Everything you feared about stones is true... from their live broadcast...

This update is not about appealing to the PvE masses though.

- That's why PVE players are the building block at the bottom of the food chain, required to farm TV stones?

Believe it or not, but PvP players are capable of farming trash mobs for stones just as well as PvE players are, if not better.

PvP players do go to PvP areas for the thrill of encountering and fighting other players, true, but that does not mean they sit on their hands until a player target happens to wander by. The surrounding mobs and the stones they drop are a welcome bonus.

Why does it take 27 pages? Seriously. I'm legitimately curious as to why people think pvp players won't just farm the stones for themselves if no one is around.

I plan on farming the gankers that try to farm pve players. Pst me if you get ganked on AD @sixuponthelot

The moment you PvPer start killing NPCs to grind VTs, then you have just become a PvEer until you are done with killing NPCs.

In that case however the PvE'rs that you claim are the "building block required for farming TV's" are hardly "at the bottom of the food chain.", like you said.

Anyone who thinks that they are is in for a nasty surprise.

The whole time where you, oh noble PvPer, are killing NPCs and being a PvEer, you are indeed the bottom of the food chain. Among the various considerations, even a noble PvPer killing NPCs in PvP gear and spec is still at great disadvantage and will be the bottom of the food chain because other PvPers will attack him while he has got 3-4 NPCs beating on him. The result is statistically quite deadly, hence the "bottom place" in the food chain.

Nevermind.
