IMO, if PvPers think it's unfair they should play in a controlled environment where only skill determines the outcome of fights. Like say, any of the following: Quake 3, Unreal Tournament, Counter-Strike.

Woot!

Go for it! It diminishes the accomplishment but that was bound to happen eventually anyway.

I do agree though, for a PVP exile guild to be gearing up the people they PVP against. You have to really want that level playing field, or just want to make life more difficult for yourself.

Mythicals being compared to PvP nuclear weapons? I have a hard time buying into that argument.

I'd buy mine and have no qualms about it. I'm from a casual PVE guild because I can't make the time commitment to be in a hardcore guild. But when I do play, I excel at it and want to be the best I can be. I'm 99% sure we won't get mythical updates until the level cap gets raised again.

Is it unethical? I don't see a difference between buying a mythical update and buying a master/rares/items off the broker, or donating for a port to KJ, or back in the day, a CoH to naggy or SoS forge; consigning wurmslayer and BCG for other people who haven't worked up their tradeskillers; bidding on loot rights. In all cases, I'm purchasing with plat I've earned in game, someone else's efforts and time because I can't/don't want to spend my time doing it. Purchasing the help of 23 other people to get my mythical updates. How's that different than paying 2p to 1 person for a tynnonium because I don't want to harvest for an hour? Or paying someone who's done 500 writs for faction for a respec mirror? A large part of this game is about buying other people's 'time and effort'.

But from the selling guild's perspective, I can totally understand if guildies didn't want to sell their 'effort and time' and their leaders did it anyway. I'd have a beef about it too. But that's easily solved. Find a new guild, don't show up to those raid nights where they're selling slots. Boycott. I support you 100%. Your issues are with your guild leaders, not the people who buy what you put up for sale. But for guilds where the members are all for the extra plat, sign me up!

Confirmed will gladly do so for a small fee!

I think that is a reward a those who put the effort and time into getting their mythicals. I think they deserve to take the money of the folks who can't do it.

If your guild does things you don't agree with, it is your own fault for staying.

osibia

on pve i think its ok to sell the updates, but on pvp I think its wrong, why? on pvp you dont really want other players to get a step closer to you.

EQ2 PvP is so fucking jacked up it doesn't even matter.

Mythical or not, people are still going to evac to sit in immunity so they can recharge their fucking evac.

This is just something for the drama pimps to whore out to their adoring fans.

TANGARTH

It's in general gameplay, not the PVP board.

And the OP only asked if there was a difference in pvp and pve in the last line of the post.

So....
