Gear equalization will kill pvp in Dragonflight

When people don’t have an incentive to upgrade their gear they stop playing. Most are you are going to lose interest in pvp very fast when you no longer have power progression.

Want power progression GO PVE!

Imagine if they did gear equalization in pve, so LFR gave mythic loot. Most players would quit.

The only argument I’ve seen for gear equalization is so-called casuals who only have one or two hours a week to play and want to get max gear for no effort. The game shouldn’t be designed for people who barely play it.

Once again MOP and WOD equal gear in pvp. More people did play. Systemlands pvp gear gated behind rating LESS people play it in fact pvp alsmost died. So I really dont know what you talking about. Trolling??

So after failing with the thread on General forums you start a new one here and expect more applause?

Nah, the new system is great and always was.

I got my evoker to 60 yesterday and now it’s already 280 and 1400 solo shuffle rating, so what’s the problem? It makes you upset because every 1% of the time you encounter someone with 2400 rating gear?

you do have gear progression though, in open wpvp and for pve content, for pvp armor its exactly the same as it was in old days and EVERYONE loved it, all it does is preventing unfairness on arenas.

Actually people hated equalized Legion templates.

it’s NOTHING like templates from legion, it’s something like we had in tbc, wotlk, cata, mop and draenor, conquest armor is the best armor and you still have pvp gear you are willing to get in first place, people hated templated in legion only because it made pvp irrelevant, they removed pvp armor and to do the best in pvp you had to do pve

Not sure if troll or stu*pid.

If Gear progression is your only motivation for PvP, then you are lost, dude. It is supposed to be fun to play this game.

New players/Twinks getting stomped for hours/weeks until they can catch up gear-wise is the worst thing regarding keeping a healthy ecosystem in this game (participation numbers). If you fear that participation in rated pvp will go down, because players don’t have to endure that rated sh*t to play casual pvp, then ask yourself if they ever did have fun with that toxic rated pvp environment.

Next time please keep your unintelligent opinion to yourself :slight_smile:

The guy / girl is obvi troll. Just ignore him.
He never even played rated pvp that he had gear to upgrade… So it is strange he cries now :smiling_face_with_tear:

What the hell??? xD

Following that logic, then currently people only equip themselves and then leave the char???

This PvP system was during Cata, mop and wod times, and people used to play alot of PvP during these times.

LoL dude nobody wants your boosting services go cry somewhere else. PVP in this game will be better with equal gear, not some bullcrap boosted characters in random bg.

i don’t even take this guy seriously anymore, he promotes tanks in solo shuffle ?

Exactly the opposite. After Legion i used to take long breaks because i feel disgusted from pve requirements or rate/time gated conquest - honor gear. For many years before Legion i was spaming bgs and arenas and had great fun.
It seems the revival of the old system is a bit disapointing for very specific kind of players, namely boosters.
So, no.

I agree with what you said, but are you saying you’re not coming across toxic in your posts? lol

Frankly this game needs this, you got to think for all the players that wants to enjoy a casual match of PvP where you learn from the mistakes and gaining experience is part of this game, rather than the gear difference, however if you’re playing Rated games, you should be playing against opponents of the same level and gear, if you want to be superior to your opponent, there’s world pvp.

There are already evokers with 300 ilvl after 2 DAYS. How much faster do you want it to be?

Bro, it’s pre-patch, and these evokers were probably geared by their mains via those small conquest containers.
