My rated BG first impressions

[Kromtor]

If you read one of my posts a few months ago I stressed that boxing would be detrimental to the team, any team. Focus fire means jack in bgs when everyone respawns so fast, sure its good to coordinate kills but it wont win the game for you. Also, once people start getting resilience, haha good luck.

So far the team I am on is 10-2 and my rating is 792, but others are different even though we played the same number of games. I dont know what is going on. We have only had 2 really good games and we lost both those, but damn were they fun. The 10 wins were just so easy we felt bad. Edit; This is solo- I guess it doesnt help. ;(


In terms of arena, everyone should get 2200 with ease. The MMR system is so broken atm everyone is getting inflated mmrs. There are 3-4 classes(war,mage,feral,aff lock) that are insane atm and even though hunters are not insane dmg wise they prove to still be one of if not the best bg class.

i agree. boxers who are used to cleaning up in pugs vs nobody's are going to find that playing geared, organized teams with healers and CC is another thing altogether. smart rogues and mages will ruin your day. smart teams will purposefully not kill off all your guys. there are so many ways to screw with boxers in BG's and screw up the graveyard synch.

what's the deal with the inflated ratings in arenas that you're talking about? they just screw it up with the changes that were made to tie it in with bg's or what?

Yeah. what does inflated mmr mean ?

I gain big when I beat low MMR teams, and I lose little when I lose to low MMR team ? So my MMR always goes up, no matter what.

I sense some of it when I played solo with my friends but since we are not 1500 + on team/personal ratings yet. so I can't tell how much
