3 to 1 currency conversion (medalions to emblem) needs to happen.

Post#1 » Tue Jun 25, 2019 5:54 pm

Subject says it. I play dps AM exclusively and there is absolutely no gear options I can spend my RvR currency on.

Another alternative to 3 to 1 conversion could be the ability to purchase scenario weapons for RvR currency, because classes that require scenario gear are at a severe disadvantage when it comes to gearing up.

Would really put the nail in the coffin if you could get the scenario stuff from RvR.

hence the 3 to 1 conversion rate. Participating in SCs would still be the optimal way to farm it.

Conversion rate is irrelevant: if people can accumulate scenario gear from zerging zones (as per normal), they will stick to the route of least resistance, and this would undoubtedly have an adverse effect on scenarios, with even fewer people finding reasons to queue for them.

Riiiight

Cause you know the way the current system is where SC barely pop at all makes acquiring SC currency very efficient

And on top of that it’s ok that you can acquire “main spec” gear by “zerging in rvr” quickly for the most part

but offensive tank gear, dps heal gear and defensive mdps gear should be harder to acquire and In turn their respective play styles harder to play?

Why?

if this Currency conversion will happen, SCs will die. and with that the entire game. Think about those who worked months to get stuff from SCs. days of farming, struggle and pain. And now I see this suggestion out of nowhere which is not taking into consideration this part? I am speechless

I don't think converting rvr medals to sc medals is the answer, however there is a huge problem with dps AM (and shaman) gearing.

There is no dps alternative for the subj weapon, the gutslime weapon is healing (as are the other lair boss weapons), the 45 sc weapon pretty much stinks and the 39 version is arguably better.

Outside of that, beastlord is a hybrid set that leans more towards healing (a wp buff as its 4p bonus instead of int), same with ruin, sentinel is a healing set, and Onslaught is a healing set, and imp doesn't exist anymore.

I would be more inclined to have a dps version of gutslime, have the stats on the 45 sc weapon tweaked, and make sent hybrid/dps.
