<p>Ok, so today, I was quite happy to finally be able to login to pvp again and possibly enjoy myself.... until I got to the pvp merchant and discovered that it was time to log back out.</p><p>I play mainly caster toons, and I soon discovered that not only do I now have to deal with, SK/Pally INT endline, I also have to deal with this bullcrap they put on the pvp set bonus.</p><p>How fair is it that the ONLY "set" you made up gives a small ward, and then... a "you cannot be killed by a mage" bonus?</p><p>I spent 15 minutes going "root myself" die or "cast cast stifle myself" die or.... "cast stun self" die or "mez self" wait...die.</p><p>PLEASE can I get an explanation for this absolutely absurd excuse for "fixing" the lowbie PvP gear?</p><p>To me, when I hear that the gear is going to be brought in-line, it means the T3 items that give like 10 to 2 stats would finally be a bit better than MC, not just be given some broken stupid anti-mage set-bonuses.</p><p>Please fix!</p><p>/rant off</p><p>EDIT: Also to note, after playing on my only still-playable lowbie, my assassin, I was able to realize, wow even the OTHER set-bonus for lowbie gear is broken.  As it is, if you have that bonus and get hit by ANYTHING, your screwed and stuck in combat. If some people havent' had this issue, i'd like to know how, I spent like 10 mins trying to get to the carpet in SS until I finally realized the reason i kept getting locked in combat was due to the wonderfully ill-made revamped pvp gear.</p><p>IMO if they wanna add set bonus stuff to pvp gear, do more than make like 70% of the pieces go into a "set" (same set) and give a whopping 2 bonuses, make a few diff ones.. its not THAT much harder and you dont 'have stuff like, set bonus A is for everyone and set bonus B is for everyone EXCEPT casters.</p>

<p>You got some screenshots for these items? Not all of us check the lowbie merchant very much.</p>

<p>I don't have any screenies yet but if you want them I'll give em, the fact that anyone can obtain 10% spell reflect is BS IMO... I want a 10% chance to riposte, uncontested... even then honestly riposting one attack has nowhere near the effect of landing a root, mez, stifle, or even a big nuke on yourself... casting time spent n' all.</p><p>Holy McFail in the pvp dept, i'd love someone to take a 2nd or 3rd look at this "improved" lowbie gear and fix this crap, I had to put up with pumice stones being only used against mages/healers and now we have spell reflect to deal with.  I want something that can ONLY be used against melee classes and not against casters for once!</p>
