Lower the cost of War Hero and other Higher end gear.

That doesn't sound right...

What he means is anyone crazy enough to grind a full set of WH when you got to trade 3 to 1 for them obviously isn't going to see their cost as too much now that you can get ranked WZ commendations.

The cost for WH is okay if you assume this is the only set of armor you'll ever grind out. There's certainly no way I'll do it twice.

I'm almost done gearing out my second toon in WH. After that, I'm done. No way am I bothering to do it on a third toon.

Once wasn't so bad. Twice was a bit of a drag. Three times...no way in h*ll.

Actually no, this is what almost invariably happens:

1. Company announces gear for sale.
2. Guys in full WH quit the game (or claim to) even though they'd still be #1.
3. Eventually the gear sold would be some high blue/low purple gear that costs a stupid amount of money.
4. More people quit (or claim to) due to this perceived injustice.
5. Some guy actually buys the overpriced gear and realizes he still gets smashed by WH characters and quits the game.

In fact, F2P fails because they don't go all the way enough. If I'm crazy enough to spend real money on gear, I expect to be able to buy Conquerer gear right now.

Currently doing my 3rd. It's painful. Made more painful by the fact that having done it twice, I don't feel like an entitled kid asking for something for nothing, I feel like I already earned it.

WH armor should be legacy unlocks, like once you obtain a piece of WH that piece is available for the cost of a BM on all your characters. I can buy this 'one time initiation' thing but I do have other characters that I want to play too.

Hope you have fun pvping against less and less players because thats whats happening and the grind to win mantra is a large part of it.

I agree with you, when u make things to easy to get..people get there items, and get tired of the game and quit. You have to have items and rewards to look forward to. If everything is a hand out, or easy to get..there is nothing rare and fun to go for. And, game subscriptions will decline. Actually ,Warhero is not to hard to get now. That first big patch really catered to short term players. And, made the hard cores a bit frustrated. This is not a console game where u get everything right off the bat..get tired and grab a new game in a year. This game is a MMO...and u have to have rewards, and make some things a little difficult to keep people playing. If everything is made to easy, u will get people in and out of the game quick. I am really hoping we can be awarded for Valor again in some fashion. Every 10 levels..some kind of crystal / weapon. You keep people playing when they can look forward to something.

Actually a lot of people were mad about BM gear becoming a hand out. We had a lot of people start to quit when the info on that new patch hit. People should stilll have to go through the process to get rewarded..or else u will not have a population. You just cant make things that easy..you tick everyone off. Getting things to easy ruins MMO's. You might have a lot that complain..but majority likes things rare. So when they mess with that....you will see a decline in players. It makes people mad. Furthermore, when people get items fast..they get tired of the game and quit.

It's a MMO. i started out low as well..now I am WARHERO..and things are good. It's not a big deal..you have losses and you work to get better. Just like doing things in real life. You work at something you will get better. Same with the game. I enjoy it..its fun to work for that cool item. Otherwise the game would be boring. People that complain about this stuff..should go play a console game. Console games u pretty much have everything u need. And that is not a insult. MMO's dont quit..u keep playing. That being said, u have plenty of time to reach your goals and to better your character. And you will finnally pickup the gear and be bad ***
