Recently, Joel our GD said that in preparation for PvP unchained there will be some "evening out" of the damage numbers between classes and gear. It was just a sentence but it was probably THE most important sentence uttered by any GD to date.With that being said, I can only extrapolate from this sentence that FC is going to attempt to do the almost fantastical (and insanely awesome if successful) that is Joel Bylos is going to finally... BALANCE PvP.
I can't stress enough the MASSIVE changes the game will go through if this is indeed what Joel is proposing. Financially, FC profits may double as a flood of PvPers that have left begin to come back. The about face from PvE junk(and PvE by definition is junk, killing computer controlled mobs over and over versus testing your skill and mental fortitude against a thinking breathing human being is night and day in terms of enjoyment).
to PvP bliss may become the games watershed moment.
If indeed this is what's happening and with the advent of PvP unchained a host of changes like flagged open world PvP, balanced classes, PvP gear that works/matters, individual ranking system, and PvP exclusive rewards like red skulls name tags will be implemented, what do you believe is the single biggest obstacle for Joel Bylos to overcome? Do you think this task is possible? What are your recommendations to Joel? And what do you believe will change the most about the game ? Discuss.
