Dueling Item Level Sync

[Enlial]

Actually, this is bringing up another concern of mine that I almost forgot about. Does anyone know if statuses follow PvP rules or PvE rules within Wolves Den Pier? I remember that, back in the day, stuns didn't use the PvP timers on the training dummies in the WD pier area. It's not a big deal on the dummies, because most people only use them to test rotations, but it's a different story in duels. It would be seriously misleading to new players if statuses didn't work the same way in duels as they do in an actual match.

There’s no IL sync for this either. If we get a lot of requests, we can consider adding an IL sync later, please give us your feedback.

Technically you are not PvPing in that screenshot, you're PvEing. Hopefully SE actually accounted for what you're showing in that screenshot, or they'll just be that much more of a joke.

I dont think it's that. Wolves den pier, as far as I can tell, was intended to be a "pvp area." And you could say the same thing about the ice in fields of glory. In fact, I'm certain the training dummies and the icebound tomeliths are actually cousins ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The range penalty for bards/machinists is reflected by the training dummies, so I dont think its a technical limitation, either. My guess would be that its just an oversight.

Knowing SE you're probably correct.

Yup. I went there last night to check it out as well lol. I really hope that SE realizes that PvP status durations are inaccurate within WD pier and makes adjustments, because this would be terribly misleading for new people.

All of the wolves den area should level sync, makes no sense why it doesn't already.

Time to make ourselves heard. If there was ever anything for the pvp community to come together for it is this.

It needs to have a ilvl sync feature or this will be unbalanced, no idea what SE is thinking

Implying 1vs1 was balanced in the first place. Every time that argument was brought up about dueling as such, people immediately admitted it isn't and isn't meant to be, but rather just "something" to pass the time.

Post 14 got the right of it - dueling sync isn't for balance, it's to allow it to function as tool in addition to mere entertainment.

You are right, this is to pass the time and not even with ilvl sync duels will be balanced for some classes, there is no sync in duels in any other game but in this game pvp content is sync and people who asked for this are people who pvp and alot of them doesnt have endgame pve gear, you dont need it for pvp content. So if you want a fair 1v1 with the same lvl of gear and just test out your skills you would have to duel naked
