You have to remember that this game is geard toward PVP. I play it BECAUSE its a PVP game.... fighting humans is MUCH harder than fighting monsters (as a general rule)
People get bored and dont compete in PVP because its hard to unlock the extra stuff for PVP...
This means that for the people who dont have LOTS of time (and no life) etc etc.. have a definate advantage over those whom do not!
Now that its "easyer" to unlock those extra features it means that the opponents you face will be considerably harder to defeat than previously.
Yes, its now easyer to go through the RPG aspect of the game, but the part of the game which is most important will be ALOT more difficult.
This is a GOOD thing

Anyone else with thoughts about how this will effect the PVP scene? anyone worried that PVP might become more difficult for those who dont really want to go through the story?
