Default The Hero System in PvP is bad!

Well, first of all now you can have 3 heros, 2 henchies and yourself playing in PvP which is supposed to be PLAYER vs PLAYER not AI vs AI. But then, the worst part of it is that when the human player dies and the team has no res sigs, your team loses! As if the heroes and henchmen don't count as players capable of winning without one of their team members (which is contradictory to the fact that you can even bring them in)!

Personally, I think this system was thought out very poorly by Anet and that they should definitely rethink the way it is affecting the people who would like to PvP (that's Player vs Player).

PS: I don't want any smartasses telling me "lolz player is teh singular!!! 1 player vsd 1 player!! lolx!!)

kyro27: Excuse you, but we are trying to have a mature adult conversation about computer games and I would appreciate it if you would leave your childish comments out of it. The internet is serious business my good friend.

I agree wholeheartedly. It now seems that it is HvH, and not PvP. Nearly 80% of the teams I face in HA now are Hero-way. I didnt do HA much before, now I do it even less.

Hmm, I used to do a bit of HA before but now I'm reluctant to because of the heroway teams. There's just no point in bringing in a human team (which was the point of PvP right?) if it's just going to get stomped by the same old heroway teams running the same builds...

HA has been garbage for a long, long time now. Anyone that is serious in PvP plays GvG.

No HA for me with PUGs until ANet kick out all these AI-bots.

Heroes for me in HA is fine, but anywhere else, especially GvG is BAD.

HA is suffering from EXTREME elitism atm, this is a way of saying "Ok, you are gonna be like that? Fine, we'll give a workaround to those who you exclude!"

Until you guys mend your ways, people will have a CHOICE. That's what this is about, CHOICE. HA elitists are now seeing just how many people they were denying HA in the first place.

I really like your post here man. Maybe the elitists will start to play with/help the newer players. The more people who learn to play well, the more competition there will be more, the more players there will be to teach other new players, PvP expands forever. Interested to see what they do.

we are digressing, please stop with the personal attacks.

Now riddle me this batman. HA is all about cookiecutter builds. both Ai and Player teams have the same skills, armor, and skill level. Both AI and players kite and know E managment. Even the heros only play with 1 person, just like most HA groups. So what's the real problem here? I hope this isn't a scapegoat thing because someone you know lost alot.
