Why u hate orvr

[Echtelion]

Overall I really have to commend the work of the developers so far; I cannot express how grateful I am to you guys for bringing WAR back to us.

Although I have to say I'm truly saddened about the way ORVR is getting immediately maimed every time it gets some meaning back.
I mean the fact that the players don't get rewards (or very little compared to battlegrounds for example) for participating in orvr makes it so that practically everyone just does scenarios in order to level, gear up and get renown, effectively killing one of the most enjoyable aspect of the game: the large-scale battles for keeps and battlefield objectives.

Don't get me wrong I have nothing against scenarios, but I think one should have a viable choice when it comes to how he wants to farm for gear\renown. I mean orvr is fun and I think everybody would want to see more of it going on on the server...

If it's really not possible to bring back the medallion drops from zone locks in a balanced way, I'd suggest maybe just to add more medallions to low level bags and substantially increase the number of green\white bags dropped on keep take so that at least a larger number of people can get something useful for their efforts when joining an orvr warband.

Just my 2 cents. Keep up the great work guys

The thing is - people need to start reading what devs say. Current state of rvr is temporary, they are preparing complete overhaul of it but don't have the resources/tools yet, therefore they can't just give out to everybody annihilator sets just yet. And if they changed the system to something similair what we had before there would be risk of another wipe due to exploiters and even more whining than with the ruin gear.

And scenarios are fully functionable, safe, and items from sc's are not expected to be wiped so people are now going for gear that won't get removed.

So clench your teeth, participate in whatever orvr is happening to find bugs and report whatever issue you find, the rise of orvr is on it's way!

Of course, everything is temporary, this is an alpha after all.

I am simply saying it's a pity not to have a viable solution for orvr and I was just making a suggestion that may help solving the issue, if only temporarily. If it can't be done oh well I'll just wait of course; the intent was merely giving a small contribution with my own idea, certainly NOT complaining, since, quite frankly, I doubt ANYONE is entitled to make complaints for a good thing they are getting for free, and just thanks to the good will and hard work of some people...

True that, but even implementing a 'bandaid' requires resources and time

from what I understand, Aza mentioned that the chances to get bags is increased for tanks/healers and for people in a perfect 2/2/2 group. This encourages people to form optimum group setups within a warband instead of joining a warband and going afk, yet still getting loot.

basicly giving the already super strong premades an even better chance to teamplay... ( not ) just stick with ur 6 man instead of wb vs wb and steal all loot from wb thus making ur 6 man uber strong within small amount of time ( smart move )... really /clap

Note: This is PQ contribution. RvR contribution does not exist and will not until the next RvR system design.

[areanda]

thank yu azarael. to make that clear nothing said before by me.

in my modest opinion the carrot on the stick need to be the rr like it was in war not the gear that we have in ror, but for rr works you need to give them in bo´s and keeps, just 1 or 2 points for a BO´is good ;p

Oooh, my bad. Thanks for clearing that up!
