Learning a class is done with time spent and dedicated to the class, what tier you when you do said learning is absolutely irrelevant additionally because the game changes so much when you reach T4, no one is an expert of their class by the time they reach t4

The whole not knowing their class argument sounds like hogwash to me as does the whole cheapening leveling experience thing as if you want to go back and do lower level content you can just debolster

People really shouldnt be coming into t4 with renown in the teens and green gear. It might be ok for those that have been brought into the game to get babysat by their pre mates. As a pug healer its hell trying to heal tanks in pve green gear. Since the xp boost was removed scs have been much more enjoyable.

They should wear ahni set, like in good old times, when people came from t3 to t4 wearing sovrin sets with 80rr :lol:

You seem to be under the impression that I don't know how ridiculous it is, even with x3 XP. I reverted the experience bonus because I was sick of listening to the complaints from people who thought they knew better and as it turned out did not.

Given that I don't care either way, you can poll it if you want.

SC haven really been enjoyable for months now. Since this Order Rdps spamming has begun it's a pain in the ass. I will keep saying it, even if it will not get heard. Rpds need a serious nerf to their damage, especially the Order ones since they mostly got the better utility.

The tier that needs to go and doesnt benefit anyone is t1. You start off with none of a classes key abilities. Most classes dont even have the basics until they are level 10. No guards no rez. Most just zerg centre. You cant go from t1 gameplay to t4. Really starting in t2/3 and doing rvr is where the game starts for real anyway.

The issue is that rdps have to be able to kill through heals and in the small time frame a guard is removed. So in a pug sc with less or lacking them the metas totally different. War had a huge emphasis on tanks that other mmos hadnt. A flat 50% guard is huge. It is what dictates where dps levels have to be. To make the meta more balanced in the pug environment guard would need changing and then you risk sidelining tanks.

I feel for you. Often players think they know what's best but don't have the single pane of glass to view all of the metrics of a game to make informed decisions. Developers do. In this case I believe the experience revert has only harmed the game and I am just 'coming back' from Live. T2/T3 is painful, boring, and soul sucking and when I was told there was once 3X exp I realized I missed something special. It's often the squeaky wheel that gets their way despite everyone else saying it's the wrong way.

Would a bribe work? I'll paypal a $150.00 'donation' to the progress of the game and... Cough.. The development time to put 3x back in immediately...

^devs won't take any money for any reason because of legal troubles.

@Az is it possible to add a command to allow t2/3 players to multiply their experience gains? That would be best of both worlds. IF people want to take it slow and enjoy T3 they can, if people are playing during dead times(seems like most of the time tbh) and want to get to t4 asap they can.
