PvPers frown upon the use of Gloat, so most of the high level ones won't waste points on honor/gloat.

Levelers have no use for it so allocate points elsewhere for more efficient buff usage.

go to the online player list and work your way through the list starting at the end (most recent activity). You should be able to find someone on most occasions. Just keep looking.

"Real PvPer's dont need no Gloat!" straight outta stangvalle's bio...and ask any TRUE pvp player and they will tell you the same...HCS should do away with gloat when they update the pvp ladder system or this buff will be abused to gain ratings thru less than true pvp methods

or at least tone it down a little.

At lv 175 it increases PVP Rating by 87.5% which, in my opinion, is way to much.

I think gloat and honer were horrid additions to the game and took away heavily to what little meaning rating had.

BUT

Given the time its been out,if it was toned down or changed, the high levels who have assigned points to it would complain, and rightfully so, since it would be a bait and switch on the cows part(never good)

So, my idea on how to counteract their use is to either increase xp loss when using gloat and honer OR when th new buffs are released at 1000, have a buff that increases xp loss vs those using gloat or honer(even more if they are using both. Such substantial gains that leave room for such abuse should also leave room for higher risk, as is the general theme in pvp ;

yea that would be an awesome addition at 1000. Bring back risk

I' for one am all for Gloat. I wish more of ya used it. Keeps the BB fresh with new targets. ;) If I find a seller I will personally post them here, with permission of course, so anyone who needs it knows where to look. No need to thank me. I enjoy helping others.

Removing the ability to Bounty a PvP Ladder attack is something I've been thinking about. If enough people want it, I don't see why not. It might be a relatively easy tweak, unlike the rest of the suggestions.
