Eh..i myself don't mind the FFA ( I soloed the pvp quests after my group gave up...only didn't get the bonus boss,ancient gree something) but I can agree with they could have done it a little better. As I suggested earlier , maybe they could've had a different type pvp quest there and not a quest type area. I mean like go there and pvp to gain points to turn in at drop box, instead of putting an objective for people who like to pve.
We didn't start the Star Wars,They were already fightin' em,since George was writing them!!

PVE have gotton far more than pvpers hav ever gotton, two warzones is hardly a massive jump in a year. so really u think u pve players been that hard done to compared to pvpers? and theres far more people that actually do some pvp than there is that dont ever touch any pvp. dont recall last time i saw a level 50 on my pve server that had 0 valar.
I PvP once in awhile, tried out the new (read revamped) PvP area for the event and didn't hate it. Once in awhile I'll queue up with guildies for WZ's and every so often even pug it. The one gripe with the PvPers, and where I was thinking he was mostly going with that point, wasn't the actual content but things like the screaming of PvPers about class balance and when Devs acquiesce to the relentless cries for balance they almost inevitetably torque the mechanics of PvE play greatly affecting the play styles of those who don't PvP at all or at least very little.

As much as I don't like how they made the pvp side of this event, it's the only way they could have really done it and kept it "fair."

Small groups of 4 prevents the larger guilds from dominating the area, preventing smaller opposite faction guilds from accomplishing those objectives.

I suspect they'd have to re-code part of the game to keep the max 4 person group size AND keep the pvp only between factions.

I just want to get enough rep to get the legacy weapons.. Specifically the saber.. Once I get it, I will most likely be done with the event and this part of ilum.. PVP still sucks over there.. This FFA stuff is for the birds.. They also need to shorten the cool down on the thing in the middle..

From a story lore standpoint, imp vs imp or rep vs rep makes no sense. Especially rep vs rep.

One of the best events ever nice to see Ilum revived . I love PVP and FFA zones let the gang fest continue...

Better yet for those that don't want to PVP it easily avoidable and you can still weekly cap the rep for the next 2 weeks and never flag PVP.

If you want to cap quicker you can do all the missions, PVE and PVP but it's not a requirement thats for sure. Just being able to avoid PVP entirely should you want to is nice in comparrison to something like the HK event (which we know the majority wanted) and had a rather forced PVP aspect to it.

This event is so much better. Do what you like: PVE or PVP or both. Players choose.

Ya you'll get no love there, Star Wars has been gone from this game for awhile now.
