Why do fresh 50's have the same gear as me

Skill?

What the hell skill is there to button pushing that have timers for CD? You can't push them faster than I, and there are only a few good skills. You might hit a CC ability, a few DPS abilities, and a defensive one. You think you win more matches than I because you have found a special combination of those buttons that is so much better than the way I push them? Man you have an ego.

This is an MMORPG, you play a CHARACTER. If your character can beat mine is the point. No reflection on if you are better, your character is.

The Skill is knowing when to push the button and how to counter the different classes pretty much the same in any game like this. Many want to do the same action with little thought and qq nerf when they don't work for the most part. You don't fight a sorc like a sin or a ops but some try to lol....

Pvp is about skill and not gear.
Well, it should be but the PVP in this game is so terrible it's neither, it's about numbers.

what i read:

omg i'm so bad, that i want to have better gear because i play more,
because that's the only way i can win easily.
competition isn't for me.
waaaaa waaaaaa ='(

Full BM gear requires ~12,000 comms.

In order to gear up in one week would require:

7 dailies+1 weekly = 792 regular comms

leaving ~11,200

Prior to today's patch, a win was around 100 and a loss around 40, the average is 70 comms per match

11,200/70=160 games

160 games/7 days=~23 matches per day

At 15 minutes per full match and assuming instant queues that would be:

23 matchesx15 minutes=345 minutes per day

345 minutes/60=5.75 hours per day.

So nearly 6 hours of impossibly instant queuing per day would get you BM in a week.

That is not going to be the norm AT ALL.

I'd love to see all these gear dependent baddies try and do guild wars 2 pvp. They'd be crying and rage quitting with in a week......

That's what I'm reading too.

This thread is so full of fail it makes my eyes bleed.

what i read:

omg i dont have enough time to gear and im getting face-rolled
so now i have to QQ on the forums
gear =/= competition cause i dont have gear!
