keyboart Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 (edited) Hey hello. Recently I started playing SWTOR again and got a 60-day subscription (yay!) and I really love playing PVP. But Its been really a long time since I last played and I have really forgotten the main points and strategy of PVP. I was wondering if any player or dev can answer these questions. #1 Is there a way to obtain PVP gear without using ANY WZ COMM?? ( the one with SPECIAL UPGRADE, like for 2 armor out of the set you got the first 'upgrade', 4 armor out of the set you got the first+second upgrade and completing the set makes you have 3 'upgrades') #2 I saw some players were wearing PVP GEAR with CARTEL MARKET icon/label, how could I obtain those armor? ( They are also the one with 'special upgrades' #3 Where could I find relics which I could use in PVP matches APART FROM GTN?? #4 Is there a way to deal more damage? I am a marauder and I often deal like 4000 dmg using RAVAGE!? #5 Does using PVP MEDPACS to heal OURSELVES gain MEDALS for HEALING? ( I think it USED TO, but I could anymore. Could anyone confirm that?) Thank you for reading my question. Hope someone can answer these question and if you have a pvp question just comment this post and other players may help you too Edited July 2, 2015 by keyboart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( the one with SPECIAL UPGRADE, like for 2 armor out of the set you got the first 'upgrade', 4 armor out of the set you got the first+second upgrade and completing the set makes you have 3 'upgrades') No, all PvP gear comes from WZ coms, with the exception of Expertise Crystals which can be crafted or bought offf the GTN. #2 I saw some players were wearing PVP GEAR with CARTEL MARKET icon/label, how could I obtain those armor? ( They are also the one with 'special upgrades' This is armor that they either got on the GTN or via opening packs fromt he Cartel Market. The mods in this gear were all pulled from gear from the PvP Warzones Comms vendor. #3 Where could I find relics which I could use in PVP matches APART FROM GTN?? Warzone Comms Vendor #4 Is there a way to deal more damage? I am a marauder and I often deal like 4000 dmg using RAVAGE!? Get the best available set of PvP gear, fully augment it, and maybe research how to play Mara in PvP. (I don't, so can't help you there.) I believe the current wisdom is to go either all Might or all Power Augments, but I might be wrong on that. Again, someone who plays PvP Mara would know better. #5 Does using PVP MEDPACS to heal OURSELVES gain MEDALS for HEALING? ( I think it USED TO, but I could anymore. Could anyone confirm that?) I think so, but not 100% sure. Edited July 2, 2015 by MaximusRex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papazmurf Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Medpacks 100% count toward medal count in terms of healing done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daewan Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 For more information on PVP, you should check out the PVP section of the forums. I highly recommend starting with this guide: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=707204 which was written by the very excellent and helpful L-Randle, and updated regularly.

DarthMaulUK Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 And don't purchase any pvp gear. 3.3 will see the costs of all pvp gear reduced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
