BALLISTA TOURNAMENT

[Urteil]

Honestly gear is pretty much what propels players in this game at this point. I mean look at sky, before augments (after aby ofc) no one did it. Now it's actually very profitable to simply farm pops and sell in your bazaar again.

Why don't people do Ballista? Nothing rewarding but a sense of epeen that doesn't really matter elsewhere in the game. Put gear in there, boom. It would be flooded with interested players.

Most people who actually give PvP a shot are astounded by how fun it is, there's just nothing pushing players into it.

And as far as SE adding gear etc? Cool I guess but it would be nice if they put things in to ballista like massive amounts of cruor/exp/cosmetic items/useful teleports/a point system that allows you to obtain PvE gear/that wouldn't take away the need for people to go into PvE and pursue better gear. This way the game can use PvP to be an extension of PvE.

I hope they do add something, whether its titles, neat consumables, some type of gear. But then probably that gear would just be useful in PvP and that wouldn't bring anyone running over. For PvP to be popular especially on the scale you are advocating the reward needs to be applicable to the rest of the game. Oddly enough PvE gear is good PvP gear you just have to know what you are doing.

PvE gear is amazing PvP gear, and there is gear that is often overlooked and never used that finds amazing uses in PvP. What you want is a specific set of equipment just for PvP and I'm simply saying that it isn't truly necessary as these niche pieces of gear already exist. Just look for them.

There are pieces like Mekogai, twilight, alot of the AF2 etc. which you can then modulate your gear with these odd pieces to cover your ass, and the awesome thing is they aren't too terribly hard to obtain.


"How is it not a flaw that you have to gear for your specific enemy:"

Are you kidding? Picking the right tool for the job is a basic skill we do every day when creating gear sets, this is just an extension of that.

Your entire argument is based on your laziness and wanting to wear full DD gear in situations that don't call for it. In PvE you change your gear for the right situation and you meet failure when using the wrong gear.

All I hear is "I can't do this." "I don't want to gear properly." "I don't know what the hell I am doing."

Its really funny when I know a few warriors who do very well with hybrid setups /sch and use their retalatino and varied gear matchups to overcome this weakness. And in TvT they gear for straight DD but even then use pdt/mdt. Again they



You are by far the most incompetent PvP'er on the planet and yet act like your opinion should be taken seriously when you say the most amateur, dipshit things I've ever seen.

I don't think you PvP because if you followed 1/10 of your own advice or anyone did, they'd achieve such terrible results its not suprising why they would want to quit or hate the system.
