Skummy Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 (edited) Since there was no talk of bolster or max ilvl in pvp during live stream, I'm guessing this is like wow bfa have to raid to get bis for pvp? Edited July 29, 2022 by Skummy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uuno Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Id make the assumption that they will bolster still, no mention = no changes. It would be nice if they didn't bolster augments honestly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teclado Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 We will have Thyrsian 328. I would imagine gearing is going to be the same process as it was for 326 (weekly crate = guaranteed upgrade of your lowest item rating). Also we will have mods, although I have no idea if there will be a mod vendor or not. Might just be whatever mods come in the weekly crate piece, or whatever come in a piece that you buy from the vendor. https://vulkk.com/2022/07/29/bioware-previews-new-swtor-7-1-content-and-introduces-the-new-team-leaders-with-a-livestream/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like 330 was better than 328 in pvp, 2 ilvls didnt bother me so i didnt grind nefra. But 328-340 is a big difference in power.

Uuno Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 330 was bolstered down I believe, the same will be the case with 340. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skummy Posted July 29, 2022 Author Share Posted July 29, 2022 (edited) 330 was bolstered down I believe, the same will be the case with 340. It wasnt was giving more stats with 330 gear lol, So im guessing vet r4 340 gear will be bis for pvp. Edited July 29, 2022 by Skummy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was giving better stats yes but that's because it was broken. So that's two different conversations. Their intentions are to cap the gear rating in warzones. Whether or not their cap/bolster thing works is a different story I guess 😂😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They never fixed it... I legit just asking ill do the raid, Ive done all of the raids at least on hardmode so its no biggy just no clarfication.

Loadsamonie Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 What about augments? Are they going to work in 7.1 PvP or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samcuu Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Last thing I heard was that augments were being fixed in 7.1 so yes I believe they will be working as of the 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I'm moving up to i284 purple augments once I start acquiring i328 gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samcuu Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Thank god! I really hope so. I did a bit more digging and it in fact has been officially announced that augs will work in 7.1 👍👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They never fixed it... I legit just asking ill do the raid, Ive done all of the raids at least on hardmode so its no biggy just no clarfication. I'm assuming the pvp population is just so low that they figure it's hardly worth mentioning. They didn't even tell us that they disabled augments for the longest time. I remember having to go to my Rishi stronghold and play around to figure out what was happening. I do recall the high end pve gear being superior at first, but I thought that was fixed in a later patch. That's what the patch notes said, anyway. I could probably go dig them up. EDIT: it was 7.0.2 patch notes Level Shift is now correctly scaling gear down in PvP matches. Edited July 31, 2022 by teclado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
