Ranking system D4

I honestly think we need some sort of better ranking system in this game to keep people pushing.
Similar to D3. Who can clear pits faster for each class.
Would also love a D4 official app. Where can check items , inventory , quests etc…::maybe even allow to do tempering and master work on it.
Something similar to Destiny app.
Please add a market place where we can trade/sale items.
You don’t really have pvp in this game and it’s never going to be great.
Diablo games should be about rankings.
Why you think wow is still around ? For the exciting quest line ? It survives because of duels and competition.
If you don’t work on a proper ranking system in this game people will get bored.

I don’t mind leaderboards but there’s other stuff I’d want to see happen before that.

If we will have ranking system, we need also non tranding self found separate ranking from standard trading with a proper action-house.

Like what? For me Self found + ranking, masterworking revamp are top priorities, of course only new endgame would top this.

People clamoring for leaderboards is how we got the gauntlet. They gave up and said,”okay… how do we trick people into doing this more than once?”

We need to stop telling them everything we want added so they can focus on fixing what we have.

Once the game works properly, then they can take a measured approach to adding new things.

It’ll still be a lazy, minimum effort version of whatever gets added… but maybe it won’t be broken and then we tell them how to fix that too… cuz that’s how this works.

If we keep insisting that this game does not require leaderboards and self found mode vs trade mode (with a proper action house) we will go pikachu face when nobody plays S7 after a few days and they go to a competitor game where they already have basic things like these existing and updates that are pouring weekly.

Crafting, affix weighting and drop rate updates. More endgame like pinnacle bosses, maybe another mode. Auction house, map overlay. And then maybe updates to clans, pvp and ladder boards. That’s my wish list.

Where did i say that? Try some reading comprehension instead of seeing disagreement if the response isn’t “oh you’re right… let’s do that now”

I think in another world I would probably agree with you but there is no ability to balance here. Even within a class… are you using the totally broken paragon node or not? Who wants to pvp/otherwise be ranked when all things broken shall remain broken?

They must rewrite whole game for that.
Greater Rift in D3 is masterpiece. The Pit is just shadow of that.

I have to agree Pit leaderboards, the reintroduction of Gauntlet and more/better PvP would all be great positives for the end-game in my opinion, however there are some things that i think must happen first:

  1. Crack down on duping and RMT
  2. Inter-Class balance: Max power of all classes needs to be much closer for any of the above to make sense
  3. Intra-Class balance: there needs to be far greater parity between primary build paths within classes

And some things I’d like to see prioritized before these as well:

  • Stabilization and bug fixes
  • In-game auction house

Sadly it’ll be a cold day in hell before we see an AH in this game. Or a new director, either way it’ll take a while.

Yeah i don’t see them prioritizing this, but it is sad because the degree of control it could give them to get cheating/rmt/wrecked economy under control is huge.

So here’s the deal gud sir:

The game is unbalanced to the point of being a joke. Even when playing the same class, the different builds are miles apart. This doesn’t directly hinder the purpose of a leaderboard, though it would shine a hilarious light on the Dev’s inability to care for their game.

RMT for gear and dupes are rampant. SSF would fix this for the leaderboard, though people have so little to do after the first week, if you make trading invalid the game will become a ghost town even faster.

The Pit is the only thing people would consider the best option for a leaderboard, and it’s extremely boring.

They cant even make proper chat channels and you want an app?? Baby steps lol

Pit leaderboards and a leaderboard for people who hit paragon 300 the fastest. Easy leaderboards to implement and from activities people are already engaging with unlike the gauntlet.

move along nothing to see here… i somehow misread Burn’s post as saying pit leaderboard is a leaderboard for people who hit paragon 300 the fastest…

consequently, I have deleted my completely irrelevant reply :stuck_out_tongue:

why ? to people cheat like they did recently in the Gauntlet ?

I’m confused isn’t this the same company that makes WoW ?
How can they not figure this out.
Look I’m just going to come out and say it. I don’t care if I get banned lol
We all know why Microsoft purchased Blizzard, it’s not rocket science.
Blizzard it’s a huge gaming company with some iconic Titles dating back to the 90’s AND they always developed for IOS Apple. Figure it out.
But please keep in mind this franchise has a huge legacy don’t turn it into a crap fest.
We all know you got the money and resources to turn this around.
This shouldn’t be just about making money and taking over.
It’s about legacy , pride , dignity , etc…
You’re making games ….a fun thing that makes people forget about their daily struggles.
It’s all polluted by greed.

no, they nerfed xp into the ground, max level in 6-8hrs, one session.

Leaderboards only incentives d4 to continue to transform more and more into a D3 clone… We don’t want to just farm rifts on repeat… get more like D2.
