    Kicked from group again ffs

    214 GS. Kicked in underground again. All I do is challenging and I go down a LOT less than 250+ GS. I wish people would stop thinking GS is everything. I cannot WAIT until the max GS is dropped.

    214 GS
    200dps
    370tough
    14skill
    2 piece fm
    4 piece reclaimer

    The Dark Side of Gear Score...
    This can't be avoided. Elitists will always exist.

    And it will still exist in 1.4. It is just that you will get kicked for being GS226 instead of 229... Or not, depending on how good they made the balancing of World Tiers.
    But at least you won't get kicked for wearing a mix of High End and Gear Sets (like it happen to me quite a few times. Too bad, you won't take advantage of my AWESOME Optimized Alpha Bridge setup...).

    The GS rating is a sad joke. So many 250+ people that have maxed their GS with random pieces that simply don't fit together at all.

    A 214gs reclaimer specialist is worth any 255 IMO

    problem is, you can't give the masses a simple number like this to latch on to, because the details of the equipment are more than they can process, they just determine everything by the Gear Score.

    So true. There are a lot of times i find myself reviving 250+GS players consistently, while my 235GS toon just keeps motoring along...

    The 235 was built with survival in mind though, with 3 FM and maxed stamina recalibrations.
    You have to make what you have work, and not worry about the GS so much.

    To the OP: If you're on PS4, your welcome to send me a friend request. I don't kick based on GS.

    Ya and obviously not about gear score, gear score helps but its 50/50. 50% gear score, 50% strategy. The great thing is when you get randomized in a group that knows how to play as a group. For example "Destroy the Supplies" at the last round when you have about 1 minute to destroy the supplies, I pop alt run, destroy the skill jammer, then kill the supplies. I run back to my group and when i'm running back, someone shoots a heal at me. Its like true love, i'm pretty sure that's what true love feels like. But that's teamwork. And its a good feeling.

    It's nice when you get matched with good team players. When everybody has everyone else's back, it's so much smoother.
    Those are the groups I'll stay and run a string of missions with. Other groups, maybe just one or two.

    I had a guy run in a pug with a gs of around 190, we did a challenge run and he went down once.
    Last night I joined a 3 phase hard mode run and got kicked with a gear score of 239, I did get mad on that occasion lol.

    I never judge on gear score, I have always said I don't care what they have on, they are only as good as there aim..

    I do believe with the changes, we may see more tolerance with pugs
