This happens to me as well and has been happening for some time now. I would like someone to address that they even acknowledge this issue.

It bugs out at times. You just have to leave the instance and reset it.

This is very noticeable when the guild members I run with are approaching valor rank 50 and I'm pushing 35. At 50 valor per medal, it begins to add up. I get no healing medals between 75k and 300k? I put shields on my teammates and get no credit for absorbs? I score in Huttball three times in a match because we play objectively and I have nothing to show for it? Broken system is broken.

The problem is, a lot of times I am the ball handler. We play strategically and we pass a lot. We win most of our games fairly quickly.

I get 7 or 8 in VS or Alderaan, but Huttball is a different story. If you focus on moving the ball and not farming kills, you don't get awards.

I dps when need be, I burn the ball handler and dps others when they are trying to burn me down. What I don't do is run around the warzone dps'ing. I'm a healer and that's my primary focus. There's no way I can achieve the damage awards that damage dealers do if I am doing my job effectively, unless the other team is really that bad.

Why is it that I can run a Huttball match, get 225k healing, score two times, multiple assists near the inzone, and still come up with only two medals? There are awards for killing blow, multiple tiers of damage done, defense, etc, but I get a medal at 75k healing and no more healing medals between that and 225k? I suppose if I farmed Huttball and tried to tag every opponent I could increase my awards, but that's not how the game is supposed to be played. In my guild premades, we score...and we do it quickly. When the match is over, I'm at the bottom of the list with two medals, despite all of my efforts in making it a victory. While I don't think awarding medals to those who score is a good idea because I feel it will lead to more "ball hogging" and less team play, I think this issue with other awards should be looked at a little more closely.

Yes, you can.

Even after a boss enrages, it is still possible to continue for some time. Our tank can hold an enraged boss for a while. Enrages are there for a reason. If you expect to bring a bunch of under-geared and under-performing dps to a raid encounter and take your sweet time, you should find out quickly that you won't. Bad dps puts a lot of burden on good tanks and healers.

This being a themepark MMO has nothing to do with the raid encounters being bugged. WoW is a themepark MMO, what is your point? It is very frustrating to encounter these things. We've cleared all normal mode content, but it was a p.i.t.a. to get it done. My favorite is not being able to invite "insert random guild member" to the raid because either they don't get the invite or when they do, they are unable to zone in. This has happened countless times and we have to go down the list until we find people that can actually zone into the raid without getting the "The owner of this instance must reset...blah blah blah."

You can run them on heroic modes at level 50.

This encounter is extremely buggy and was impossible to complete. Add this to the list of high level content bugs. Hundreds of mobs spawning and turrets that fire like they are running out of batteries.

No, it's more like this: Mike: There's a contest going on for Patriots tickets. There are a lot of tickets and the sooner you call the hotline, the better your chances. They have so many tickets that they can't give them all out for one game but you have the opportunity based on how soon you respond to go to this Sunday's game or next Sunday's game. Jason: Cool, I'll wait because I don't really think they mean they are going to stagger the tickets across several Sunday's. Mike: Ok, that's cool but I'm calling right now!

Yeah? So you'd rather have long queues and crowded starting areas. If that's the experience you want, then wait and play at midnight on the 20th, when the retail launch begins. They've already stated their intentions for EGA and those intentions aren't to stress test the servers. They know what they are doing and people are just going to have to either kick a can down the road or quit complaining.

No, because if the shoe was on the other foot, you would feel otherwise.
