I want to raise an important point about the upcoming PvP cross-realm system.

If cross-realm matchmaking is good for levels 31–34, then it should also be available for every other arena bracket, especially levels 6–30.

The purpose of an arena is to compete against players in your level range, improve your skills, earn Imperial Points, climb the ranking and work toward arena gear. These systems exist for a reason. But none of that matters if players cannot find enough opponents to actually play.

The lower-level arenas need cross-realm matchmaking just as much, if not more, than the higher-level arenas. Bringing players from all realms together would create more active arenas, more competition, more challenges and a much healthier PvP environment.

And there is another important point: every high-level player was once a low-level player.

We should never forget where the game started and where we all came from. Low-level players are not irrelevant. They are the future of the game and the future high-level PvP community.

A stronger cross-realm system across ALL arena brackets would benefit everyone: players get more PvP, more competition and better matchmaking, while the developers benefit from a more active and engaging game.

Please don’t build a cross-realm system that only benefits the top level brackets. Make it available to everyone. Keep every arena alive.

There’s a reason low-level arena gear and PvP rankings exist. Low-level PvP is part of the game too. Think about it, bro. Give every arena bracket cross-realm matchmaking.

I want to address the critical issue of long queue times in lower-level PvP brackets.

Limiting cross-realm matchmaking exclusively to levels 31–34 leaves all lower brackets completely neglected. Many players who enjoy PvP at levels 6–30 end up sitting in queue for hours just to get a single match.

When new or mid-level players can't find PvP matches, they lose interest and quit before even reaching end-game. Cross-realm for all brackets is not just a quality-of-life feature—it is essential for keeping the game’s player base active and engaged across all levels.

Thank you all for your interest in new cross-realm tournament!

However, we intended it to be for higher lvl characters. It is not an extension to the Arena, but a new competitive mode for the most experienced players, a new end-game challenge.

I can only suggest getting that lvl 31, and trying everything the cross-realm tournament could offer

I understand that the Cross-Realm Tournament is intended as a new end-game mode. However, that is exactly why I believe the lower-level arenas urgently need cross-realm matchmaking too.

The level 6–30 arenas need more activity, more opponents, and more competition. There is already arena equipment, rankings, and Imperial Points for these levels, so this content clearly matters.

Cross-realm matchmaking for low-level arenas would not take anything away from the end-game tournament. It would simply bring life back to PvP brackets that are struggling with activity.

Please consider giving levels 6–30 their own cross-realm matchmaking system. We were all low-level players once, and keeping these arenas alive is important for the future of the game. ⚔️

First of all, all levels should be included in the Cross Realm Arena update. There are fewer players and less demand at lower levels, so the low-level brackets need more attention to keep the game alive and active.

Second, for high-level players, even if the Cross Realm Arena is not added to their bracket, it would still be fine because they can easily find a queue due to the larger player base. Unlike at lower levels, where the community is already inactive and it is difficult to find opponents.

That’s why I believe all levels should have access to the Cross Realm Arena. This would help keep every level bracket active and give more players a reason to continue playing the game.

Currently we have no plans for it.

Playing on low-lvl only is a choice, let's be clear about that. The game moves forward, introducing new content every year. Progressing is being rewarded with more activities, more people to play with, more fun ways to spend time. And if you want to stay at certain level, fine.

But there always will be more things to enjoy as your character progresses

The only thing I can take from your response is that you’re not understanding my point. This game should not only focus on endgame players, but on everyone.

Low-level players deserve active PvP too, and cross-realm matchmaking would make the entire game more alive. Even many endgame players would create low-level characters if the arenas were active.

It’s simply sad and disrespectful to see loyal players being treated as if they don’t matter. Please listen to your community and think about it….

whether it is an extension to the arena or not, it is also good to implement it on the lower level pvp system as there is also an endgame character on lower level. our point is lets make this game enjoyable on all levels, make use of all levels instead of it just being a boring filler until you get to the max level. the new player really has a lot to catch up in this game before we got into max level and somewhere along the starting until the max level is really just worthless to play, the maps are empty the arenas are empty, there is no appeal in starting the game as a newer player which is why the player base is declining.

"There will be more things to enjoy" the maps are dead, the bots are filling the starting map to make it look lively, we have noticed everything. this game need to start developing a content for its early player base too as it is the most important thing to get the new player hooked. lets be real, what kind of thing do you think will get new player hooked to this game? the drops are a literal trash, no value whatsoever whether it is from dungeons, mini bosses, nothing worth the grind. from starting map to irselnort is basically dying, no people, no interaction. i get that there is some endgame feature that the developers want to introduce but doing it like this is not the way.

Respectfully, Admin, we understand that there are considerations when it comes to the Cross Realm Arena, but we would like to explain why we believe the lower levels should also be included.

Our main goal is simply to make the game more exciting, competitive, and enjoyable. Many of us want to explore the lower levels to see who is the strongest in each level bracket, which builds are the most effective, and which item combinations could become the meta at those levels.

Right now, it is harder to enjoy the lower levels because the community is smaller and finding opponents can take a long time. If the lower levels were also included in the Cross Realm Arena, players would have more opportunities to PvP, test different builds, and create their own competitive environment.

We are not asking for the entire system to be changed. We simply hope that lower-level players can also be given the chance to experience the Cross Realm Arena. It could help make the community more active and give players more reasons to keep playing and investing their time in the lower levels.

