Can't you two (TurkishIncubus and Deadly PoisoN) get along without being so agressive with each other? There's no benefits on that, I ask you both to please be kind to each other and share your ideas without so much conflict... What you are doing is the main reason there is so much tension between Non-Varium & Varium players. Please do not start a flaming war, else Mods will surely lock this. Thx for your attention.[:D] On Topic: IMHO, I agree with the most you all said so far. Some Non-Varium players create (or copy, depends on each one's point of view) that resort to luck to smash some Varium players, sometimes succeding. But that's just a particular case of a few builds or only a class (namely Mercs). You cannot look upon Non-Varium players as a whole and stereotype them as Mercs. I understand that Varium players pay & support the game, but bear it in mind, it is not stated anywhere that the game is "Pay to Win". For the Varium players who watch this, you already have your benefits: super-powered items, easy-to-obtain Enhancements... and most important IMO, HUGE variety, which what Non-Variums lack ATM. As said many times in this thread, F2P Bh'ers only have 2 non-Rare Primary wristblades to choose from, both with TERRIBLE Stats (& no Superweapons, like Caden's Wrath & Mjolnir). By nowadays standards (do those exist in this game?), F2P'ers MUST have Rares to have a chance to stay competitive. And its also true F2P'ers are being left down in the gutter by the Stat Inflation (I'm not saying Non-Varium items should have the same stats as Varium ones,mind you). They should at least tweak the F2P weapons to keep up with that . If the stats of Varium weapons get, say, +10 stats generally, Non-var ones should get like +5 or so, so the gap does not widen nor does it narrow. That and giving F2P's some variety. (BTW, if you wonder why I post in short paragraphs, the reason it's simply because I like to spare people the pain of reading wall text).[;)] EDIT: @PhoenixGladiator In my opinion, "smashing" someone because of level diference is diferent from doing the same by taking advantage of Varium advantage. In any way, high or low leveled, Varium or F2P'er, you should always have respect for your opponents.
