I really do love this set. Can't wait to get it. Looks like it won't be that big of a pain either. The wolf collar weapons will also pair very well with this.

I'm liking it so far, although I'm still getting used to the new PvP skills for jobs and the overall layout.

One thing I'm confused about is the difference between ranked vs casual mode? Outside of getting stars, it seems like you get the same amount of exp. Do you get additional awards in ranked mode?

Ranked mode has a reward based on how far you get into it.
Series is basically like unranked rewards that's given to everyone as long as you play.

Honestly I'm not impressed. Too few skills, the maps are too small the matches are too short and are way too unbalanced. People are going to get bored of this pretty fast. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad folks are enjoying it, its too disassociated from the rest of the game and that's not a good thing in my opinion.

People keep spamming this because their teammates refuse to get near the circle. The teammates are off in Narnia chasing kills when they need to be focusing on the objective.

Since we have no way of typing "Hey guys we need SOMEONE in the circle" it turns into "Push the payload"

Purify would be much better if it dispeled and provided 5s of CC immunity.

Imo ranked is unplayable aslong you cant queue with a group and there is a fixed class amount. I worked myself from bronze 1 3 stars back to bronze 3 0 stars just by bad luck with teammates (like 2 heals 1 tank 2 dps vs. 1 tank 4 dps)

1 win away from gold rank and went on a bad losing streak this morning all the way back to Silver 3 (1 star)
