Finally got to 50 and put on my spiffy new recurit armor. I figure, I can at least hold my own right? NOPE!! Seems like everybody on the other team has at least 18k HP, that was like the lowest I saw in about 15-20 warzones I ran. In some cases, it was just 3 or 4 GCD's and my poor little guardian was taking a trip to the spawn point. Whats worse, some of them simply ignored me, laughing at my small and puny lightsaber I don't want any battlemaster nerfs or anything, can I just have a hug plx?

Yeah there is a huge difference between Recruit gear and fully Augmented WH gear. Good news is that BM gear is cheap, only takes a few days to get geared up, and is pretty good. Take your lumps, pay your dues. =)

Once you realize that a fresh 50 in 50s bracket is the same as a level 10 in the 10-49 bracket then you will do better. Change your mentality: stay in the back, pick off low health guys, timely cc. You will be able to contribute more to the warzone once you gear up.

And by easy, it's important to point out that it's easy compared to how you got BM gear before 1.2. I can see some hitting 50 for the first time seeing it as a long craw. You may also want to pick up some endurance buffs. Will give you a few extra thousand health. but for now, do what we all do with our fresh 50s. Enjoy the feeling you get from those rare wins

Put on your big boy pants and push through the beatings, because we all did it and we all survived. Many of us before 1.1.5 when the RNG crap on gear still existed and it was an even more frustrating experience. Hell, Recruit gear is now given to you for free, I don't know what more you people could possibly want.

good points in this post. If anyone wants to see how difficult pvp was for a fresh 50 before recruit gear existed (or was free), do one WZ with your fresh 50 pve gear. I may have to do this once this weekend ha

You can see old youtube videos on this. 4 people failing to do meaningful damage to one person. people like to complain on the forums but PVP has come a long way in the short time this game has been out

I don't know about you, but I started PvP at 10 on my Vanguard and Gunslinger and both were top damage, objectives, and medals frequently.
