If you actually take the time to coordinate and plan then more than likey you will win. We crush the Empire every night we pvp. It's all about communication and team play. If you go and try and rambo then you deserve to lose.
I guess you've never tried healing as an operative in pvp.

With all the interrupts/cc in mind now add:

-Main heal has a 2 sec cast time.
-In order to use my shorter cast time I need stacks of tactical advantage which I obtain from using my long cast heal.
-My instant HoT is nearly worthless.
-My free heal is channeled and ticks for way less than my HoT even does.

That pretty much sums up operative healing. Now you try doing that for a week in pvp then come back here and tell me how incredibly enjoyable it was.

I've been healing in mmos for years across multiple games. This is the worst experience I've ever had attempting to heal pvp.

I've been doing a significant amount of warzones since lvl 10 on all my characters, I forgot when you figured out every single thing I do in game. By the way, your totally neglecting the fact that I've said multiple times " Take your level 10" 11 whatever " and charge a lvl 50, you will lose " . Its true you will lose, ITS A TEAM GAME not a 1v1 game. 1v1's rarely occur in any warzone because you wont win like that, and thats why your so butthurt because you always lose and blame it on an imbalance that you create. Im glad your unsatisfied and hope that it leads you to unsubbing, because warzones would be alot better without people like you.

Anyone who has been in an unbalanced warzone and watched 4 level 50s running around effortlessly mowing down low levels KNOWS that the OP is living in a fantasy land.

Last warzone I witnessed Empire had 20-25 kills. The Republic had 1-4. The damage ratio was a joke, too.

LOL if you are so naive to think THAT was about teamwork. Pretty hard to work as a team when you are all at the spawn point in 2 hits.

But these stats all make sense assuming the other team is smart enough to focus the healer, thats entirely your teams fault for not supporting you and not making themselves a threat to attack instead of you.

OP, you need to believe the lower levels have just as much chance as you do if they would only play more skillfully...Because that means YOU have skill.

If you understand that: you have a bazooka and 50% deflection armor... and they have a dull knife and no armor, you realize you are not achieving anything by blasting the poor guy with the dull knife.

You're joking right?

Even a good team can't save me from that and even if they could then what good am I doing? It's nearly impossible to get a heal off with the slow cast times and the insane interrupts/cc.

Really, just go try playing an operative healer. I dare you.

Noctura,

The OP doesn't really understand what is going on in warzones right now. I think he/she means well enough, but just doesn't understand what is happening, since he/she thinks teamwork and communication would have a team of 10s and 20s winning over a team of 50s in full gear.

Only a good team can get you so far. Try to put up 4-6 level 10-20's against my level 50 fully T2 and T3 geared Marauder. I'll easily kill 3 or 4 of them before dying.

What I personally hate is you cannot make full 8 man pre-mades, cause then you get stuck with 4 scrubs that don't do crap. It may take 3 to 4 players to do a match decently, but it also takes just few n00bs to screw it all up.

Apparently he missed the part where I'm not new to this. I realize every mmo has its issues but my class is nearly unplayable in pvp atm.

For instance, the interrupts only locking out the spell it actually interrupts... Good idea and all... except when your other heals require you to have a buff that you gain from the heal which was interrupted.

You just answered your own question, A good team could save you with that lol Did you ever take into account that everyone else on your team has CC of their own? As a tank specced powertech all I do is try to keep my healer alive because healing is what generally determines the winner of team battles.
