My contempt of this game has been vindicated.  Excuse me whilst I go fan myself with the wad of cash I saved by not purchasing this piece of crap.

Over and out.

Gaute didn't know how to design a game. That's clueless.

Mark knows how to design a game, he's obviously just got a serious case of the pre-Wrath super-retardation pox.

Well, the good news is that there's another piece of evidence that anyone trying to compete with WoW by creating a simulacrum of its gameplay and taping some tassels onto it is going to eat shit.

Please, dear god, start making a bunch of relatively inexpensive niche titles that don't play like WoW.  INNOVATE, MOTHERFUCKERS.

Hey, I'm not playing WoW much right now, either :D  Queueing for 30 2s arena matches, automagically losing 26 of them due to 'instance not found', getting into only one with my partner only to find that we had no opponents, and winning only one as a 1v1, the results of which were a -18 for my opponent and a -14 for me... that did the trick.

But, at least WoW will be fun enough to play once the lag clears.  Can't say the same for WAR : (

I quit WoW when BGs came out and I won't be going back. I saw those fucking "dailies" things they came up with since I quit and it made up my mind that that was one game I would not return to.

Guess it's back to single player RPGs after my month of WAR. We'll see, though. I'm still having some fun, so who knows.

But really... required armor sets in a PvP game? wtf... /sigh

Looks like they just integrated the ToA into release this time.  I can hear the meetings they had now...

"If I we put it in the game from the beginning, they won't complain about the PvE grind being necessary for the PvP endgame!"

Perhaps we're over-reacting, but it certainly doesn't sound good.

Apparently, people are saying that all of the above, can also be gained from RvR things. I have no idea of this is true, and the grab bag dosn't mention it.

I personally invite whoever thought this was a good idea to eat a dick.

Yes. FUCKITY FUCK SHIT FUCK.

PVP != PVE

Not only should success in one NOT rely on doing the other, but in a supposedly PVP-focused game, requiring PVE gear to do all the content is beyond fucking retarded.

EDIT: To add a not where it really should have been.

Apparently all but the last set, the set required for the King thingamabob.  To get the best RvR gear in the game you have to take down king with ward thingy aror that can only be gained from fighting computer bosses.   At least that's the best I can take away from it.

Doesn't matter where it's gained.  If it's still gained from random gold bag drops that only 1-2 people out of 20+ get, that makes for a LOT of farming.

Just what do they mean by required? They start off by saying that it lowers damage taken in dungeons/encounters. Ok, PVE resilience. I get that.

They then go on to say that it is required to do encounter XYZ. Will I not be allowed in without it? Will I be taking so much damage, I'll be useless without it?

How much of it do I need? Will I have to continually do my PQs and garbage dungeons for the full set before I can continue?


And if I physically cannot enter the next tier without the gear:
Why would they not do it by renown rank?
Why would they not do it by renown rank?

Heh, even if it wasn't true before I bet it will be soon.  Mythic will be scrambling in damage control mode and will probably do just that to try to placate the masses.

If you happen to get the gold loot bag in the PQ roll when you take a keep. Now think about how often that actually happens.

From my reading, its not required, its just almost necessary or your in for some tough fights, because you don't have the -50% to what-ever-the-fuck-resilience-like-damage they toss out.

From Mark's blog:

I think I’d rather shoot myself in the head than do another ToA.

Both sets can be used in any combination to offer the Greater Ward, which is required for both the Lost Vale and the City Invasion PQs.

It said the sets offer a specific damage reduction for specific boss fights. Like each piece of the Execlisor gear offers 10% damage reduction when fighting the city ruler.

FUCKING FUCK FUCK FUCK!

Making PvP success about gear quality is the most stupid fucking idea ever!  Damnit, I hate WoW for some of the shit they introduced.

Gear should be easily accessed and should have little (less than 10%) influence on pvp outcomes.  Damnit, the hardcore keep ruining these games (and their development) for the 90% of us that like to come home from work and have a distraction. 

Sounds like Guild Wars is right for you

Ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will not put.

Specific resist damage against specific types of encounters - I can only assume that resistance isn't really used in any other encounter? Does that mean I'd be trying to farm ONE SPECIFIC SET only for ONE SPECIFIC FIGHT after which the armor will be retired for the next set?

Goddamnit, that is super-duper, drooling mongoloid, asshat-wearing, fuck your sister, inbred, cross-eyed, shitstained, locked in the closet as a child retarded.

Mark... Paul... all you fuckers at Mythic. You're already killing my desire to play with the shittastic design of Talabecland and the t3 grind. Do you really really want to keep pushing my resolve with this? It's like you want me to quit. Me personally, just me. You all hate me don't you?
