    Question.

    Anybody else think that KDA should be seen in your PVP profile?

    I mean I'd argue that people would care too much about that and change play styles for KDA instead of winning (greatly skewing job usage in the process), but then again they have achievements like Hounding The Rock that I made a thread about recently so it's not like there's no precedence for offering shinies that reward bad play

    They show your KDA right there....You went 13/0/23 so your kda is 36. Having a KDA listed isn't really necessary considering most matches only like 2 or 3 people get into double digit kills.

    counter point, while your argument holds some water you forget that alot of people would PLAY better instead of just being like *oh its just pvp hurr durr.* because having that negative KDA would be a point of shame.

    Over all kda as in your kda over your entire pvp career in every playlist, so like if you are lets say dying alot in FL it would reflect in the FL tab for everybody to see, if you die alot in CC it would show that in the CC tab along with your win rates, its really not that hard of a concept to grasp.

    So, what is more important, working with your team, or focussing on your kills? I'm just asking because you mention the word "shame". I'll look at stats, but in a different way - I take the jobs into consideration, so I will see how I compare to similar jobs in my category, and see if I held up, considering the rest of my team. I I did my bet, but was a bit lower in assists, heals , damage- well try to focus better next time.

    If a match went sideways - I'll also look at outliers- I have seen someone in FL with a high number of deaths and absolutely zero(0) player damage and some heals. Hmmm. OK, now I don't care why someone queues (tomes, EXP, whatever) but I would say that "shame" might be appropriate there.

    We'll probably never get an official KDA on Frontline or win% on competitive for the same reason we can't have the abacus adjacent water wings for pve. In the end negativity or perceived likelihood of it will keep us from getting things like this and it's a damn shame. I for one would love to have a gat-danged replay to see what part of the glowing pixels killed me in some of the more intense engagements. But that too could be used for harassment so kay sera~.
