I appreciate the advice, Skiws, but like I have said I never was a farming monkey, I only farmed the farm monkeys in the past but faction superman suits have made that a thing of the past. Which is why I can understand why you guys are trying to hold on to them for dear life.
Heres the thing, The Days of GM Armor are Long gone, Even Vs me in my Non Faction suit, your GM Armor and Bad Gear will make you a laughable fight.
Yes I understand where you are comming from with your perspective of Faction gear, but that is becase you yourself (Like So many Others *Sigh*) Are undergeared even Compared to a Good Non Faction Suit.
GM Armor has a Lot of Trouble against Faction Suits - Yeah, But GM Armor has Just as much trouble against a Non Faction Suit with 60 DCI, 40Lmc, 25 HPI.. Ect..
You cant run GM armor anymore and expect to me a effective pvper, It just doesnt work, Factions or No. (Unless you are fighting a complete failure)
----------------------
Now heres something, I had a lot of Spare time tonight and you were complaining about How your template cant farm ect ect.. Now this is *Kinda* True, as i Explained, With Proper Gear and Possibly Wraith Form *I didnt Test it*, You can farm enough to supply yourself a little.
Here ya go..
Suit Stats are..
40 LMC
26 HCI
46 DCI
44 DI
40 EP (For Stat Potions)
46 Mana Inc
35 Stam Inc
+26 Med Skill
70 69 66 64 64
100 65 165 (Hp, Stam, Mana)
...
Things you would of Spent gold on :
Sam Helm, Quiver, Imbued Weapon, Totem of Void
Imbue Cost : 35 Relic Frags, 50 Fungi (Only two things outside of Gems and Low end stuff)
----------------------
With just using a Soul Seeker (You would use a UBWS Imbued Raidiant for AoE or UBWS Rune Blades for Single Damage) for a weapon, I could kill low end stuff enough to get "Farmable" Gold.
And By using Ninja Mirror Images and Cat Form for HP Regen Heals.. With Weapon leech, I could stay alive..
I Only used, Mirror Image, Focus Attack, Whirl, Bladeweave, Animal Form..
And I'd Suggest fighting Physical Attack monsters..
And being stealth based, If you get Raided by a Random, You have Hide/Stealth/Animal Form/Smoke Bombs to *EASILY* Get away without losing the Suit.
-----------------
Alright... Now heres the reason I did this..
With a Suit Like that and a Template like that... You can *Kinda* Farm enough to supply yourself Non Factions sorta..
But with that Template and a High % Leech UBWS Raidiant Scim with Snake Slayer, Your Template (Which Struggles to Supply Itself Non Factions Due to being a Pure Pk/PvP Template) can pretty easily supply yourself, without the need to make your Only Char (1 Char/Account) a PvM Based Char, so you can Supply for PvP.
Factions allows even Pure Pk/PvP Templates with almost No PvM utility the ability to supply themselves for PvP with Arties of the same level as everyone else in Factions PvP and that is Exactly Why removing them is a Bad thing.
