farmhammer WTF

[RyanMakara]

At the live game there was some kind of powerlvl services. You know, your char constantly killing someone in the RVR, then res and again. A tons of gold, loot, medals, etc.
Here we have free accounts

But I didn't said anything

And i thought just the question alone was retarded. Do you btw know that ^this marks you as potential abuser , right?

I don't see how? He spoke of a common exploit used in the dead version of the game, of which no progress other than the player's skillset with the Warhammer classes has transfered over.

@OP: Killing an enemy has a 50% chance for a token drop. I dont really see ANY issue here with getting ones gear. Perhaps you should not play solo i assume

Actually, it's 20% chance per kill, with doubled chance (40%) at BOs and keeps. It's kind of a grind if you only play in zerg WBs, having to rely on defended keeps for your medals (which is what I suspect most of the "PLS NERF GRIND" whiners do), which is why I'd say solo ganking grants you more medals over time.

Step 1: Join a guild.
Step 2: Guild WB will get more killing blows than PUG one.
Step 3: Roll on loot that drops from killing blows, including medallions.

it is rvr game not pve, ppl are here for rvr, (dont care how it looks, zerg or not) rvr is our focus
so why we couldn't get gear some easy way
common player who log for 3-4 hours of play have very hard task to do, instead play rvr he must farm,

Farm what? Seriously, Emblems with recent SC reward system are not that hard to get - especially when someone plays 4h/day. You can quite easily obtain Stalker by literally doing what you want to do: focusing on RvR. You can buy green gear on AH, which is comparable with RR/Influ gear. So I don't really get what "farm" you're talking about? What is the problem - not being 31/40 right after character creation in full Devastator with rare talis slotted, SC weapon and backpack full of blue heal/armor pots?

if you even win all your sc by 500 it is 6 emblems, it is still 82 sc to win by that
why I must farm so long sc? I want focus on rvr
I don't what to change system, just to reduce costs of gear, weapons and armour, is it so hard to write 400 instead 490? or 70 medallions instead 100 for helm?

PEOPLE ARE USED TO "FUN PRIVATE SERVERS" WITH HUGE XP bonus and modded/ different gear, higher levelo cap. this game has always been about the PvP end of

[gorbacheff]

its not all that long if you think about it. your not meant to get your gear that fast. dont like it go play world of warcraft. i hear thats got stupidly easy these days

Well, SCs are still PvP content, right? And SC weapon are not really that powerful that you can't play without them. I do like best gear and talis, too, but playing without that "+2DPS and / +1% melee crit"weapon does not ruin my rvr/sc experience.
I think this is "I want it all and I want it now!" attitude.

[bangkokeight]

i am confused.. people do realise that you do not need the best gear in the game to actually play it right?

If you are the type of person that only wants to play if you have the best of everything and can pawn other people who have spent more time playing than you have then go ahead and farm...

if you are a casual gamer who wants to play a couple of hours here and there then play and have fun.. you will get the gear eventually anyway, you might even have fun and become a better player whilst you are waiting...

[ropuch]

That's my point

82 straight wins.

One sc takes at max. 15min.

82/4 -> 20,5h of sc playing. Can be done in one week.

Ok more realistic equation.
If you dont run premade we astimate a 50/50 wins loss with que pop 5min.
if you once got a sc and insta que got nearly awlays instant inv and some scs only take 5min but we dont take that in comparison.

164::3 -> 54.666h of sc play. you play 3-4h hours a day? After 2-3 weeks you have your weapon.

For the Best weapon in the game its not a lot. Consider it how long you need for the best weapon in game in other games. It takes months to get it.

If you get a premade for scs, you win more than 50% and an sc needs ~10 min -> profit.

If you still think this is to much, then plz quit because most people appreciate the current status and your talking about "the people" is not right, use the term "a minority".

Devs can always hop on the "casual" train. What i am trying to say lets wait 2-3 weeks so the hardcore guys have the end gear. Rise med drop rate so casuals close the gear gap quicker.
