Op ppl and the hate they draw

Spell_Caster - Raging Tide

Hey there fellow wizzies,


I am just curious how you guys relate with OP rich *** cashopers with R9.3+12 jaded.

Do they ever get skilled having the op gear advantage?


Do they get unjustified hate for being a cashoper and paying pve to keep the business running?


Do you Op ppl on ur servers have friends or just ppl who want to gold dig you?

What is your perception on lower geared f2p players?

What is your perception towards Op heavy cashopers?


I am just curious...i will post my own case later on.

I generally try to work with them so that i dont have to fight them lol. 99.5% of the time, people who cs are just as friendly and cool as the "f2p" players. Besides if csers didn't buy their way to having better gear then f2p people we wouldnt have a real reason to gear up so much. It keeps the game pseudo interesting at least.

As for your questions. There will always be people who scream "c$er you suck" and there will always be people who say "gz on getting xxx new shiny thing that we all want". It's hard to judge if someone with OP gear has skill or not, they kill everything with ease. At the same time you can't say that survivng the mass ganks that get thrown at them doesnt require some sort of skill at times. I'm would have to say that if the person looks at their gameplay and tries to improve it then they can become skilled even if they do nothing but c$.

On ht the generalization is that the types of different people have grouped together and they kinda end up friends. I mean ofc there is mix and match but the cliques that develop are the high end merchants are friends, you have the middle tier f2p players claiming 99% of merchants are mega cash shoppers. Then there are groups of the high end cs'ers that are probably 70% of them bricks and maybe 10% of those cs'ers having skill in the game.

The skill level imo of pvp on ht is rather low so you do notice those lower tiered players if they have high skill because they can out perform even those with that maxed out of close to maxed out gear, so they do get their praise. When tw was better on the server with actual 80 v 80 alot of those lower end players and top end cash shoppers with bad skill are those that have scrub status and cs'd scrub status. Those get thrown up b and hope they do their job lol.

The problem with some of the main line cash shoppers is that we can't even justify them making little mistakes and just saying it's that they understand their gear, they make mistakes like zomg i fist the crystal in tw or running around without even self buffs despite full chi etc etc.

And yes this **** happens sadly lol

The awareness on ht is quite bad that just about anyone that hits r9 +10 is usually labelled a cs'er even now despite having years to get that. If you have a +12 you are probably assumed to have sold some sort of car for it -.-

b:chuckle People just think all OP player are cash player. Other reason, people are too sensitive and take everything he says seriously. However, I think in some cases it is purely jealousy.

b:laugh R9 was easy farm back than when DQ page with medals of glory and r9 mats. b:chuckle wish DQ history show my old logs.

We all know the epeeened cash shoppers on RT. And they got their bad reputation based on their actions.

What people hate most, is how they brag about being so great, and others suck, based solely on their gear, not their skill. Oddly enough, it's the same people QQ'ing about NW, due to the fact that more people are becoming equally geared, and now they can't steamroll as many as they used to and actually have to rely on skill.

Character is not just a toon u play.

I don't usually care if someone cashshops its the thought that a lot of those people (or at least the ones that I meet) have that because they they can 1-shot someone (usually due to the cashshop) they are the best thing since sliced bread.

On Archosaur "R9 only enhances PvP skills". The hate one might argue tends to be fairly easy to follow on constant bragging mixed with idiotic comments quoted. The number who hate CSers is pretty small but the people who hate certain CSers can be fairly big.

Kannone - Heavens Tear

oooo this is loaded lol.

here's my 2 cents (courtesy of my second time in room 32):

Last year I spent a little over $5,000 paintballing competitively; (travelling across the country several times, weekly practice, new gear, etc.). Every Thursday and Friday from my sophomore year until i graduated college I went with my friends to the local night clubs and would spend somewhere between $20 (if I was unlucky DD) to $150 (if I was stupid and bought drinks for chicks or ended up at the strip club)...

Why is this info relevant? Because that was my entertainment budget. That's the money I spent having fun. I expect that if I had stayed in and played this game, spending my entertainment budget here instead I would be one of those OP characters. And to me that's just fine, if that's where you derive pleasure in your free time then great, why should anyone get to condemn anyone else for that?

I hated Csers before but now dont really care. The gears might make them hit harder, and be able to take a hit but usualy isnt any actual skill behind some or most R9. If it weren't for them no real content would of been released.

I have csed before from time to time, would of had 3r9 by now but choose not to.

over all agrees on tha server not much hate but for a few CSers that seem to drive it on like they get a kick out of it thems lol

Lord_Mot - Harshlands

At one time, those with OP R9 gear were assumed to be CSers, but now likely as not they farmed their gear. Some CSers are great people and some farmers are jerks and vice versa, just like everywhere else in life. It seems to me that there are two classes of R9+++ wizzies, which can be easily seen in NW. The one group actively plays, either having pk battles near the center, or supporting/attacking the flag carriers, and generally having a good time. The other group stands near the enemy spawn point and one-shots nearly everyone as soon as their immunity wears off. I have great respect for the first group and compliment them whenever I get a chance. As for the other group...b:scorn

ok for my point of view, getting awesome gear early in game doesnt make u nab, just u arent so skilled at surviving cause u dont have to.
i have and keep farming all my gear, atm i have r9 3rd cast armors, 2 +10 2 +7 with exclusive garnets, and g16 +10 weapon, working to get r9 to recast it now, but since i got my r9 piece by piece at the time, im very skilled at surviving, not by kitting out of enemys like some of the so called "best wizards in server" think they are. i know how to survive... CAUSE I HAD TO!! my gears werent so great now.
Now i can let another wiz hit me with a BT w/o worrying on gettin killed, now i worry if charm ticks, or sins killing me with aps, not so possible unless they are too OP.
also, playing much pve does help u gain survavilty, if u act as a DD and not hide behind the rest like some do.

John_Smith - Harshlands

I get rather bored of them, by and large.

A few can be awesome people, and not utter camping narcisisstic nobs, but most are, and I simply avoid them by not going to West / Silver Pool.

I got so bored I decided to make a G16 Pataka as my project for my Wiz even though it makes little competetive sense. b:chuckle Gonna be fun.

You still fight OP people you learn.

I suppose so.

Do you Op ppl on ur servers have friends or just ppl who want to gold dig you?
Um yes and no

What is your perception on lower geared f2p players?
Want nothing to do with.

What is your perception towards Op heavy cash shoppers?
Um can't beat them join them or pve and farm millions and join them. To be honest you just can't beat some of them cash shoppers and you would be stupid to try to beat some of them. Anyways just get best gear on server and destroy what you can.
