I mean, this could quickly turn into semantics. While datacrons and GAC omicrons are obviously "investments in GAC", there is a lot of gray area. For example, if the next GL is heavily PvP oriented, does getting them count as "investing in GAC"?
Let's not get into that though. The point I was trying to say is a lot more basic. It's just that there is always a power inflation going on naturally which tends to push people downwards. When you paddle upstream, if you stop, you drift downstream.
I agree with your general observation. When you replied to a specific person, I thought you were making a point for said person.
Well, the point is valid for them too. They might have been able to stay in K1 comfortably for a longer while, if there weren't the squishes. It would still have been just a matter of time before they got pushed down because other more GAC focused players would have caught up to them. Otherwise it's basically saying that investing in GAC makes no difference.
See, I would disagree there. Because he is in a top TW guild and obviously spends some, I think the benefit he would get to GAC from focus on TW and TB and some spending and counters knowledge/practice with his guild would be more than enough to keep him in the top 1000-2000 for the foreseeable future.
CG could change their balancing dynamics. But as things are now, there are very few toons that are good/great in TW that aren't at least decent in GAC.
