Stronghold is even worse for soloQ than Conquest is. And for Conquest, there are much bigger problems than just pip loss. Pip loss is a huge problem, that should be changed. I think the idea here is interesting.
But please Anet, please. Balance the classes properly, fix matchmaking to not be kittened, find a way to stop MMR gaming, and I might come back to PVP. I just finished a Conquest game, won 500-120. Rolled them. BUT, none of them were playing elite spec classes, all of us were. That doesn’t feel fun even for me, topping the scoreboard on my Reaper. It feels… sad.
The worst part is, I proceeded to come up against a coordinated low MMR team, soloq-ing myself, and lost 2 pips, the very next game.
