Return of Reckoning

I like it as well.

If people know what they are doing and listen it is possible for a much weaker team to be competitive. (Assuming the dominant side don’t know how it works)

The problem with it is not really the mechanic it’s that about half the players in game don’t know how it works and don’t ...

@JohnnyWayne

Thank you for the reply.

I am not asking for anything to fix low population but if a match maker cannot deal with low pop well it will not help.

I think the only solution when pop is low is cross realm with archetypes split evenly and trainers.

This is important to me because I ...

If all pre-made groups are Qing ranked then you will hit non optimised groups in a ranked q.

When pre-mades don’t q ranked at all because they have less than perfect set up that is a part of what makes ranked so hard.

Anyway I understand where you are both coming from, currently Group Ranked is ...

imho best option will be to deny soloers for all scs except 1-2 (including event one)
so prems will fight with prems, pugs will play with pugs

but there should be a carrot on stick for groups, thats all


They have that, it's called group ranked. Groups do not want to play that. They want to ...

@JohnWayne I found your suggestion and didn’t really understand half of it.

I did wonder really how it would deal with population issues in a way that made low population SCs balanced and enjoyable. When SCs are popping non-stop a bad one is normally cancelled out by a good one next… normally… but ...

@Melekith

The idea of a trainer could be helpful. Thought about that too. But I think it is only one aspect which could help to solve the problem.

Regarding your assumptions: I was probably too specific with what I wrote here. I was more referring to the overall game design mechanics. I think ...

Making the friends list bound to account rather than toon might be a good idea to help with group formation. The highest ranked toon on the account shows as the name and it shows what character is active on mouse over.

I quite like that idea as well but don’t think it’s a fix.

Above you seem to ...

Cross-realm scenario for solo que would be fun to try and would help with forming balanced groups for solo discordant que's of course!


This… just for discordant, not 2-2-2 ranked balanced but 10 players in q, split tanks healers and dps evenly. Put a trainer in the sc warcamp so people can ...

This seems like a good suggestion.

Not sure if it would fix the problem but if I gave a crap about K/D, right now solo q’ing event SCs is pretty rough. Not that I have ever intentionally afk’d in WC while actually playing game. Sometimes you have too when pugging because **** happens and that’s ...

As I understand it as an SM I'll be expected to slot Whispering Wind in groups. What should I sacrifice for this? Does anyone have a tinkered build they'd mind sharing for WB play?


Sorry to have left this so long and sorry to Vegeta for hijacking is thread.

If I am using WW and ED then I use x ...
