Fixing Mythic+

I propose:

Skill based MMR that teaches you the game. Rank ups from graded red to green color scores for your class for the following stats:

Average distance from tank, based on spec, much looser for intentionally slow classes

Ability uptime, do you press buttons?

Total run time, relative to the dungeon benchmark

Total score is your best score of each type added together

Improve scores to move up difficulty tiers

Matchmade, ditch keys.

Make many many tiers, make the top like 20 out of 100 tiers impossible. Let people bite into it forever, strategize, get world firsts.

ilvl-less, fixed stat balance tiers manually done for each dungeon and tier each season. Can do it all once and set it and forget it, no more garbage nonsense bugs and broken crap for long periods of time. Just play in the range you can actually do and stop harassing people with purchased scores. Are a few people going to buy pilots? Yes, but it will be like 1% as many.

And from my other recent dungeon post:

What if, they split the queue like BG? Make single lane dungeons the dungeon queue, and have multilane dungeons be the epic dungeon queue.

If the game is actually fun to play for people, they will play it more. This system would be played like nothing WoW has ever seen.

MMR or ELO wouldn’t work for M+. This isn’t a new idea, it’s been hashed out before.

There is an addon trying to do the more indepth tracking for m+.

Wowop. Io

They’ve just started and are making a lot of adjustments and getting players to submit logs.

You should check it out.

How do you even judge that in every possible context? Some bosses require people to be far from the tank. In other cases we’re all supposed to stack. This is also affected by what healer you have, if it’s a shaman or evoker you should stand in correct places unlike grouping with a priest for example. Many mob abilities in the game force people to spread out or move in some ways that would affect this scoring criteria.

There’s no way a system will judge skill based on distance to the tank.

this is just a silly standard.

we have raider io and warcraft logs.

this is just a bunch of gibberish with no real standards applied to it.
