Guild Wars 2

ok heard all this before, is there anything being done about the constant afkers in this mode?

is beginning to be a drain if im honest and is ruining the game, not just for myself but for lots of others too….

and what about the match up system? matching rank 1 with rank 50 seems hardly fair…

This kind of has to do with MMR, and how difficult it is to gauge accurately when everyone’s playing on 5-person teams. If I win about 4-5 games, regardless of whether I’m getting carried or the other way around, I suddenly get placed in matches with Marauders and super high ranks. And then if I lose a couple games, regardless of whether my teammates were bad or I was bad, I get placed in matches where people are mid-rank.

So you can get very inexperienced players who got carried by good teammates having extremely high MMR. They’re not always a liability – my average rank 30-40 team the other day had a rank 1 ranger and we still won by over 100 points.

Yeah, unless you are running with 4 other people who you KNOW and are in contact with on comms then chance plays a large part in arenas.

They try to average teams, but your rank 50 might still suck, their rank 1 might be a natural. Take it in yr stride
