One other thing - I disliked that fact that the box gave the BiS gear. It basically bi-passed the seals of triumph you needed, the black ice and everything. All if you got lucky. I think it would have been better to offer bound unified elements or even the non-upgraded gear. Simply because this is one of the last things which rewards being deep into both the PVE and PVP. And I would hope that if you are releasing new best in slot PVP gear, you make sure it ties with professions. So if e.g. the legion rings could be upgraded to double slot with a Tier 3 jewelcrafting result or similar.
imho duo or even 3 would be ok, but not more, but it should add rating for matchmaking so it looks up tougher opponents, i pvp solo, but pvping with friends is fun, and thats what gaming should be about
A competitive even its not about having fun. Its about doing your best and while at it trying to have fun. Because trying your best with nothing to lose has all the requirements to be fun.

very dissapointing. reward almost only for pvp premades abusers or exploiters, or both together. Werent they promise tokens after event? Or tokens are only for top 40 too?
whats the point try, when you refuse join exploiter guild or buy broken stuff?

LoL puts 1~3(or it was 1~2, havent played for a long time) in soloq, and thats the biggest competitive game in the world, we just need to get more ppl in pvp and adjust rating for ppl who duo
Oh - one last thing - It is a shame that the rewards weren't given to the best people in each paragon path as originally promised. I think that was a good way to reward those who take the less optimised path
Could've resulted in ppl respeccing to the less used path after getting rank. Also, players could try to get the prize going for useless paths, which would fill pvp with weak toons, ruining games, just cause that way, even with bad performance, a non-used paragon would still get the prize.
I would just add rough iLvL brackets. Like 1000-2000, 2001-3000, 3001-4000 and 4k+

typical noob answer. you are just too bad to get there and cant admit it, so everybody who is better than you is abuser/premade/exploiter/cheater whatever

we dont have enough players for that, queues would be like 2 hours. i think there is a bracket, split is around 2400~2500, i started below it and ended ncl past that point, there is some difference, but its not a hard bracket, or maybe it was just that at start of ncl there were more ppl playing pvp and queue had more ppl to chose from and make better teams

Good point with the respecing, that's why it would be better to reward top 5% instead of top 40 of each class. This way it would be a bit harder to cheat, because if there's small group of players using specific path 5% from that group will be less than 40 players.
As for the Itemlvl bracket. It wont help, players will abuse it. Besides there's insane difference between 1k and 1999. same with 2k and 2999.

what a joke your answer is. obviously i have bad gear. all is very simple. Exploit, abuse, play for single reward as premade or make yourself a leadership army. Unless you have one of these, you have no chance to qualify for even the slightest piece of reward. you only feed players, which have some of the things mentioned above. but i m sure burkaanc know it very well
f2play, legit, 1 character/class, should be top40 if didnt fall out in last 20 hours, was around 30 since had time for only some 3 games a day for the last week, played some 100 matches over ncl

problem is what staff you considered as legit. if you have 6-7 alts with leadership to feed 1 main, its not huge leadership army, but still big leadership army. i hope there will be extra tokens for many characters to get their pvp armors. for characters 1-200 pages, 1-300pages, even 1-400pages. now you are once again punished for playing more than one character actively. So everybody now needs 7 alts to feed one active character to qualify for pvp reward? where is promise to reward every paragon?
so leadership army now has legendary weapons and lvl 90+ artifacts, nice to know, mained every one of those characters for some time except my cleric, but ofc you know better
not my problem you cant accept the fact that it is possible to get the rewards by skill, cause that would ruin your delusions of beeing an uber 1337 player who is only held back by those damn abusers

and what? if you play since beta, you can have great stuff on many characters. there were times of very cheap artifact equipment enchantments. there are times with cheap runestones....
if you work systematically, you can have everything through the time, when the window of opportunity is opened. Remember botted cheap peridots? etc... Now tell newbies they can have this all as you after some time. they probably cant. dont fool me
and if i said i have beard(i do) they would say my beard deflect enemy attacks making my character immortal, and allowing me to roundhouse kick stuff with my beard for a 1HKO
getting gear is a matter of few mods, we have some ppl in guild that joined at the end of mod5 and they already have decent gear, if i wasnt so lazy i would have 2+ bis characters now, what they ask is for any new payer to have same gear as players who play since launch

said one of the two defenders of last module. how funny. its a lot harder than was it before, supposed to be quite a opposite right? cryptic is unable to catch decent drop environment
I think that when they said "early week" they meant "late next week".
Be patient and wait. "Prizes" means that armoured lizard, we will get it eventually and i'm sure that most players in top 40 have a better mount. So no hurry. For most top rankers it's just a "status" mount.
It's a mount that I want and I can't wait to have it. If CM says "early next week" and we're wednesday already I feel legitimated to ask about the prizes. But no worries, I am patient.
I am pretty sure the NCL champion's mount has been replaced with.....

Dear Cryptic what the hell is taking so long with the NCL prizes. if you don't want to give them out don't offer them. If there is a problem let us know.
DO NOT tell us ( last week) you'll get them early next week and then give us absolutely nothing. that is ridiculously messed up. what could possibly so difficult in handing out a mount????

Where are those mounts, Stumslinger? Any word on them?
I'm sure the mount will come today after patch!
