Return of Reckoning

So people you meet in RvR lakes are not a gamble? And you always need someone else to start fight. Yeah, sounds like so much "fun".
At the same time in mid tier SC you alone can actually make a difference even if you bolstered noob. Of course all fun ends when you hit T4 where one guy in sov will decide who gonna win.

Steps to solve your problem:

1. Make a Witch Elf
2. Learn to play Witch Elf
3. Play solo and find stragglers.
4. Gank the stragglers.
5. Rejoice when they make a lv 1 destro alt just to be able to talk **** to you.

I love it. A new player joins and voices some concerns and a fair bit of you take this as an opportunity to dismiss what hes saying. This is a MAJOR problem with RoR and its chasing new players away and leaving a really sour taste is more seasoned players mouths.

The players in sov gear just die like anyone else against a more coordinated team with better class setup. Quit playing the gear card, it's a silly excuse.

Exactly.

We played well coordinated grp of ppl that know each other on mains for long time.

Premade in conq/sentinel/bloodlord around 50rr facerolled well geared opponents.

Gear helps... But skill > gear.

Just check on vids of people like Reynor007 or others when they totally facerolled people while being under 40

In all honesty it's a major problem is evert mmo, as they expand and thw gear gap widens. In a previous thread the suggestion of some gear capped scenarios came up and I think this is the best solution.

You can't punish players who have done the grind just to satisfy the new players who havn't yet put the work in but at the same time you need to give the new players a reason to do the grind or they will give up. It's not an easy one for any dev team, let alone a part-time one.

You need to understand that this is a part-time dev team, working for the love of the game and not able to use the current mmo pay-to-win tools to give newplayers a boost.

So insulting people who don't agree with you and creating bad stawman arguments is how you expect to get your point across?

It seems it is a "you issue" then. Others can play their class without hand-holding and gear excuses. Actually, it makes you look quite pathetic tbh.

wdym "others"? this is a dead game, while it should be played by thousands of people because of potential it holds.
