Why is there any situation where I can play an entire game of battlegrounds, make it to turn 8-9 and walk out without any XP?
If I’m having a bad streak, or if I’m just playing to try and force some crazy comps/quests then I shouldn’t be missing pass XP just because I end in 5th or 6th.
This needs to be changed to a turn timer, after so many turns you get your xp no matter what place you come in.

This is all to get people to buy their gems or whatever they are called. The only way to advance through the Battleground is to place in the top 4 and that’s it. Granted you still earn XP in the other progression track but not the BGs progression track.
why do everyone think they should get everything free even if they lost the game? with your logic everyone can just afk and finish the reward track? hell no

it have nothing to do with that. i have not spent a dime on runestones and im level 27 on the bg reward track its so people actually try and not just start do 2 3 turn and afk to get free xp. why would anyone try if you can just afk your way thru rewards. its called A REWARD for a reason right? not a freebie track!
The pass is very short.
Weekly quests also give you many points to level up (I don’t know if later it gets worse).
Getting top 4 for some XP isn’t a crazy requirement, you can eventually end there without tryharding.
You can play weird comps and have fun (I support your way of approaching to a game), which is probably better than farming XP that unlocks irrelevant stuff.
It’s still a mystery to me why they tied XP to wins in BG, where games are long and you usually waste a lot of time even when you get 5th, but they thought it was a good idea to ties XP to time in HS, where people can abuse of bots to farm it.
They are either trolling or doing things in the most obnoxious way for the players because of some oscure psychological reason.
If it was for me:
- BG gives XP based on turns (they are literally scripted in time), with a maximum cap (let’s say 20 turns, to avoid premade lobbies to farm it endlessly)
- HS gives XP based on actions (AFK = 0XP)
i would be okay if a loss give ALOT less xp than a win. lets say 2xp instead of 10. but not just get the same for a win and a loss cause it would mean no one would try lol
Of course not the same, I wrote based on turns.
Since in BG turns have a scripted time you can get to turn 8 in 6 minutes (i made numbers up) and get 8 XP, whatever your position is.
The first would get the same XP as the second (or maybe more since they are alive for an extra turn).
It would be logical, but they preferred the all of nothing method, which is very counterintuitive since HS used to have it and it was removed
Battle passes aren’t progression for being good at the game, they are just rewards to encourage people to play the game.
You don’t have to care about “advancing” in battlegrounds to enjoy the rewards.
Yeah, I’m so sure people are going to be out there AFKing to turn 8-9 just to finish the rewards track. You’ll die before that and still get nothing.
And even so, who actually cares? It’s cosmetic rewards for a silly game mode, and anybody AFKing there way to cosmetic rewards is probably not going up in rating, so the only way you’re really going to see people doing that is if you’re just starting or doing it yourself.
what is the name of the thing? isint it called a reward track?!!! lol
I think it’s a bit odd that you only get XP for wins.
Especially after the buddy system.
Since they already designed a fairly in depth means of gaining XP, I would think they could just apply similar to the rewards track.
You could go really crazy and give xps for making triples, spending gold, winning combat, top4, etc and have it “feel better” but each think would need to be a smaller portion of the total XP required
also im terrible at that game mode. im 5500 rating only and im close to level 30 on the track already. its nothing hard to achieve. since u struggle im gonna have to assume you are like 8000+ rating and fight pros or something! and basically just doing quests every week will get you all your rewards before the end. and they can even be banked!
It’s called the “season pass” you’re not clever.
Nobody is struggling, it’s just a dumb design choice for a participation reward that you have to pay for.
where does it say its a participation reward? you created that narrative. you’re not clever either! imagine thinking you can lose all the way and get rewarded for it!!! this generation is so doomed!!!
I’m using my brain to think logically about why it doesn’t behave the same as almost every battle pass/season pass style rewards track in existence. Clearly that’s something you aren’t familiar with.
Imagine being so bent because somebody can “afk” there way to a lady in a dress who sparkles instead of glistens, in a card game with fish people and a panda bear chef who blows up the kitchens.
terrible troll just try harder… i even said i would be okay to give you 2 xp per loss! but you seem to want the same reward win or lose. anyway im ignoring you since you only wanna act like a kid. the type of characters have NOTHING to do with the argument. just get good then this really wont be a problem
So just to understand you spent the $19.99 on the Battleground Progression Track?
no i did not! where did i say that i paid for that?
You didn’t say that . . . hence why I asked. The more I read this thread the more I don’t care . . . so never mind.
all good. have a nice day!
Same to you and happy gaming.
