    The fact that the Legion chest can reward -Ring, Neck, Belt- is absurd.

    Every endgame player users an Artifact Neck/Artifact Belt .. Those slots are TAKEN.

    Meaning the Legion Ring is the only worthwhile(?) one.

    Im hoping the Legion stuff is a 0/3 set, and is aLSo artifact(?) equipment?

    Again, with no stats on any of them.. Why bother grinding 1000 seals? =X


    There should be a 'win of the day' worth 50 seals, same way the Protector's Cache is. To allow the casuals to catch up to the 'farm all day' crowd.

    Anyone know what the status that gives the set legion. They are one or two slots?

    1500 coins with 9 coins per match (average), and 20 minutes (average) matches gives 56 hours of playing for mount.
    7 days of event gives 8 hours of playing daily. !!

    I think it's absurd. It's casual game with broken pvp mechanics. In this moment announcement of season 2 and next should be given.
    Don't you think?

    edit:
    And this one time I think, that all of those items should be character bounded, not account bounded.
    Just take some of your alt and farm.

    You pvp types are about to get another Doohickey event. You'll have to grind *hard* as if this game was a job, to get a mount.

    Have fun.

    We already have a mount and pvp isn't a grind. Enjoy your seals of the protector though, seems like loads of fun to get those

    No... nothing was as obnoxious as the doohickey. Grind hard for a "chance" at a mount. My friend farmed all weekend to make her doohickey last year and when she sacrificed it, no mount.

    Noble idea, but unfortunately, like others have mentioned, its currently a premade farm fest.

    Separate the ****ing queues, otherwise its nothing but just pushing all the better gear to the premade pigs and alienizing any pugs.

    Those pigs don't really need any more gear. If it's anyone the devs need to tend to, it's the pugs, not the pigs.

    Yeah, I'd like to see the stats on the Legion gear before making a 1000 coin investment into it. It's a crackerjack box as the information stands currently.

    problem also is imo most will ONLY care about the rings, not the necks/belts since they have already invested in artifact necks and belts that are also likely part of 3pc set bonuses.........and since it's random, how many 1000 coins will you have to spend in order to get a random ring generated in the loot for you?

    i like how there's no comment about the matchmaking system, and throwing this event out there with a "deal with it" tone

    rich get richer

    designers keep pretending to be oblivious to all the flaws surrounding their pvp system

    Ah... but if there is a set bonus with the Legion Stuff, then that would give options... That said, with no information, we can really just speculate. All we have right now is the name of the item.

    Let's be honest... the only set bonus that people don't want to sacrifice is from Lostmauth, which really has no place in the game. Whenever everything has a baseline level, they introduce one or two items or powers with god-status skewing the game entirely. Bad game design.

    100 hours of play are needed for the mount.

    So, no answer about those rings stats?
    I mean there is like 33% to get the ring at first place, and what are the chances its gonna be actually a good one?

    Meh played one match, that was enough for me. OP sits on cap point... takes zero damage. All 5 of my team attacking a single OP who is taking no damage... even with build for piercing damage and he never dips past his yellow temp HP. That was all the experience I needed for PvP, won't bother doing it again with balance that far out of whack. Too bad cause there seem to be nice rewards, but apparently unless you already have maxed PvP gear you can't do anything but die.

    If you really play like that in domination pvp, you should stay far far away from it.

    P.S as well as your other teambuddies. . .

    So after these 7 days of Announcement event we won't get the same combat tokens? 12 per win and 6 per loss?

    DEV.. pls fix the artifact bug like wheel of element.. it can do 1 shot kill to even geared tank. and also please fix the queue ... the premade team will surely beaten random underdog gear player. this will ruin the pvp balance., and make pple leave the game. i always get queue w underdog team vs twinked gear team. how to win? TR can 1 shot my team mate,. etc

    Hi Dev's, can you do something about the hunter rangers and their permenant roots? Hunter Rangers roots have zero cool down, can not be dodged, and they have several roots to use.

    How can someone defend roots when you can not even roll to dodge? Get rooted not once but back to back to back. This is very broken.
    Hunter roots you and jumps on you instant death 99% the time.

    I have solo queued and done about 35 PvP games over the weekend, I have only came across 1 premade team, personally I dont feel there is that many premades running DOM, or maybe I am just super lucky...? :)

    PS: In my experience Group Queue has a higher chance to match up with premades, so maybe try to solo queue to reduce the chance of fighting premades :)

    Hehe. Its cute when a TR (Assume by the fact you said Roll to dodge) says something is broken.

    That being said. I thought they fixed the root issue? I guess I usually pvp on my Pally or my GWF, So I can control immune. but I swear I've been constricting arrows and stuff fired at people and not rooting them.

    Well for me it was 2 PUG matches out of 10, all the other premades.

    The q dropped me against 3 major PVP guilds, who teamed up to steamroll us, PUGs.

    Since matchmaking is utterly broken, some of my team mates by solo q were item lvl 1600-1800 guys against 3,5+K premades. So this means a lost match for me.

    We stood most time at campfire without having done a single point.

    My question, where does this show my skill, why must i have a weak team by my side, but ranking shows me as a dumb in the end result? :confused:

    I switched toon to take a look with him, premade team again, so i rage quit the event and unless they don't make brackets, ELO and something against the many exploits, bugs and class balance issues, i personally will never take part in it again. I have a spine and don't like to be humiliated 80% of the time. First i would be satisfied to see, the brackets and ELO. All the other could follow in a second wave.

    Current matchmaking is HAMSTER, cause if i do good for a time, i get ranked up to BiS players with my otherwise very mediocre geared toon.

    I made some screenshots too, where people were complaining, they will never do it again.

    Those, who say this isn't a steamroll fest for premades, should take a look at zone chat, where they gather or go to some instances, where they arrange the teams.

    In current state the event lost any credibility in my eyes and i would bet my 2 cents, that if this goes longer this unfair way, many too will abandon it, especially after they geared up, cause many do it only for the gear, not out of joy.

    Love every word of it!

    Now Devs will make a fine present for a premade, with the first price. Poor souls they need it so desperately. LOL

    I have a feeling there must be a lot of PvE players that have swarmed into DOM recently...

    Without exaggeration, I get HATE TELLS once every 1~2 days (80~90% of them are TR for some reason...) calling me exploiter because I can sprint almost nonstop, and while I owned 90% of them, the geared ones can beat me to really bad, but can never kill me, cus I would run away when I have 20%HP left or so, and with my ~40% speed bonus with sprint, they have no chance to catch up with me, all they could do is to watch me full heal myself in about 10~15 seconds then comeback to whack them again...
    (all these are 100% legit, its just choices with feats, boons, encounter and stat)

    My guess is those TRs thinks GWF are naturally meat to them, then they get really pissed cus they couldn't down me, and instead get owned by me with hit and run and heal tactic...

    They funny thing is, they would complain about me running away doing this hit and run tactic, when I go back and own them, I would just ask them, why do you dodge/run and not fight like u said a man should be then, face to face?... they either reply in silence or gets really mad and start calling me exploiter... :\

    SO is there actually any REAL way to report people who afk in pvp for basically the entire match? guy ran out, died once, then flamed us for a bit before afking for the match (which went for over 25 minutes because the rest of us actually did a good job). or do we just smile and nod.
