Why AP for the top 250 titles is not cool

Pinkunicorn of Dethecus.3217:
The way that Anet has historically used AP are not for limited-pool awards. When they did the WvW seasons, they didn’t have the servers get bonus AP, they just gave them a prestige finisher, and that was enough.

Whether one is able to accomplish taking 1st and getting all the AP doesn’t mean that’s how they should award them. Especially, as has been noted in several threads already, one’s MMR can be vastly different from another’s just based on a couple of games, where, in a perfect world, they’d have the same MMR.

IMO, the titles are enough prestige for any pvper to enjoy.

thats true !

i want to add something:

If a net want to have some special achievement, they could use maybe:

do for example:
500 pvp matches
250 wins in the season
1000 kills

and so on…

everyone will have a chance to get it

Why can’t you play PvP to become the top 250 though?
What stops you from doing that? You may surprise yourself. Those wanting AP removed seem to just not be able, due to lack of skill at the game, or just don’t want someone else having something they aren’t able to obtain.

???
top 250 = 6 points and 1 of 7 achievements

Forcing PvE-players and AP-hunters to participate in PvP is the wrong way to populate it!

The idea to get exclusive PvP titles and how they have been implemented into the game is well done BUT … they shouldn’t be bound to AP.

I suggest you to change it to 0 AP and the special title will be the best way for all players … PvP Player got there special shine stuff
Most PvP-Players don’t care about AP but you are going to destroy the leaderboard of AP-hunters with this decision. I don’t think that this was your intention.

You shouldn’t forget that every single AP has a great impact on the achievements’ list (and we are playing for over 4 years now to reach it…take that in mind please)

The Top AP Hunter are just a small group of players … don’t forget us and don’t snatch the fun of the game from us.

PvP and WvW already have AP in most Achievements….. it has since inception….. this is no different. If you really cared about Hunting AP then you should have no problem competing for the 6 AP

but this new achievements has a time limit

and we are talking abount 42 AP (you must be ranked 1)
