I know I sure as hell am not. Base busts were expensive, boring, and nearly always laggy. Not to mention the controversy regarding them being an exploit, which I guess in a way they indeed were. My best week ever from base busting was about 60k - 65k GCW, which was not bad, except it was not fun. Restuss / static base PvP's GCW payout was much too slow and required far too much time, and often was laggy. My best week ever from PvP in Restuss and static bases was about 25k - 30k GCW, which required several hours, and eventually got old because rarely did I find it that much fun since there were no real goals. The new battlegrounds? In only three days, I have 77k GCW. They are fun, engaging, free (other than the cost of powerups / food / beverage you consume), lag-free, and I know for a fact that I am participating in the GCW as intended. It is my opinion that, with the new battlefields, who needs base busts (other than crafters) or Restuss / static base PvP?

Thanks, Lowracca.  Indeed, Hymsa. While I did PvP periodically before the battlefields (507 kills I believe), I just did not enjoy it nearly as much then as I do these new battlefields, so I did not as often as I perhaps should have. You (and all of -I- / VOX) are still a much better PvPer than I am, and probably will continue to be so for a long time if not forever, lol. It is still a lot of fun to PvP against -I- / VOX even if we are doomed to failure, when the rest of my group does not just decide to cash in their chips and surrender early, lol.

Ask for a few tips from some other Imperial players. Since you're jedi imo the best two jedi I've encountered lately are 'Ash and Merthos. Maybe they would be willing to help improve your skills. When I got back into game players like Tear and Zark showed me the ropes.
