How often have you entered a PvP instance and 5 guys are trying to take down one dude who is supposedly the same level as you all are? I've seen it time and time again, and see people leave PvP never to come back.


Did you ever think this might be about what skills they use and their skill as a player? The list you put down is from ESO and they are introducing a PVP server that doesn't use champion points which will balance it some.

This is supposed to put players on the same level unless you suggest all level 10s go against each other, all 11s etc.

If you played Rift, Star Wars, Elder SO, etc...with "scaling" features and "Legendary armors" basically making it Gear/Weapon based versus skill based.

10-15, 16-20, 21-29, 30-45, etc Tier PvP (Starwars had this)

some breakdown like this. 15's are destroying 10's, but when they hit 16, the tables turn. A 12 can beat a 15, it will just be a little harder.

Ideally, When you enter PvP...all your purple,green,gold,blue items...turn the generic white version. So no matter what level 50 armor piece you have on, it will be the same stats as everyone else's armor piece for that class.

It might have 15% to do with their win, but when I'm hitting someone of my class for 1,500 and the dmg meter has them using that same skill against me for 5,200.....while possible to beat him, I have to be perfect with every dodge, block, or parry.(eating up my all my stamina while he can take a few shots and brush it off)

The only thing could be consumables.(i never)

Dude drinks 10 things boosting armor, HP, etc...on top of his champion points.....he's playing the game, I guess....but if you have to use roids and better equipment....then what's the skill? "I skillfully use things to give me an advantage"? Not, I know how to counter that, I know how to block that, I know how to combo you..
