Also what about the gear matching system for bgs? I know they said they wanted to implement it but are they planning on putting it in the expansion or at a later time?
Q u o t e:
SO pretty much play 14/7 grind grind grind again. No good for casuals. Nice!
Q u o t e:
Sorry Drysc, a quick followup that I hadn't seen asked. At the end of the 3 month season, do you lose your arena points (currency), or do they roll over into the next season?
Q u o t e:
Theres a post somewhere that says pre70 and 70 when not with your team, arena will be strictly Skirmish, no ratings involved. I'll see if I can find it for you.
Q u o t e:
Edit: now that I've got you into my trap of doom can you answer whether or not lower levels can get PvP reward gear,not just capes and trinkets, in any way shape or form?
Q u o t e:
Ok, this system makes no sense. "The players with the better record will get the rewards faster".
Thus the players who are already better than everyone else will be even more unbeatable because they have the better Arena gear.
The bottom line is that the losers should get the rewards faster to create a more balanced playing field and make the arena competitive.
Q u o t e:
What happened to all the past responses saying things along the lines of, "most of the top-end rewards will have a rank requirement as well?" Which blue responses are accurate and which ones are bull%**#?
They can't both be right.
Q u o t e:
How does it work with the players who sit out most of the time as alternates?
Are they considered part of the team or do they only get arena points for matches they actually participate in?
Q u o t e:
?????? so your saying pre lvl 70, all we can do is skirmishes that accumulate NO arena points and are playing just for practice and CANT get rewards till we reach lvl 70?? if what i said is true, thats bull....how about us casuals who play a limited time and cant dedicate 24/7 to wow??
Q u o t e:
Can you set up skirmish matches and play against people you *CHOOSE*? (for no points at all)
PLEASE SAY YES!!!
Q u o t e:
Can my character only be in 1 bracket at one time? Or can I be on a 2v2 arena team, 3v3 and a 5v5 teams (basically playing in 3 brackets for my character).
Q u o t e:
You only get "cool prizes" to the top teams, yet everyone has access to the same things. Unless those "cool prizes" are free rewards that everyone else can spend arena points on, you're spewing out a contradiction.
Q u o t e:
And do please quit trying to hide behind exact wordings as a means of side-stepping an answer. "You didn't use the exact right term that we're using in house, so instead of actually answering, I will tilt my head to the side and act bewildered by your stupity." It's getting really, really old and is the source of the growing venom you guys receive on these forums.
Q u o t e:
So no, everyone doesn't have access to the same rewards. Instead, everyone has access to one set of rewards, and you still have to be one of the "top teams" to get the real rewards of the arena system -- the ones on par with the PvE rewards.
In other words, no, everyone won't eventually have access to the full set of rewards from the arena. That's all you had to say instead of trying to make it sound more glorious than it actually is.
Q u o t e:
Also, if there are only 2 people in my 2v2 team roster, and one disconnects/afk's, do i forfeit the game and get a mark against me?
Q u o t e:
Also, do different level brackets have their own fighting systems? you said that the 'best teams' will play against other 'best teams', so does this mean a good lvl 30 team would be playing against a bad lvl 40 team? (i am, of course, talking exclusively of the skirmish side of the arena system)
Q u o t e:
Thanks!
Q u o t e:
Delete my post if I'm commenting on "unreleased content" here, but the screenshots I've seen of the arena rewards are only five-piece sets (I'm pretty sure). Is it likely that arena items for other slots will be cycled in as the seasons change, or should arena doodz expect to be filling those item slots elsewhere (such as through PvE-acquired gear, crafted stuff, or normal honor reward gear)?
