Agreed. New bracket 10-49 is now interesting to play. It is possible to survive for rather long time now.

Even though I don't have a 50 yet (lvl46 with a 43 valor rank) I miss the 50's. This influx of lowbie baddies is killing me. Though I feel like I am god atm, I still used to fighting 50's in gear.

The down side is all the non 50's aren't going to learn to PvP, they will learn to PvPish then hit 50 and get schooled all over again. It feels like the skill cap in PvP go reset along with the new warzone caps. I imagine there were a number of people waiting for this to happen before PvPing and thus are just learning how to pvp.

On the brightside it appears that the lvl 50 warzones (according to guildies) have significantly less bads running about so the games are pretty intense.

My PowerTech tank now feels tank-ish. Good change.

If I'm hitting you for half what you are hitting me for, it doesn't make me less skilled. It means you are using a crutch.

I suppose I just don't understand what you are trying to say here. All the sub 50s aren't really PVPing now? Because they are all geared similarly, and are all swinging for the same numbers?

LOL at all the Republic chest thumpers. Here is a fact for you. There are just as many "bad" Pub lowbies as there are "bad" lowbie Imps. Just because you're butt hurt about getting curb stomped for the last few weeks doesn't mean your faction is better overall. Don't worry though, those same meanie battlemaster Imps will get bored with their mains and those that choose to reroll will be back to curb stomping you once again.


TLDR; both factions have bad players, it just so happens that you're now king of the hill because your opposing factions good players have outleveled the bracket. You didn't magically get better over night. The good players are just playing elsewhere for now.

And the 50's have to wait longer now just to suddenly find real enemies instead of the free com donors they are used to. One of the few good days to play on the Republic side. But enjoy it while it lasts, you never know what the devs have in store to"fix" it, beyond more same faction WZs

Lol, I've experienced the opposite. I'm imperial, and won every game but one against repubs yesterday. I don't think it's safe to generalize on this one, without numbers from all servers. I've experienced quicker queues, too. AND less Huttball. Great patch.

Agreed! 10-49 Warzones are a BLAST NOW!

No more 50's getting free wins Stomping lowbies!


This is a testament to how BROKEN the PvP stat is, and PvP gear in general..

now it's a TON more fair.. and more skill based now.


Not sure if i ever want to ding 50 now... might just level to 49, then start over again.

Amazing is the word for it! Crazy fun last night in the low level warzones, and in the level 50 bracket.
