Guild Wars 2

So I played at launch, and then when you went into pvp you were level 80 and had a different generic set of gear and weapons. Everything was equal and standardized and it didn’t go off your pve character progression at all. So what changed? Why now is everything based off the pve side? What happened to pvp as a whole? How am I expected to learn how to play when nothing is standardized anymore?

Esports has ruined about every single thing they got their grimy hands on. Has esports ruined this too? It’s no longer a fair and fun playing field anymore. I have no idea what I’m doing and was trying to find out where to learn. I looked at the sticky and there is no hot join thingy and so I just tried the random practice whatever button. I always get put on a team that is getting slaughtered and I end up dying in like 3 secs flat because I’m level 54 versus 80, instead of being all 80’s in standard equipment like it used to be.

Why did you ruin the games pvp, and arguably the core part of the game?

So where do I go now when you start pvp? Can I start doing it at any level or do I have to be 80 on the character?

All stats are still normalized, they just changed the way skins work so you have one look across the entire game (PvE/PvP/WvW) rather than one for PvP and one for PvE/WvW. Your PvE level has absolutely no impact on your PvP stats.

Hmm, so is it normal for me to last like 5 secs in pvp? Yes I know I don’t know what I’m doing, thats the entire point. Where do I go to learn how to figure out what I’m doing.

Playing on the pve side I have no problems, jump over to the pvp side and I die in like 2.5 secs.
