"OPENTHEDOOR"I don't know why you don't just throw it for a few weeks if it's that much of an issue? Surely the entire point of this % change to the GVW was so everyone has a chance to enjoy a fight? All it looks like it's done is show which side is completely disorganised (since there's no excuse for losing vs a 65%/70% team - at least on DSOMA since almost all attendees are level 100). The % will go so low that the defender will not even be able to participate, organised or not. It makes it look like the % idea is purely so the GVW holder will lose no matter how much they try, and the whole event will be abandoned until their % is somewhat viable. The problem almost goes full circle; 1. GVW is deemed to be boring because the average joe can't get a group together to move the Defender. 2. Defender's % is so low they have no chance anymore and lose the GVW. 3. Defender's % takes too long to increase (5% per loss after the 1st defeat) 4. Ex-GVW holder who is on low % doesn't attend GVW for the next couple of weeks (months?) until their characters are somewhere near what their stats should be. 5. the new GVW winners have nobody to fight because their opponents are basically level 50 stats. - GVW is boring once again. 6. In the meantime a group of those said people potentially leave the game because GVW was the only enjoyment keeping them tethered. Correct me if this is not the current scenario ;o

Was unable to attend but we've been told alts are fine providing you don't guild hop meaning if anyone from darklegacy leaves to join dominance to use trace and get around the % nerf then leaves dominance to join back to darklegacy to use trace this hasn't happened.

Of course it's a decent constructive thread until the usual suspect shows up with the usual accusations, shocker. Just seen Matty recorded I'll give it a watch at some point, hopefully I'll be able to make the next one. Do hope the percentage drop/increase gets looked at or capped in future I think it would be a benefit.

"ISYLVER"You can do what you want with your alts (providing they're not guild hopping etc). Direct quote from a previous thread, I'll just leave that here. |
