This is a PvP region restricted to groups of four players competing over limited resources to achieve daily mission objectives.
Operations groups are disallowed in the Southern Bowl, but on PvP servers, the Northern Bowl will still host large-scale conflicts between the Empire and the Republic.

No Operations groups in the Southern Bowl and Northern Bowl if you are in a Pve Server.
Pvp Servers can have Operations groups in the Northern Bowl.

Many repeatable missions are available at each research camp, and those that require entering the Southern Bowl are flagged as [PvP]. These [PvP] missions do not directly require killing players, but the nature of the objectives will pit your group against all others in the region
Southern Bowl will be the Pvp area if you are going to get a auto flag. At the same time I can no longer form operations groups in the area because of the four man limit. So either they give me a character copy or I will just run around with other players in my faction. No reason to roll in a pvp server just to do this one event.
Ouch... the open world pvp will only be available on pvp servers? That sucks. I was looking forward to that but I am not on a pvp server. Bummer.

So typical, PVPers finnaly get some love and all the elitist PVEers can do is ***** and whine about how Bioware is being bias.

And before you start i'm gonna remind you that recently you got 2 major PVE updates and all we got was a new WZ and gear with +1 stat increase.

"but on PvP servers, the Northern Bowl will still host large-scale conflicts between the Empire and the Republic."
Please give us PvPers stuck on RP/PvE servers paid transfers so we can transfer to PvP servers

What tron looking operative gear? Defilitely feeling like there isn't much creativity there, just like the cartel market. I hope this can be done without pvping cause it is so not fun right now. Better be some legacy bound sabers this time around, this is a star wars game.

Being primarily a PvE player, I still enjoyed the element of PvP from Rakghoul event and will give this event a fair chance - since I enjoyed the aforementioned event with surprising enthusiasm!

Where is the ability to purchase increases to the CREDIT CAP? The game is unplayable with a 350,000 credit limit. You are going to continue to hemorrhage players until you let F2P players purchase increases in the cap.

“Relics of the Gree” is a new recurring in-game event in Star Wars: The Old Republic. Gray Secant will come and go from Ilum as it continues its millennial mission to gather and analyze infinite data. The event will end when Gray Secant achieves Red Radian and departs the planet – but look forward to its return!
please tell me this world pvp is not recurring and it's forever

I wouldn't exactly call NMM EC a major pve update...it was pretty much the same as HM...though the dreadtooth worldboss has brought some fun...but hey pvpers get involved during that fight all the time when guilds try to down it. I would also like to remind you that Ilum and pvp has been around since day 1...if you like it so much it was there for you to use this entire time for world pvp.

I hate PVP. People will just exploit it and gang up on people in groups to further ruin it. Completely ruining their chance to get anything done. I only enjoy playing WITH others, not against others, or alone.

Way to go Bioware.

My anticipation for this just died. Pretty much everything they do now just turns me off.
Over half the people playing have at least 1 50. The level requirement doesn't alienate most of us.
