Return of Reckoning

I have a really big issue with emblems/medallions in game, as a healer i have to get Medallions to just get one thing of gear, and in T4 that is just countless hours of oRVR to get any kind of influence or even get get a medallion to drop of an enemy player then having to roll on it with a Warband. But with emblems i can easily do SC's 2-3 hours or more a day and get DPS gear more readily. As a healer i feel as if i am at a big disadvantage on the field of battle with that. Can we have just one currency for both SC's and rvr or have the option to buy Healing gear and DPS gear with either Medallions or Emblems.

They get rolled in parties, not warbands. Sounds like you need to befriend some tanks and dps to get easy medallions.

Well yes they roll in parties, i do run around in parties with a tank and good dps. But it still takes a good amount of time to get any type of gear. It also doesn't help that people have been hiding in keeps all day and xrealming ins't to kind on that either.

We've mananged to gear 3 or 4 healers in annihilator, and 2 tanks. It's not that bad once you get rolling. Seeing that most dps don't need the RvR set, and tanks seem to be better off with 2pc ruin/3pc annihilator, it shouldn't take you long.

It just takes time and patience the gear wasn't meant to get quickly.

When you are in a warband, it makes little difference if you're a dps or a healer. The worst thing is to be in a party with low dps capability - this will happen but it won't be the rule.
The only disadvantage that you have is that you can't roam solo, which is something that can be quite beneficial sometimes. You should also keep in mind that you can buy the gloves and the boots and if you are a bit patient you can find them at a good price (and thats a 130 medallions minus) and like Bacta said, Annihilator wasn't meant to be earned quickly in the first place.

As a healer one of the best method to farm renown / medallions is 2 man: 1 healer 1 ranged dps , if you attack or defend there is more chance to kill and get renown/medallions.
But i agree healer takes more time to get medallions compared melee dps , if mercenary was for healer was better imho!

I agree, good call Bacta.

yea i does take longer for healers to get gear. I am sitting on Devastator (which isn't bad gear till you can get annihilators) but as a DPS i have two paths, SC'S and RvR. I would just like to see that as a healer i can ass well do both paths just like DPS can.

I am not saying i want gear more quickly i fully understand the grind for gear, i am saying that its easier for DPS to get gear aka SC's and RvR as a healer i have to mainly do RvR to get gear that's a bit unfair.
