    What about crew training ? This affect a weapon more than perks do..it is why legendary weapon in event hit so hard when used by seal clubber..

    This is expecially an issue when it is an exp cannon or railgun when damage increase by 50% just from training the right skills..I don't think that is shown in gearscore?

    Q: Does gear score parameter factor in on Normal event or just Special events?

    Matchmaking based on level captain is better than this.

    First thing I looked at was my Small Shields:

    T5 Rare Small Shield - 1 Rare Perk - 783 HP - 644 Gear Score
    T4 Epic Small Shield - 3 Epic, 1 Rare Perk - 1395 HP - 752 Gear Score

    Common sense is if the Epic shield has 78% more HP, it would have 78% more Gear Score (1147), instead it's just 18% higher. Gear Score still has a along way to go.

    Is putting a F2P and a P2P player together fair just because they are the same Captain level?

    Which doesn't answer the vast discrepancy in my shields.

    I also have Big Shields:
    • Legendary Big sheild - 1254 HP - 573 Gear Score
    • Epic Big Shield - 2422 HP - 968 Gear Score
    HP delta is 93%, GS delta is 69%.

    Rare Big Torp - 2405 Damage - 746 GS
    Epic Big Torp - 1426 Damage - 392 GS

    Damage Delta 69%, GS Delta 90%.

    Maybe higher level items scale up gear score faster than their attributes? If so that could be an anti-Seal Clubbing measure, but if so, there are ways around it. Seems so much simpler to scale item attributes and Gear Score in lockstep.

    I'm expecting the MM won't improve BUT I am at least happy to know the devs are trying to improve and I believe it will, though it seems that we'll need to wait few more months..

    Of course it's more fair than lvl42 mk1 defender or enforcer with 3600 - 4300 infamy vs lvl8 mk1 shooter with 250 - 500 infamy.

    Does there still appear to be some glitches to iron out in gear score? Yes
    But will this solve the biggest cause of seal clubbing in events (ie removing perks)? Yes
    Will the adjusted scores give fair matches even when people use lower mark ships? It’ll be fairer than before. Previously perk scores were too much of an influence on gear score that we couldn’t see the impact training was having on POWER score.

    There is a British saying “the proof of the pudding is in the eating”. It means you won’t know how successful it’s been, until we’ve given it a go. Anyone saying it won’t stop the problems is just speculating.

    League lock-up during 1vs1 2vs2 events....
    so that the NM noobs using GS drop abuse is still being matched inside NML or AL.
    in this way sealclubbing is be avoided, no more NM vs Warrior on events..

    I disagree, because this would kill experimentation which is meant to be a major factor in events.
    If the amendments to gear score work as intended, it will fix the seal clubbing issue.
    Just give it a chance .
