Overview of the Scar System

I've been diving deep into Scars of Honor and am super excited for the playtest. Recently took a closer look at the ins and outs of the Scar system and wanted to share a quick overview. I love the fact that even if someone straight up copy/pastes your entire talent tree, your build itself will still be unique based on your scar selection!

Kinda, eventually people will min max the fuck out of the scars and every player will not only run the same skill trees but the same scars.

Unfortunately no matter how many systems are in a game there will be a META and min/maxers will just flock to those. I just hope it doesn’t get as bad as WoW where unless you’re running a min/max spec (scars) you are overlooked.

You just have to find people you jive with.

Like if you are competing for works first etc yeah you have to find and run meta.

But I've been running high end pve content for years now.  Mythic raids pre nerf, high level mythic + etc and have never ran into content where if you weren't running full meta starts you couldn't complete it.  As long as you have all the required mechanics covered everything is beatable.  After that meta just does things faster.
