Hello I just want to clear things up about twinking. Firstly let me start by saying I have been twinking since minute 1 of the pvp update so dont call me a noob, but I will not give biased statements.
Twinking should and WILL always be a part of AL, its in a lot of mmos. There are some people who feel that twinking requires no skill, my response is that it does require skill - heck even logging on takes skill. If pvp on a L21 is considered skillful, why shouldnt L16/10 pvp, considering it has the same skill points (I mean character skills IE. Fireball), be considered skillful? I say it requires more Brians because skill points are limited on a twink.
Then people say you are just killing newbies. Firstly this happens in Endgame as well, 6/10 times I enter an arena I get paired up with L20s.
There is also comments that say that twinks have the best gear (you dont say! Thats what twink means) at their level and it gives them an advantage over newcomers because elite L15/16 gear is discontinued now. My response: It does give them a small advantage BUT there are lots of bundles that can be brought for twinks - if someone wasnt around at the 16 cap, they can purchase a bundle which has sub-par gear. Secondly, it would be no fun if everyone had the same elite loadout, thats why sts introduced watcher gear for under L20's.
Finally dont hate, appreciate! Seriously, devs INTENDED for twinking to take place in pvp. They couldve wrote when a low level tried to enter arena "you have to be level 20 or above to enter the arena" (like in elites). I really encourage people to try out twinking
Cheers!
