PVP an afterthough and pretty toxic

There’s no checks in place for lvl mid 70-90 people going to WT3 and marking for blood?
Why? Why not normalize PVP by equalizing gear for pvp? Why allow higher levels to grief lower levels?
Lost Ark not perfect but had some skill based combat. Oh 1 shot by a player with high level gear is how the thought PVP should be played?

Im a lvl 78 druid and i got 1 shotted by a 75 Barb HOTA. Not even close to any kind of battle. I go to lower levels to farm the cosmetics but i dont PVP. I even stay away from lower level people marked for blood because i know it wont be fair to them but if they think they can challenge me i turn them to mush.

They don’t need to fine tune each class for balance. I’m sure it’s a balance nightmare but certain things should be set in place to prevent griefing and 1shots. There should be equalized stats vs players with damage caps perhaps, or higher levels players dropping down WT should get some kind of %debuff vs lower level players when they are marked for blood. At least something like that would have a pvp playground for low levels alts for less BS. But there’s nothing stopping higher levels dropping down and abusing that either. Lots of people with nothing better to do out there.

I am a level 100 Druid, I tried Bear and wolf build… we also get 1 shotted by low level barbarians.

A single lvl 80 barbarian with the right build will demolish 8+ lvl 100 players…

Barbarian in PVP is Broken, as in a Game bug, bad math in the game.

If there is 1 Barbarian present in the pvp map, don’t think twice, alt F4, or go find something else to do in the game because it is VERY broken.

Stop before lvl 50 and don’t unlock WT3 if you want a PvP toon. I have a mid 60s barb and another PvP at 48 (as close to identical as possible.)

You wouldn’t like me chasing you with my barb. Bleeds for 1/3 HP each time I apply it (5 second) and it stacks :wink: Barbarians are designed to be a power house with their weapons. Get some barriers, more potions? Are you even rank 4 on your gear? (It should be ancestral by your level as well) and how many useful legendary powers do you have? (Gemmed out? Barbs get a total of SIX weapon sockets.)

I agree. The current system is pretty garbage and lazy and they should do more with it.

Also get ready for a bunch of people who don’t pvp coming in here to be upset that you even mentioned pvp in their dungeon game

I am waiting for masses o cry for a wow type of WM phase for PvP zone. (I want to farm the PvP cosmetics, but without any of the risk.) Go watch Nikelodeon.

Wow PvP is (has) always the same.

I do wish they would add PvP modes. (Would be wicked to have a colosseum or something with MOBA mode, (easy example to lean in on))

Can’t higher level players drop down and kill the lvl 50 and lower players?

Afterthought PVP is exactly what they promised and delivered. They probably figured it would only be attractive to a small portion of the playerbase, and would be a nightmare to balance. So they didn’t bother. Be glad the option is there.

Most people dont like the PvP in these games because it largely has noting to do with the player vs player. It would be more accurate to call it Class vs Class or Gear vs Gear. MMOs are pretty bad for balance too but ARPGs like Diablo are in a whole different universe. The player is the least important factor lol

Crazily enough people like to compete when they feel its fair.
