You’re doing something wrong if you’re doing 300 damage, even against the most duped set void bent players I do near 1k white damage, are you using the right attributes for those weapons?
He’s not doing anything wrong just doesn’t have 500k-1mil to roll buy bis…
he did. And is 100% correct in his outrage based on that.
Imagine you had 520 faction gear and it was fun even though 600gs armor got you really strong selection of perks that made the 520 gear a good loss because you could survive long enough to learn the game. But now imagine you walk into pvp thinking you could survive enough, but your 580 weapon goes against a 600gs target; youll deal 5-8% less dmg while they do 8-10% more dmg all because your target has 20 more expertise on weapon but your gear is 520 versus their 600 weapon.
Terrible system.
it doesnt work that way. lol
So you want to pass up all the other folks who stuck around and did the work? Good to know.
I just checked the morrolan calc. Looks like it changed since I last looked at it lol.
Something about aversion? 600 weapon against average armor?
Sounds more annoying than at launch when none of that mattered except the perks on your gear and your weapon mastery+skill level lol.
There is no catching up. Welcome to the janky fishing, gathering simulator. As the 1% gets millions of coin a week and can roll all the bis gear for years to come.

it never should. This is mmo, i do gear to get adventage in pvp. There is literally 0 other reason to gear up besides that. If you take it away then everyone, including myself, will just get some semi-decent gear and quit cause of boredom.
On a sidenote, YEP. Im a S&B tank and have yet to see ONE Shield expertise bump when doing chest runs. My other gear bumps consistently. I end up having to put all my gypsom bumps into shield.
I have not seen a sword bump in who knows how long. I did get one shield bump this week after a couple weeks of nothing.
I have made all my own money by box runs and asmo and I am almost in bis gear. Plus I was able to craft at least once a day without going completly broke.
You also have no friends. Prove me wrong.
Gear is not being lowered to expertise GS yet. I don’t like expertise system but the full implementation doesn’t happen until the next patch.
I have a question, I can’t tell if only gear you crafted for yourself is grandfathered, or all gear you have bound?
As far as gear and PvP, it always matters though there is some scaling. I think they change it next patch, though not exactly sure how it will work from their description. Perks are very important for some weapons/builds, pieces over 570 with the right perk are solid in PvP IMO. Voidbent is not ‘best’, legendary with a useful perk other than luck is the ultimate goal. (I am so far from that, haha. Gearing up takes a lot in NW and I doubt many will stick around to do it.)
I’m still waiting for “crafted gear will be the best gear”. Until then, I guess I’ll enjoy using my IG with strength and LS perk.
I’m using 580-590 gear
Wit dem op.percs?

The “Effective Gear Score (EGS)” downscaling component of the expertise system has not been implemted. In other words, as of today if you have a piece of gear at 600 and your expertise for that slot is 500 that piece of gear is still functioning as a 600. None of your gear has been downscaled yet.
The expertise system is not the issue, @maddinii
When it does go live, any gear you bought/crafted prior to EGS downscaling being implemented will be grandfathered and still function at its actual gear score.

Expertise scaling isn’t even in the game yet, while you’ve been away for weeks most of us having been grinding trying to get bis gear. I’m not judging you for stepping away from the game but a lot of us still play this game hard-core and perks are king in pvp
