  1. You can choose out of your class. I've been selecting gear on snipers/gunslingers for my sorc healers, and any other class I wanted from the MWS equipment vendors on Ossus. go the the center selection box, and instead of choosing a spec, select ALL. then scroll down the the set, and piece you want.

     

    Wow thank you guys for pointing that out. Makes it much more easy now.

  2. As a pretty big housing fan, i must admit to the guys above me.

     

    My biggest problem is with all those restrictions (hooks - no scaling - no wall,floor or ceiling change ) you cant go crazy and do something fun. It all looks like a garage where you just place stuff and thats it.

     

    why cant i hang all my trees on the ceiling and have an upside down room? Or make a room so dark i only have a glimming light in it.

     

    Why not? Allow some fun in our own houses - we want to make our own rules there. Everything else can be boring no problem with it. But dont cut my creativity!

  3. Bad idea, encourages stat farming. A win should be a win and a loss should be a loss.

     

    actually a win is still a win and a loss wont be a win just for the best prepared and best players that helped most a minor loss. Thats all.

     

    Stat farming? You wont get more for overhealing. If you make the most damage - good. If you protect everyone even better. And in the end everyone knows that they need to win to gain points at all.

     

    So even if one guy decides to hit the tank all the time to get enough dmg for the most battle points its still so useless that the team will lose and he wont get anything - so he will play to win.

     

    Sure you could say, a jug will have prot and heal and dmg points so he makes more that a mara. But there could be a formula that says as a dd your dmg counts twice and the rest minor.

  4. I would just make it open end.

     

    But you get nothing for it.

    Only bragging rights.

     

    So playing on a 100 would feel more rewarded.

     

    I mean if you are in BIS gear and 100 then the motivation really gets a bit under the carpet.

     

    Though the only reason they dont have it open end in my mind is that they want to expand it in the future.

     

    Or they just never thought about it...

  5. The problem is that when you throw together a solo ranked, it doesn't really engender itself for finding out who the best of the best is. The best player in the world queued with 3 trolls will still loss 99.999% of the time. And the .0001 is because the other team dc'ed.

     

    Thus the current system fails it doesn't allow for that to happen because rewards are only determined on the outcome of the match and the performance of said team, and not on the individual who is queueing as an individual.

     

    Add that you can probably guarantee that most of the people who are at the top of solo queues are queue syncing with their friends and if they all don't get a pop, then they don't take the queue.

     

    True.

     

    There were already a lot of suggestions how to improve solo ranked based on individual performance.

    This is one of my favorites if i remember correctly:

     

    Like adding all numbers and divide through 3 or so (dmg+prot+heal/3=rank in your team) and then have something like that (probably there should be some more numbers taken in account - succesfull interupts or ccs)

     

    1. WINNER TEAM - Name01 - 54034 Battle Points - +15

    2. WINNER TEAM - Name02 - 45034 Battle Points - +10

    3. LOSER TEAM - Name03 - 34034 Battle Points - +0

    4. WINNER TEAM - Name04 - 30050 Battle Points - +9

    5. LOSER TEAM - Name05 - 28034 Battle Points - -2

    6. WINNER TEAM - Name06 - 25034 Battle Points - +6

    7. LOSER TEAM - Name07 - 20034 Battle Points - -6

    8. LOSER TEAM - Name08 - 12034 Battle Points - -10

     

    So the best player who got unlucky of the loser team dont lose points or just less.

     

    You could say "oh thats so unfair for the undergeared and unskilled people then they will never make it out of swamp" - Guess what? Gear up and skill up or play in a group.

     

     

    But i highly doubt this will ever come.

    Before they will improve it they will trash solo ranked.

    R.I.P 8v8.

  6. They are either:

     

    1) trying to recolor a mount quick;

     

     

    I bet on this.

     

    But the damage is already done.

    If they dont explain to us why they thought those rewards were the best they can do every following decision that is any pvp related will be viewed with more critic. So without an explanation they are only digging their own grave.

     

    COMMUNICATE WITH US BIOWARE! WE DESERVE IT!

  7. if you look at all the posts it seems alot of people are only in it for the rewards.. sure they could be better but if rewards is your only incentive to do things you're in the wrong market. a fancy title that shows your the top dog should be enough really.

     

    no no thats not right.

     

     

    We are doing RANKED for the rewards and the fame.

    So the incentive to do RANKED are besides sweat and fun the rewards.

     

    And as they established a baseline of rewards with S1 and even asked the PVP community what they want and everyone was pitching in their wishes. So its just a huge letdown that they are giving us those prices because NO ONE said i want a helmet without repair cost and a poster.

    The expectations were really high, also because of BW somehow asked us. But after all it was only a marketing stunt.

     

    thats why some of us are not happy in the moment.

  8. ...but you PVP for the constant influx of players and not mindless NPCs. Am I rite? Yes? I mean you don't care as long as you got someone to pvp with? :D

     

    first: no clue why pves always seem to be in the urge criticize the pvp posts. No idea why, tell me.

    Show me one entry where anyone from the pvp faction says something against the rules of PVE.

     

    second: your statement has nothing to do with my argument. Your statement describes a general approach to PVP that indeed PVPers do have.

  9. There should be at least one tier for 2000+

     

    Why not simply use the rating color tiers?

     

    And add a tier between 1200 and 1600

     

    so we got:

     

    <1200 (people who lost more than they gained in the entire season)

    1200 - 1599

    1600 - 1999

    2000+

    (Top)

     

    Drop the top 3 rewards if necessary as they are utter nonesense without cross server queues.

     

    And make sure you don't reward trolls and win traders! If you actually read the tickets it should be fairly easy to figure out who the worst of them are!

     

    Yep agree with that.

     

    Just announce it at the BEGINNING!

     

    As stated before to the PVE peeps - image you run a OP and nothing drops but a timer is running. After three months running it every day BW announces a given time you should have cleared it. And then gives you a picture with a silver or golden frame...

  10. The damn bracket is low, 1500 or 1600, cba copying a 1580ish toon to test, but the toon with 1610 was definitely in gold tier. They should make it a bit higher, quite a bit, especially if they add new rewards. Seriously, WoW highest tier is like top 0.5%.. Here it's basically everyone with 5 fingers on each hand.

     

    I dont say the brackets numbers are wrong.

     

    The problem is they dont let us have time to get to the ranking. At least on my server ranked is more than dead.

    I have no chance now to improve my rating.

     

    They have to announce the brackets in the beginning! The rewards itself they can announce it later on.

     

    Actually the hightes tier is now the top 3 players so its maybe even 0,005 %

  11. Seeing that mount motivated me to play non-stop until I got at least one toon over the 1500 rating.

     

    Which will now get you next to nothing. Gold starts at 1600.

     

    I freaking hope they change it back to 1500. A lot of us parked it there. Now there is no time left because BW needed 3 months to create those awesome rewards and not even announcing the shift in brackets and rated is now dead at least on my server.

     

    Its just mean!

     

    And yes iam crying because BW somehow promised me something i wont get after all the hard work. Yes they never said it would be same but also they never said it could be something else, only lesser brackets.
