Wasn’t around for the announcement and now there are way too many topics on the subject, would someone mind giving me a quick rundown on the changes so I can understand context?
if thats the case you and most of your friends likely never got above 1800 the mark i have set for if you have accomplished much in pvp. not trying to be a jerk just simply a fact that 1800/rival ish is a good bar to set for this.
This is a current tbc private server and that’s the highest rating everyone else is 100 or more rating away from them. Don’t expect current retail rating inflation if 2008 is the benchmark
No i’m using the wotlk mmr system to make my point(the system they are using for tbc)
you start at 0 not 1500.
you have retail mmr.
You should check my arena achievements before you make such a ridiculous statement.

btw, this stuff is also really hated in retail, they are really disconnected from their playerbase

I would say its broken if people who are playing for player vs player experience constantly deal with people who q to lose on purpose for free gear that make it a player vs target dummy and waste 5 minutes.
that is the post

if you got 2.2 with that logic it was a hard carry then.
theres zero reason to drop the mmr to gain synergy. synergy is just playing together. if you cant win vs 1700s dropping to 1400 to play them isnt going to help you get better.
needing a specific rating to buy gear sucks
starting rating sounds fine though
1700’s? buddy i play at 2500+mmr,nobody was losing to 1700’s, actually we’d go undefeated all the way to 2k… i’m just saying mmr doesnt stop high rated players from facing lower rated.

Yea, sorry, most people don’t do that…
But adding more rating gated gear does?

I think that needs to change too. The above post does a nice job of explaining why.

it was there in s3, i like it its a rewarding feeling finally getting it.
i was just using numbers in general you could implement that, and of course it doenst its about the mmr of the 3 not the cr.
well it makes you play better and harder trying to get there. gives you something to chase. i never said the rating made it easier to get to a rating. but i can tell you one piece of gear will not help you get 100 points.
And it should be there in S3…like it was in TBC.
