Bounty Hunters Tracer Missile tracks around walls. Troopers Grav Round doesn't.

Sith Inquisitors Lightning is instant; Jedi Consulars Projection has a startup.

Imperial Agents main stun is instant and leaves them free to move when used, while the Smugglers Dirty Kick roots them.

These give the Empire classes HUGE advantages in PvP.


Yes everyone knows the imps have all the perks in the mirror match ups, but you said "they deliberately made imperials to be favored", did they really say that o.o? I'm not trying to b a smartass or anything, I just honestly want to know

and if thats why you play; get Skyrim and pretend you're playing star wars rofl


without any idea that that existed; SWTOR has nothing going for it aside from box sales and people who forget to cancel their subscriptions in 6 days lol

There is still plenty of spawn camping, and also there are groups of Republic/Imperials that will just let you kill eachother over and over to farm massive amounts of valor.

Yeah, it is. They said that they deliberately made Imperials to be favored. They gave them superior skills. The mirrored classes thing is a lie.


No they aren't. You bring up Smugglers vs Agents, if you play Imperial most Imps feel Smugglers are unfairly advantaged compared to Agents. The classes ate similar, all the diffrences don't mean much to decent players. Bioware hasn't done anything wrong.

They could offer transfers for starters, many people want them, they just dont want to start a whole new character (its an escape from being put in huttball every 5 seconds)
They could lock down the faction like many many games before it have based on a weekly character played analysis.
They could offer incentives to create a new character, or open transfers and offer transfer incentives as well.
Theres more, but I don't really care to go on.


Republic players want transfers to Pub heavy servers, Imps don't want to leave our server if were not having trouble. Same with pub players who aren't.

Locking down a faction would end Korriban and Hutta and cut off the population on the early planets. Also if you didn't already have a character for all classes you have to wait.

Incentives aren't fair to the rest of the people. Servers will balance themselves out. My server used to have a 5:1 imbalance, it went down to 2:1, now its at 1.5:1. And mine is one of the heaviest populated servers.

What are you basing those numbers off of?

And yes the population on a certain planet might die but the reflecting planet on the repub would sky rocket as they would be funneled there instead so that arguement is pretty moot.
I meant faction transfer herp derp

A guild went around doing the numbers to see if they should stay or not.

This argument is... kind of ridiculous. It was stated simply earliar that the majority of servers are (in some cases 4:1/3:1 ratios) prodominately populated by the Imperial faction... A certain percentage of player base care about World PvP, so, you're saying that the Republic in this case has a chance if 25% of logged on players show up vs. roughly 9% of the Imperials? It's a mass population issue, and now* when you enter a warzone, there are a buttload of battlemasters. Lol. Right...


This unbalancr you speak from is derived from people wanting to play Imperial and not republic. Has nothing to.do.with the game itself. Even if they offer server transfers the issue wont be fixed. People will just end up in a server that is still imp dominated.

The other option is to cut off new imp characters being made.....welll, yeah right. Like that is going to fly. Personally I prefer being the underdog having to work.harded. Gives a nice smile when I win.
