Before you could always get a few kills here and there even as a small party with new characters but back then (1-2 years ago) full sov people were actually quite rare to see in orvr. Now it's every second player and there is just zero chance against them.

Reading some of the rework changes, at first I thought it would be really nice but in hindsight my experience so far has been pretty bad compared to the system we had before.
Don't be surprised that you're going to lose to a grp of bis players who are roaming around. They are actually playing the game properly. If you roam alone or with few friends you're likely to get ganked by more organised and equipped players. Join a WB, start one or play a class that excels at 1v1/1v many. Or play SCs till you can find a grp. This game is very unforgiving to solo/ unorganized players.

Groups of players are roaming and capping zones. Be careful out there in the wild!

Best thing to do is go to a different zone for a bit if getting ganked.

Nothing. Its just a shitty excuse for a bad system.

People say join warband. Here is the situation. Join warband pray they dont have autoband and dont kick you because whatever limit they put ( Yes most put level limit and class limit). Nice you didnt got kicked. They are at Praag, in the graveyard area. You look around its empty, time to mount up and join your warband mates right? No its time for getting pistol whipped and skewed at the wc entrance. Okay okay I hear you saying move with other players right! You respawn and see some destro moving out. You walk near them but not as fast because lv 16 mount is not same speed with 38 one. Thats alright you are with other players. Nope same WH if not other WHs againt attacking you. You look around for help but people you move with didnt even stopped for you. They went their marry way to other warband.

Thank you for listening my story. This happened multiple times to me and others. Let alone I am also guilty of not stopping time to time.

T2-T4 oRvR is a big mistake literally new player filter. Only positive thing about this that they can see the situation early and decide to quit before investing and wasting more time. :D
How about you communicate with the warband leader? You can literally teleport to your warband, when they hold an RVR objective.
There are several ways already to reunite with your warband, pick one.
When WB leader doesn't bother with new people getting ganked, it's on them.

WAR was also like this in live or even worse, game is not meant to be an easy walk, anyway you can level up fairly easy doing scenarios and its fast but bear in mind that as a lvl 40 you can get ganked and even after reaching rr80 you will suffer travelling alone to find your wb.

Perhaps T1 and T2 should be merged and T3/T4 left aside to 30-40's players.
Anyway you will face different problems as zones will be more empty in those two lower tiers as the leveling process is quite fast anyway.

One consolation for you new people getting killed by R40s - you're only worth like 20 rps to them. Literally its a waste of time to kill sub 40s in this game as its not worth the effort. I dont even bother killing solo sub-40s anymore if I'm roaming unless they attack me first or there's multiple sub 40s gearing for a fight.

You don't need sov to be competitive. Something like sent/3 dom mix, which you can easily get at rr42 or so, is enough (speaking from personal experience). Sov is also mostly oriented at cookie cutter builds, on many builds it isn't bis (on my WE for example I only use 3 parts, since any more would mean actually losing stats). You do need to know how to spec though.

They do provide contribution though.

Was like that a year ago for sure, but with the current event whole warbands chase you as solo lv 30 player for an ore box or whatever...

Nah, this behavior is like on live server over a decade ago, to chase people until no tomorrow. At best you have some organized WB where the leader orders the players to go somewhere else, then they stop chasing.
In the end it isn't their fault that you are outnumbered and "red" usually means "dead".
Furthermore you need RVR kills for current event so you now got a valid reason to hunt anyone to complete event task.

thank killboard for making the ganking what it is today. sure, you were always going to be attacked if met by enemy on unfavourable conditions, but thank the killboard for we/wh groups scouring the map for any and all kills
