It's time. Shut off CP in PVP.
We all know it. It's the elephant in the room. If the CP changes make there way into PVP, there will be unkillable people running all over the place in CP PVP.
1) People are getting 8k+ HP regen no problem at all on PTS with CPs. Imagine 8k+ HP regen with heal bots and purge bots running around with you in PVP.
Endless stalemates.
Most people don't build to do damage in PVP, they build to not die and out tank everything. They would rather bring 30 friends to kill 1 person than actually get a 1v1 going.
Small scale PVP is going to be further out of reach and everyone is going to just tank everything.
2) Another thing to consider is that CP is a major barrier to entry for new players to PVP. Imagine starting with no CPs and having to grind for 6 months to get enough CP to have any semblence of competitiveness against average high number CP players.
3) Wild guess but the calculations associated with CPs contributes at least 10%+ to the lag.
