Return of Reckoning

Good luck with DPS shammie! I still have a lot of fun with mine.

My advice for leveling: pure RvR

As ranged DPS, especially as u do magic damage and have long range, you can easily solo blob surf and you'll quickly wrack up the renown.

The renown you earn from a kill takes into account your ...

No class is good at all scales, so you've gotta pick based on your preferred playstyles.


Shaman is fantastic solo when ur in DPS spec. Maybe hybrid too, but i have no experience with hybrid setups. You can do decent damage, you can kite really well, and you've got self-healing. But, its weak in ...

This is just part of the cycle of scenario matchmaking!


Step 1 - Unbalanced SCs resulting in heavy 1-sided fights

Step 2 - Community complains about lack of balance

Step 3 - Devs explain that if you want better matchmaking, you're gonna have less pops. Are u really sure?!?!?

Step 4 - Community ...

I've long been in favour of lowering the costs of PvP gear in this game. I dont think it really serves much purpose except maybe keeping people playing a bit longer as they finish a grind.

But most of the grind lies in renown rank, rather than crests.

My first character (BO) and most recent ...

If I were gonna do 3 factions, I think It'd be:

Good: as they already are

Evil: Chaos, Chaos Dwarves, Dark Elves

Horde: Greenskins, Skaven, Beastmen


You've got some factions that mostly "choose" to be good, some factions that mostly "choose" to be evil. And then you've got our friends the ...

So you hit lvl 40, only heal gear you get is from GB and than from LV. Shield got somehow so mutilated I dont even know how to spec anymore. What else to do, forcing WP players go with GB gear zerging until you are a bit lucky and get some CH22? Or is there some spec someone can post where u can ...

Whilst I don't have any darkpromise, I'd take the set that gives increased crit damage.

I don't think any SH gear has increased crit damage (i may be wrong....) so it stands out to me. Squigs can, if they want, hit pretty high crit chance so extra crit damage should be pretty powerful.

Its not uncommon, I've never managed to get that done when I've been leveling up a new character.

I just don't think many people queue exclusively for solo skirmish in general, and with the lower pop in T1 its just more likely that the scenarios are popping for other reasons than solo skirmish.

Ahh, that’s a significant gotcha. Thanks for the heads up. Yeah, the 1300+ war crests to complete my invader ward doesn’t look too bad now. I’m going to see how many crests I can accumulate between mid 76 to 80 and go from there. I’m averaging 1 k per week so not a major hurdle.


If you've ...

You should absolutely do PVE to get the equivalent ward if you can. The time investment you save is huge, even if you have to run a certain dungeon 4 times.


I actually meant to ask about PVE wards in my original post. Since I’ve not participated in any dungeons yet, can I jump right into BS ...
