I agree. Would like to buy vouchers and tickets from the broker


Same here, which means EME still profits from the people buying to sell to us. Win/win situation

In all honesty, The leaderboard rankings mean absolutley nothing. I do BG's all day and someone leaving doesn't affect my gameplay whatsoever. Odds are the end result will be teh same (Win or Loss). No actuall competative pvper would take anything about BG's moderatley serious. if someone leaves i still got X amount of kills and X amount of deaths so it has no effect on me.

I leave BG's all the time, only reason i care about top 30 is for the mount and thats about it, coudl care less about anything else. I'm more interested in good pvp and leading good matches. I also dont run premade, i only pug. I stay if i have a good team who listens and leave at teh start if people just half [filtered] it. My reason is i don't find it fun being grouped with idiots for 15 minuets so i leave. That simple.

Someone leaving wont make you get less or more kills, (maybe more assists) but ultimatley BG's are a joke in their current state and who cares if peopel leave and people stay? it just resets anyway in 28 days. Just do what I do, BG, leave if your nto having fun, run around flagged in 60 zones and wait till dropout is done then try again.


Not for nothing, but players like you with that mindset of glitching out the system for the mount is a perfect example why we need change in rankings. :\
I believe this is in urgent need of attention among players and staff.

My take:

I'll keep it simple. I believe leaving Is cowardly and completely uncalled for to reserve scoreboard stats. At first I was all for point tracking, but everything is so backwards with how people earn their numbers. Point system aside for kills/assists/point capture, I believe dropping out of a match to avoid a loss is the top offender of a broken system.

My suggestion:

"Reward" all leavers with -20 points.

Inb4, "What if we DC? I had to use the bathroom" etc.

I understand things happen, but when you que up for a match, you should be aware of the risk you're taking for a possible disconnect or personal disruption. Maybe this will make you think twice before abandoning the match at other player's expense. I know plenty of games who treat voluntary leavers and disconnections equally as a loss with a waiting penalty. This should be no different.


Please share your opinion on this matter Keep it clean and constructive.

This isn't exactly a bash thread.

I would like for someone to intelligently explain to me why its acceptable for archers to remain as they are.

Personally, I feel the class needs their defense lowered if they're going to remain a 'Glass cannon' type, because as of right now, they are certainly too beefed up in battlegrounds. Something needs to be done. Their "instant" stun traps need a viable counter as well, or a longer cool-down/duration. Its a bit too cheap for them to simply instantly stun a melee character with traps or close quarters, then 1-2 hit while the target remains defenseless. You can't even walk around the ranged trapped for the most part, nor block when someone else steps into it.

Please do something about this.

Doesn't matter which side you're on, for or against an archer change, please be courteous to one another.
East coasters always get the worst end of the deal. Please make it AFTER 6pm EST for people who actually WORK. I'm not taking a day off just to claim a name nor should I lose my current name (Which is fairly common) when I paid for Beta access and "NAME RESERVE"

I'm all for servers merging, but not at the expense of losing the name since I had day one.

This will stupidly be done on Tuesday, so I beg of you to make it an acceptable time for EAST COASTERS, after working hours.

I often feel the same way as OP. This game's community is solely found within LFG. Its the sad, honest truth and I only see one possible fix: VoIP.

Most of us often gravitate to shooters because of the ridiculous (And fun) nonsense of vocal communication, otherwise you would tire of the endless cycle of gameplay and maps.

Face it, VoIP is instant communication without taking the time to type (Which is a thing of the past within games, unless very necessary), you have freedom of speech without a censor or 'fear' of being right-click-reported by some high horse player (Unless fraps'd) and there is no Mumble/vent hopping.

I'm pleased to say that Blade & Soul added VoIP, I look forward to that, it really enriches the community.

I do not care about your point or this guys whiney post. I'm simply stating that the stun duration earrings do not effect glyphed stuns. If you spent any amount of time pvping you would know this as well.


Ok, where is this information specified? Somewhere in the game with clear, concise text, maybe a GM mentioned it, etc? Or is this just your opinion?

I've spent enough time PvPing to know while I'm instantly rooted by Sorcs, it doesn't warrant me the right to make a forum topic complaining about their duration of the skill alone or how "OP" the class is with its incredible nukes and lock ons. Or lets bring up the endless amount of flinching/tramples/stuns/shield blocks lancers inflict while slayer skills mostly go stright through them, inflicting no dmg.

Or better yet, why heart thrust, one of the best damage skills for slayers that has an incredible chance to be glyphed the most of out any skill, has been rendered near useless in pvp and most pve situations.

The stun duration earrings do no effect glyphed stuns, so that skill has a chance to stun for the full 3 seconds.


Where does it say that?

..

Either way, I feel like you missed the point completely, it is an advanced glyph and "3s" stun.
