Rated BG's, thoughts?

[outdrsyguy1]

Anyone do any rated bg's yet? Love to hear your comps and thoughts.
I found it interesting that you can get points from arena, but can't raise your weekly cap unless you get higher ratings in rated BG's.

I'm having a hard time finding a team as a boxer so far, maybe it's cause there aren't a ton of 85's yet or something? Be interesting to see what people do on monday nights now for points since you can't just lose 10 and get points....
(i'll miss the points on my alts, but not the time losing the matches lol)

Can't raise cap unless do rated BG ? you sure ?

I read it in game it was based on your arena rating and rated BG rating whichever is higher.

I think you misread in game. Look carefully at arena description and BG description under the conquest tab. Only rated bg's list the capability of raising your points cap. Arena just says it's for points and possibly better gear.

Think you're just misinformed :)

"Q. What are the normal benefits of winning a Rated Battleground?

A. When you win a Rated Battleground, you will be rewarded Conquest points, up to your weekly cap. Weekly caps are individual for each player and are based on your highest single PvP rating from the previous week (the cap resets on Tuesdays). This rating can be derived from your 2v2, 3v3, or 5v5 Arena rating or your Rated Battleground rating."
