As it is, you'll enjoy the reward more at the end.
Also if someone has 10 alts, the vendor weapons are almost as good. 1% crit isn't going to transform your squig alt you never play into a BEAST. Just sayn'

The major thing now is that at least when you win a sc, you have something tangible that represents a move forward towards better gear for your character. Where before we had nothing of the sort, just RNG.
The only thing I don't personally like, is the fact that SC's are now sort of mandatory. I know it wasn't like this on live, but adding emblem drops to players in ORvR would create another avenue for players to get those weapons. Spamming SC's would still be the fastest method, but with players dropping emblems in ORvR you are not forced too.
Medallions and emblems could even be transformed into a single currency. Of course keep takes would have to be adjusted to reward only 1 instead of 5. This though would most likely fall under the "artistic licence"? of the devs and how they want to handle the game.\
tldr - creating new ways to acquire the weapons is better than just making it easier to get them in sc's

You only had one currency for Scs and oRvR at the end on live. But most people liked the old one better I think.

Hello,
you Need to understand that t2 is the at the Moment the end Tier. So you will not earn Emblem that fast like it was at the myhtic Server in t2.
The Argument "i have 5 toons so i have to Play a lot sc" is invaild for me. Ok you are right if you want the sc weapons for every toon you Need to Play them a lot. But why you should have on every toon the "best" weapons. If you have many toons you Need to invest more time to gear them up. It is that simple.
But I think we will lower the Prices for t1 weapons soon.
regards

Emblems could use a boost, seeing as influence gain too feels a bit slow concidering there used to be ways to gain it faster? Or am I mistaken? Picking up ordnance used to give inf right?
Anyways, it felt faster before

To an extent i agree with you, t2 is the end tier at the moment and it shouldn't be easy but 1 emblem for a win and 0 for losing is extremely low.
If you are not a 24/7 premade player you can easily play 5 sc's in a row without winning, an hour for nothing or mayb a few emblems dropped from players to share between 12, not to mention rvr is now pretty much dead because for atleast the next month ppl are going to be queing sc's nonstop. Casual players will likely never get there sc weapons either.
While i dont want to see it easy and i will in the end get a staff for my sham my alts will never have enough emblems to get an sc weapon, again i dont want it easy i want it challenging but doable.
I dont think there is anything wrong with having the amount of emblems rewarded the same as it was on live(and remove player drop emblems) you would still require to win 30 odd sc's for a 2h, something that will take effort but not a huge grind.

I am still wondering why people complain about stuff that you didnt even get before?
You always played your freaking SCs and got NOTHING but xp/rp. Then they implemented better Playerdroprates -> people started to complain they want more. Now you even get something extra extra out of a Thing (the SC) you do play anyway and even DARE to complain? Wow. Ungrateful scumbags at its best.
If someone offers you a free Beer at a Pub you gonna spit into it and tell him you wanted a Cuba Libre instead, dont you?

I find the SC emblem a wonderful idea.
However i got two main concerns
The ORvR emblem gain should be at the same rate of SC Im afraid ppl will float the SC queues standing at warcamps wile rvr lakes will get more and more empty ,until most ppl have their items.
Keeps capture (mabe BOs too?) could award more emblems ,and zone lock could give a greater deal of them too.
Players that enjoy orvr (and i think there are many) wont feel forced to do SCs that often in order to keep up with gear.
My second thought is about the win/lose ratio withing the SC .
0-1 is not just imho.
Like its been mentioned before a 1-3 (loss /win ) format would be better.There need to be a small award for the losing side , after all theres been some effort

You could increase emblem price for items if necessary ofc.
Well thats my 2c
