Leave GA alone

It is hard to explain this to some players: when I look and see all my opponents have not geared almost 100 characters it is clear that these players are focused on grand arena and keeping their GP low. I don’t want to fight them! Their GP should be at least twice mine. I feel great disgust at the suggestion that I should keep my GP low so I also can victimize players. Keeping your GP artificially low should not be they key to winning in Grand Arena. If your going to bracket everyone to GP then the rewards for whining with high GP should also be higher. Because the brackets start is not based on winning or losing...you are literally saying the high GP players are “better” and should only play others on the same level. This will encourage players who should be high GP to do something other than handicap most of there team just so they can compete against weaker players. If you are constantly trying to fight the weakest players your not really proving your the best. When you target the best and you beat them...then you are the best. So there should be greater rewards for a high GP...or use something besides GP to determine the bracket.

Or they only gear teams that they use for something. For example, once you can beat every pve event, do well in the raids (4 good hstr teams since there isn't time to run many more than that in a competitive guild anyway) there is little to focus on other than building good ga or tw teams.

And if you build one or two teams at a time you usually end up with a lot of un geared characters. I have been doing it this way far longer than ga has been around. Mostly because I found that having a roster full of g5 or g7 characters did nothing to help me do better in any part of the game and usually only led to me having to waste energy farming a new character's low level gear because I had wasted it on a character I'm not using.
