KyoMamoru Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Didn't Season one have the first -ever- Rancor which caused a TON of people that normally didn't do Rank to pop in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L-RANDLE Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Didn't Season one have the first -ever- Rancor which caused a TON of people that normally didn't do Rank to pop in? True, but if that were the case the numbers should have stabilized from S2-S3. They didn't. The issues isn't rewards, in the foundation of ranked broken. Players see it, but the Devs haven't done anything about it to date. I'm in the process of writing a draft of a solutions thread that I hope will be stickied, much like the "What rewards..." Thread. I'm waiting til 3.0 to get a grasp of this "better than xserver" system they came up with. If it's exactly where I would go with all PvP, especially ranked, I won't submit it. If not, it will give the PvP peeps a splash page to offer ideas for the Devs to FIX THE FOUNDATION OF PVP... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxmob Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Didn't Season one have the first -ever- Rancor which caused a TON of people that normally didn't do Rank to pop in? yes. it's still easily the most appealing season-ending prize (s1-3). the VG/PT thing is sooo true. Incredibly versatile solo spec. Not as versatile as jugg for that sham guard play, but you don't really see any useless PTs in solo. it's almost impossible not to do deeps on that AC. on the opposite end, I totally see what's happening with sins. it's a finesse class, and while there are some really good ones, the mean is pretty bad. it's not an easy play. but the rep is a product of the handful of really good players (per server). I've only in the past couple weeks noticed a lot of sorcs in solo q - but boy do I see that now! and I'm seeing A LOT OF MERC HEALERS in solo (compared to all healers in solo). there's really only 1 or 2 regular op heals. less than one regular sorc and 3-4 regular mercs. that's kinda surprising anecdotal evidence.

Savej Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Season 2 was shorter than season 1 and season 3 isn't over yet so it's hard to read too much into the participation trends although I do agree that group ranked is fading fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DerTaran Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Mercs/Commandos have been bottom in each season, but whereas there were three other poor classes in Season 1, and two in Season 2, they are flat worst on their own in Season 3. quod erat demonstrandum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthOvertone Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 From all of the info provided in that report, the following two points stand out to me as the most important: The total number of characters participating in Group Ranked has fallen each season, though the experience has varied greatly between servers. Group Ranked has seen season-on-season declines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
