Guild Wars 2

I used to play PVP around release, and it was great… it didn’t pull in nearly as much people as WvW did, but honestly that was fine. Not everything has to do with PvP sometimes you gotta give a story, which I feel is done excellently through this game.

So that brings me back to Why change PvP, I recall near the beginning of the games release there was PvP gear and everyone was forced on an equal, we were all able to have the same stats and the same builds depending on whichever we chose. We were brought to an even playing Field.. Now I join pvp and I find that I can’t even stand 10 seconds of it because someone who’s farmed all the end game gear join and 1 shots me because his gear is 100x better than mine. How is that fair, when it used to be down to skill; Who was the better player and who used their class to their advantage.

I also understand from a developers stand point it can be hard to keep track of all the items that were already implemented.

It falls down to Why change something that already works.

Now for those who have been playing on this latest system, if you like it I understand your probably not the casual player who just wants to join a game and maybe win a 1v1 once every hour.

Gear stats is the same as always. Still the amulet that makes the stats, the PVE looks is just looks.

So what your saying is Im just getting unlucky with Premades :P

Are you sure you’ve used the new “PvP build” menu to re-setup everything after the patch?

Otherwise I have no clue. There’s no “better” gear in PvP, that hasn’t changed.

As to the reason for the change, I think it was mostly to lower the entry barrier for the PvE players, who want to keep their looks.

Kejumi, yes maybe

But like AlbertoUlkesh said, maybe u need to re-setup, if you hover you mouse to the top center screen the “PVP Build” will pop, check that, see if u selected any amulet/runes etc

There’s so much misconception. It’s amazing.
