For me, the FPE ended last night.

But for others... what's happened?

I recently joined a Random Arena where the monk (and only the monk) had a /Rt secondary. I have screenies to prove it, for the non-believers, but before I upload those screenshots, can anyone explain this to me? I find it... disturbing that some characters still have access to Factions skills. Was there an error made where factions-proffession secondaries slipped through the cracks when the game was patched back to core?

You can have the secondary, but you can't use any of there skills.

But you get to keep the armor for normal chars.

Thanks, I feel kind of stupid for asking ;-) Mods can delete at will, sorry again for not searching pre-post!

I'm refusing to delete my FPE monk, mainly because the new armor gives me an unfair advantage and makes me win.

You can still play your FPE character? I thought we couldn't use them anymore because we didn't have the campaign.

You can still use FPE PvP only chars with secondary of assassin or rit, but all assassin/ritualist skills and all new skills for the other classes are disabled.

My Monk/Mesmer can use all the regualar boonprot skills, but with Factions armor. Gives me a sweet advantage ^^

Let me guess, you have a character in Drok's armor in Ascalon arena too.

This is basically an exploit and it should be bannable. You've said it's an unfair advantage but you're happy and bragging about it. Well you'll only have this unfair advantage for another month, so be sure to milk it for all it's worth.

People like you are the reason I don't like people.

Calm down emo boy.

I had a character in Droks armor in Ascalon arena actually. Even had a 15^50 axe perfect blah blah, I even had cleave.

And if you think it's an issue, complain to Anet.
