I’m a PvP player, and I just got my 400 hunter, so I decided to craft 100 rare shortbows and go to the mystic forge for the first time in 2 years…
Here what I got after 20 attempts.
At this time, you can be #1 in the leaderboard or #9000, you earn the same amount of rank points (and rewards), where it shouldn’t be the case.
I know that comes April 15th, ranks will be more pointless than ever, but rewarding more the better players is still something Anet should be looking at.
So, I’ve been thinking that we could easily reward better players by adding a simple thing :
In SoloQ, no matter that you win or lose, you go back to the mists after the end of the match.
What if the winning team could go to the next round (and not necessarily against another winning team) ?
So, it could go like this :
0 win = 300 rank points – 12,5 silver
1 win = 1000 rank points – 25 silver – (1) reward track (I don’t know how this will work)
2 wins = 1300 rank points – 35 silver – (1.5) reward track
3 wins = 1500 rank points – 45 silver – (1.5) reward track
4 wins = 1700 rank points – 60 silver – (2) reward track
5 wins = 2000 rank points – 80 silver – (2) reward track
…
Up to 10, 15, 20 wins ?
Of course, this could be capped, and it’s inspired by SoloArena in GW1, but winning many games straight would require 5 very good players. This way, hardcore gamers could rank up faster and earn more rewards than casuals.
It’s easy to implement and this could be something while we’re waiting for the next big thing for top players.
Not even a single response from devs one week after, what does that mean ? They don’t give a crap about it ? It’s just sad, we could’ve had some discussion about all this, but here, it’s just a slap in our faces.
And why do people have to get each and every single thing there is to get in the game ?
As a pvper, I don’t mind not getting all the stuff pvers have, like achievement points, tons à money, several legendarues, craft 500…
So, if pvers want to get a rank finisher, they have to work their kitten off to get it.
Hardcore pvpers (and stop with the TROLOLOL SKYFARMER) should always have better rank than casual or semi casual pvpers, because that’s the only thing pvpers have, that’s one of the goals we look forward.
I’m r65+, and I don’t want the dragon finisher right now, I want to work hard to get it. As it stands, i could have stopped pvp like 8 months ago and still have the r80 in 2 weeks time. So I almost did 8 months of pvp for nothing, except for my skill, but where are the reward for being a hardcore pvper ?
I really think that casual pvers would have been so happy to get a r40 and show it off in pve, he would still feel proud having it, and knowing that players have bear, shark or phoenix should not be a problem as he’s not a hardcore pvpers, but who cares ? R40 is still a big achievement for him. Let the hardcore pvpers have bigger ones, that’s it.
How many guys have been playing on this account ? 55 000 gold and 28 000 gems, is this serious ? Are u Bill Gates ?
Ok, so i’ll ask a question :
If we take the top100 teamQ in both NA/EU, what’s is the lowest rank ? What is the average rank ? How many players are under r50 ?
So you see… Ranks MEAN something.
Everybody will agree that r70 should be the new r80. Not less, not more.
r70 is still a long-term goal for any pvpers (count the number of r70 in game atm, they are few) and the dragon finisher will still be quite pretigious.
As long as I can remember, the r40s’ of 2014 are WAY weaker than those from one year ago due to the increased rank points.
When I see a r40, I know i can beat him easily and/or will be a burden to the team. It wasn’t the case one year ago.
And now what ? I’ll see a r80 and in few months, and could be r30ish in his skill, but he still will have the same rank as high level players. What’s the point ?
So, if i understand the meaning of these changes, as a r67 player, playing pvp from now to April 15th is USELESS ? I’ll be r80, and we have no reward whatsoever.
I guess I can try pve now..
Hi,
My name is Eelya, thief and main character, and I am looking for a team who plays at high level.
I am currently around top100 TeamQ, i’m a french speaker but I am able to fit into an english-speaking team.
I’m open to improve myself by feedbacks at ends of games, as I am open to improve myself by trainings and regular play.
I have 4000 tournies played at the moment and i’m always looking for bigger games with bigger challenges.
If you feel that I could enter your team with both my and your interests being satisfied, then you can whisper me anytime in game.
See you
As reported by 80% of players, there are heavy lags going on, which led to delay ESL Tournament.
This said, I have a request :
Don’t count any of the games (SoloQ and Team Arena) in the leaderboards.
I played a game and I couldn’t even move in the last half of the game.
The losses due to heavy lags should not be counted when the lags come from internal servers !
