What is your favorite role and class to play in PVP and why?

Question of the Week

- Introduce new game types (capture the flag, etc)- Bring back expertise- Cross faction queueing for all modes- More frequent class balancing- Fix bolster- More maps per game mode- Roll matching it balancing in normal PvP

Poll Link: http://www.strawpoll.me/13884623

Deliberation Redna introduction

• A brief history of PvP - launched w/ 8s, ranked 8s premade only, ranked revamp (arena) 4's and solo queuing, First Season began, expertise restriction, now valor
• Gear: Launched without expertise (fastest max gear via PvP), split in two w/ separate set bonuses, added expertise, then cxp removed all pvp gear.
• • Seperate stat never utilized well. Might be background work to set up but long term simplest class balance situation is to have modifiers dependant on pvp stat only for pvp and other stats solely for pve.
  • Set bonuses could adjust utilities as well.
• Quest rewards, the only way ranked can function is with people
• List the maps in the order they were released (btw huttball is what makes the game unique and interesting)
• Objective maps vs death match
• What about all ranked (suggest split in two)
• How the queuing works, and how we think it should

Sechari's Notes:

• Favorite role/class in PVP
• • Been playing Jugg tank lately
  • • Protection
    • Surrendered to not thinking DPS
    • Major medals
    • Escapes scrutiny
  • Sorc healer
  • • Survivability
    • Utility (extricate on Quesh huttball, phase walk, force push)
• Poll picks
• • Role matching or balancing in normal PVP
  • More maps per game mode
• Ranked PVP
• • Needs a whole lot more people playing
  • Not for the elites, would group up by rating
  • Offers the best unassembled components by far (esp. grouped).

Alise notes

• I hate Quesh ball
• The average pve player is afraid of PvP and the community. Think toxic folks play there

Majik's notes

• Love objectives!
• Honestly stupid ppl feed my troll
• Kills matter?

Valediction
