Of course there are always better solutions and I definitely support the one you proposed, it's just that when making suggestions on this forum I take into consideration the capabilities (or lack of) the AO dev "team" has in which case anything other than the simplest of solutions aren't likely to happen. People panic when they see the word "wipe" even if it's wiping something at least 99.9% of the active playerbase doesn't even care about when they play this game. Or they make up lies for whatever selfish reason, like the anti-pvper claiming that he was "farming" his xp daily mission hoarded side-effect VP that he knows he has no use for other than buying a new character a piece of armor or very cheap VP nanos on very rare occasion. Nobody in this game farms more VP than they actually need, characters who have a lot stored have them as a side-effect of pvping or doing dailies. Massive XP and side-token rewards for literally being afk in the battlestation are already 100% absurd, keeping the VP to further reward players with who hoarded them with such terrible slacking mentality/gameplay (in case of what I was suggesting) would be even worse.
Exactly. The problem is these dailies made leveling unbelievably easy and players suddenly think they're mandatory for their game play. They'll even go as far as to justify their existence even if it forces them to participate in content they hate. Making pvm and pvp dailies mutually exclusive is a good start in avoiding the stressful business of players being forced into despised activity only because the reward is something they can't ignore. BS pvp missions work well because they require absolutely no effort to complete; all you have to do is enter the battlestation and your mission is basically complete. Okay battlestation running more often is fine and dandy but people forget that it's a pvp designated area and a majority of characters who enter the battlestation aren't looking to pvp at all. In fact they throw accusations at people who do want worthwhile pvp content, I get idiots on this forum constantly branding me with titles such as lowbie farmer, gimp ganker etc. just because I advocate improvements for pvp regardless of the fact that they don't know anything about me and that I ganked at most 3 sub-220 characters in the past year outside of a pvp designated area. The state of the game is a reflection of that kind of prevalent mentality. Poor, decadent and broken.
That's the most retarded question I've read in a while. If someone is level 215 and in a medsuit they should not look to pvp or simply uninstall this game if they didn't manage to improve their character's equipment for so long. These ridiculous scenario arguments are just that, ridiculous.
