Not being ready to use it is not same as not having access to it. They re pretty easy to to get just with cultivator. If you have 2 characters cultivator/apoth and butcher u will almost never run out of pots.with almost no gold investment needed. At lakes its pretty fair to assume that ppl use pots, on agreed duels you can always ask.
Drinking all pots on 2H tank and on mdps like choppa or slayer is big difference. I wanted to point out that pots give huge advantage to classes with high armor, high toughness. And about availability, even in your videos sometimes you were missing one of the pots.

Yes, tanks have good or great mitigation that makes healing point for point more valuable to them. But they pay for it with no mobility, so unlike stealth classes or rdps, they can't choose their fights or leave losing ones. This is one of the reasons defensive builds are so popular on tanks. Because, like the name suggests, you have to tank damage.

Rdps can have 100% damage mitigation by kiting properly and not getting hit at all. Stealth or rdps can get hit, leave combat, pot, then just come back to finish off a tank if it chooses. You can't expect tanks to not use a health pot so you can kill them, just as you can't expect stealth or rdps not to pot after they use an escape tool. Pots are just another tool that all classes have access to and are totally fair game in RvR for all classes, not just the ones that benefit from them the least.

Pots are not just another tool, it's just one more thing which ruin balance. Pots exist in a game because they are ok in big scale, it only allows to negate some mistakes in big battle. But we are talking about solo experience and in solo on top of cheese builds it's just awful thing.
imo pots should not work in combat and DoTs should not keep you in combat too.

And what about avoidance stats? Dodge, disrupt, parry and block negate all damage PASSIVELY, without any sKiLl required from the player. Some people stack these to obscene amounts to hide their complete lack of SkIlLz.

IMO, avoidance stats should cap at 25%.

Thanks to anyone that doesn't stack avoidance stats, you make soloing possible.

I feel like Solo roaming is in a better spot regarding the community and players.
And if i meet a full regen Chosen or full regen IB i usually just walk away ;)

Getting ganked as a solo roamer should be expected. doesnt everyone get ganked by the bigger fish? doenst matter if your in a wb, 6-man or even smaller than that.
Since you are solo roaming in a RvR-Zone you should look for fair fights but never expect one. Thats at least how i keep my sanity.

Thank you Pahakukka for all your great content and great duells along the way! keep it up please :)

And dps healers should lose their healing abilities...

The main issue is that ppl won't leave u the *bleep* alone when you're solo. They will always ruin your fun with 4 v 1/8 v 1, etc. Stacking defense in a situation like that makes sense. This game seems to be weighted toward mitigation anyway.
