Changes in PvP for the better...

Post by Syvar »

Here was the systems panel discussion related to PvP.

Rated Battlegrounds
- Earn arena points in battlegrounds
- Featured weekly battleground will be the same as the weekend battleground

How Rated Battlegrounds work
- Queue with any group, doesn't have to be the same group each time
- You will have a Personal Rating and Matchmaking Rating
- Win the BG, you gain rating and arena points as soon as the game is complete
- Lose the BG, you will not lose rating
- There will be a lifetime history of wins and losses across the different BGs
- Arena will be changed to also win arena points as you win games
- There will be a weekly limit on how many points you can get

Rated Battleground Rewards
- Classic Honor Titles are back
- Epic Ground Mounts
- Arena Points
- Guild Achievements and Levels

Tal Barad
- Combination of Wintergrasp and Isle of Quel'Danas
- While active, it plays like Wintergrasp capturing control points
- While inactive, plays like Isle of Quel'Danas
- Bosses give Marks of Honor

I am guessing they are for the whole rated BG thing. They cannot give gladiator title to the best BG'er because they weren't in arena. That simple.

To elaborate a little bit more the rated BGs will be challenging and it willtake a long time to get good rating. And is very hard commanding 10-40 people to get your faction to win.

Nonetheless you can get arena points from the rating. Now because this is officially being rated, the old classic titles can come back into the game. :)
