So I confess that so far I am a PvP enthusiast. But today I received whispers from a witch who was very upset because I killed them. They explain that they don't like PvP and just want to farm cosmetics peacefully. I informed them that it was a PvP game mode, but this is actually the third time someone has complained to me in-game about being PvP in the PvP area.
I realized that nothing, not even PvP, can stop players from equipping their cosmetics. So I thought I'd give some quick advice for PvP haters who still want to grind 80-100k red dust to make their ponies look good:
- Expectations are very high. Higher level mobs not only drop more seeds, but the level 10+ advantage will be hard for any opponent to overcome. (As a rule of thumb, you'll usually be up against players with +-10 levels of Basestone for that level).
- Gather together if you can and stay together. AOE overlap is difficult for enemies to penetrate and easy to do. With that said, don't get too confident in a team, as even single players can still knock out a group.
- Running away is usually a good option. Unstoppable moves are especially valuable because they allow you to escape crowd control (crowd control is king in PvP). Even if you can't run away completely, surviving your opponent's early cooldown can give you the extra time needed to finish your seed hoard.
- Always spam the health pot during PvP matches. They have a high drop rate especially in the PvP area. Can also use them.
- Expect to die and lose 10,000 seeds. People aren't picking you, they're playing whatever game mode you've chosen to play as intended.
Instead of getting discouraged, try to see what other players are doing and how well certain builds work in PvP vs PvE. You might learn something new about the mechanics of the game or, god forbid, have fun.
Diplomatic tone is appreciated for this. While I'm not a pvp fan in particular, I expect that in the pvp arena (that's the point, after all). I will add a few more tips for those who want to plant seeds for cosmetics.
First, turn them to dust when you reach about 1000. Once they've turned to dust, you won't lose them. Regular "dusting" will help prevent major losses.
Second, don't be afraid to be "marked" to open chests in the pvp area. They can hold around 800-1000 seeds in a chest and sometimes have a few locations near the ritual (they don't always spawn in the same places).
If you want to win more pvp or pve, make yourself more stronger you need a lot of Diablo 4 Gold or D4 Items, MMOexp provide also Diablo IV Boosting service.
