It ' s bad if you don ' t want p 2 w because there is p 2 w . It ' s even worse if you want a p 2 w game because there is so much RNG on the game you can spend a crap ton of money and not get anything to show for it . There is something in the game called regrades . You can try to regrade your weapon to make it either much better or destroy it . It ' s like 2 % chance to upgrade and 98 % chance to destroy at higher levels but still people do it because it ' s the end game objective . What do people do when trying to end the game ? They regrade their best weapon and if they get lucky like 12 chance out of 100 they can get weapons that people who spent 30004000 still don ' t have . They introduced a limited time event that gave you a non break charm that allowed to upgrade your weapon AND remove the chance of the weapon being destroyed . Most people got nothing out of it but they gave a lot of lucky people weapons that cost a crap ton of RL money . Everyone that missed the event was fucked because now a lot of people were running around with incredibly good weapons gear scales a lot in this game , to the point were a guildie of mine who spent around 15000 could 1 v 20 people and you were fucked . And considering the game revolves COMPLETELY around PVP it ' s a pretty big deal . So people who had spent a crap ton of money were fucked because now a lot more people had much better weapons . People who missed the event were fucked because it could take over a year to get to the point were the people who got a successful regrade were at . New players are fucked because even if they go to a fresh start server they will have to compete with people with really good gear down the line and there is no way they can reach their level of strength unless the other player stops playing which is unlikely because if you have good gear in the game it ' s pretty fun , you get to steal from everyone and pretty much do whatever you want with anything else , it ' s like playing an MMO where you ' re a superhero and everyone else are normal civiliansThat ' s just an example . Trion fucks up a lot honestly . You have to be a huge whale to actually enjoy the game in the long run . Personally what bothered me was the RNG more than the p 2 w , it ' s out right gambling .
