they sure have ton of gold now with gold/glory exchange.
haha so true =P gotta keep this thread alive.
Any dev wanna mention if a rollback is happening or any form of punishment?
them getting to rank 50+ was unfair as it was but now there also being rewarded after ranks are removed?
Are we allowed to exploit freely in this game then? seeing as there is no punishment from prob the biggest pvp exploit in this game?
yeah def something to keep in mind on the next bug that comes around. especially since a-net won’t do anything about it.
yeah it’s always been a spell i run when i need condi removal.
i had a dev reply in another thread when i asked for a time frame, he said he couldn’t give one but it depends on the peoples feedback.
so i guess if enough people complain then they’ll give a decent amount of time for people to reach the finishers they want is my guess.
basically you’re on a time limit now to reach the finisher you want before they implement the new system.
yeah, i really hope they reconsider.
lmao sad, as if a-net even allows stuff like that and skyhammer farmers to happen.
“We have all of the numbers, we know exactly who is doing it and how many times they do it. I’m not going to say any more than that.”
roll them back then! sigh.
yeah i’d like to reach my next 10 ranks if possible, a time frame is really needed but i really hope they do not remove ranks in general.
also rollback the skyhammer farmers! >.<
i get what you’re saying forsaker but they can implement other stuff to improve the game, there is no reason to remove ranks unless there just trying to boost the population in tournys.
i however can’t even tourny due to my net disconnecting by how the rosters are formed.
tho i do only hotjoin, i still know how to tpvp. it doesn’t take a genius to figure that part out.
they should keep ranks in game in my opinion.
i guess they think people will start using tournaments more if they remove ranks, but if they gave the leaderboard some meaning to actually work your way up then people may use it more.
they should not remove ranks >.<
They took our land, they took our jobs!
Now they’re taking our ranks, kitten this kitten!
they took our ranks!!
be nice for a dev to reply =(
they ask for feedback, yet they delete any topics they don’t agree with, sigh.
agreed! ranks the only thing i really had in this game since i’m more a solo player and it was nice being higher rank then others due to the effort i put in.
all it needs is a rollback on the skyhammer farmers and the system is fine.
implement anything else you want but there is no need to remove ranks.
Pinned topic on rank removal was just deleted by moderator.
lol yeah sad >.<
yeah what others are saying, it’s a longterm goal.
feel i may as well start a new game if you take this away =(
would like time frame and skyhammer farmers to be punished via rollback.
if keeping rank is def out of the question, then i’d like —-
1.skyhammer farmers to finally be judged and rolled back.
2. a proper time to reach the finishers we want.
was hoping a dev would mention skyhammer farmers on the blog, so just gotta hope one pops into the forum =(
no reason to remove ranks =( kitten skyhammer farmers, they need rollback!
if you know “who and how much” they exploited, then i just am confused why you can’t rollback them. sure it was prob 70% of the pvp community but they had it coming when they decided to continue exploit.
roll them back >.<
exploiters should not be rewarded tho. it’s silly.
i like the ranks! it shows older players to the new and of course who are more experienced.
the only thing which ruined that is the Skyhammer farmers. just rollback the farmers, implement your new system and keep ranks in.
don’t understand why you need to change the system entirely to avoid rolling the cheaters back.
All this talk of rewards is meant to blindside us from the upcoming changes to pvp no? Totally gut the spvp ranking system but thats ok if we give the players new shiney’s. I think you might be missing the point devs. People here like ranks starting from 0 is just plain wrong.
Upcoming changes to glory? what do we spend our glory on before it gets scrapped? A better system would be to convert your glory into gold or gems based on the ratio of gold rewards in the new system.
While I agree pvp needs a massive overhaul you are screwing all the legitimate players who earned ranks and glory. Upcoming changes to the reward system is an excellent idea. Gold in place of glory another excellent idea. Your implementation of the new system though doesn’t seem right to me.
oh oh! this! couldn’t of said better myself =P
well they’ve already said that they know “who and how much have exploited it”
so clearly the information is there already.
still waiting for some dev answers on this one.
a-net would rather change the system completely instead of rolling them back. whose really in charge of this game >.<
sorry i am not the brightest person, more need it bluntly said =P so basically ranks will be removed after X amount of months? a ladder would go for what like 6 months?
just be nice to have a rough idea to know if can pull off another 10 ranks before there removed.
Why? Would you like us to hold off releasing these changes so you have more time?
I can’t give you a time frame because things are still being decided based on your feedback.
pretty much what above poster said, cept i’m doing 60-70 which is a longer time frame, i however would like more time because ranks were the only thing i could do in this game seeing as my internet disconnects whenever i even attempt to solo queue for some reason.
They could keep the changes to the reward system, but just not remove ranks and their finishers. Just have it as this little side progression thing, but not have it display anywhere except on your PvP menu and maybe keep the progress bar on the bottom. This way, you still get the cool new rewards, and yes glory is now gone, but rank points and the rank finishers will remain.
The finishers are not going away. You will likely have until the first ladder season to earn them. After that they can’t be earned, but you will continue to have them. If all you want is additional finishers to work toward, be sure to mention that in the rewards discussion.

a time frame would be nice when these are going to be implemented and also a rollback for the exploiters.

yeah personally the rank system was unique in my opinion, especially as i am a solo player so it felt more like something i could do by myself.
i hope they change there minds. no reason they can’t include ladder and keep ranks.
yeah i agree, seems this new system is due to the farmers, a-net should just man-up and roll them back.
yeah i liked ranks, now it’s just heading towards the same setup WoW has.
A-net encourages exploiters so there is no punishment.
rofl yeah this is pathetic =P
exploiters get rewarded big time.
hello =)
so my problem is whenever i select solo queue, my computer begins to spaz out, people begin to run in one spot temporarily or worse my computer simply disconnects (including internet).
if i make it into the solo queue game then my game will still just disconnect randomly mid game.
it only happens whenever i do anything solo queue related. any ideas? =(
hopefully some news on monday about skyhammer farmers =3
seeing as other post was deleted, any devs want to reply? =(
still awaiting a rollback.
1. Rollback/punishment on skyhammer exploiters
2. Pvp rewards.
3. Game Modes
Btw – Banning players is a simple solution, but not a preferable or sustainable one.
if can’t roll back the exploiters progression then i see banning as the only option.
We have more changes coming to further hinder this type of behavior.
how about punishing these abusers? even right now, there is a server up abusing it.
ban these scrubs or at least the one hosting the servers.
ban or take away all there progression they’ve done via this exploit. it’s unfair.
any other game would of punished them or even better they would of fixed this problem the second it went public.
“exploiting has been noticed, the action to prevent you being banned, we have removed your ranks and reverted you back to rank 10”
there go send that, let them keep there glory if they really want it but get rid of the ranks they gained.
personally i think the damage is done, speaking from experience from WoW this is basically win trading and they gave out bans and disabled/reset any progress the exploiters/offenders did.
but GW2 has left the blind eye to it for to long and people have grinded far to high via this skyhammer, if there is no punishment then fixing skyhammer won’t work. People have exploited for to long and will not want to go back to grinding the old way and will find new means of exploiting such as Node swapping like the previous exploiters were doing.
tl:dr – A-net needs to punish people or it won’t stop. Also shame on you A-net for letting this happen.
only people who aren’t against it are the ones exploiting it =P
and yeah i agree kirito, if they stop rank points on skyhammer then they’ll just move to whatever the next map with the biggest cliff to jump off.
known exploiters who do this a ton should be at least given a temp ban/warning to show that A-net is boss. (while they find a solution to fix this)
