    PVP Win Trading OK? Can we get a dev response?

    Given that quite a few people have win-traded to level up in pvp and gear themselves up, a number of legit players are at a disadvantage. Because PvP doesn't seem to match people with others their level, and comes with 10min+ wait times, there seems to be a divide between a few players with "elite gear" and many without.

    This makes nearly all PvP matches a matter of pure luck (unless you enter with friends who are well geared).

    So could a dev please respond and let us know whether or not Win Trading is a legit method of leveling up, or an exploit.

    Many people are avoiding it because they think it's an exploit. While others are taking full advantage of it.

    So please, let us know if we can take advantage of win trading, or not.

    In a game where speed-running and streamlining content as much as possible is ideal... sounds like a regular Tuesday to me.

    Do you speak Japanese?

    Why would anyone in their right mind think rigging PvP matches would be considered acceptable.

    Not until SE steps in and posts a response in 1 of the wintrading threads. But it feels like they don't care as they have responded to newer threads with different topics.

    Although it should not be allowed, I doubt they will do anything about it. It will take an awful lot of effort to find all the offenders.

    Not really. Everything in an MMO is logged all they need to do is write a script to find the behaviour.

    I really don't see why it's so hard for a mod to answer this instead of either letting it happen or secretly banning people.

    Who really cares about PvP when bots and speed hacking in PvP are more rampant than ever? Obviously SE doesn't.
