Hello all, I have been reading through the forums an came across a few threads where people talk about who is the best player...
My question is how do one tell who is the best player when one can be 1 shot at any moment.. Example who ever claims they are the best player goes up against a random r9 gets hit breaks charm an gets 1 shot right after that.. Does that make that random R9 player the best??? Cause the way i see it it has alot to do with LUCKb:surrender

Just for general housekeeping, Fuzzy is placing this in the pvp section.

The better the gear the worse the player skill wise, they can just mash the keyboard and kill the opponent with any skill, as we can see it in pvp, pve wise most of them su ck even with god - like gear, seen the horrors of r9 +12 sin dying defending earth pavilion in WS as well as many more situations like that with "best" geared players and people judge others by gear not by skill, because frankly, you can`t see or measure one`s skill.

Would have to agree as well as slightly disagree.

There are players that just use the right skills at the right time and win because of that, but due to the rather horrible reaction time skills in PWI have it doesn't really look that impressive when you see it.

And of course when someone says ''XXX is the best'' it roughly translates to ''XXX is my friend, so he's like, totally the best, dude.''

Yeah I agree putting rep and rank gear into the cash shop totally messed this game up if you ask me. I miss the old day's when you could do TW at lvl 60 and nobody could even get rank gear yet. I remember buying Wraith officer badges out of the AH for 250k each trying to get my rank up so I could get my lvl 60 rank 4 body piece.

ya it was nice when we did have a lv cap at 60

it was way more skill based then its now.

as mentioned the better gear the less skill you need.
