Of course platoons become less
important with the ongoing power creep, but if this happens anyway, then why need platoons to be missused like this? Why not just keep the requirements constant? That would give guilds at least a goal to work for.q
When they initially started to push some newer toons into platoons, some people claimed that this will give guilds a goal to work for and is therefore ok.
Now that the new toons get pushed into territory battles before they are even released, the next excuse is, that it doesn't matter anyway. This is a pretty lame excuse for a failed mechanism in the beginning. The currently flawed platoon concept should be changed. It cannot be that new toons achieved for hard bucks are used for NOT playing the main game itself.
