I made it through gw. Not necessarily more difficult than it was before. Just much more agrivating and time consuming. At top level, of course your portectiOn is gone after the first few nodes. So why does every new node get to start out with fresh protection? I never saw anyone say that gw was too easy and going too quickly. It was the arena that people had problems with.
I am an adult, I have responsibilities. I don't have unlimited amount of time to slog through everything that now takes twice as long.
I don't get it, shouldn't protection balance the various characters?
In my mind, that means tanks with lots of health, shouldn't need much protection and attakers with very little health, like darth maul, deserve much more protection.
The way it is now just means a much larger disparity between the charcters with lots of health and those with hardly any. That's the opposite of balance.
