Are you comparing a situation where nobody was aware of this problem or prepared in anyway to one where they would be?

Yes but a lot of the issues I ran into whIle this was going on would still be there even if players could prepare for a change to solo q.

I'm sure you remember but for anyone who wasnt playing back then there was a time when solo q was unequalized. A lot of people complained because they'd get people who queued up in just fodder or the people who didn't want to make gear to play would [filtered] that the arena was unplayable. This was before +15, level 65 skills, and the new classes.

I would love to see better gear or be able to use my own but it'd be giving bhs too much credit to find a way to balance geared players with EQ gear. It'd also be giving the community too much credit to think they'd queue with the right gear when some can't even figure out what crystals they should be using. :c

so the bgs now are equalized no matter what item level is?

I'd like to point out that numbnips does lose when he doesn't dodge queues and gets dumpstered by people much better than him.

Simple solution: "Yo go ask your guildies/friends what you need before entering this BG" and kick m out

But yeah, unequalized solo 3s would not be successful server wide at this current point in time, but it could be pretty successful if you wanted to have like an inhouse within your guild. It's just gonna be unfortunate when outsiders queue up for it.

Whats the difference between FWC now with EQ gear and FWC now with EQ gear for all (previously only equalized for players with ilvl 404 or less)

I was wondering about this as well. I've asked if NA could get some clarification about this so hopefully we get some news soon.

Making solo q non equalized would make 3s pop because healers would actually be interested in playing instead of there being a 50% chance of getting 1 hit completely out of your control. Why dont you play healer @thekor and tell me how you like taking getting 80k crits from an archer or getting 1 comboed by a [filtered] warrior.

When treeshark adjusted the ilvls a few months back for fwc it was accidentally applied to solo q too. For a few hours I was able to use my own gear and it was a lot of fun. Lower ilvl players couldn't do damage to me and if another geared person one shot my dps I could res them constantly and just draw the game that way. While briefly entertaining for the few hours it was broken this would be really annoying to anyone who wanted to q. The eq gear was a nice adjustment compared to what it used to be in solo q. The gear could be a lot better but letting players use their own gear would make it harder on a lot of other players.

The gear is [filtered] in solo q to help the games from constantly drawing is what I'm getting at. In fwc and teams being able to use your own gear is a good thing though since you can coordinate better with people you q with.

I see your point but couldnt we get around that with some kind of 3s debuff for healers? Similar to the summon cd debuff of civil unrest maybe -15 pvp def and double cooldown on revive?

the speed of revive is mostly what needs a nerf, with the current amount of attack speed+estars+glyphs the other healer can barely jaunt towards/lock on to the other healer before the res is already done.
Also I wouldn't mind a small regress/plague cooldown buff (or res CD nerf) so that it's up faster than res is. Because if you fail once now the 2nd time is basically free (assuming the other team is derpy enough to let you live that long and regain mana.)

can velika unrest/team 3s also become equalized so i can just npc all of my pvp gear please

Jewlee · October 2016

If FWC is EQG I will need to motivate myself to keep playing. Or just play once a week for CUV.

Having two versions of FWC is possible, but you will certainly run into the same queue time issues that CS has currently.

No stun reduction on earrings, ridiculous attack power, literally zero defense/dmg reduction.
the team that gets teralith practically cant lose anymore unless full raid is [filtered].
my equalized reaper is oneshotting, one comboing people more than with non equalized, every class that has a stun chain combo will destroy anyone in there.
#worth, right?

Yeah...No.

That eq gear is still bad compared to an actual set of gears like Slaughter because it's barely any difference from our current eq gears. You're still missing stun duration reduction and not to mention you lose a bit more % on a lot of your rolls (cdr, + and - pvp dmg, etc,) you could've gotten from a non-eq gears. That def mod is just a tad bit higher than our current one. Still won't make up for the upcoming revamps where dps do more deeps because BHS's logic of balancing means increasing classes' dmg rather than actual balance.

Felhammer · October 2016

Let me put it this way. If they equalise fraywind then you can honestly say goodbye to many seasoned PvPers. Gearing up is part of the game. Team 3s and fwc were the places to test your builds and use what you worked hard for.

So I repeat someone else's remark. Any NPC I can sell my PvP gear too for the price of gold I poured into it? Might as well go mid tier if all I need gear for is PvE.

Inb4 they turn CU into eq and finally destroy the PvP left in Tera.

i like how so many people are like "YAY NO MORE +15 OPNESS" meanwhile the difference gear enchantment lvl is barely any higher than %5. the rolls is what made the difference and theres no excuse not having properly rolled gear. you dumbasses will get rekt even faster and you dont even realize it.
