aspectsofwar Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I know theres been a lot of doubt about WoW players skill and people from grinding MMOs talking a lot of trash about WoW players not knowing "real pvp". WoW used to be open world pvp too. Rated instanced PvP brought out the theorycrafters in WoW players forcing people to min/max and understand the esoteric mechanics of these types of games. Most of the class mechanics in this game are based off of WoW mechanics. Your world PvP zerg raid group will probably be properly crowd controlled, interrupted, shut down and systematically eliminated by a handful of WoW gladiators. Lets not even get into warzones as they are battleground clones. I expect WoW PvPers to dominate. I'm calling it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderChronos Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) Seriously... who cares? If you like wow, that's awesome. If you don't, that's awesome too. Edited December 14, 2011 by CommanderChronos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reofjsof Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 these games aren't that hard to pick up--if you put a little thought into your spec and play, bind your keys, and stick with it for a week, you'll be top 10% for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bountyhunterrrrr Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 lulzzzzzzzzzz Age of Conan pvp required about 100000 times more skill than WoW. Is this a joke? WoW pvp was easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpudDkilledRagG Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 You speak the truth. You have to be pretty ignorant if you think otherwise. It might be a different game but it's also very similar. Going from WoW to this isn't a very big change. If you're good at pvp in WoW you'll be good in SWTOR. Those top players that switch over will still be top players in SWTOR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord-Atorius Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I'm 100% positive you will retract that statement in about 3 months. Umm no....lol. If you played SWG before it really went down hill, that's PvP. So keep Dreaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bodhika Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Take out auto-attack, macros and key binds how good will a WoW Glad really be??? Please wake up and smell the poodoo. Blind statements of aggrogance usually preceed a fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blind statements of aggrogance usually preceed a fall. Many top PVPers in wow don't use macros. Not having an auto attack changes nothing a WoW player utilizes every gcd just like you would in SWTOR. How are we losing keybinds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blind statements of aggrogance usually preceed a fall. You sir/maam are extremely ignorant. Arenas in wow took skill beyond doing any actual damage or healing. The main difference between your average arena player and a Gladiator was the coordination with a team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sovain Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I actually believe that, by the feel of the game and classes, out of the gate it's going to be Rift players that dominate (I know there weren't many). Any variety of experience gives you an edge, however, so I think this post is unfair, being that WoW is the most likely MMO people have come from (at least at one point).

I'll take top pvpers from DAOC AND WARHAMMER, over Arena Gladiators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
