Lower Tier RVR

Post#1 » Mon May 23, 2016 1:13 am

So when RVR got changed to its current mode lower tier rvr got changed as well. No more experience, renown, or influence in the lower tiers for flipping BOs and keeps and stuff means it's much slower to level in the only fun way to level in this game. With leveling so slow this is going to hurt newer players and those who don't want to power level their way up to RR40. Is there a way to restore the old RVR reward system to lower tiers so people aren't immediately turned off by how slow leveling is? The lower tiers aren't super active now that tier 4 is live so it makes sense to reward activity in those tiers and make leveling through pvp possible again.

The rewards were only removed from BOs. You still get rewards for taking keeps in tiers 2 and 3, and locking the zone in Tier 1.

notagain is right. I got 1.5 ranks (12-14) On my shammy after like 3 hours of rvr.

Ive leveled all my characters with sc and rvr which have now bogged down to a crawl with all the recent changes. When T3 was cap the game was fun and one didn' t have to spend hours playing to get some xp/renown or influence. Current system is just boring and there is very low incentive to play the game anymore.

Not only were the rewards from BOs taken but currently taking keeps takes hours and the success rate is way worse than before. Also the opponents ( other players ) seem to avoid fights and the xp/influence income is extremely bad. Also the kill quests have changed "fixed" but now the gold income is pretty much zero too. Yesterday I played hours and rewards were minimal and as soon as the WB started wiping the WB leaders found other things to do and soon the WB was disbanded.

Sorry to say but I already miss the times when T3 was cap, huge fights, character progression and had the gold to pay for both flying to other zones but to buy some stuff too. Cant imagine why a working and fun system was nerfed.

You're welcome to leave for a couple weeks while we work out the RvR system now that T4 is online.

Lvling seems fine to me.
But it's maybe just me, an oldschool-player that is used to not instagib to max-lvl in 2 hours.

I've noticed much less income too. I played my lv 16 SH a cpl hours last night and got half a lvl NA time. There was no one defending at all. I also only have 5 gp due to travel costs and still can't afford my lv 10 mount at lv16.

Does that make sense?

I wondered why it seemed like such a crawl in levels for T1 it honestly is pretty slow but, like wargrimnir suggested I will check back in a few weeks to see if they buffed the rates for other tiers so we don't spend all our life trying to get to T4

I think the only problem is t3 since its less active then t1,t2. It's ok active during night time EU CET. I'm currently lvling my dok and zealot. Getting roflmstomped even tried to organize premades but ppl are lazy do group up instead they like to lose. I understand you released t4 recently so I will give some time and see what will happen.
