There were a few individuals who hit Diamond Legend already like Dark Jean. Most players old players are problably around gold and platinum tho.

This, haha.

It’s true though; in the time I spent in there levelling alts up and farming karma for obby shards for more asc stuff you reap in all the wvw ranks, even if you don’t want them. WvW ranks mean absolutely nothing.

It’s not uncommon to see diamond prefixes. Mostly see them in big blob fests or organized GvG skirmishes. Though I wouldn’t be surprised if many have left the game due to the plethora of balance issues… slow update/progress for WvW game mode. I don’t blame them.

EoTM and boosts sort of ruined any form of rank meaning.

Investment of time and boosts. Nothing else.

There was somebody that maxed it out like a year or two ago… a guard farming EOTM with staff if I remember correctly.

do you lurk around the forums just to reply to threads like these?

Well, when it pertains to one’s self it’s easy to plug it.

Also lol@salt in that thread

There are lots of people with the maximum rank (10,000). I’ve personally spoken to 5 of them, 2 being on EU, the other 3 being on NA.

While it’s true that many of them got the bulk of their ranks in EOTM, it’s not true for everyone. I’ve spent my share of time there but I have no doubt in my mind that most of my ranks came from “real” WvW and I’m now in the 7,000 range.

Diamond ranks are obviously the most uncommon but usually in higher tiers, they’re not so rare they’re like unicorns. All it is is a passion for WvW for most of us. Some of them are driven for the title so they zerg day in and day out while others, like myself, are just WvW bums who do little else in GW2 besides living in EBG and the Borderlands.

Someone on my server is max rank and has been for quite a long time. How long I’m not sure as I’m not close friends with them but reaching the max wasn’t recent for them I know that much. And I’m pretty sure they’re tired of zerging because I almost never see this person with a zerg. They’re always roaming solo or with a couple friends.

WvW rank, as someone else has stated, means nothing. Some high ranks are zerglings and do nothing but blob while others (and I can think of more than a few) despite being very high ranks, are primarily roamers or small group players. When you don’t do anything else in GW2, your ranks will add up pretty rapidly. I usually go up 250 every month and a half/two months. I would probably be 10,000 by now if I didn’t scout and roam so much but that’s not a goal for me. To be honest I’m both proud of and ashamed by my rank at the same time, lol.

Just remember that everyone’s different! High rank doesn’t always mean zergling and low rank doesn’t always mean noob. “Always assume your opponent is a genius until proven an idiot.”

HONEYMOON is the highest ranked i’m pretty sure.

from my experience, the tier of the server the player plays on has more to do with wxp than what he does. I usually just hop onto any action around, being it a zerg fight, small fight or roaming and occasional chat with an enemy player. Althought it’s not as much true with server linking now, before roaming in gold tier would be just as good in terms of wxp if not better than zerging in T9.

If they are higher than Mithril they are primarily zerglings or EotM Karma farmers from way back. It is nearly impossible to get a very high rank and fight primarily small scale even with a BDay gift.

Typically if I see something over Mithril, it is typically a soft target in the open.
