Advice for the MVP Vote

[spythe]

If your getting healing in a Warzone actually give a vote to the person on your team with the most healings. Sick of doing Warzpmes and only seeing top dmg get voted for the MVP of the match.

I always MVP healers when I pug wz's. And for some reason healers MVP me. They love people who peel

[brotherspoe]

My mvp goes to top objective points and healers.

 

I wish someone would vote for me i always get top obj points

[Sacriledge]

I always heal in warzones, and i either MVP the person with the top objectives or the team mate who annoyed me the least.

[Marrik]

As a dps and ex healer in other mmo's I feel the pain of healers being unappreciated. I am always giving the mvp vote to the person who tops the heal chart.

Really?

 

I usually do top damage, most kills, most guard, etc I get maybe 1 or 2 votes...

Same - even having done 200k and 40k healing, I'd still get fewer MVP votes than a healer who has done 50k healing.

 

Of course, a bigger problem is that usually only 4-5 players even bother to click an MVP button at all (maybe give some tiny incentive to actually vote, like a single commendation?), and what calculates "Objective Score" seems completely arbitrary. I've had 1-0 wins in Huttball where I carried the ball 90% of the way before a teammate finally decided to run in front of me to receive, and yet somehow my objective score was 0.

I usually vote for the highest healing or damage/kills.

 

Objective points seem kind of busted anyways. For example, in a game of Huttball I capped 4/6 of our team's points (we won 6-0) and wasn't even top 3 in objective points.

Try being a pvp tank if you don't want mvp votes.

There seems to be a bug, where if you get added to a warzone, you can not vote now. I have been a victim of this or you can not vote for people who are in the warzone because they came late or they left/dc'd/etc.

 

But I agree, there are certainly people who can vote that do not and others that just vote for whom ever or their friend, just cuz.

if someone has top dmg most kills chances are they arent focused on objective aka they should be the last ppl you mvp

[Malaix]

It depends. Most of the time I never notice a healer. I either have to heal myself or I die, and I vote accordingly.

 

I focus almost soley on objectives and ive won a few matches single handedly with bomb plants and slicing terminals but that never nets me MVP either.

Same, I always vote on the person who has done the least damage, because that a sure fire way to know they're really contributing. Of course, sometimes it means I'm voting for people who are afk, disconnected, joined the game half way through, simply don't know how to play, or a combination of all 4, but it's worth it to know that sometimes I'll be hitting someone who is doing no damage because they're really, really dedicated to objectives.

 

Except objectives like killing the person carrying the huttball, killing the people attacking your own carrier, killing people trying to capture or defend a turret and killing people trying to plant or defuse a bomb. But all other objectives than that, they're all over it.

haha true, but on the other hand tanks get medals much easier and faster. I get like 8-11 medals per warzone which is really nice boost to commedations and valor.
