It's Tera, it was asking to be broken.

This PvP season has been a torturous experience. Literal rage quitters, people sitting in spawn, etc. CC definitely has to be played in short bursts. For my own sanity.

My experience hasn't been too bad, though I've only been doing roughly 2 matches a day. I'm taking my time with this series.

I‘d suggest to check on the DMG dealt people do at the end. I had some people with literally 0 DMG done in ranked and it screams to me like people wintrading. Other times there are people much higher in rank but still dealing marginal dmg compared to others. Either those are wintraders too or ranked is a real mess The report system is so frustrating too! Reporting needs to be much more accessible.

Please tell me it's not casual, because that's incredibly sad if it's casual.

It's casual. I don't do ranked. Had two actual rage quitters in the past half an hour or so. One on the enemy team, one on my team.

That is so bloody stupid. Next time it happens, send in a report on the person. Getting banned over ragequitting or at least getting a warning over it would likely be enough to get them to stop.

I think a loss should be half a star and a win should be a whole star. To mitigate the pain of trying to climb in ranked, doing everything right but losing because you get persistently unlucky with team compositions.

I stop for the week once my tomes are capped.

I think there's a bonus for being on a win streak, but I'd much prefer a lessened penalty when you're on a losing streak.

Honestly, I think the lack of an actual chat system during both casual and ranked play really hurts the game mode. I do a lot of PvP in this game, as evidenced here:



Now, that's Frontlines - often an even more chaotic mess than CC at times. Though if things aren't going well I can give directions, take charge, offer tips. I'd like to think it's why I have a slightly higher win than loss rate.

I loathe the quick chat function. It feels so impersonal and doesn't allow me to give direct, detailed instructions that are specific to the needs of the match.

I also think we need an additional PvP roulette specifically for Rival Wings to encourage more participation there as well.
