It's always funny when one of my buddies get kickvotes for bringing a level 1 on gold. Then proceeds to carrying the whole team and topscoring by far. But I guess you never know with pugs. Well, yeah. Why would you expect stranger to take a leap of faith on your lv1 friend?

If reasonable APEX and carrying equipment, I'll run with it, otherwise no. Essentially: If they don't look like theyneedmoreguns they're good to go?

That doesn't mean they want to do the carrying instead. They don't know you. It's like I have a pool of graduate applicants and the student with a 2.8 GPA tells me to trust him to code a program over the 3.5+ student. I can be pleasantly surprised but if I'm just looking for quick and reliable, the lv1 isn't it. Most people just want to farm credits quickly. And the fact is if your friend were playing a lv10+ toon instead of the lv1 he still would have done it quicker than with the lv1 toon.

Must of the kits are good enough at level 1 once you gear up. Boosters + X gear + Snipe = easy peasy. Depending on the kit but i usually going to take a level 1-5 player with high apex over a level 20 500apex player who keeps on trying to vote kick someone who is probably going to be of more use than him level 1 or not.

a single or two APEX level 12000 level 4-7, I can deal with it if I use a level X level 20 character but when you see 3 APEX 300/500 level 3 human adept with Kett... I just quit and try to find another lobby... just to rematched to them every single try each time I chose a gold lobby.

Getting all the kits up to level 20 is already a slog even without playing on Bronze or Silver, so I've been taking my level 1 kits straight to Gold. I'm at 13K+ Apex and almost max rares, though, so like others have said, it's different than if I were someone from SP jumping into a gold Apex mission for the first time with an Avenger 1. I don't mind low-level kits in Gold as long as people look like they know what they're doing, but on the flip side I can't blame OP for not having confidence in low-level players.

I don't play a lvl 1 on gold, but I queued for a bronze match with my level 7 Adept and the host decided to change it to Silver. I wasn't paying attention. Couldn't figure out why I was taking so much damage on Bronze (didn't have my Barrier skill fully maxed yet- was working on it). Ended up going through all my medpaks and revives. Sad part? I still topped the scoreboard.

I play level 1's on Gold. At the very least I make sure it's a rank X character. My Apex rating is decent (6000+) so a lot of players will understand and not kick me.

Do they get no love? :amirite: Level 14 Angara Infiltrator with Vanquisher in a Bronze Twitch stream - now you're talking! well yesterday I decided to play the APEX mission bronze on paradox & Kett with my level 4 human infiltrator, the others were all over level 15, one level 20. I found out that after wave four they were dying all the time, had to solo the 3 uploads at wave 6... I never thought I could finish with a way better score than the three others, and hell they are high level in bronze common this should be easy as hell for you!!!

Pretty much this is why a level one is still fine. Passives and fitness matter more so than power ranks. Someone has good weapons, a decent apex, and boosters and they'll be fine most of the time. I'd rather have a level one with boosters and a decent weapon than a pug with the avenger and no boosters. High apex usually means they have good mods and character level cards. Booster mean they give a shit and will probably contribute.

I figure it's like 'pay it forward' or backward or something.
Sometimes I leech off @natinthehat with my level 1 scrubbiness on Gold, and sometimes I'm the one playing a level 19 on Gold and carrying some random other scrub.
It's the circle of life or something like that.

I've leveled 12 characters to 20, always starting out with a few Bronze matches to get to 6 or so, then a few Silvers to get to 12. Then maybe I'll go to gold. There are people playing bronze & silver & they appreciate the company! I understand there are some extra elite players that can top scoreboard (maybe solo?) gold with a level one character but I'm not one. For the rest, I don't know what the big deal is with not wanting to level a bit in bronze/silver? 'course Bioware built in incentives to try & cut corners/earn credits ASAP but, in long run will take FOREVER to max a manifest.

I find playing on anything less than gold a complete waste of time. If your Apex rating is above 5000 then there is nothing wrong with bringing a level 1 character to Gold. I have two interesting observations in this regard:
1) I tried to bring a level 1 to silver recently and was instantly booted from the lobby. Went to gold and had no issues. 2) I was recently in a lobby where someone brought a level 9 Asari adept, apex 12,000, and two others voted to boot him. I refused to kick him and said I bet the level 9 Asari outscores all of us. After receiving an earful the asari and I both left.

... If your Apex rating is above 5000 then there is nothing wrong with bringing a level 1 character to Gold. ... " I've got ~14K Apex but still wouldn't bring a level one to gold as I'd no doubt die too much (not being familiar with the kit, not having passive buffs, being a scrub, etc.) Wish there were leaderboards for number of revives -- I think I'd be at top (e.g., had 15+ revives in one gold match today -- & we extracted!) Reviving's a top priority for me but I'd be happier with many fewer.

dunno, I got a lvl1 today inn the random lobby and on a first look it seems legit: weapons/ boost/ apex.
Yes she was last, but was not a drag at all.
If a find to many 300/400 apex in a gold lobby not preset to outlaw/ zero, I leave.
