It's not just in this game, almost every MMO I've played in the last couple of years always had high level characters making new character sin that zone struggle to finish quests and special encounters. I am pretty much a GW2 noob. I had several 60ish level characters a while back but came back to the game just this last week and decided to start over so I created a new character and deleted all my old ones.
Now I am going through starting zones and have several times encountered extremely high leveled players just tearing up the zone killing everything in one shot leaving nothing for new character to do, including the special event encounters where there is no time to engage and be a part of the event to get the rewards, not to mention how boring the event is anyways even with rewards because it ends almost instantly with these selfish players just dropping them so quickly. And they are EVERYWHERE almost all the time. While I've seen this in other games like WoW, ESO, and others it's the most egregious and disruptive in this game.
It doesn't help that most of these arrogant, selfish players are not in the least apologetic. Why is this behavior allowed? Why aren't these super high leveled characters banned from starting areas, or at least unable to interfere with new players? They're stealing all the fun out of the early stages.
