Dethla-Hadyn Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 I hit 65 on my new guardian, then sat in yolo que while running heroics for almost 3 hours with not a single pop tonight. Usually impside will have back to back pops during prime time. If there's *any* republic pvpers left who aren't obsessed with useless regs on this sh*thole server, please send a tell to Dethla(alt 132). I'm going to run her as Vigilance for yolos. Please. Send. Tell.

Tell. I dont know if i could trust queueing yolos pubside tbh. And dont get me wrong i infinitely prefer pubs over the faction George Lucas admittedly modeled after Nazi Germany. I will only play regs pubside for that RPer in me. But for ranked, until we have cross faction, and while the player pools are separated, i will only queue on the faction with the largest population where pops happen and elo and fair random grouping has a chance to work. I hope (but doubt) they will get their collective thumbs out of their arses and implement cross faction - even if just for yolos. As its hardly a representation of true rating/elo unless you have a single pool of randomness. Edited November 30, 2015 by Lanzend

It's not like it's hard to purchase an insta60 and transfer legacy gear to the opposite faction. Class preferences aside, yolo players do need to amalgamate to some extent, and at this point in the game factions are irrelevant. If I really wanted, I could have made yet another jug to complete my weeklies on. Not to mention, *if* you managed to gather three other players( you would literally have back to back pops), if you did well, the imp kidz would accuse you of being synced. LoL. Throw the definite possibility of a disgruntled imp kid queuing on his pub, simply to /stuck your progression so his imp kid guildiez can farm rating....yeah I can see your point to an extent.
-HP- Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 Serious question: what is the point of queuing ranked in preseason? There aren't any rewards right? The queues are way longer and there's less variety, I don't really see the point?

The queues are way longer and there's less variety, I don't really see the point? Preseason after a major update is absolutely awesome...plain and simple. You get to try out your new class abilities, and the matches have great payouts. Comms are given out, so it's a much quicker way to gear out your toons and to have some good action before the season 7 starts. You can earn coms aproximately 3 times faster if you win back to back, etc, but regardless, people who que preseason, are far more competent(on average) than non geared newbies, so the action is alot more intense, and pure. Preseason is coming to an end, so everyone should wake the hell up and get into the ring. What's the point of queing regular pukezones, when you can instead que preseason ranked?
Sporticus Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Having just returned to the game to join some guildies who picked it back up as well, what exactly is the difference between ranked and unranked? I think the ranked Warzones had just been introduced when we left. Obviously there are reward differences and competitive differences, but it's the rewards/gear that I'm most curious about, as my Warmaster gear is 100% obsolete and I am sure we will be que'ing a 3 or 4 man (the other guys already are).