We hope you can consider this suggestion. This is not only for the current players, but also for future players who want to enjoy the game and explore different levels and playstyles. 🙏

not only for those who wanna stay at certain level, but also the thing who will get new player hooked. back in 2012 many people are hunting minibosses starting from maraksha/sea monster all the way to berengar guard, because even the level 12 and 13 weapon still has its worth!!!, thats what make Warspear once the best MMO of the year. now what? no one is hooked, no content on low levels except of it being a filler. all mini bosses drop has no value in gold, no value in everything eversince the craft system is introduced!!!. back then people even doing astral labyrinth now what? so many potential wasted, developers keep adding new content instead makin an everlasting usable feature that still relevant even if new levels is out.

There are many low level arena players in every serve.We don't have high level charactes for join raid,gvg etc so it is kinda unfair already.Since there are arena for lvl6-lvl30,GAME SHOULD ALSO BRING CROSS-REALM ARENA FOR LEVEL6-LEVEL30.

None of disrespect but all ur words are telling me that you guys are too lazy to build a cross realm arena for low level peoples since there are no benefit to earn.

Few years ago low level arena are fun but in my serve but now is nothing but ghost.People leaving low level since you guys never put any new content to lvl6-lvl30 whatever pvp or pve.

Lemme give u an advice just delete arena lvl6-lvl30 since u think we should go higher level for enjoy cross realm arena.

As you said,the game moves forward,and you guys give 0 care to lvl6-lvl30 people who doesn't wanna up level.

I like that idea, the low level arena cult that controls the rankings and sells spots, accounts, and bots is going to disappear

We have no plans to support low-level Arenas. This feature is a legacy system from the past. Instead, we are focusing all our resources on high-level content. This is where the vast majority of the player base spends their time, which is standard for any MMORPG.

However, we will continue to improve the leveling process itself. Our goal is to help players reach the maximum level as smoothly as possible. A larger pool of max-level players directly improves the matchmaking system.

Cross-realm tournament features like cross-server play and scheduled registration windows serve this exact purpose. When more players join the queue at the same time, matchmaking becomes much better. This significantly cuts down queue times and prevents match manipulation or win-trading.

I disagree with this decision. This isn't just about it being a "legacy system" or holding onto how the game used to be in the past. Gameplay has changed—now, even low-level characters have access to branch talents.

Because of new features like this, low-level PvP has developed its own unique meta and massive potential that is genuinely fun to play. Just because a character isn't at max level yet doesn't mean the player shouldn't be able to enjoy the Arena. Stripping support from low-level Arenas completely removes the opportunity for players to test out, maximize, and enjoy these new mechanics and talents as they progress. The overall gameplay experience should be valued at every stage of progression, not exclusively at the end-game.

this is not strictly to low level arena, i myself currently playing on max lvl (34) but there is currently nearly no new player entering the game. it is either a smurf account, or account for botting daily events or pelion quest to sell gold. this game get me and my friend hooked back in 2009 and rejoined in 2011 because we didn't feel "left behind" with so much stuff to catch on. Starting map is full of lifes, irselnort is full of life because there is worth in those maps. but now? what makes the game interisting? it is too deep entering the pay to win era, to amplify, to spam dungeons, to win gvgs, talents etc. "the standad for any MMORPG" you just said is what make them die, look for any MMORPG that are using that standart... what happened to them? the high level actually already have many contents to keep its player base stable but well all old player eventually will leave because thats just how it is. the problem comes when the older player left but there is no new player to fill that gap!! please hear the community suggestion and make sure all of the maps as well as levels is relevant to the game and not only just a filler. it only take one press to start a game, but to continue you need them to love it enough to waste their time playing it, and i dont see that happening nowadays.

i think the devs are looking at the wrong goal, no matter what kind of help this game offered to help the new player reach max level won't matter if those new player doesn't even feel the shred of love for this game. they will play for like 1 to 7 days after that they left because they gain nothing by playing, all their effort is insignificant, there is no joy from getting items on dungeon or minibosses, there is no friends to play with except the usual scenery of bots in every starting maps.

On the Tourmaline server, practically the entire league is rigged. I've seen the prices: you just need a certain amount of money and a certain amount of tickets. They use bots and AFK accounts to climb the rankings, allowing them to secure the exact same amount of entries and wins.

In the other arena modes, there isn't as much manipulation, but you often see bots programmed to cast a skill every few seconds to avoid detection and this happens across all arena levels. There is also that weird buying and selling of low-level arena accounts, but at this point, that's just business as usual in Warspear.

This things will be hard to do in a cross realm pvp. So there shouldnt be any issue about it

Long story short: the developers clearly don’t understand their own game or the problems their players are facing. Ignoring an entire part of the PvP community and calling it a “legacy system” is arrogant and disrespectful. It’s honestly pathetic to see developers so disconnected from their own players. Keep ignoring the problems and pushing everyone toward endgame, and don’t be surprised when the game slowly dies.

Like it or not, you guys are a minority. Considering the developers have a small team, spending time and resources on expanding or improving the low-level arena simply makes no sense. It’s selfish of you who for some reason decided to stay stuck in old, low-level content knowing you'll probably never enjoy an update to demand that the devs pause their plans for high-level content (where most players are) just because you feel forgotten. Hm I wonder why that could be?

Not just about minority low level player. But also new player who just get into the game. They hop on, they saw no one (except bots), nothing to do that has worth to the actual game that makes almost all activity below 31 become a useless filler. You see maintaining a game is not always about maintaining the majority. But how to increase player, how do you expect new players to enjoy the game when all low level things are useless?

It is never selfish to care about the game. The game is losing most of the player base since devs forget that low level need their utmost care.

It's already dying. A lot of new game are out or soon coming out. The player base is going to drastically drop. I tried to come back, but every "new" content is a DLC.
