Could HCS please look into why Dominance ticks are no longer counted toward players who are alone, or with guildmates, in their ladder?

 

This started a few weeks ago. We still receive tokens.

 

Do we cease being Dominant solely because no one else will join the same Ladder?

This is just another example of why a banded ladder is PHALE and why I opted out once I attained my dominance medal... The ladder is incredibly broken imho, and should have been left in its original state.  Some say it was not competitive and you couldn't make it on there without cheating, but I did on a regular basis, and I abhor cheating, and as such would never do it.  And can't people cheat here, as well?   Please address this soonest, Bovines, make PvP glorious again.

We'll be looking into PvP to get it back to being brilliant fairly soon. It's a big update though so we'll be discussing it and taking our time.

I like this very much, please take your time, many of us waiting for years so waiting weeks or months is no problem for having pvp brilliant, addictive, active and fun back, thank you

Personally you shouldn't get dominance if you maintain the starting PvP rating..

Take out XP loss for the ladder right now and you'll see a boost in participation.. My band won't get any new players because of the smashing that does occur when someone new jumps on.. Ill get new competitors that ask why im attacking for such little pvp rating (they are probably sad about the XP loss).. Sorry but why would I use 10 stamina hits if I can use 100. If I'm going to get any rating, I'm gonna try to take the most to help continue my dominance...

But let me just say a lot of the complaining new comers are players sitting in epics or just not using the combat and buff system properly.. Hate hourly attacks? Get Deflect.. And that's just one useful buff out of the many, many others that could help you out..

So some simple fixes that could help add some fun to the ladder..

Reward tokens/dominance for activity.. If I don't win some outgoing attacks, I shouldn't be rewarded tokens no matter what place I landed at the reset.. Dominance should only be rewarded if you go above the starting PvP rating of 1000

Get rid of XP loss on the ladder.. Would be a great place to try out the removal of XP loss.

How can you be dominant if you haven't done anything, please keep it as it is, to gain something you should earn it. The fact you are earning pvp tokens for doing nothing is both a fallacy and devalues these tokens even further.

getting dominance when alone is not good, you need fighting for dominance with other players, not alone

 

you want to try out the removal of XP loss then no problem bro, go to arena and gvg, there you have no xp loss but I see activity there low

I couldn't have said it any better myself, Padawan, and Dav...  I know this will take a lot of blood, sweat and tears for you guys, but it will be all so very worth it in the end.  I so miss having people to play tag with... (BigGrim, I am about to level out of your range... Please try to keep up :) )

I beg your pardon. Why am I not dominant if I sit alone on a Ladder and nobody is willing to play? Isn't that the definition of dominance? ANYONE can join but choose not to for whatever reason. That is NOT my fault, but my dominance, sir! And yes I could care less about the currently worthless tokens.

Ok great! But why not leave it the way it was until a few weeks ago? Why the change?  Why am I rewarded only half(I only get tokens, not ticks toward my medal)? What is more disturbing is that this was done without any notification!

As far as I am aware, we have not touched that. It was not on our discuss updates which would be why there's no notification. Sounds like an error. Will ask Zorg about it.

Thank you. FS‑016136: Submitted 23 days ago is the ticket I sent about the issue that has gone completely unanswered.
