    Nice trick question, endgame can mean many things . There's pvp endgame , also pve endgame . There's also end game enough where your able help others or even just on knowledge of the game. Would go as far to say gear is only half of the the term.

    When thinking of endgame my first thought is r9r3/r9r4. When I think of g17 I seem to consider it as "super endgame", but I think everyone's interpretations of endgame can be different. In my case, I feel as though g17 is a bit far out my reaches but have been sitting on r9r3 for a while now. I guess in that sense it was my endgame that I wanted to achieve and I did. Other stuff like refines/shards/etc also come into play but then that's more complex xD

    Sometimes the questions have answers even I don't expect.

    For instance I as well see endgame gears as R9S3 or 4. However really this is well open to the requirements of that toon and player.

    Anyone else like to share thoughts?

    Thanks.

    PS, please note the dates for DST maintenance per area.

    Imo, purely from different perspectives, i divide 'endgame' into diff. categories :

    1. endgame PvE :
    - affordable : G16+12 set with some nice rings (g16, maybe even g17) and ornaments.
    - for most not affordable or pretty expensive : R9R3/R4 + G17 ornaments

    2. endgame PvP :
    - usually R9R3 or R4 refined +12
    - full G17 set +12 for the heavy cash players , full Deity or Devil

    I think that for most players, meaning the 99% , a G17 set and weapon (last cast) is absolutely
    not affordable in any forseeable future. By the time some of us might have gotten a few pieces of the first cast
    most players will already have left the game because they either realize it's not for them or they find something better on the horizon.

    I'm in a pretty good place in a guild that doesn't really care about pvp or 'endgame' gear and are just a bunch of players who like to have some fun. I think that for most players still in the game, that they don't want to 'quit' playing because they've invested so much time, and cash in some cases, into it that it would be considered a 'waste'. Some still have some hope for a better expansion or a change in attitude from pwi management.

    If there were a similar, but better, game coming out in the future, with the same style of gameplay, i'm sure that a lot, if not all, players would be gone in a heartbeat. Nothing lasts forever, enjoy while you can but keep your eye on the horizon. You never know.

    Servers are up.

    I really think most people see it in 2 or 3 different ways.

    See you ingame.

    Thanks.
