General_Aldo Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Hello all. I know that the group rank scene on The Bastion is declining more and more everyday. However, I think there could be a solution that would bring more teams to compete. Someone (you know who you are) should make a thread or something that could have anyone who is interested in doing ranked (good pugs and solostars) can sign up. There could be a universal mumble/teamspeak/vent channel that everyone who signs up can join to put together teams easier. Also, for each faction, there could be a new guild just for this. Just an idea. * I would be interested in this with my scoundrel healer. (Although i have little ranked experience, I am a quick learner) *** This is just an idea that I believe could be practical if someone could step up and lead us. I know there are people who are interested in playing rank but aren't currently in a position to do so. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't been playing much recently, I'll be back in the grove in about 2 weeks though, hopefuly the game doesn't stay on the decline dueling tournament tomorrow, you should duel on your mando man, I know other mercs/mandos that wanna duel full middle tree vs other good mandos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General_Aldo Posted December 16, 2013 Author Share Posted December 16, 2013 Will no one step up and lead us? There are people who currently aren't doing group rank (good pugs and solostars) but are willing to learn and play. I know this can help revive the group rank scene on The Bastion.

Sangrar Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 (edited) I would but I got booed out of ranked. I am great at 8v8 (even got the screenshot of me, a commando healer, healing for 794202 in one match) but for arenas, well, I got booed out of that and I show up as one of the worst players on the bastion at the moment ( that assassin I soloed and that marauder I soloed in 8v8 ought to feel ashamed if I managed to beat them) Edited December 17, 2013 by Sangrar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heals per second is more of an indicator of how impressive that number is or isn't. Also, in ranked arenas, the only healer that can compete at the top level is an operative. If you queue heals, you're most likely matched against an op/scoundrel. The op/scoundrel is better equipped to heal a ranked arena. This is why people are upset at you for queuing as heals. Trust me, I'd love to queue as merc/mando heals since it's my favorite spec. But there isn't a place for it in ranked right now. On the topic of the thread: I love the idea. I'm slowly losing interest because of the lack of a tam to queue ranked with. I'd queue if I had any damn team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General_Aldo Posted December 17, 2013 Author Share Posted December 17, 2013 We need a leader! I know there are people out there that want to do group rank, but don't atm. Most are looking for an opportunity like this. I would join as healing on scoundrel/operative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathid Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Maybe people are not doing them due to too many Imperials using hacks (Oh i know no one use's them,,,ever). Fact of the matter is,is that rank means little to anyone anymore due to people using hacks and i am not even talking about ranked too because i have seen numerous Imp's using speed hacks and some others. And before anyone call's me out on it i was having a conversation with a guildy that played PvP primarily over on the Imp side and he even stated most of these PvP guilds over there will not let you join their main team unless you do in fact use one. People will deny,accuse of me not knowing the game (even though i have played every class) yadda yadda but it is out there,look at how the Imperials lose so much in GSF but turn the tables to standard PvP and well yah know. Personally i am at the point i don't even care for PvP anymore due to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JabstJaif Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Usually if you want to do ranked groups instead of being a solostar you join a PvP guild right??? I'm all up for ranked groups. In fact my guild is looking for some more pvpers to set up a few ranked groups here in the next week or so so we can at least get some good time running grouped rateds. Anyone who is interested...PM me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
