PvP Gear System Explained - Tacitus - SWTOR

[Schlumanga]

do you get seriously only like 3 centurion commendations each bag? :o doesn't a centurion set piece cost around 35 commendations or something :O ?

[FrackingRebels]

@Schlumanga You used to yeah. They changed it, I will probably upload a revised PvP system vid soon.  Now you get 15 Centurion comms and 7 Champion comms per bag, with a very small chance at getting an actual gear token. -Tacitus

[TheLord1sMyShield]

thanks for the vid. i had no idea what i was doing before watching this

[Lazorchikin]

How does one get Battlemaster's Commendations? not the gear from the box, the actual commendation.

[williamq4]

Thanks a bunch. This system has been hurting my head for a while. Now to get to level 50! XD

[deepelements]

wow thx allot man this system has been so confusing to me and I think i'm starting to get it now. God why did they make it like that it seems like over kill.

[jped816]

thx for the vid.

[uther10]

Nice vid and great production. I liked how you even showed the process to purchase commendations and the results as well instead of just a voice narration.

[FrackingRebels]

@uther10 Thanks man I am glad you enjoyed it! -Tacitus

[MrBojax]

And the chest piece drops!! Typical,maby after another 60 bags opened I might get that, Lucky fucker, I have seen a guy with lvl 7 Volor and have almost ALL champoin gear I'm lvl 42 and have just a couple of pieces. takes the piss

[FrackingRebels]

@MrBojax Yeah I had been waiting for that chest for quite a while haha. The bags are weird, and the source of quite a bit of animosity towards BioWare lol. -Tacitus

[MrBojax]

@FrackingRebels got 4 bags today first 1 had boots w00p :) nothing in the other 2 and the 4th bag, bootz!! getting the same piece again is insane.... just not meant to be for me lolz

[TVjoakim]

Thank you so much for making this vid!

[FrackingRebels]

@TVjoakim Glad you enjoyed it!  -Tacitus

[TrazedGaming]

Thanks for the vid man! awesome, I was about to reroll something else, but after watching your vids, i will most definatly keep on playing my marauder:p!. Is there any superios speccs so faR? im currently carnage, but i just keep on dying when lvling:p, in lvl 30.

[FrackingRebels]

@TrazedGaming Leveling is pretty difficult no matter what spec you are currently. Having Quinn out helps. Rage is probably easier for leveling because of Smash. You can take down mobs faster because you are damaging all of them instead of focusing one down. Play whatever spec is fun for you though. -Tacitus

[TheBigfiggity]

Thanks alot for the vid! Is there a level cap or just a valor requirement? What does a lower level character do for pvp gear?

[FrackingRebels]

@TheBigfiggity The Epic gear requires level 50, but only the Battlemaster gear has a valor requirement of Valor Level 65. As you are leveling up you can spend your commendations on blue PvP gear that gives great stats for your level, but no Expertise. That is a stat found only on Epic PvP gear. The blue vendor can be found on Dromund Kaas next to your trainer, or some gear can be found in this same area. -Tacitus

[TheBigfiggity]

@FrackingRebels Thank you very much!  You sir get a like and a subscribe! Look forward to anymore videos you put out.

[kjacobson351]

Your such a clicker OMG!

[FrackingRebels]

@kjacobson351 LOL I hate you too bro. -Tacitus

[CaptainSprinkles85]

@FrackingRebels

Hey thanks a bunch. I assumed pvp armor was only for WZ. Thanks

[khalidthekiller]

Tacitus please help..im lvling a marauder..but people keep telling me im going to be crap in pvp...what are your experiences with a lvl 50 marauder 

[FrackingRebels]

@khalidthekiller My personal experience is positive. If you take the time to learn the class you become a wrecking ball in PvP. The people saying Marauders suck in PvP haven't come up against a skilled one yet. Definitely not invincible though, you will still die for sure haha. -Tacitus

[khalidthekiller]

@FrackingRebels ahh okay i think ill just be patinet and lvl my marauder..and btw how do you deal with the lack of cc ? 

[FrackingRebels]

@khalidthekiller Try to do more damage than the other people lol. I just sit there and take it, and then open up on them when I get out of cc. -Tacitus

[khalidthekiller]

@FrackingRebels what about dishing out cc? is crippiling slash enough? what about aoe dmg?h

[FrackingRebels]

@khalidthekiller We have very little, if any, CC right now. One or two moves, but nothing that we can stop them and then wail on them with. AoE damage can be good if you spec into Rage. This makes your Smash ability do a pretty decent amount of damage with a 9 second cooldown. -Tacitus

[khalidthekiller]

@FrackingRebels but somthing i like to question whats the diffrence btween a rage jugger and a rage marauder..personally i thing caranage tree is better with gore 100percent armor ignore

[CaptainSprinkles85]

So is pvp gear only usable in pvp matches?

[FrackingRebels]

@CaptainSprinkles85 No you can use it in PvE too. PvP gear is PvP gear because it gives an Expertise stat that makes you take slightly less damage in PvP while giving slightly increased damage and healing. Not a huge amount, but enough to make it worth it for a big PvPer. Its good for raiding until you get PvE gear from the raids.  Then you can have two sets going. -Tacitus

[Drphillies]

thanks alot, very very helpful

[agge141]

[AfflitionDriud]

Thanks this helped me out

[djanigav]

Good stuff, thanks for this vid. Why then made it so confusing is beyond me though haha.

[FrackingRebels]

@djanigav Haha yeah figuring it out at first is kinda annoying. -Tacitus

[KhromeOnline]

I wonder how people were supposed to figure this out on their own, thanks for the vid :D

[FrackingRebels]

@KhromeOnline After you figure it out it seems easy, but its just figuring it out in the first place that is confusing haha. Glad you enjoyed it! -Tacitus

[JimmyisboredTV]

Thanks this helped a lot :D
