Re: Is guard too powerful?

I don't really think guard is too OP as it is, but there are some changes I think would be interesting to see: 1) You need a shield to get the 50/50 guard, If you are using a 2h your guards effectiveness should be reduced (ex: 75/25) 2) Guard should have diminishing returns, first guard is 100% eff...

Re: Some Ranked Statistics

You interpret your own data wrong and thats the problem with your data. Your data show total participation. If you want to know something about the "skill cap" of different classes, you can find indicators in the ranked data: The highest mmr IB is on position 49. Way below other classes. ...

Re: Some Ranked Statistics

One thing I'd like to address is that while a high skill cap on certain classes seems like a plausible explanation for why certain classes are seeing less participation than others, doesn't that mean that IB and Blackguard are expected lower on the list? In both measurements I have taken they are a...

Re: Some Ranked Statistics

No way to prove this. I did play plenty of games, also with and against the ppl on top of the leaderboard. Only anecdotal evidence, but I would say your assumption is wrong at least for ppl with 1000+mmr. What you described might happen (I would say its likely) in the bracket where you can matched ...

Re: Some Ranked Statistics

I see where you're going with this, but I don't necessarily agree. You will probably agree with me that in its current form it is easy to "play the system". And what I mean by that is collecting outside information on things that will influence your win chances in Ranked. That is: avoidin...

Re: [ORDER] Potentially Strange Questions Regarding Tankiness and Damage

Highest dmg on tank is Swordmaster, due to spirit dmg. IB doing ok, too. Kobs is **** at dealing dmg. Tankiest healer is WP, but rp can have high surviveability thanks to stoutness of stone tactic, too. AM is squishiest healer by far. Highest dmg on "healers" (with dmg spec) has AM, yes. N...

Re: Why don't you queue ranked?

Reward the quality of matches, for fair and tense ones, close victories, unexpected returns, with adequate mmr gains for both teams (who clearly tried their best during 10 looooong minutes), and we can start talking again about queueing ranked. How will you measure this? Just because two teams play...

Re: Some Ranked Statistics

Based on the ranked data a SH has a winning chance of 51,4% (if you ignore draws) when joining a scenario. Based on the ranked data a IB has a winning chance of 47,8% (if you ignore draws) when joining a scenario. I didnt get the numbers for the other classes, but these two should be enough to show...

Re: Nomination - Realm Champion - Engi

Isn't lesti the guildleader of this guild which constantly uses terrain exploits and force the developers to fix them, instead of focussing on bug fixes? I mean, I took them 3(?) years to fix the Engi!

No, lesti would be a terrible choice.
