I found this on our guild site. I will use this for reference over the next week of testing. My initial thoughts (and many agree) are that these prices are set too high, but I will need a bit of experimentation to confirm.

Earning medallions (tier dependent):

  • Killing players

  • Taking keeps

  • Locking zones

  • Taking forts

  • Repeatable RvR quests


Earning crests:

  • Killing players (starting at RR41, RR51, and RR61 for each tier)

  • Fortress defense

  • City PQs


RVR set gear price list:

Decimator Boots - 15 Recruit Medallions
Decimator Chest - 50 Recruit Medallions

Obliterator Boots - 50 Scout Medallions
Obliterator Gloves - 50 Scout Medallions
Obliterator Chest - 125 Scout Medallions

Devastator Boots - 65 Soldier Medallions
Devastator Gloves - 65 Soldier Medallions
Devastator Shoulders - 135 Soldier Medallions
Devastator Helm - 135 Soldier Medallions
Devastator Chest - 165 Soldier Medallions

Annihilator Boots - 225 Officer Medallions
Annihilator Gloves - 225 Officer Medallions
Annihilator Shoulders - 250 Officer Medallions
Annihilator Helm - 250 Officer Medallions
Annihilator Chest - 350 Officer Medallions

Conquerors Belt - 15 Conqueror crests and 375 officer Medallions
Conquerors Boots - 20 Conqueror crests and 400 officer Medallions
Conquerors Gloves - 20 Conqueror crests and 400 officer Medallions
Conquerors Shoulders - 20 Conqueror crests and 475 officer Medallions
Conquerors Helm - 20 Conqueror crests and 475 officer Medallions
Conquerors Chest - 30 Conqueror crests and 500 officer Medallions

Invader Belt - 3 Invader crests and 375 officer Medallions
Invader Boots - 5 Invader crests and 400 officer Medallions
Invader Gloves - 5 Invader crests and 400 officer Medallions
Invader Shoulders - 9 Invader crests and 475 officer Medallions
Invader Helm - 9 Invader crests and 475 officer Medallions
Invader Chest - 11 Invader crests and 500 officer Medallions

Warlord Jewelry - 4 Warlord crests and 375 officer Medallions
Warlord Belt - 4 Warlord crests and 375 officer Medallions
Warlord Boots - 6 Warlord crests and 400 officer Medallions
Warlord Gloves - 6 Warlord crests and 400 officer Medallions

Sovereign Jewelry - 10 Royal crests and 375 officer Medallion
Sovereign Gloves - 10 Royal crests and 475 officer Medallion

Also you can break crests down to lower crests/medallions.

1 Royal crest = 5 Warlord Crests = 25 Invader crests = 125 Conqueror crests = 625 Officer medallions

You can upgrade lower level medallions into upper level medallions.
5 Recruit = 1 Scout
5 Scout = 1 Soldier
5 Solider = 1 Officer

Just found out you can break 1 Officer Medallion into 125 Recruit Medallions. So the lower level stuff will be easy to get. My tome unlocks are happy!

Having the WAR client CTD 4 times.

Having Altdorf crash 3 times.

The new city siege queue system (if people aren't there to defend, the city should fall - don't prevent all the extra attackers from starting instances). You added zone domination to prevent the losing side from defending by not defending. Why the hell would you allow it in a city?

Making it so only WB leaders can initiate the instance and if anyone else does it, your warband gets put into different instances.

Having to reset the entire campaign manually because crap was broken.

Being booted to the character select screen about ten times.

Having about 8-10 FPS in a city.

Having your commands lag by 3-4 seconds each time.

The official forum being broken so that we can't even report what is wrong with your game.

Actually thinking you could play WAR on a patch day.

On the plus side, at least the cast bar lag issue seems fixed.

On the minus side, I was a moron for wasting 3+ hours for that bullshit.

How about a few conqueror medallions for all the wasted time? Thanks.

I can't even count how many people I heard cursing Mythic during my login session. Our entire alliance WB was bashing them and region chat was full of it. Want to regain some of the hordes of people you lost after launch? Make it so your MMO isn't a buggy piece of trash. I mean, I realize it's patch day... but how many get out of jail free cards do you guys expect? Aren't you supposed to be professionals with years of experience? Didn't EA give you $60+M? Jeez. This isn't any way to entice any new players to start, let alone bring anyone back who quit.

Epic rant brought to you by Jergins hand lotion. That's about the only action I got during last night's epic failure.

So tempted to delete all this because it's not even worth the effort... but my blood is boiling right now.
