However this doesn't stop people who grind out their own toons and gear from PvE, they can still come and enjoy it as well.
Or unlock special skill abilities as you gain PvP expertise. So PvP'rs who have accumulated many many hours in the warzones might have a few special moves they can use - (with long cooldowns).

This is truly the saddest thread I've read. Easy fix for this is create three seperate lvl 50 brackets. One where you fight without ANY gear boosts: Everyone gets exact dps, exact matching stuns, exact skills, exact base primary stats. Everything will be PERFECTLY balanced where not a single person can have ANY complaint in any shape or form for ALL is exactly EQUAL and skill and latency wins. ( oh someone will complain about laggin skills < can't win them all > ) IF people queque for said game, than that's the game they get. They get Zero rewards other than a PVPL scoreboard.

Second WZ's bracket is as ingame atm. You EARN GEAR for efforts applied.

Third you drop 1% of your credits each death (cannot enter unless you a minimum 250k credits) + current top gear with each pc having 3 augment slots each as a bonus.

There. That should fix it!

Broken PvP is broken PvP regardless of the game it is latched on to.

You cannot have a balanced RPG PvP experience because that is a logically impossible result to achieve.
first off, SWTOR is not PVP(player vs player) its TVT(team vs team)
Once you get your head around that, you will cry less.

"Normal people" like to play an RPG for progression and gear.

Most video games are played by beating up the weak and winning stacked matchups.
Yes, in PvE. Not in PvP.

Could you please try to grasp what expertise does before talking about it in a way that makes it seem like you do have a clue what it does.

Thank you

Yes, and most PvPers also PvE. As I've said before, it's a fatal mistake to base PvP off a PvE system.

I prefer the 50's brax tbh. In the 1-49 brax on my alts, I find that a lot of players don't know what they're doing (more so than the 50 brax anyways), queue up at level 11 and spam their basic ranged attack, lack a lot of their abilities possibly causing one side to be imbalanced. I feel like I'm just n00bstomping in the 1-49. Capping a turret, scoring, or planting a bomb in the 50's brax feels so much more rewarding. People die much slower in the 50's brax and are generally more organized. I think that's a good thing. Personally, 1-49 is EZmode for me, so yeah I do enjoy stomping every now and again, but I'd be lying to myself to say that's where the real pvp is.

Do the dailies/weeklies, do some HMs to gear up instead of writing long extravagant whine posts. You'll gear up fast enough. You should've saved up 1k/1k + 1 champ bag before 50, you could've had a few pieces right out of the gate. Getting to Valor 60 is a grind, getting champ gear is not - it's really easy; and BM is not much better than champ.
