    Do Seal Rock wins count towards ADS mount?

    I love PvP, although I don't do it too often. I'm rank 45 in adders, but I've only done 480(or something like that) matches and have a 31% first place rate. My PvP profile says I have 152 wins, but the ADS mount only has 139 wins credited towards it. Do Seal Rock wins not count towards the ADS mount?

    Wins are rare for adders; I could go for days without a win. So I'm hoping someone knows the answer.

    edit:

    Thanks for the replies! Good to know.

    I'm pretty sure they do, yes. The win count difference is probably because you swapped GC at some point.

    They do. I didn't start Frontlines until Seal Rock, and I have 107 wins towards the achievement.

    Swapping GC's keeps the total for the ADS mount because it's locked behind a non GC related achievement. I've switched GC's and the count never reset.

    What sucks about that though is you have to catch back up to that number in your new GC for it to resume incrementing if you change GC's before getting the achievement. If someone has 150 wins and changes GC's, they'll have to get 151 more wins to see that counter go up again. I see no valid reason for it to work like that and my theory is it was an oversight from its implementation that should have been acknowledged as a problem and corrected when brought up. This didn't impact me personally, but anything that penalizes GC swaps by experienced players just perpetuates the imbalance in wait times and win rates.

    I switched GC's like 5 days ago I certainly haven't reached the amount of wins I had before but it's been going up just fine.

    They must have finally changed it then...back when Slaughter and the mount came out, this issue was outstanding for months.

    Hu, no, it is GC related. It's even stated in the achievement description : you have to bring a GC to 200 victories. If you have 195 with flames and 5 with mael you'll still be stuck @ 195. Unless they changed it, but I doubt that.
