I have like 50 WHOLE hours of conan PvPee experience. And I am livid about the state of this game.
I was walking around minding my own business slaying newbs with my Yog’s Touch/Black Ice throwing axes and a couple of dudes with spears chased me down and they all started poking me, staggering me at extreme range, and then I died. Spears are dumb.
Too OP.
Well I learned from the experience and got a buddy, we grabbed some spears, and then we owned the exiled lands for a bit. But then. A dude on a horse with a spear and an axe came and ran us down and we couldn’t do anything about it with our spears. Horses are dumb.
Too OP.
So I trained a horse and I named it FallicSlaya. I grabbed a spear and I bled my enemies to death as they lamented in agony after I trampled them to the ground. And then I was famous for a while in my server. But then, some lone dude with a bow would NOT stay off my horse’s ■■■ and kept firing arrows and I could not do a THING about it. Bows are dumb.
Too OP.
So I got myself a real nice bow and started picking off these damn horsemen and everybody else who were foolish enough to oppose me. I started a saddle shop with all the horses I was SLAYING. But then, some newb with a Mistmourn shield showed up and was such a freaking coward with his shield up all the time, and my arrows would not freaking penetrate. Then he got close and kept killing me every single time with his stupid mace or 1-handed axe. Shields are dumb.
Too OP.
So I find myself an actual good shield unlike that newb’s Mistmourn and I start hunting those pesky bow user’s who were trying to copy my elite style. I rear up my Solspiel and I go to town showing the Exiled lands once again I am not to be messed with. BUT THEN some dude with a Katana shows up and kicks my shield down and does some stupid combo hit that basically kills me in 1 SHOT. WTF. Katanas are dumb.
Too OP.
Well I want to be a ninja too, and I could do it way better than those wannabes. So I go watch TheRampage’s video and learn how to be the best ninja. I then get so good that I beat TheRampage back to back while he is filming…but he said the footage had technical difficulties so he couldn’t show him losing…But THEN some dude with a Yog’s Touch and Black Ice throwing axes shows up and man handles my build, and then had the audacity to say ninja’s are dumb. Well I say 1-handed Axe’s and throwing axes are dumb.
Too OP.

TLDR: I think Conan PvP is in a really good place right now. I’m seeing sooo many different styles of combat and I wanted to applaud Funcom for their endless work and iterations.
