I prefer the DAOC style. It is not too hard to get level 50 gear but leveling you realm rank or valor rank allows you to additional spec points.

In this case, it will be nice if we get 1 spec point to spend every 10 valor rank and remove restrictions on gear. So everyone can get it, but you still have the fun of killing pvp and higher valor rank has real value due its ability to allow different specs.

Why do you have an objection to the first statement and not the second?
You shouldn't be doing the same instances as the hardcore raiders that have already geared up; they are further along in progression. Likewise, you shouldn't be PvP'ing against battlemasters that have a severe math advantage over you on top of what should be their experience advantage.

Then they need to make crafted gear that has expertise. Hell they could just modify crafted gear already in game.

The one thing I don't understand is why it's so hard for them to understand this.

Heck, if you check out the crew skills forum, most crafters are complaining that there is nothing to craft at 50 (everything that could be crafted, better can be gotten far more easyily using daily tokens, pvp, pve, etc).

Craft?

You can just buy the weapon with Expertise around your level from the pvp vender, take out the mod with expertise, put it on your gear.
Do this ASAP, do that ASAP, fix this you *****, fix that you *****, *** is this? FAIL! I unsub!

Good stuff. These are good solutions and I hope they are implemented.

You are kind of left with two options when it comes to this sort of thing. Either nerf the gear, or get it out there faster.

If you read the forums, more and more people are saying they are making alts for the express purpose of getting back to the fun PVP.

The issue is NOT that expertise is giving too much damage, it's that expertise gives too much survival!

EVEN BETWEEN EQUALLY GEARED PLAYERS!!!
You can try to explain PVP to the ignorant... but you cannot Force them to understand it.

Does your adrenaline seriously pump when you PvP? Lol go outside man, climb a mountain or skydive.

I do all of those things.

That does not somehow mean that PVP cannot be more exciting then it currently is.
