After two rounds of layoffs, server merges, and the executive producer leaving I wouldn't hold my breath on any significant changes coming to this game. This would include the balancing of marauder\sentinals and power tech\vanguards. If you really want to pvp, gou might as well roll either one now or just start working on your GW2 builds now.

Ranked WZs are for the premades with enough powertechs\vanguards and marauder\sentinals, if you don't then you'll just have to do unranked.

right, but you still only need 3 out of the first 4 to instantly melt someone, the rest are just for when you get bored with those 3.

How do you account for builds?....you don't. Not that I would build a Shield Tech PT, but I know plenty who do, and without a doubt they don't have the damage potential. Same logic applies to all of your data, you have no information on builds being used. The only thing of value is the numbers of each class, and that talks more than anything else to the advantages in playing a PT/Mara over every other class.

I like to go stand out side a lot, so I went with Outstanding.

I've stopped playing Huttball as well since the 1.3 patch due to the rubber-banding\lag. All other WZs appear unaffected.

#2. Rock Paper Scissors approach with all factions having access to the exact mirrors of each. Classes do have a role, group makeup and synergy should be important and have consequences when not heeded. No side should have access to anything not available to the opposing side. Animations, cool-downs, build times, base damage should be identical across factions.

If that were true, this thread wouldn't be 28 pages of QQ. For the record, I completely agree with you. PVP gear should should be cosmetic differences only. You want a something to work for? Start every fresh 50 with pink underwear for year with "NOOB" stamped all over it for all I care, but it would have exactly the same stats as the rank 75 "OWNZER" ****** looking gear you are working toward

^^ this ^^

I agree with the OP, nerf Marauders

I'm level 28, I enjoy pvp especially following the introduction of the 50s bracket. What bugs me is the limitation of owning only 1 champion gear bag until level 50. Right now I have 1000 Mercenary, 1000 Warzone commendations and 1 champion bag and there is now little incentive to do warzones for the next 22 levels. Why not allow people to start working on their expertise gear WHILE leveling so that when they do hit 50 they can reap the rewards of their work and actually have some expertise gear waiting?

I would still really like to see this change.

You can only buy one bag at a time. Once you hit 50 you can open that one and then you will be ably to buy another. Get 1000 of each commendation and level to 50.

Try the Razortail Rill lizards. They are everywhere and harvest for bioanalysis. I am however unable to find a good archaology spot which is what brought me here.

So roll republic? That's what I did. Pretty simple fix really and see hutball now about once a day.
