How GEAR dependent will WAR be?

I sure hope WAR doesnt turn out to be another PvP GEAR fest grind like WOW is i mean its bad enough the game looks and feels just like a clone, meaning a newly leveled 70 in WOW has close to no chance against a fully Geared out S2,S3, S4 and T5/T6 character in PvP.

If this ends up being the case WAR will not last past WoTLK (WoW expansion) most folks will not want to "re-grind" from scratch while already having a max level toon elsewhere with new content awating.

    Shouldn't this go in the:

    "This games is a clone of WoW" section?

    That Guild Wars 2 login screen knocked up my wife. Must be the second coming!

    I could of sworn I've seen a similar post like this already. Because this is a game about PvP skill, it won't be about the gear. Same thing as in Guild Wars. It's all about the skill, not gear.

    Only if the game is true to " a newly leveled 70 in WOW has close to no chance against a fully Geared out S2,S3, S4 and T5/T6 character in PvP."

    Then yes and the game will not reach large subscriber numbers to turn a profit due to WoW's upcoming expansion.

    they had a percent on this, i believe gear is a 40%

    But its always about group cordination and skill, on a 1v1 yea gear would effect more.

    But WAR is balanced around large numbers not 1v1

    If this hold true then WAR here i come! cause lord knows PvP in WOW has become a joke when any heavily geared player can almost take on 2,3 even 4 at one time and kill them all :(

    i know thats a bummer. u wont find that in war, gear gives u an edge but never out weighs ur skill.
