Remove PvP gear

[Phantomsmile]

Morale is just there. It serves no purpose people said it was an advantage for the lesser geared player. They even asked us how to change it awhile back. My friends who are fully geared admits it don't do much now compared to how it was back then.

The point of pvp gear is to allow people who primarily pvp access to gear that would be on par with pve gear for pvp purposes WITHOUT having said pvp gear being directly equivalent or better than pve gear for pve purposes. This is accomplished through morale - which bumps up the item lvl of pvp gear before item synch is applied.

How can you say there's no point to pvp gear or that morale does nothing?

It in fact fulfills a vital game design objective.

Think before you speak. And realize that not everyone pves. People enjoy the game in different ways and SE has every reason to ensure that as many as possible can enjoy the game.

Get over yourself and stop being so selfish.

Lord... and materiaDOES NOT work in pvp! Dude, you can't even be bothered to understand how gear works in pvp and you're petitioning to have pvp gear removed?

Lordy... not to be mean but do some basic research before you post about stuff and ask for changes!

[P4X0R10N]

Okay, well to be fair, they changed how stuff works a few times... it can be quite confusing to keep up...

If the morale stat increased boobie size beyond current cap...would you wear and stack pvp gear exclusively? ..what? Dont look at me like that..its an honest question.

They didn't remove morale for pvp....

i180 pvp gear will give you something like +2 of the smaller secondary at i150 sync. morale on i205 pvp gear currently serves no purpose, but, imo it's very likely that morale will be turned on inside the new wolves den pier. With dueling not having ilvl sync it might make the newer pvp sets viable

Absolutely.

PVP Gear item level is boosted based on Morale stat, so for example the Bow of the Wanderer is an i205 weapon but it has 40 morale making it a i245 weapon in pvp zones.
Morale does not have any effect in our current pvp modes because those modes are synched at 150 or 80.

However,
Now that we have a 1 v 1 duel mode that does not Abide by the level synch rules, pvp gear will be extremely necessary in order for pvpers who do not PVE very much to actually have an edge.
Hopefully there will be a new set of pvp gear in patch 3.4.

So if morale does squat in our current synced mode. The morale technically does nothing currently then? Because I'm hearing different answers here.

Morale adds on to the item level of the gear depending on how much morale it has.



This item level boost is present in i80 and i150 modes however you don`t notice it at all due to the gear synching down as soon as you enter pvp.
The only way you will notice is if you wear a piece of pvp gear that does NOT meet the stat caps of i150 PVP.

For example: Weapon PVP stat caps for Critical hit in PVP is 52. If you were to enter i150 Frontline or the feast with Rod of the Black Griffen (which has 52 Critical hit) your Critical hit would be much higher than if you entered pvp with Kujo Kai. Even though Rod of the black Griffen and Kujo Kai both have the same item level Outside of pvp and the same Critical hit.

When you enter PVP with the Rod of the Black Griffen, the Morale on the rod will make the rod a item level 210 weapon which will boost its stats beyond its original amount far above the i150 stat caps, and then it will synch back down to i150 because of the limit on the game mode.

A lot of Hard core PVPers that look for just the right stats will sometimes snag i180 PVP gear to help with thier builds.

However, Morale will be at its full potential in the 1 v 1 Duel mode in 3.4 since it is Not Synched.

Morale stat will mean PVP gear will actually be somewhat of a big deal for PVPers that only do PVP and don`t do much PVE content in this game mode.
Sadly this wont last for long since in 3.4 there will be an item level raise, so all we can do is pray that there will be more PVP gear coming. (or they add a level synch to Duels)
