PvP Scoring System Needs to Change

Instead of doing something almost all mmo's are doing. Be unique. Be innovative. Change this system that make people think that running from one node to the next without defending or anything will win the match. Make a system that allows PUGS to be rewarded by doing what they're minds tell them to do which is not PvP but go after the shiny points.

Have each class get the maximum reward for something different during PvP. There's five classes. GF, GWF, DC, CW, and TR. So assign something to them a primary way to get points and even a secondary based on what they do best.

GF: Defending Capped Node +300. So the team just capped a node. GF stays behind to defend the node because he's the tankiest class and can hold out the longest against any attack. Say every 2 mins he stays on the node he gets +300. So stay on the node gets you shiny points. Nice.

GWF: Kills gives +300. Simple enough. GWF is supposed to be killers. Each time they land the killing blow they get +300.

DC: Rescue heal and reviving fallen team member +300. Each member a DC revives gives him +300 but that can be difficult since people usually spam F. So each member a DC heals out of the red zone gives +300 as well.

CW: Assists +300. Simple like with GWF. Each assist gives +300. CWs has AoE so before they become the most well scored class and people cry again say the assist only counts if the person dies within 30s.

TR: Capping gives +300. Who else got stealth but TRs? So yeah capping is the obvious choice.

So now people are probably thinking. But Chizzah must we follow those specific rules the whole match? Must GFs and DCs not kill? Must TRs and GWFs not assisst? Should only TRs cap? NO. But when someone does something out of their role they only get +25/+50. So GF caps +25/+50. TR kills +25/+50. And so on.

You can still do what you want to do. But the way to get the best score is to play the role of the character you chose whether you made your tank a dps legend or not. Because if the system was changed to this getting points would actually mean helping the team get the win.
