Protesting Frontlines

[LilPhist]

I'm wondering if everyone will be synced to the avg ilvl of all participants' unsynced gear. That would make more sense.

With 72 combatants, some players having vastly superior gear (because presumably they're into PvP enough to have acquired it already) doesn't seem at all unfair. I don't see the need to sync the gear either for that matter, or at least not by default. Custom 'even playing field' matches where they do this are fine, sure, but what's the point in PvP gear existing if it's made not only irrelevant, but actually worse than PvE gear due to a missing secondary stat?

I've never been much for PvP, but I have some interest in Frontlines. I'd be starting at rank 1 with no shred of an advantage and I would much prefer that they reverse their decision on the morale stat and the gear syncing. Without those things there's no progression at all. It would be the PvE equivalent of running Coil all day in darklight gear and passing on everything that drops. After all, it would be unfair if you were better geared after your 50th clear than someone who just started, right?
