Interesting. PvP is always hard to get into, for me, just because I don't do it very often, so I tend to get insta-killed.

MMOG Nation —
It’s incredibly encouraging to see Mythic take the bull by the horns , addressing the Open RVR issues that Warhammer seems to be having: oRvR should be a major focus for leveling, item gain, etc. in WAR. Some of the systems are already in place and in Tier 4, oRvR is alive and well. On other Tiers, however, oRvR is not being engaged in as often as we had hoped when we launched WAR. Our goal is to ensure that oRvR is the place where players can level the fastest, get the best items and overall, have a great time while doing it. It is supposed to be riskier, more ...

... correct open RvR contribution rolls should give the beginnings of an open RvR system that feels rewarding for the time played in comparison to Scenarios and grinding PvE. I also am very happy that they have made defending open RvR objectives more rewarding (down with WAR-oboros).
