Well, on the plus side, those who actually (somehow) enjoy PVP should have something to look forward to, lots of free and easy targets from all the people just moving around from time to time to not get booted for inactivity lol

C'mon pvp players.. This isn't anything to you. But it means more for those of us who aren't here to make your epeen bigger. I don't play this game to make sure you have the best pvp gear. I play because I grew up with this story and galaxy.

No pvp player deserves a say. You joined this game knowing that you had to do story. I joined for the enjoyment of star wars.

You aren't real pvpers anyway. You're "kill, die, repeat" players. Play a game where there are hardcore rules. You die, your toon is DEAD.. Gone.. Forever.. You won't.. Because you are, at heart, pve players. Players who grind for their own wants.. And your wants don't earn the right to force me into your enjoyment.

I've played those games. Hardcore rules. I've pvp'd with players where my toons "honor" was at stake.. I've played when I knew my toons permanent death was waiting around every corner.

Go play with your kill, die, repeat.. But don't brag..

I'm not doing PvP, ever - I just don't want to hurt other people; doesn't work for me; I don't like it. I got legendary status, legacy level 50, 20k achievements, but no PvP. Never. Not going to.

But I do want another companion, another friend. It just doesn't make sense in my head. Why would they introduce such a strange requirement instead of a normal solo PvE quest?

For the record, I don't like recruiting Dr Lokin through Rakghoul event only, either. I've got eight(or rather eighteen) high-level characters who will need him as a companion: I can't wait for months for each of them - again, that just doesn't make sense.

I hope they'll change it in the later patches. As it stands, it just seems a really bad idea.
Hey, another reason to avoid KotFE at all costs.

Lol alright Mr. Internet Tough guy I'll let you enjoy that cheese with your whine...

It's a game lol. So what if they inter grate a part of that game into it.

Might as well let Pvpers just level as fast as story players do through WZ not that I care but still can't have it both ways lol

I'm surprised more PVPers aren't angry that us filthy casuals will be ruining their playtime by gimping their teams.

Seriously though, I'm a level 65 in PVE gear and predominately a clicker. With no clue about how to PVP or warzones. Do you really want me on your side?

I don't know how true that is... I've lvl'd to 65 in pve and haven't seen any of my companions yet... You'll need to wait till chapter 10 to see them I think

If it is true then you guys need to settle down... It's one comp... And considering pvp got ZERO love again in this Xpac... Let us have one little thing that is pvp only... If you really want Lorkin, the. Pvp a bit... It's the same as if we wanted s special pve mount...
Plus comps do jack crap now... They are basically generic... They fill any role... You don't need to gear... They aren't anymore than just bling or part of some part of the story... But I think old comps will have minimal story roles... All the new comps have the story handled

Pvp teams have been gimped for so long now, any new pve people playing pvp will make little difference... As long as you listen to some basic advice and don't become a complete douche in matches, we welcome new people... Who knows, you may even come to like it... It also makes you a better pve player too as it is much harder to play than pve content... Pve content is way to easy and repetitive... At least playing against a real person you never know how hard the combat might be and every match is different
