Official Petition: Please DO NOT create another tier of PvP gear for 2.7

The bad *** black guy from Revenge of the Nerds?

Exactly... gear progression in PvE is quit different because you are fighting harder and harder mobs with each new operation. But PvP gear progression is utterly useless and has no benefit to players whatsoever.

The gear progression exists in pvp because of pve. Or would you prefer to do oricon in level 50 champion gear?

I would prefer nobody cared. Because im not bothered either.

If you want to PvE so bad, you can exchange your comms for planetary comms and you can buy 58 mods from the makeb vendor. Those will do just fine.

Already addressed time and time again.

- Obroan destroys 78s in OWPVP.
- Obroan will destroy top tier PvE gear in OWPVP even if 2 more tiers of PvE gear comes out.
- Obroan is way more than enough for single-player PvE content, including soloing heroic 2+ on Oricon. And what is this nonsense talk about level 50 champion gear? lolwtf?

This proposal is not for halting PvP gear progression FOREVER. We're simply saying a new tier for 2.7 is too soon, and useless, with much more pressing issues to address.

If they do introduce it can they at least have the weapons be better then bolstered lvl 44 blues this time..

I already talked to a credible source whose friend's cousin's husband's nephew's best friend is a BW employee.

Level 48 blues will be BiS in 2.7.

This is retarded. I don't play old content because I've cleared it dozens upon dozens of times. By design raids cannot get more difficult once they've hit NiM. I don't avoid EV/KP/EC because they're too easy, I avoid them because I can still remember ALL of the fight mechanics after having not been in them for well over a year. That is not fun or interesting to me. Gear is the only thing that keeps us entering instance once we've tagged up on the Progression rankings/titled. We learn more, we refine communication and precision, we get better because of the grind.

In PvP, adding another tier of gear does not solve the underlying problems with the system. Class imbalances because everything is lazy percent based. Bolster gear being better than the most expensive pieces of Obroan. 8v ranked is gone. No incentive to do Ranked Arenas other than competition, and don't even try to bring up the Rancor mount because lol@1500 rating, you can get that in a matter of days doing YOLO queues. There are so many things that need to happen to PvP before more gear gets tossed at us, bigger stats is only going to exacerbate current balance issues because again, everything is percent based scalars.

You can add in that Obroan is enough to hold your own in HM DF/DP, provided the rest of the group is geared/high skill level.

How is it too soon? Obroan has been out for several months now. Most people who do ranked have been fully geared for months. For those that do it the long way...well tough like I guess. Its not luck you will suffer by only having tier 1.
