    just to expound, based on what I understand, didn't the American Team lose to the Chinese Team in the PWIC Tournament, despite the fact that the majority of the Chinese Team did not have rank 9 Gear, and the American Team did? Doesn't this sort of imply that just because one has rank 9 Gear does not mean that they are uber elite individuals capable of beating people who actually know how to play their classes?

    Um, no.

    They did NOT port the characters as they were.

    Best evidenced by the casters having special Warsouls.

    QFT.

    Being able to annihilate under-equipped people on a PvE server doesn't mean that you know how to play.

    Squad selection was heavily in favor of the other teams. The US had to build a squad that included high DPS to tackle a timed Boss trial in order to qualify for the tournament. This same squad was then sent up against teams optimized for team PK.


    As for all the QQ about removing Rep from DQ store, why? DQ was a poor method of acquiring Rep. Sell your DQ in AH to people who want the points for the actually useful things in the DQ shop and buy Rep. On sale a Rep badge cost 12k, off sale 20k, buying tokens to make them 80-90k. The 1000 DQ points silly people spent on a Rep badge could easily have earned 200k+.

    all players were given a +12 set of their choice, so the playing field was even; the awful "godlike" *cough( players pwi chose just don't know how to fight on an even battlefield.

    Quite a week for jumping to conclusions.

    The posts simply said these sales were being stopped, but they did not say that there would be no alternatives ever.

    The most likely thing is that there will be an alternative method to purchase these things, however they will be more expensive, i.e. they will involve more gamboling. Instead of pay x gold and get x things, it will be pay x gold for the low chance of getting x things.

    Look at just about any other high demand cash shop items. They tend to be sold via gamboling and not straight purchase.
    Just some guy

    Soo frankie does this mean they will no longer be sold in the CS ? or just another way to stop people getting them for free, plz be honest now because if they return to the CS before they are re-added to the DQ items then just selling us another line of Bull

    i agree 100% just another way they can try to make money off of us all.

    Wraith Officer's badge can be exchanged for 25 reputation points.

    One Wraith Officer's badge cost 1000 DQ points.

    For rank 8 player need 200,000 reputation points or 8000 Wraith Officer's badges.

    This is equivalent to 8,000,000 DQ points.

    Someone has at least half of this amount ?

    If not, then Wraith Officer's badges at DQ shop not so necessary as seem.

    ****, too many days off game play.
    I missed the anncmt for no more chips. :\
    Who cares they removed the badges they were too expenxive anyway, cheap to
    farm dq's and sell/buy them for the rep if that's what you wanted.

    oh well

    Yes, I dont disagree with this decision, since you cant seem to figure out how to disable the 'stacking' option for them (I am assuming thats why they are being removed). But, WE ALL HAVE NOTICED YOU DIDNT BOTHER TO REPLACE THEM WITH ANYTHING! What? Are our DQ points going to continue to lose value because you are upset that some catshops might b making a profit on this? You do understand; whatever you decide to do, SOMEONE will figure out a way to make a profit from it. But alas and alac...i have no life so i continue to play.

    The good news is that the DQ shop will be updated again next month with at least one new item, and it's a good one.

    Hi there Frankie. Any word on why this didn't happen? It is now November. Can we at least have an answer, even if it's another lie?

    The item is being added to the game in this week, and should (hopefully) be added to the DQ points store next week. They just need the week to test it and make sure it works as planned.

    Also, kind of a theory, but when frankie posted referring to the DQ addition, he said "item(s)", possibly hinting at there being more than one...
