I don't think answers like "We did it, just do the same and shut up" are constructive in any way. What I can see is that among the persons I know who actually got their full war hero gear, most of them ended up leaving the game since they were tired to wait for something more interesting in swtor pvp. And I also know a lot of people that gave up on the WH gear since it was too long for them to get it. Finally every passing day there are less people in WZs between those who are full and leave and those who give up on pvp. But there are still egoist people that grinded their equippement and want to keep winning easily not because they are good, but because they have a good gear. But you should understand that if the situation stays as is (like you want it to), you are only penalizing yourself since in the end there won't be anybody playing pvp in your server. So I would rather agree with the OP and make the gear more accessible, or even I would ask that everybody gets the best set for free, so that everybody has equal chances to win and not only the guys who grinded for monthes

Now, we're not counting the times that a player would not do so well or it is just a plain loss with 8 medal requirement earned. I would imagine it would be somewhere from 700-800 warzones if it was straight losses. On average a player can do four warzones (assuming that each Warzone lasts the average 15 minutes). If a player grinds warzones for eight hours (the hardcore gamer with no life), that will be 32 warzones in one day - on average. Which in effect will take him seventeen weeks to complete the required amount of commendations to have his gear. 17 weeks is four months and one week. There are dailies and weeklies to assist in shortening the time. But... These numbers alone.. really? Haters gonna hate and probably say I am whining. These folks prolly already have their War Hero gear. But think of it this way... Do you wanna do this entire grind over again once there is a new season - each season? Or each level cap that is raised? Gonna compare to WoW here - it didnt take me nearly as long to get my arena gear... 1. The only time you shouldn't get 8 medals is when you're trying not to get 8 medals. 2. Go play ranked warzones, it wil be faster. 3. Four months sounds about right for the average player. 4. Yes, I want a long grind for gear every season... either that or just give it to everyone for free (even playing field). Either is okay.

My last reroll that hit 50 was full rakata in about one week and even got 2 BH pieces during this week. Most of the BH gear is better than campaign gear and you can easily get 2-3 pieces a week with the commendations and even more if you get some interesting loot. If you play every evening you can get full campaign in about one month after hitting 50. That's a lot quicker than the time requested to become full WH. Quote: Originally Posted by UnderatedNoob 1.

Take a deeper look at the result tables after you pvp tonight and see if among the fresh 50 there are a lot of people that have their 8 medals. You are insulting them. In some cases I even got zero medals. If you are dps, can't make heal ore shield medals, and are targeted as soon as you respawn, can't have defensive medals because they control all three points, can't take them out because there is a healer per points, the ennemy has good focus and your teammates are dumb, you can spend the whole WZ getting no medal. Same thing in huttball, if the unbalance between the two teams is too high they will score 6-0 in no time and you won't get anything for this.

Ure not calculating daily and weekly rewards. Its additional 4k normall comms per week. I have two full WH sets now, not concidering myself really hardcore pvper. Btw. when war hero tier comes alive, reward for weekly was only 100/100. So be glad u have 300/300 now ;] Edit: to fill the math. If ill use your simple calculation. If youll go 3 wz everyday and win them all, u have 76 340 comms per 11 weeks.

Last time ive checked i got a tonload of Endurance than my main stat which is Cunning, how is that better? I have no intensions making this go way offtopic so im done here, you go stack Endurance for your dps, ill go stack my MAIN stat

Of course there are some mods that are crappy, and have too much endurance for a dps especially for the chest armoring mod, that's right. But after a good remoding and optimization process, you can have a better result. For example I looted a trooper BH chest from the pilgrim nightmare that outpowered from far the corresponding BH or campaign chest from the vendor. I also bought 3 boot pieces CM because they had very insteresting stats on their mods. Furthermore, lots of mods from the campaign gear are like +68 primary stat/ +32 endurance/ +12 power while the BH gear are like +53 primary stat/ +32 endurance/ +41 power which is a lot better.
