1: What can you do with WZ passes? Just normals or can you do ranked? 2: What can you do with Operation passes? Just story mode or can you do hm / nmm? 3: What is "story" gear?
Ganking leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to pvp. The Swtor forum attracts trolls because the forums are more fun than raiding dragon soul. Complaining is the new meta game.

So no one knows? Does bioware not know? I sent them a tweet and they never got back to me.

WZ Pass lets you play unlimited normal warzones Op passes are just Story Mode Story Mode= Normal Mode It might seem silly, but give how artifact gear/ the gear unlock only lets you equip story mode gear.. "it could hold back the other raiders from getting kills in HM/NM." (Please note I dont agree with this mindset, but it seems to be the mindset of EA/Bio)

I'm not finding a "ranked wz" pass or "hardmode operation" pass.

Honestly: A Subscription. EA left those options out intentionally so people would have a "reason" to sub.

But EA said that the reason most people quit was because of the subscription. Why wouldn't they give the option to use the f2p model that they just implemented? edit: Why would they block me from giving them money via their f2p model?

Just because I use a different payment model I can't buy access to it? I thought this was suppose to be a hybrid model. Subscribers would get everything for 15 a month whereas f2p would have to buy access per week or w/e. But I can't buy access. Why?

At the risk of continuing to feed...... They need to have some things be "exclusive" content for subs, otherwise why stay subbed when I can just buy w/e I want to from CC. Again the issue with RWZ/HM/NM is as a F2P you are limited to what gear you can wear, which will result in holding back others from potential success within that activity. Plus some (not many but some (and not I)) like to measure their epeen with the whole "exclusive gear" vs a F2P

There's no reason to block people who prefer f2p from paying for content.
