when queuing on a team the mmr of the team should reflect the highest mmr of the player
This would prevent teams using lower division players for easier match ups.
the problem with this is that it punishes the legitimate mixed groups, whether someone is new to pvp or returning after a long time away not everyone is going to get to the higher ranks at the same time and as such is counter to your first point of resetting mmr to allow better players to climb the leaderboard faster.
example: someone is unable to play for the first 2 weeks due to work or other outside factors, when they are finally able to start playing they come on and want to queue with their friends and play games with them, unfortunately one/all of them are in diamond or legendary already, as such they are being counted as being high MMR even though they have no mmr & would result in them havign a much slower climb up the divisions as they would be facing tougher matches right away.
second problem with this is it will limit/scare away new players from pvp as many would rather queue with guildies or friends so that they can learn to play properly or because they don’t like solo queueing, they may not be that good a player but would be still matched based upon the highest member in their team (diamond +) and would either cause people to not want to team up with lower level players as it would be a handicap, or else the new players would get so disheartened from losing horribly every time that they would give up and leave without ever wanting to return.
basically don’t punish all the legitimate people queueing with different ranked players just to stop the few that are abusing the system, there has to be a better way to deal with this issue.
as for the rest of your points i agree with them all.
There are not just few abusing the system? 90% from legendary did this.If they want to play with friends their friends should be at same level,not ruin the other people games.
Revenant (1 tier above all-need nerfing all aspects of it)
Tempest (perma 40% protection need to go to 15 sec cd, 20% dmg decrease)
Chrono(tone down all stuff by 25%)
Druid (daze from 4sec to 1 sec, 25% less heal, 30% less pet dmg)
DH (daze need to go home, increase cd of traps)
DD ( decrease vault dmg by 50%)
Reaper (decrease dmg of chill by 50% if wearing bers or marauder amulets, decrease effective hp)
Bers ( somehow balanced if they nerf those above: edit: actually gunflame needs big nerf in wvw – 15k dmg on 2.9k armor is too much)
Scrapper (somehow balanced if they nerf those above – meed minor tweaking)
1.BRAINDEAD BUNKER Chronomancer
2.SIT ON POINT AND WIN DOING NOTHING Auramancer
3.I HAVE MORE BOONS THAN JESUS ENGIS
4.FAP FAP YOU ARE DEAD CONDI REVENANTS
5.I AM DOING MORE DMG THAN A WARRIOR RANGER PET.
I don’t mind the bunkers so much (chrono and tempest).
What actually drives me nuts it’s Rev and Scrapper who are kittening unkillable with a glasscanon amulet while having crazy good dps and party support.
the class should be disabled until the balance patch comes out,EASy.
Comments like this always raise interesting questions for me. Did the poster actually mean it? Are they serious or trolling? If they’re serious, how long did it take them to reach this level of crazy?
Yes I am serious,In every Competitive game if something it s broken they it s disabled until it s fixed,easy again.
Translation: “I can’t kill it quickly while on my standard meta class/bunker/rev/etc therefor remove it from the game so I don’t have to change my class/build or l2p”

You should change games then because in this one condi is a viable playstyle. Especially on necro who is very geared torwards condition warfare, and while i can play power bunker necro just fine it feels shallow, gutted and like trying to fit a square into a round hole.
Idk I’ve heard that condis are easymode from multiple sources including Devs before. Sure youre right in that its a major part of this game, but you are right for the wrong reasons and hence this is why diamond skins exist. As it takes way more skill to play an ele than a condi reaper.
you just struggle against reapers and complain that condi play it s easymode?good one.
As a necro go with death perception instead of dhuumfire for crit in shroud and when you got ele to 90% convert his boons into condis and maybe you have a chance..but that s not gonna hapen to often xd.
Or when you see enemy team havin 2x ele just switch to celestial signets.
It’ll take another week or so for enough people to catch up to diamond/legend.
Or people are just sick of premades and farmers and they don t que anymore. Look how many complains they got on forums about this..if they don t do anything people will just quit the game and gw2 pvp will have wow pvp fate.
Revenant is a high skill low reward class. At no point have I played the class and felt like it was OP.
You’re probably just bad or just using the wrong build.
I probably have 5 hours on my Revenant and can easily wreck face. Hell, all the top teams on the leaderboards are using 2-3 Revenants because they have stupid high DPS. Use Unrelenting Assault to bait 2 dodges, spam condi and when they use their condition removal then spam banish enchantment for GG.
Viper Heralds are incredibly overpowered.
No I don’t think so. Obviously you have no idea what you’re talking about.
i just watched helseth stream and saw ostrich eggs latest performance, it was really embarrassing. he also has 0 swag and helseth couldn’t procede watching the interview because of him. NA is really really bad, once more proven.
I’ve seen the same stream and indeed.. the amount of mistakes he made, serious mistakes and just using skills he shouldn’t even be using at all was just embarrassing..
Using signets to convert boons to condis?ye big mistakes
Keep going with this 5 man premade against 5 random.
This post right here shows the lack of understanding in these soloq threads.
THIS IS NOT A 5 MAN PREMADE JUST BECAUSE THEY HAVE A GUILD NAME.
You get a guild name if there are 3 people together and they select as a guild team. Your team could actually be a 5 stack but not a guild squad and they are against a 3 man and two solos.
The game needs to give you a clear picture of who is in party at the start because people are clearly not understanding what a premade is and what is a duo or trio together. Nor do they understand their team could be together as well.
Very funny.
they were 5 players from same pvp guild. We were 5 random ppl matched togheter I asked.
