The last installment of the "Choose Your Side" videos from the developers of Star Wars: The Old Republic has been released, pitting the Smuggler class against the Sith Warrior. You can watch it over on the official site.
I think they have done a good job choosing the classes to pit against each other for these videos. In this case, we have one class (Smuggler) that focuses on ranged and tricky combat to take down enemies going against the Sith Warrior, a class that is almost entirely melee-based. The fact that the developers are split on the winner gives me a bit of reassurance as to what to expect from PvP balance in SWTOR.
Whether or not PvP is balanced is yet to be seen on my end since my current highest level is three. Have any of you been high enough to experience PvP in SWTOR? If so, how was it?
