Is Conflict skill based?

[DoubleCore]

I own the game on Ubisoft Connect and I never actually played the game.
Recently I started playing and I reached level 30 already.

To spice things up, I tried Conflict for the first time - got annihilated so fast I couldn't even understand what's happening.

Are my opponents around my skill level? because it doesn't seem so.
I see no logic in matchmaking me (Level 30, World rank 1) with someone level 5000+ that already has some insane gear.

Am I missing something? or am I just a complete noob

You will be put with lvl 30s but their wiping you cause their using PVP builds and gear score is max (515). Builds that kick butt in PVE are worthless in PVP which conflict is.
Same with lvl 40s and on a side note after shd 1000 the watch is fully upgraded with all the 10% upgrades.(no gear scores for lvl40s)

Conflict is hit or miss. It can be fun, but from my experience, most games I play are players using the cheesiest builds just to win.

The current cheese factory is people using full shield with LVL 6 arty turrent.

Conflict would be a lot of fun if the community had a sense of standards are not using cheap builds.

I haven't done conflict yet, what do u mean by "full shield" - the striker?
