Pve is set up to only be able to afford 1 piece of gear Per week.

Why should PVP Players get special Treatment.?

Also, Com Conversion....

You should not be allowed to convert unranked to ranked coms.

You can't turn planet coms to basic, or Elite coms to ulti. So why do they allow PVP to Grease by again, and not make them work for the gear.

Boy i wish i could just do Ev Sm over and over , and convert those classic coms to Ulti coms.

Its the same thing.

The same Limitations should be places on PVP.

The alternative is BW should Remove the weekly cap on PVE.
So, what effect is this having on you? PvP and PvE are separate, so the gear is really not comparable. That makes this whole rant irrelevant. Good effort, though.

Thanks for playing.

PvP gearing has always been a separate system from PvE gearing. As such, it has different rules.

The current rules for PvP gearing are fine. PvE players don't have to worry about them.

Nah, just make it so that you only get WZ comms from the match if you win, so the baddies will only get comms for completing the daily/weekly.

That would make it fair

I understand why the devs put comm limits in for PvE. They can't crank out content fast enough to keep up with consumption. So in order to keep you going, they cap your currency progression so you won't have the top tier gear within two months of a raid's release. One thing I have been a proponent for is to increase the comm limits each time they introduce a new raid. For instance, we received two new raids and weeklies that go along with those raids. The devs should have increased the comm progression limits by an amount equal to full clears for both of those raids, plus their respective weeklies. This way, people can do all of the available content during the week, and no miss out on any gear related currency.

As for those people who are saying that people can run instances all the time and get geared up regardless of how many comms they have, you are VERY incorrect. Remember that each raid has a lock out, and that you are sharing drops with 15 other people. The chances of getting fully geared with set bonus pieces is very low. Couple that with the fact that right now, it is rare to get an implant drop out of HM DP and DF, BiS is a long way off for PvE'ers. The only solution that doesn't screw over the majority of players in this game (remember without PvE, this game can't pay for itself), is to increase those caps. I'm not a proponent of removing the caps all together because those same gear farmers will turn right around as soon as they get all their gear and say, "Now what?"

The devs NEED to budge on this increase the caps, that's all there is to it.

You also don't have multiple chances a week to get a drop of top end PvP gear from soloing a node in warzones.

BW made a huge mistake by Coming out with lvl 78 gear as com gear. The last tier of gear 75 should of been the new com gear and the 78 only available from loot drops. That would keep people from gearing out to quickly.

If BW did that consistently then you would have no need for com cap at all bc you will never get BIS. You would have to kill top content get to get BIS pieces.

Here are about how many coms you get per raid with weekly

Classic hm raids 12 COMS
SV WEEKLY 12 COMS
16M SV SM 28 COMS
8/16 SV HM 36 coms
8/16 SV NIM 56 coms
TFB WEEKLY 12 coms
16M TFB SM 20 coms
8/16 TFB HM 30 coms
8/16 TFB NIM 40 coms
DF WEEKLY 16 coms
8/16 DF SM 20 coms
8/16 DF HM 40 coms
DP WEEKLY 16 coms
8/16 DP SM 20 coms
8/16 DP HM 40 coms

Now, You only pick 4 -5 runs, that will get you to yur weekly cap of 150 coms and you cant do any more until next week . If you do you get 0 coms for it .
It is not right now pvpers can play and play all they want with no cap, the grinders can play how they like , and the casual player can do the same. But im stuck with limits bc some one wanted to spread the game out. PVPers should play under the same rulz. Or lift the cap on pve.

I bought this game to play, and i am wasting my time Raiding and not getting something out of it.

Tell you what, let us craft our gear like you guys can, and then maybe we can talk about a weekly cap.

Well that would result in crafting 2 gear tiers lower then the top. So that is what lvl gear for PVP 61's?

That makes a lot of sense.

Here let me explain it for you then. in PVE (player verses environment ) you can RE (that stands for reverse engineer ) your armorings, mods, enhancements, barrels, hilts, implants, relics, earpieces, etc, get the schematic, and craft as many as you like as long as you have the mats. The reason you have a comm limit is because of this.

In PVP (player verses player ) you cannot RE (remember this means reverse engineer ) your armorings, mods, enhancements, barrels, hilts, implants, relics, earpieces, etc and get the schematic. This means every PVPer (a person who PVPs ) has to gear each of their characters all by themselves, without the help of someone who can craft the items we need to make things easier.

This is why you have a comm limit and we do not. Hope that helps.
