With the new update, we're being introduced to a system with revamped statistics. Sts has announced the rework of Hit %, damage, crit, and what most players seem to have anticipated, the Dodge mechanic. With this, the new PvP pace is faster, bolder, and wayyy different from our old fun! Here's some tips to help you with the revamped PvP system of PL!

-Birds:
With dodge being nerfed, some people tend to recommend to stray away from playing bird at the lower levels. However, this is not the case. Bird is actually wayyy stronger than before with the newly added damage buff. Why? 1- Birds have noooo problem with the new hit % nerfs, as for their Focus mends the hit % you may be missing. 2- Birds have debuffs that critically shred their enemies' hit % and armor! You thought you already had too low of a hit % and armor rating? So there it is, PL roamers, don't be too shy to pop that avian out of the dust and completely destroy!

-Rings?
Sts has unlocked our imaginations with allowing all items to be traded and stashed. With that being said, any level is being able to access rings previously only available to higher levels. It is understandable that alot of you are going to be on a budget build for your PvP setup, so I could see you guys lurking towards 2pc rings and the regular 3pc rings. However, these rings do not provide any reasonable boost when compared to the crafted 3pc rings. For those of you on a budget PvP build, I highly HIGHLY suggest you buy a crafted ring, with the Red 3pc crafted ring being the absolute best for PvP. You can see the statistics difference between a Red 3pc and a regular 3pc here.

Well, to tell you, the Black crafted ring is absolute ********. No lie at all. To get a Black 3pc crafted ring, you upping your budget on a 3pc ring by what seems to be 15m+ and what you're getting out of it is merely a whopping... well, just look at the statistics difference between a Red 3pc crafted ring and a Black 3pc crafted ring here.

-Healing Nerfs?
As Sts mentioned in the update log, Mages are recieving a what seems to be nerf to their healing. Many of you may question this to the ability of mages in PvP. However, in conclusion, the heal nerf is only marginally different from now to then. The heal nerf applies to higher level PvP, and does not sustain a strong effect on low levels, so all should be fine.

-PvP Pace
The pace of PvP, through all of these changes and tweaks garnered together, results in a more fast paced nuke orientation PvP system. No longer are you going to play as if you are going to dodge as much as possible and dish out as much damage as you can. This can be an up and down for PvP. As we learn more about the new system, it could either go two ways for low level PvP. We're talking about nuke builds resulting in 1 shots without a what seems as counterplay. Or it could go to a system we could all enjoy without it heavily slouching on luck based wins.

So, that pretty much sums how the updates will affect the PvP system in lower levels. Since this is the first day, we don't know much about it. Players, look forward to the upcoming weeks. I hope you have a nice time out there in the Arenas!
