Make WAR a RvR-Game. Say no to pve-item drops!

[ThrazKing]

Well... somehow you are right. PvE gear was essential until the ridiculously overpowered rr90/100 gear was released Another thing that should be undone on this server.

Seems to me you didn't like WAR at all and maybe should look for another game?

WAR was and is the greatest game of all time (for me). Mythic however, wasn't that great

Also, I don't care about t2+, as we don't have any t2+ right now. We have t1 and some trolls in Altdorf are dropping the best currently obtainable equipment. This is ridiculous in a RvR-game Imagine all the item-farmers would kill players instead. Hell, we might even have some **** RVR-action.

@ThrazKing: when exactly did you start playing WAR? Do you even remember the times when you had to get golden bags from fortresses to get invader gear? Not talking about warlord/sov

Oh I remember the golden bags fondly. But that isn't PvE. It's PvP. You're still technically fighting against other players just to get that reward. When I led warbands in the lower tiers, I always took my group to the best fights. It's that Greenskin mentality. I say to hell with those that only want undefended keeps for garbage. I'll take a massive battle over prissy PvE crap any day.

And this is exactly the reason why i think that the best items should drop from players. Talking about t1 for now as there is no t2. And even in t2 the available rvr-jewelry was rather bad. I just don't see any point in farming trolls when you could slay players instead. Grinding mobs is so WoW. And stop talking about lvl 40/rr100 etc. We're far, far away from that point.

Imagine the action in rvr when +12 str rings in t1 would drop from players...

@mods: sry for the double posts. Edit button doesn't show up on my mobile phone.

Ok but can the best gear be a bit easier to obtain? You wait 2 hours for the lair, then have to fight off the enemy faction usually guilds communicating thru vent and then when all is said and done the boss might only drop lame gale gear

At least a 100% chance for a blue item each time? Or make influence rewards a viable alternative to lair gear

There's always the option of vendors selling everything (if that is feasible of course) in reasonable prices so that everybody can focus on rvr rather than the farmville version of WAR most play these days.
I have to admit i am forced to do that as well and it is pretty boring.
After all this is still Alpha so many many things can and will change in the future i am sure !!!

In short,I disagree I really enjoy the way the server is set up now. The only way I could see improvement without losing a large chunk of the player base is have players from world PvP or RvR drop some tokens, or reward some RvR victory, and turn the tokens into gear via vendor. As for the troll farms, it's a solid way for players to farm gear. Don't want to? Go to the AH and buy it. Don't have money? Do RvR quests. That being said, we're only in tier 1, I don't believe the game is in any condition to be judged or changed as of yet.

Your post makes as much sense as your signature

Also, talking about t2 makes no sense atm as we have no t2. Just t1.

And I don't know if we will ever get a t3/t4, cuz this requires a rather big player base and a stable population thoughout all tiers.

And please remember what happened to the original WAR. Therefore, at some point, the devs HAVE to make a cut and move into another direction. Just recreating the original game without any changes will lead to the same end as the original WAR.

this game didnt last long because mythic/EA wanted to try something new that lot of peopel didnt need , this game wasnt ready at all , they did bad marketing ... The idea and the lore of the game was great tho , after all , this is warhammer , the ancestor of almost all role playing things ... AND i really hate EA for that
