The WAR pvp system was good. Very good if you ask me. Huge scale fortress attack defense were awesome.
The problem with WAR were the pve part of it, and the bugs, and the lack of polish, things like that. If you consider only the pvp part of it, I'm sure we have there the best mass pvp in mmo games.


On topic: Level 50 are killing the fun in pvp for any non-50, because of the level difference, which isnt "compensated" properly via the HP / dmg multipliers: as a non 50 you'll still do less damage, and resit way less than a 50, even if your HP/dmg has been scaled up.
And also because of items, as all level 50 are already working on their pvp sets and wear Expertise items, to make them even more powerful than the standard level 50.

For me the biggest problem in Warzones is the responsiveness of skills and the delay of 1,2 sometimes 3 seconds between the actual skill and the effect ingame: this, mainly, makes me unable to play pvp warzones, on a rig which can run BF3 in ultra on 64-players maps...
But it's another problem, isnt it?!

The pain is that its hard to separate ppl with 50 and pvp gear and those with 50. My 41 powertech can give any fresh 50 a very good run for their money in 1v1. If he is geared and has half of a brain, then he will still be around 30% when i die no matter how hard i will try.

To make it simple, I think they should make only two brackets:
10-49 and 50 alone.

The unwanted effect may be the birth of some kind of level 49 twinks, but at least for those who want a normal pvp experience will pvp a bit during leveling, and then start to pvp for good at level 50, I doubt a lot will stuff themselves like madmen at level 49, mainly because they cant really avoid gaining exp, and will eventually reach level 50 even if they dont want to

And as for you, you must be new to the game, hopefully you'll enjoy your first warzone when you'll actually play it.

I agree with this, now that I have reached level 50 it is entirely to easy to obliterate lower levels.

So a level 45-50 bracket will be cool and it wont slow down the queo for thos level 50 cuz they will still be able to quoe whit some level's 45 put a list we wont have to deal whit Premade of level 45and50 team's again level 20 and 30's it make pvp more about who have more level 50 then about skill's


SORRY FOR MY SPELLING I hope you can understand

So plz level 45-50 bracket fast level 45 and up need there own little bracket so it take skill
It amazes me that people still do not think there will be a 50 bracket. This is really quite simple.

If there were a level 50 bracket right now their que times would be unreal, and then opposed to lowbies being pissed about getting farmed by 50s, you'd have 50s being pissed about hour long WZ ques.

Bolster does it's job from 10-49, equiping the level 50 gear provides a massive amount of HP and Expertise which makes the bolster buff useless. Obviously there is going to be a 50 bracket. Have patience.

Played a "fun" match run now. Stack of pvp geared 50s vs lvl 14-45 (and 1! 50) randoms. They took a ball and walked to our line scoring and then killing everyone there, then they went for another ball and did the same thing... Only thing keeping them from scoring 6:0 in 3 minutes was knockback... Diing is fun, but its not a dwarf fortress >_<


I hope Bioware will fix that stupid **** soon.

p.s. dont tell me that "1hour queue" thing, the servers will be full of 50s soon. PvEs have a hard time finding people too.
