Not me and most I know we enjoy the gear grind. The chance to learn our class while evading death as a fresh 50 and then competing with those that have the gear and finally being at the apex.
LOL at this bring a BiS slot to a WZ and I will destroy that person, because I pvp. Having pve BiS is not a cure all for the pvp system. I like what they have done with it so far. It still needs tweeks still though. Starting with Maras lol
Just NO
We will see how long GW2 lasts probably about as long as Rift did before wholesale class changes come down to make everyone just the same. I don't mind that casual players want to be treated equal but they should never ever be on the same level as those who put time and effort in the game. The idea of welfare epics needs to go.
Suck it up and learn to play your class first and then get the gear the way the rest of us did.
