baby back BS...

Because PvPers whine and get whatever they want, you know there's a thread in Suggestion Box about PvPers trying to get Social points from Warzone matches... This is madness!! They're trying to justify PvP being social.....

What exploit? I'm valor 90 and had the party bomb - trust me when I say I tried to see if I could CC the pubs with it. It didn't even work if you were in combat. The only thing it was good for, was forcing noobs to blow their interrupt

Also, there's a dev post somewhere about how it was removed due to causing lag for some players - maybe they should just take the game offline and sell it as a single player.

SWTOR removed the Party Bomb from their game in 1.2 without any patch notes. It was pretty much the entire reason I played their game. Do you guys have anything resembling the Party Bomb? I pre-ordered, so I'm playing with or without one, but it would be the cherry on top.
