Or at least that’s the impression I get when the RvR lakes are completely deserted lately, and doing a /who 40 yields a result of almost everyone on your side in Lost Vale or the city dungeons. Welcome to Ostermark—a balanced server.

Would Warhammer Be Better Without Scenario Exp?
Player Versus Developer —
... The charge of "forcing PVP players to do PVE" is one that I can't rebut, though the truth is that this may have happened anyway with Warhammer's current system of ward armor. There's also the issue that not having to PVE to PVP was one of the game's talking points in comparison to WoW, and taking away the RVR-only progression path might have encouraged players to compare the two games on solo-PVE content (where WoW generally wins, since that's arguably the game's main focus today). ...

Gear
iamapaladin.blogspot.com 3/12/2009 — It's sort of funny how much things change. I mean if you think about it, our character never really changes in physical looks unless you pay for it. What we wind up working for in WoW is for the pretty skin that the clothes, ie gear, our character wears in game. Sure said gear has pretty stats ...
WAR gear = epic win
rog.gameslate.com 9/25/2008 — I'm loving the itemization of Warhammer, especially the visual appearance of the gear. They've hit some sort of sweet spot between reasonably realistic and clever, with the comedy still there right hanging from dangly bits and whatnot.

slashrandom.wordpress.com 10/30/2008 — Ok, I’ve spent a couple posts talking about RvR, what’s good about WAR, why we (the internet community) is mostly focused on the negatives, and why I think Mythic’s error in pushing RvR over PvE isn’t the worst mistake in the ...

Warhammer Online: a new hope for open RVR
walloftext.info 10/30/2008 — WAR is a brand new mmorpg and has its fair share of issues, like any new mmorpg would. Its not for everyone, and takes a certain mindset to enjoy it fully. If you like heavily PVE focused games like EQII, WoW, etc...there's a good chance that WAR just ...
