He knws that. He is trying to say that because I play on a RP-PVP server, I know nothing about PvP. In reality I don't RP at all, and would be out of my server for another PvP competitive server in no time if I had the chance...

Also, for the record, my toons are all over 18k HP and running best WH Enhancements... I stopped doing the grind for the WH Power mods bc it is becoming increasingly annoying...

I don't want the best PvE gear and I don't deserve it.

However, there should never be a gear disparity in PvP period. It doesn't make sense and it has no room in MMORPGs. The only progression in PvP should be in the ranks to see who are the top dogs and not in gear...

I agree completely. And again, the same logic dictates that the normal queue is not for WH-augmented premades. They shouldn't even be allowed to queue.

Let RWZ decide who's the best of the best. That's what it's for. Keep the soloists and the undergeared out. Couldn't agree more. However, RWZ are seriously lacking players and it's only going to take people longer to grind out the gear while constantly facing geared out teams in the normal queue and losing all the time.

Entitlement == Deserving of same or equal rewards by virtue of having same status regardless of any other factor than that status .

For example :
I am a human thus i have the right to breathe ( here being a human is the status and everything else is the other factors )
I am a paying player thus i have the right to a fair and competitive pvp environment without unfair gear disparity due to time spent ( here paying customer is the status and time spent is other factors )

People throw around words like entitlement and socialism like they are inherently evil . Hopefully after reading this you will realize entitlement is what allows you to live and thus it is not by default a bad thing

If you were not entitled i would *********** climb through your window at night and pop you , you *********** waste of space and oxygen . Have a nice day

At first I thought it would be cool to make RWZ solo que. but it would suck because then it wouldn't be any different then regular wz. So if you made it to where you could solo que you might as well just get rid of ranked. I do however find it difficult to get in ranked but that's because my guild never does them. So I need to do something about it not bio ware. I also think that the gear tiers is good because you earn it and it's an accomplishment in the game. Not just something handed to you. If they just hand it to you, you might as well just be able to make a toon and it automatically be level 50. Yeah I get frustrated because I'm still in BM gear but I'm gonna earn my WH gear I don't want it handed to me.

Being entitled to live is completely different than being entitled to the best pvp gear in a game that forces players to have pvp gear progression.

And Ranked WZ's shouldn't be open to those without full WH gear and a group.

How's that?

You have the right to earn your gear like everyone else. You think your the only one who get frustrated and pissed when you give all you got and die in 20 seconds and there health has barely moved? Your not, again your paying your dues

I always wondered why people would suggest this... maybe a ranked group finder could be used to fill a slot. But would you really want to pug a group into ranked queue's and get put up against a pre-made? LOL

Pretty sure people would be better off playing regular WZ's for gear grinding. Getting handled that bad wouldn't get anyone many coms.
