Champion points QQs

MaxwellC · October 2015

I'm a console plebeian and I know this topic has been beaten to the extreme with various arguments fighting various arguments. Here is my perspective as a player who has less then 200 CP.

All the QQ arguments about players with too much CP needs this ridiculous 501 cap needs to stop. I've beaten some players who had over 300 CP, sure it's no easy task but it's do-able you just have to know what your opponent needs the most and then drain them of that resource; whether it be stamina or magicka.

I think 250 per champion skill tree is fair (750 CP in total as a cap). Players earned a lot of CP, they've grinded it more than I have and played way more than I have so they should dominate me since they're more seasoned than I. I have been 4 shot before and it wasn't fun but I just move on and take said player out later on with help or by their "unfortunate" circumstance e.g. fall damage or wasting all resources. The players who exceed or have exceeded 750 CP cap should be awarded exclusive content,events, or free membership for a certain time frame.

PvP is competitive and PvE is also competitive so with the introduction of CP those who prepare for either PvP or PvE by grinding should always have the advantage as it's no place for the non-hardcore (Sorry carebears you'll have to return to your caves). We shouldn't all have equal footing because one worked harder or had more time than the other; if this was to become the norm then we'd all be equally snubbed.

If you do not believe I have less then 200 CP you are welcome to send me a message or comment on this forum post. I will gladly take a screenshot of my embarrassment for the whole world to see.

Yep, this precisely.
Which is why I don't see the point in repeating these same arguments over and over again. Sorry but there are truly enough CP-threads already, and you don't bring any new argument really.
- Do more CP mean a real advantage or does skill matter more (=> miles of debates)
- Is "grinding" an effort towards skill or just a dumb mechanic to bloat stats ? (=> further miles of debates)
- Do long-hour-players deserve to have such an advantage over people who "have-a-life" ? (by now with the miles of accumulated debates you've reached the other side of the Atlantic)
- Is it fair that newcomers to the game can never catch up ? (visit the Berlin Wall while you're there)
- Is 501CP the correct cap ? (you're in Asia, enjoy)
- Why call people with less playtime "carebears" or "QQers" (now that was the 747 which brought you back home)

Around the Earth in one debate. Congratulations.

Obviously why I stated it first defending the players who have "High CP". My argument doesn't bring anything new but a perspective from a player that has less than 200CP.

Players who cry about "this person had more CP therefore they were OP" brought this kind of cap along aside from the live stream richlambrent saw with the emperor soloing IC sewers molag bal. I say carebears as a reference to all the players who say that they cannot preform well in PvP and blame CP rather than the lack of their skills; sorry but PvP and PvE are too different mechanics.

PvP you've got players who actually think (for the most part) how to over come said foe while PvE they're parameters in place that anyone can learn over the course of playing them over and over again.

I'd at-least like if you make a relevant post stating why my perspective is incorrect in your eyes rather than stating how various debates can be made about points I mentioned or didn't mention. The added random "Atlantic", "Asia", etc are not needed as well.

The main issue most players have with CP is the console department due to the transfers maybe I should state that I'm a console player in my beginning post.

I won't lie and act like I didn't complain about imbalances of CP but that's before I adjusted and learned my skill bars to counter players upon engagement. Players need to start learning how to play rather than blame it all on CP, in some cases yeah CP is the issue but in others it is far from it.

Addition: Did I ever say all players who has less playtime are carebears or QQers because I for sure didn't nor did I make any implications of it. I did say "Grinding" and referred that PvP is competitive and so is PvE e.g. Trials. If I'm not mistaken you can grind gear or mats (IC) to get your preferred set(s) to prepare for PvP or PvE CP is just a added element.
