Technohic Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 (edited) Valor rank cannot exceed level until you are 50 unfortunately. I know. I mean that while PvPing to level; if your character level actually could tic faster than your valor bar fills up behind it from losing all the time. Before; say you were level 39 and PvPing only to hit level 40; your valor bar would be full and capped not allowed to tic up to 40 before you hit the level, even if you lost every match, your valor bar would fill up to cap well ahead of your XP bar on a strict PvP only diet. Now I am wondering if it is possible that you ding 40 and your valor isn't even capped since you get more valor for a win and XP is based of time.

I have 24% boost from legacy and had a 25% boost on from Cartel market on my 39 mara and I was getting about 42k per warzone last night. That would take me at least 5 or 6 matches to level and it only takes about 3 matches to get a valor level before 50. I did win some fairly quickly though (spent an entire CW running to their turret to take it and then heading to the one we lost to take it back. 3 capped them for awhile during that match) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidichIorian Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 (edited) So they actually give that much experience? I'm so pvp'ing on my lowbie chars now followed by steamrolling the class missions as a 50. How are pvp'ers supposed to keep their gear up to date if they havent increases the credit or commendation rewards?

I guess it's been fixed from what people are saying but with both XP boosts me and my guild were gaining a level for every 4 war zones, and we were all at different level ranging from 12 to mid 40's.

I guess we'll finally get to hear what you think of 50 pvp as a sorc. We've been waiting a looooong time. It's much easier now btw, as long as you spec for bubbles.

LOL... yeah I've been slacking on the sorc to min/max marauder and gear PT. Level 40 now with the new changes that came in 1.4 I doubt I'll be complaining much. I HATE the bubbles though!!! Bubbles, rage/focus and Mercs need to be adjusted. And don't even get me started on the annihilation changes...

Technohic Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 I think now would be a good time for me to blitz through my sage before bubble nerf or any possible XP nerf Been working on my scoundrel; but I want to cap comms on him and don't want to risk it. I really want both main and offhand WH for him to start. Maybe by then, they will at least let me turn off legacy XP boosts when desired or something.

I was desperately trying to get my low level jug out of his useless phase. Man they're horrible at low levels.... thankfully the end result makes up for it.

vimm Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 I've always liked a grind for the idea of top tier gear and min/max characters being more of a rarity. So the elite stand out instantly. As it is now there a tons of min/max players who are wasting their time to put it nicely. So much gear and so little skill. So yeah... not only leveling but I wish the gear grind was tougher. I don't like that, because then one-class wonders shine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UGLYMRJ Posted November 16, 2012 Author Share Posted November 16, 2012 (edited) I don't like that, because then one-class wonders shine. Yeah... it really wouldn't make the masses happy. Just a personal preference... I think it goes back to my early Diablo days... you know? When the game was good and when rare drops and items were actually, well.... rare. An active player can literally grind 2 pieces of top tier PvP gear and much more than that in PvE per week. That's why I always laugh when people complain about the gear grind. I've seen far tougher grinds and this one is a cake walk. I think the high casual population plays into that though.

It's much better now than it was, too. That RNG from the bags was pretty painful, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DroidDreamer Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 BTW, are cartel market exp boosts supposed to stack with legacy exp boosts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came around shortly after that change but I've heard how bad it was. Sounds like bad design all around and even though I love a grind... I would kick a kitten if I ended up with 5 sets of the top tier PvP gloves. Which I heard was the case pretty often. BTW, are cartel market exp boosts supposed to stack with legacy exp boosts? I believe so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
