Suggestion: Getting PvP weapons with Balthazar Faction
Inplement PvP weapons to be obtained with Balthazar faction, instead of reward points... only the weapons, keep the armors as it is.
That would be an incentive to play all forms of pvp and also be an incentive to get pvp titles because fancy and exotic weapons would require higher amount of balthazar faction. For exemple, Basic weapons cost 10k faction, fancy 30k, exotic 60k and zodiac/tormented a few more.
I believe that would also reduce the number of leavers in Random Arenas, because the reason they do is cuz they only want gladiator's points and don't care about balthazar faction.
Also, since you can get pve weapons to pvp characters and customize them, it's not really a big deal...
just a suggestion... sry if it has been already sugested...

Go get better at pvp and do AT's.
If it's just balth then you can farm 12k a day easy with the Zaishen and Zaishen elite.
No thanks, sorry.

If i remember correctly you can only get 2 or 3k max from those a day, and if you read the thread he suggested 60k for fancy skins, which is for example r13 hero is you dont have anyother pvp titles.

I've thought of something similar as well, but also require the character to have all the skills of that class unlocked.
and at R!ghteous Ind!gnation, the line between PvE and PvP skins is becoming blurred. I could respond by saying while we get to switch armors with greater ease, you get access to more places by leveling up your PvE character. I can't take my PvP character into DoA.
The skins are just a reward for time invested...whether it be PvE or PvP.

If he was r13 hero....he wouldn't be starting that thread, he'd have those weapons, or he wouldn't care.
REGARDLESS. The system is in place for this.
This is thread #1000 asking for this.
Or just grow a pair, customize your weapons, make sure you have GOOD multiple sets of armor, and throw your PvE character into PvP.

Snow Bunny dude your thoughts about me makes no sense...
if I sucked in pvp I wouldn't say 60k for fancy weapons and even more for zodiac/tormented weapons, cuz getting PvP titles to be able to get 60k Max Balthazar faction is not for anyone...
Actually i'm close to top 100 in hero battles and I get around 20 reward points on each HB ats, which means I can unlock 2 basic weapons in 1h 45min, but getting 20k balth faction takes a LOT more time.

Look, nobody cares if you are a noob or a great PvP player.
It has no impact on the quality of your suggestion, which I think most people will disagree with. After all, armor you can't get on a PvP character without reward points. But you CAN give perfect PvE weapons to PvP characters and customize them.

And your point is??? I do that myself, I don't get PvP weapons for that reason... that's another reason why it should be changed! (wow really... whats your point here...)
I know my experience on pvp doesn't matter, just had to say that cuz that other guy said I was just suggesting this cuz I couldnt get reward points...
The reason why I think it should be changed is that balthazar faction would be fun to spend again for players with most/everything unlocked and reward points would still be fun to obtain and spend on armors. Is that clear now? What's so terrible about this??

I have a hard time understanding why people shoot these ideas down every time they're suggested. I really honestly dont see any harm in giving some variation in weapon skin choices in PvP instead of no variation at all. I don't care if I don't have pretty equipment, I just dont want it to look like crap(the warrior equipment is horrendous)
Hell, they give you different armor choices, why not 4-5 weapon choices?
This wouldnt infringe with the PvE community OR the HB community particularly if they're common skins.
Whats the deal with everyone?

My point is that it is already pretty easy to get "leet" weapon skins in PvP. No need to make it even easier.

The problem is that most casual PvP players like the OP wont have the capacity to be able to buy any of these because they dont have enough PvP titles or capacity to hold 60k balth faction. Not to mention that all the same skins are already easily and readily available....

PvP weapons are rewards for tournaments.
I would agree adding all year rewards, but things like those obtained with victory tokens, not PvP weapons.

I will not discuss this with pve'ers anymore. You guys think it would be EASIER to get leet weapons...
Do you know how long would take to get 50 basic weapons then 50 fancy weapons just to unlock exotic? It's 2 million balthazar faction, really think that is easy to get? (50x10k + 50x30k, *sigh* I should have explained that too)
GvG players can get that much faster... GvG ats gives around 60 reward points...
All I wanted was to be able to spend my faction on someting different then tournament tokens... but oh well, guess pve'ers wont let that happen

Cloud, I agree with you that the system we have right now isn't perfect and is kinda broken. I just don't like your proposed system.
And don't think of us as "simple minded PvErs" please. I actually have plenty of GvG experience.

This is something similar to what the reward point system should have been. Purchases of weapons with Balthazar Faction would have been much better than requiring reward points. Having a 65k faction cap and absolutely nothing to spend that on is useless. Reward Points is an annoying system because;
AT's are not as good a system as people thought they would be.
If you miss the first match you don't get reward points, regardless of if you play the other matches.
