New World should find a meaningful way to allow lower level PvPers into the large Scale PvP gameplay and with full progression as well.
I dont care about the how right now, but the game would be far more enjoyable as a non max level player if I could be apart of the large scale Faction Wars in a meaningful way, with full progression and without the need to be in a company to play.
By full progression, I am referring to the ability to level up and get drops for gear .
They could add instanced PvP with level and/or gear score bands. Quick 10 minute scenarios that are 8v8 or 8v8v8. They can even be cross-server to speed up matchmaking.
Guild wars 2 sorted this out by taking pvp to a separate area, where even if u were level 10 the minute you entered you were level 60, your gear would be the same, but at least you had a chance to have fun.
AGS already tried PvP scaling in beta and lowered the scaling in launch going the other direction .
All sorts of tears about balancing . Ultimately max skilled weapon should matter over a half max weapon regardless of scaling .
All they need to do is Fix Outpost Rush and open it up to 10 level brackets starting with the 20-30 range.
Or just level… Lower level players should not be able to compete with those who have grinded out their levels. It isn’t fair to them. This isn’t GW2. This game has real consequences for wars, and gear upgrades are not easy to come by. This would only minimize the efforts of those who have grinded their level and GS up.
Been to a few world PvP fights, I’m certainly much weaker at lvl 45 than a 60 but the scale still makes it so that I feel like I’m helping, and I don’t mind seeing lvl 60 PvP on even ground as a reward for reaching max level.
The thing is, yall can’t tell players to take their time leveling and in the same breath be okay with punishing players for not quickly leveling to max level to do large scale PvP activities which many people purchased the game for in the first place.
Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the mass majority of max level players dont even get to do wars.
If you arent in the top guild doing wars and even if you are you better be on their “A list” or you will never get in. Ive been 60 for a few days now and i sign up for every single war. Still yet to do one.
I think this is largely due to the culture created on your server then. On mine, yes you have to be 55+ at this point probably 60 as a minimum for participating in wars, but largely they will pick those they know are the “A List” as you put it, but also have those that are new to the war stage get some experience. Sometimes we even have wars where it is decided in advance that the defenders are to keep the territory, but the entire war is a learning experience for those in it. In this case lower levels typically get more involved than the 55+ crew.
Well if what you say is true you are one of the lucky ones with some sorta “fair server” lol consider yourself very lucky
I will be the first to say I loved leveling up through PvP in WoW. The bracket system, gear for PvP as you progress, and literarily never having to touch PvE after level 10. That said I also recognize this is not WoW, its NW. Here you don’t PvP outside of world PvP until level 60. Its just buy design that way.
It would appear based on the forums most servers are one sided on a faction basis and an elitest mentality has been born. Which is very unfortunate and probably not anticipated by the devs with the current mechanics that are in play. But, I am sure there are plans to help prevent one faction controls everything and this elitest mentality that way they can satisfy a much larger player base. But that takes time, and with the amount of bugs present today, probably longer since we need a solid base before additions are added en mass.
