I have 7 level 55's one of them a sniper
I am doing pvp on my level 52 Shadow - I have 1980 expertise

In a huttball - I am in the middle on the bottom and I am dieing instantly - why - because a level Sniper is nonstop hitting me for 8k+

This isn't a skill thing - he is up top just burning through my entire team
8k per hit - my best hit is 6k - but this level 30 Sniper is pounding me - he ended up with 780k damage that warzone - level 30 sniper

If this is Bolster as intend this is pitiful...

Agreed. Why did they even put expertise in 1-54 pvp? To try and prevent twinks? Stupid. Level 20s and 30s get 2k expertise while a lvl 50 in EWH gets 1800....

PVP was better before 2.0. Get rid of expertise in 1-54 pvp and get rid of bolster period in 55 pvp. Things were fine the way they were.

Looking at bolster it's a wierd one. If all your slots are filled with NO expertise you get 2018 in 1-54...if u have any expertise it deducts it from the amount u have. Then u hit 55 and all expertise u have counts.....I don't really get it tbh

I think they put expertise into the game so they can use bolster, bet the bolster was designed by some important dude at BW, so this way he can get money for using his awesome bolster.

It truly is "awesome" and I hope they are enjoying the money they made creating and implementing this "awesome" system.

If you're on a shadow then stealth, go behind the sniper, knock him down to the middle where the rest of your team is performing the usual pointless zerg and let the melees take care of him.

I was wondering about the title of this post. Is it supposed to be "Yet another bolster-fail post" or rather "Yet another bolster fail-post". The latter seems to be the case.
Fact is: Guard urgently needs to place a lockout debuff on the target.
