This PvP sounds terrible. What the hell is resilience? Why would damage reduction not be based off AC or armor type instead? Why would a healer have more damage reduction than a tank?

Resilience is a "damage resistant" statistic meant to be for all sources of incoming damage. It was adopted in the burning crusade because people in cloth armor cried about being two shot by melee at close range (duh, winning?)

It works in two ways

It reduces damage from melee, spells, DoTs, and pets by a certain degree

It also reduces the chance to be critically hit by drastically reducing the damage your critical hit does making it more along the lines of a normal attack.

In a sense:

1% Resilience will:

* Reduce damage from all crits by 2.2%
* Reduce all player-caused damage by an additional 2%
* Reduce mana drained by 2.2%


It's especially overpowered because it can stack with AC, resistances, and damage reduction talents and skills, not to mention there are dodge, parry, and block mechanics in place that always have an innate 7.5% and can be stack to be upwards of 28% to go along with the previous resilience.

L2PvP Abacab, theres not reason a Disc Priest should be able to kill you....Sure you wont be able to kill them but if you were half way talented on how to play your class youd also never die.

I play WoW FOR its pvp. Sure theres some imbalancing but its far more advanced in PvP then EQ could ever hope to be.

I dunno WTF youre doing wrong do only be doing 10k crits with PvE gear lol. Abuse CS before it gets nerfed to shit by half in PvP.

The arguement PvE vs PvP. WoW PvE is NOT fun at all anymore, its watered down so much now its pathetic.

Ill agree with you about one thing Vanilla is where it was at, both PvE and PvP.

oh and its not easy to get 4k res, only hybrids stacking 2x 2 piece bonus can reach it, or gemming the fuck outta your gear, which not matching sockets is mostly a no no.

Blood DK is ridiculously overpowered, they can tank any encounter in BWD/BoT for a good 45 seconds without heals, I've known a blood who was able to solo tank chimaron cause his self healing kept him above 10k at all time

Yea, I played a Blood DK through WOTLK and into early Cata. The massive amount of self-healing and magic dmg reduction was a huge boon in PVE, made things lot easier for my 10man. But then I got bored with MTing, went Mage so I could pew pew anonymously from the crowd, then got bored with Mage and find it a chore logging in for raids =/

This whole situation makes a lot more sense as we learn that the red team is actually a bunch of Blizzard fan boys..

I love PvP, and I couldn't even play WoW PVP past a few battlegrounds. Raided casually in TBC for 2-3 months, got most of my BISs and quit.

EQ PvP is much more sophisticated, mostly just because it's EQ.

I suggest you all go outside.
