Hello everybody!
I have a sin 39lvl atm with pvp 2lvl. My plan was to stay at 39lvl until pvp 3lvl and then level up to 59 so I'll play again minis until pvp4 or 5. My thought was that when I'll reach lvl80 I'll be also pvp4 or 5 in order to be able to buy immediately pvp4 gear from armory.
I said "my plan was", cause I start to reconsider. While waiting for minis to occur, I spend time in armory and I compare pvp gear with raid and khitai gear from aoc>tv.
I end in some conclusions
a) pvp4 gear is CRAP. It is easier and less time consuming to obtain appropriate khitai purples for my sin with even or better stats than pvp5 gear.
b) raid gear (especially T4) is far more superior than any pvp10 gear.
c) When I'll be grinding khitai I'll also earn AAs which are significant for PvP survivability.
d) a+b+c = I am wasting my time in 39 minis and I'll wasting my time in 59 minis.
What do you think? Do you agree with my conclusions or I am missing info and I cannot see the big picture? Many AoC players says that you should reach pvp5 before reaching 80lvl. Why do they say that? Without Khitai I could agree... But considering the above conclusions I disagree.
Please AoC veterans, enlighten me!!!
PS lately when I am logged in there's not many 39minis running. I barely catch one or two matches. So pvp leveling is even more time consuming procedure...
