PVP Rewards

Why is PVP back to only giving rep? No Inf, no salvage, no recipies?

Why have the rewards been removed?

Was doing some testing....seems the 10 minute clock resets if you kill the same toon again. Is that supposed to happen?

Confirmed killing NPC's still give money and insp drops in pvp zones, but yeah, all you get now from killing a player toon is 1 rep.

I find it hard to believe this is working as intended.

Wait, weren't you one of the people *farming* for them on Pinnacle? One of the group that people made threads complaining about?

While it's probably a bug, since I didn't see anything about it in the patch notes - if they ever did get purposely removed, you could - oh, I don't know, look in the mirror.

That said, given that there are notes about typo fixes to Gladiator's Armor, I'd say "bug." The only things removed this issue are the badges Positron talked about for AE. (Edit for 'only things removed.')

If you've only played an AT once (one set combo) and "hate" it - don't give up. Roll a different combo. It may just be those sets not clicking for you.

yes, I do PVP in BB and sirens and everywhere else. I also don't get salvage or any other rewards when I pvp now.

I don't see any mention of any reward changes, recipes or anything, in the patch notes

Farming for PvP recipes has yet to be labeled a "bad thing" by the devs. Farming for PvP recipes is the same as farming for purples.

Also, there have been "Stealth nerfs" before when the Devs didn't say anything about nerfing one thing or another. However, your point about them fixing the typo is very valid.

RIP PX, GMW, and the game that used to be fun.

Still playing for reasons unknown.

I am not asking about the stealth nerf. I am asking why ALL rewards have been removed
