^ like i said on that very post, “by the time you figure out who you’re fighting against by the way they’re killing you, it’s too late to make the ‘fight or flight’ call”.
there’s a huge issue with, say, a thief misjudging a squishy ele for a tanky guardian with perma-aegis and throwing away his backstab because the guardian was 1- wearing light armor, and 2- had his staff on his back, thus the aegis effect is invisible.
as the game is right now, if you see someone with heavy armor and a staff, you know immediately that it’s a guardian, and that because of that, you have to break his aegis before unleashing a stronger attack.
that’s just the simplest example, and the easier to draw situations.
By the time you figure out what class/armor your opponent is and/or wearing, you’ll be dead already or close to dead.
You’re then making pvp much harder then it should by trying to analyze your opponent in a detailed manner.
Why not just look at the icon text to the players picture and go “he’s guardian which means this, this and this can happen” rather then “He is a guardian, wearing this gear, with those wpns which means this this and this will happen which means I need to do this this and this” That’s too much thinking, IMO.

Holy cow.. You put some time into that.
I love spreadsheets … lol Nice .. Thx for doing this.

Not a bad idea. Most games nowadays are adding in the Remodel features. Although I am not entirely sure why you guys are using the “must see the gear to pvp with them” line. Anyone can have good gear but play horribly.
I find it more challenging and fun NOT knowing how my opponent has geared himself. I rather figure out how to counter-attack his moves. IMO.
I had that problem then when I put in a support ticket, when I logged out and back in the next day it was fine.
Not sure what caused it or how to fix it. It’s definitely odd.
