Guild Wars 2

Hi guys, due to christmas i was not at my home for 2 weeks so i couldnt try anything during the “winter test ladder” the test ladder is now over, but i need objectives to keep playing the game so i’m actually playing on the current ladder, but the current situation is not clear at all.
when does this ladder reset for a new one?
nothing has been anounced yet but i guess no rewards will be given?
anyway i already got tons of mini-lamas.
changes were talking about teams facing more often teams, and discs having a 30sec immunity before it count for a loss. but nothing was said about the mmr or (classes mmr) changes, and it has to change since it’s pretty ridiculous. for what i have experienced the current ladder works with class mmr (number of games played) for exemple someone with 2k games as a thief will be matchmaked in priority with and against peoples around this number. and someone with 100 games on thief with and against peoples around this number. on paper it sounds good but in reality it opens many ways to abuse the ladder, new accounts or queue with low mmr friends = easy wins, gg anet for the great idea.
for the good of guildwars i really think the team queue ladder have to be back and ranking teams not players themselves like it is on wow or lol. solo queue is fun but for a game exclusively based on teamplay and wanting to be any competitive the team ladder is the best idea by far.
why the pvp titles have disapeared? it was pretty much the only “cool” objectives you could aim for.

Once they are ready.

but nothing was said about the mmr or (classes mmr) changes,

profession MMR mean you are going to have 16 different mmrs.
f.e. 1 MMR for unranked thief; 1 MMR for ranked ranger.
The idea behind it is, that you might not be able to play with every profession on the same level.
They are currently already gathering profession-mmr-data. The problem seems to be, how to adjust the individual MMRs when you change your profession during a match.

new accounts or queue with low mmr friends = easy wins, gg anet for the great idea.

Since the entry level (buying a new game) is high enough, this mentioned problem is in gw2 not so much of a big deal compared to f2p games.

Not to mention, that your mmr gets constantly adjusted, also a lot faster if you haven’t played games yet. This means, that even tho the first few games might be fairly easy for you IF you are a good player, but then the mmr has adjusted itself, and you would need a new account, or new low-mmr-friends again.

i don’t think i’m any good since i play since 3 month or so, but it happens that i have more than 2k ranked games played on the class i enjoy the most. the current scenario is
when i queue solo, i’m matchmaked against peoples around this number of games on their classes, if they are solo aswell it happen to be fun. these peoples are often “known” peoples very good with their classes and i have fun playing with and against since it’s challenging. it looks like the old solo queue after all.
sometimes they are premade and proceed to stomp us and this is more frustrating than fun.

i queue with begginer mates i have fun with since i’m trying to get them into pvp, and surprisingly we meet only begginers, not even r80 and it is pretty easy to chain win.

if i want to play the game and try to climb the ladder. guess which way would be the fastest one? if this ladder is a challenge at who can stomp begginers the most i’m ok with this it’s fun anyway but i don’t think that’s really what a ladder is made for.
