Hi Crapgame,

Sounds like we should expand this topic. I’m setting up this sub-topic thread to continue this discussion in detail here to keep the parent thread on topic about Reboot Base Map Mechanic & Population.

Appreciate your feedback.

ANet currently has a Leaderboard website:
https://leaderboards.guildwars2.com

That isn’t the type of leader board I’m talking about. WvW has a ranking system although it is skewed by boosts and Edge of the Mist. Leader boards, for those familiar with DaOC, list all characters, guilds, and alliances and search capable. The main portal lists the top 25 players weekly to include alliances, guilds, and classes.

The leader board you listed is not very good if I must speak truthfully and has very little detail. My point is that Arena Net already has the data they just need to present it in ways that are meaningful and fun. What was linked or that most of us already know pales in comparison to other MMO or Player vs. Player games.

Edit: Note that leaderboards or ranks, if you want them to mean anything, must be pertinent to the format of play. They can’t be tainted by other maps and/or boosts. Example the Dragon Finisher. When you see it you know the person who did the finisher is rank 80 in sPvP. Could mean a grind, could mean they are good and/or above average. But you knew what it meant. Today when I see a silver or platinum enemy in WvW I just shrug it off since it doesn’t mean anything just like the abilities that are gained by them. Just a thought.
