Regular players cannot win with random PuGs which make all competition impossible and thus all the fun out of PVPing. You want us regulars to stick around then you will have to do something about the random PuGs. There is absolutely no enjoyment in entering a warfront and having a team repeatedly run you over simply because my teammates have some mental handicap and chase tanks into enemy raids.
I personally do not get random PuGs. 'No real skill required...just make sure you're in dungeon gear and can tunnel marked players. Don't worry you wont be any less useful if you die, you can't attack anyone properly anyway! wahooo!' Seriously? Thats fun?
I much prefer actually fighting and winning because I am a better player or losing when I am not (which is never).
As for those of you that are apart of the random queue, enjoy it now because I'm sure I am not the only regular pvper that isnt going to stick around much longer if this doesn't get fixed. Who are you going to get rolled by when there aren't any of us left? You will ruin it for yourselves as well.
Perhaps adjusting the queue to where when a random group can only fight against another random group and if there are none available, too bad... queue in a premade or duo like everyone else does! That way they can still random queue if another is available or if not, its still fair for EVERYONE else.
Thats my 2 cents for what its worth..though I do hope its at least worth enough to get this issue resolved for us all.
I do love Rift and would hate to have to move on.
