Guild Wars 2

openned world of structered pvp for myself – pretty fun, i must say! and i’m looking forward to gain rank!

Buuuuut… i’ve seen custom games that say “rank farm” – is that even legal?!?!

no one cares about “rank farm” cause rank is easy to gain and has nothing to say about skill or anything

but still!
what about fairplay?!

Ranks are meaningless.

Rank farmer misses all the fun and chances to improve. Really sad.

The 1-80 “rank” is meaningless, at least in this implementation. Do not confuse it for a leaderboard or ladder rank which ranks players in relation to other players. It is more like an xp grind for PvP.

Rank farm servers are illegal, TheLordHelseth, Sizer and even Rom went into jail for it.

Lol

yeah its all for those finishers and reward track loots. aint nobody care bout ranks.

Ranks are meaningless.

and why there are ranks, then O_o ?

there are 3 types of games – custom \ unranked \ ranked – what’s the difference?!

because Rank used to mean something, they had skins locked with ranks, and rank was harder to obtain, now it is meaningless and all of that was removed.

custom is… well I don’t know, I see it as the shabby place to test builds and stuff, not good usually .
Unranked is where you want to play mostly for fun be still be serious about it
Ranked is where the win/loss ratio and points goes to leaderboard

Ranks they’re talking about has no impact on MMR, so it really means nothing except extra finishers. The only rank that matters, which they can’t farm, is from Ranker Matches, so let the farmers do what they want.
