Are cracks in the Armoury System beginning to surface?

[Abriael]

Armory system was a problem from day 1... the thread is like understatement of the year.

The armory system is a problem only for the ones that hate any kind of innovation.

No if someone has put the effort in to get a Class to R50 then that should be fine. A bonus to make that Class better would be Merits and that would give someone who put that effort into getting fully merited for that Class an advantage like 10-15%. Here we are talking about a huge advantage over 50% for players that level every single class and thats ridiculous.

Merit is ONE of the ways to give advantage per time. No one says it's the only one that works.
Also, completely made up figures with no practical reflection on reality don't make for actual arguments. Let alone "ridiculous".
