Maintenance for the week of April 29:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – April 29

How about the next abilitychanging weps (master, maelstrom, asylum) come strictly through pvp?

    PvP grind is the same grind as PvE. Runninng around with a huge zerg spamming mutagen and gaining PvP ranks or how they did with AP farming about 6 months ago...

    Battlegrounds are more relevant in terms of PvP rewards...

    “Ability changing” items should be under solo trials if you ask me...

    Zergs wouldn't be relevant again if they buffed siege damage again.

    Honestly.....getting the weapons from the new style of Trials like Asylum (short, sweet but still very fun) is so much quicker then say campaign rewards.

    No way lol. In the past I would have asked for the same thing, but with how broken and low population PvP is I would never want this to happen.

    It would be better for them to become available through new content (like Asylum weapons) as well as PvE and PvP leaderboards. You should be able to get those weapons through both PvE and PvP imo.

    Makes sense. Really I don't know why they don't offer these items in the top leaderboard rewards anymore.

    As a 98% PvE player I'm 100% for it. Seeing how transmute crystal are most easily farmed in PvP at the moment I'm quite enjoying going there more, adding another incentive is fine by me.

    Both groups of players want different things all the time. Both groups should end up getting a game they like to play and are rewarded for how they play.

    If it ends up being viable at all I'd even happier.

    Perfected asylum weapons for top 2% leaderboard, and imperfect weapons for top 10%.

    That's all they need to do. But they WON'T, because they might miss out on a couple DLC sales

    While a nice idea, I fear it might mean farming would be done on 7-days camps, with people selling leaderboard spots in there. See what happened with Emperors.

    wait what? a piece of item progression a PvEr (Bot) cant get? are you insane? ppl have been burned on stakes for surgesting much less iritating things in the past! why dont you just claim the earth is flat or something instead. that would be easier to accept for the bots.

    Show me a screen shot of any legit end game PvE content you've done and then we'll talk about how brainless PvE is.

    never ever BiS weapon/armor should come from pvp. People will immediately exploit it and will farm it. Remember Emp farms? You cannot conspire with game mechanics, but you always will do this with other fraction.

    This is true. Also, leaderboards in PvP have more to do with spending time in PvP active rather than the players skill.

    Make it cost 10million AP and your pick. That means on your journey to grand overlord you can buy 6 weapons ;)

    Since this would be in addition to getting them from the trial, I don't see the problem. Top 10% is a time investment larger than running a few nAS. Top 2%, when many others are also trying to get that top 2%, is actually quite tough. Not nearly as tough as nAS, but tough enough

    Multi-faction kill each other circle jerk is indeed a worry. But ZOS has done something about it in the past (during the 2x AP event), and we could hope that they would do so again. It would be very obvious who was involved
