16k rps per hour and some of that wasnt even active RVR

so in 1.5 hours got about 35-40k rps (5-6k of that was from heals) 70k heals

big rps, means a lot of people able to get alts to rr5 so thats good at least:)

Actually its shit.. achieving high rr was the only challenge left in the game and now that isnt even a challenge. I was on 20k/hr duo. 1k a kill. Fucking rediculous tbh. Nothing really to aim at now.

First make all pve easier, then nerf the hell out of ToA so that isnt a challenge, and now they made it so that i just need to sneeze on the enemy and i get rr10.

So really whats left? At least I should be back to group rvr, and should get a challenge from fighting decent groups. But that just because we make that challenge ourself, the game doesnt give anything now :s

And before people say what they say in other thread. Got a Job, got a partner, got a social life. Play at most 16 hours a week (not even that most the time) so in many respects i fit in the "casual player" region, just like to have something that pushes you that little bit more :s

Fun? Good fights? More RAs to use? rps!=skills as u say urself so whats the big deal that EVERYONE gets a bit more rps per kill?

Most of the whine on these threads is for addin etc etc because people want a fair fight (ive always considered this to be false) people getting upset now because some casual players going to be getting to the higher RR's and actually giving them a fair fight with same RR rather then a "Fair" fight with a RR8 v a RR3

Finally all the whiners get a fair fight that they've been crying for and what do they do?

They WHINE! ROFL :worthy:

Yeah, how lame to whine about that people now can use 4 weeks on achieving something someone else used 1-2 years on? (exaggerating ofc but the point remains standing)

True but who cares?
I play for fun, don't really care if some "newcomer" catches up my RR, not trying to be the best etc..

Tho i don't like artis who made my sidi-stuff worthless :)

All true.. but the thing that allmost sucks the most for the new player that u have to have 2acc's to stand a chance in RvR (if ur a stealther or solo)

To be honest, I think the rp rates will drop off, if we lost the irvr, since there would be alot more travelling for a fight, which would impact hourly rate.

i have no problem with getting rps for heals as tanks get rp's for damage, seems fair to me.

It was the only thing they could have done to even out the battlefield and give new players a chance. What else should they have done? Wipe all RP's and give everyone a fresh start?

Hardcore players who have played for 4 years and still play 24/7 are suppose to have an advantage over casual players.

its not like its hard to get fully toa'd and rr11 if you wanted, just had to spent alot of time in fixed grps, now its piss easy to do it.

Most ppl play daoc for fun, not to get rr11 which is eventually easy, always was, always will be.

As ive said many times before by now, i would rather have cheaper RAs -.-

I do agree that there was a need to balance high and low rrs.

and they do have an advantage, they have more knowledge and probably more tricks and should know how to play thier class better.
What makes me laugh is the people that have been saying they want fair fights (1v1, 8v8 ect), but what is fair when a RR10 FG fights a RR3 FG, the RR10 group will rip through them without even breaking a sweat.
Wheres the challenge in that?
If the changes allow thoose of low rank to get into a position that the high RR groups actually have to work to win then isnt that going to be more satifying?

Given the rate of success over last few weeks on the old patch it would have taken over 6 months for me to get to RR5(RvRing 2 nights a week in FG), if this patch means that we can get there faster then im all for it.

Exactly. Our group is RR6 average. We slaughter low RR groups within seconds. Its hardly fun. High RR groups almost always slaughter us like we do low RR groups. Its not fun either.
It will be more interesting when the outcome of a fight is determined by the skill of the players instead the number of realmskill points spent.

Why are some people whining about all the "work" they put in the game to reach a certain RR going to waste?

I mean it's a bloody game, it should be fun, you shouldn't put "work" in it in the first place.
