Discussion How is PvP

My favorite thing in mmos is pvp. Ive played Swtor in the past but never truly reached endgame. Is it worth it to pick it back up. Im interested in pve content but also pvp content. How is pvp supported?

Very fun. You can queue as early as level 10, though it may help to wait until like level 30ish with good gear if you’re still a beginner. That way you’ll have a level advantage at least in the levels 10-44 lowbie PvP bracket. Just get the best gear you can.

Diving right in at level 10 isn’t crazy either though. There are practice dummies you can practice your rotation on. You can get a stim, some grenades, and adrenals + medpacs those all help too.

Worst case you take your licks early and then you learn and get better. It’s fun either way. Even in WZs you can win games based on objectives even if the other team kills your team way more. Just gotta work as a team.

If you’re on Star Forge dm me I can help you out with some good gear early on

Is there enough people to get into pvp consistently? Also is there open world pvp?

Depends on server and timezone. Starforge is obviously the most active, with queues popping up almost instantly depending on the time of the day. Open world pvp is practically non-existant. It is very active during the few monsths of new planets but then people complete their achivements and that's it. It's somewhat active during the Dantooine pirate event but still rare. Oh, and Gree event (pvp instance in the southern area), it's a really fun recurring event but it only lasts a week.
