It absolutely should be a thing.

Assuming equal skill and level, best in slot gear should put you at no more than an even footing with two players in the worst easily obtainable gear. Three such geared players should have a fairly easy time, and four should literally be able to steamroll over you.

Not suggesting one shots again, but punish players for not using skills correctly etc. in group pvp. I get the game is about GROUP PVP.

Yes, we definitely need proper group synergy that requires higher skill to successfully execute. But I feel like that will come closer to endgame (if it's even still planned for the game).

Well, we highly disagree on that, so I got nothing to say there.

I think a group of 4+ players should be able to compete with a fully geared person if they are coordinating. You shouldn’t be able to one shot them all maybe not people with basic gear but I think it’s a good thing that under geared should be able to fight back.

Re: Character Models

Months have passed, characters still look terrible. Did they fire their art division?

I agree. Simply put:

Give us the option to make Feminine looking females and Masculine looking Males.

last time i checked gear should be 40-50% of a player power so its good that a group of weaker players can kill higher leveled ones

Secondary Archetype Worries

I'm sincerely worried that secondary archetypes will not be as robust a system as I'm hoping for. They need to be substantive and make a significant difference to how the classes play. If they're mostly cosmetic or some flavor or a minor ability, it would be extremely disappointing. I know having 64 class options is extremely challenging, but if the secondary archetypes aren't "real" then it would be pointless, imo, to implement them and especially to say they're anything more than flavor.

An Archwizard and a Battle Mage should have significantly different playstyles, for example, not just some reskinned abilities.
