Bioware make Gearing Harder

ya know its possible maybe bioware doesnt want the endgame to be like every other mmo when it comes to getting gear.

Most likely cause they realize about only 10% of mmo players truly dedicate themself to the typical endgame grind.

Currently I am the only 50 in my guild and am waiting for the rest of em to get there to start the endgame and considering what you are saying, I am happy to hear that it doesnt require a constant repetitive grind to get gear.

Every mmo I play i tend to get burnt out on endgame by the time im almost done gearing my main or I actually do gear him. I never want to run my alts through endgame. Sounds to me like I may finally have a chance to do that with alts in this game which works out well considering I want to enjoy every class story.

I also think there may be some additions soon to crafting and changes with the modding system that will change things up a bit.

If you didn't read or can't comprehend what's being discussed I can see how you would come up with that conclusion.

People get geared to fast.

Alts wont hold the majority of the Population.

This game is amazing, but its not going to hold people when you can be done with a 50 3 days after you hit 50.

Cmon Bioware I love this game, stop making bad choices and increasing my chance of losing it.

It is not asinine suggestion. If people feel like they have to "earn" it, then make it that way. Why make others do the same just because you want the sense of "earning" ?

Again, people play game for different reason. Not everyone is here to make a splash in the MMO history.

For me this is game breaking issue and it pretty much killed the game for me. There is really "nothing" for me to do at 50.

I pvped a bit, got to like 52 valor and I am full champion with 3 nearly complete sets. I can own people easily now with my Shadow, why would I grind for Battlemaster? No need....

I pved a bit, got myself some pve gear. In combination with my pvp gear I can do a lot of damage and finish any hardmode/operation. Why would I do more?

Rolling alt? Hmm, leveling and story is fun, but then I think about - "What I will do when the alt hits 50?" "Run two raids?"

This is the first mmo when I feel like I "finished" the game. Yes I could get slightly better gear with mod min/maxing but why would I when there is no need? The game is so easy, you dont have to get the best gear to beat it.

And this is it. The lack of motivation. There is nothing challenging in this game. And if there is, you brutally overgear it before you get to it.

The casual MMO'er will disagree with you.

What I'm not seeing is anyone who has already their gear "so easily" offer to give it up and start over when gearing becomes harder.

I am sure you feel the way you described. I have no doubt that motivate you. At the same time, I am playing the game differently. I do all crew skills. I do that in all MMOs. I am sure it will take me months to gather all the materials to discover all the possible schematics. That is probably not your motivation. Just like end game gears is not mine.

I'm noticing that there are a lot of players complaining about the ease of gearing. It has been suggested that you can delete the gear, or simply not roll for it. What I'm not seeing is anyone who has already their gear "so easily" offer to give it up and start over when gearing becomes harder. I highly doubt that anyone who is geared already would be ok with Bioware taking their gear away since it was obtained "too easily" and having to "work harder to re-gear", even though that would provide the reason to keep playing for which so many are asking.

So, once again, this sounds an awful lot like "I got mine, now make it harder for everyone else."
