But it should, according to the developer's blog and forum post about the random queue. They talk about how pvp used to give 3000 rAD, for the first two matches, and now it would give 5000 rAD for the first match. Except it didn't. It gave 300 rAD. Has anyone received 5000 rAD from their first pvp match of the day?

If the community has no idea, maybe a dev can respond?

I can't get over the GF with permanent 100% life. Me with my 2.5K IL, 15K power, hitting them over and over and over again, and not seeing their life move at all. Then turning around and getting 1 combo-shot (knockdown+followup hit). Fun times, fun times. Not.
-
I guess I have finally arrived. Was in a match and was told "@#!$ you" by a hunter I had just killed. That hasn't happened in... ever. But now I'm doing enough to enrage the other team, so that is a step in the right direction B)
-
Well I did it. Finally got enough glory to get the prestige bracers. Used them to replace my elemental burning bracers. and....my item level went up by about 7. They are nice to have, but at this point, I'm not feeling ready to grind out for the prestige helmet to replace my lionsmane helmet until I get my artifacts up to…
-
Well, I am getting close. I am up to 17.7K glory and 620 seals of triumph, so just a bit longer I can get the prestige bracers. After that, I am getting the impression in my matches that my biggest issue is my artifacts and artifact gear. Given they are only purple, I am saving up for the double refinement even later this…
-
good suggestions. The past couple of days I have been pretty lucky. Got 2 wins and 2 losses, but with enough points to get some rewards, so now I am up to about 580 seals and about 14.5K glory, which means it is just a glory grind now to get the prestige bracers :) I looked at the Oghma artifact. It looks very nice but is…
-
heh, th Heh. That's a bummer. Managed to not get kicked in two more matches :). Lost one, won one. So ever inching closer to.... something.
-
Rough day. Did 2 domination matches. First one against a premade, we lost 1000-60. But they didn't let us cap. Despite our pleas, they just killed us whenever they saw us. I guess they needed to up their kill stats. No rewards from that one. Second match we were winning 850-350 when suddenly my loading screen appeared and…

Interesting. I haven't even started Maze Engine, but it did start in one of these recent patches post-Maze Engine. I had the imperial set long before maze engine and it never did this. So something in that broke some of the visuals. My guess is that they hired Quentin Tarantino to come up with a new visual effect for the…

possibly, but bleeding is not confined to your enemies. I find that when I cast Astral Shield (I am DC), which is a big defense area on the ground, if my companion is in the cast area, then he also has blood explode from him and fly into me. Very weird.
-
I am sure. I took all my gear off and put them on one at a time to see when that animation would appear. It only appeared when I completed the imperial set, all 3 pieces. Remove any of the pieces and it stopped. I guess it may be a bug, I have never even owned a lifedrinker enchant.
-
Well I got to the point where I had the imperial set, refined to blue. I have the lantern (purple), waters (purple), and DC sigil (blue). The DC sigil and the Imperial Rod are ready to refine to purple, but I need to save up for some preservation wards. I have the three shards to make an elven enchant, but lack the coal…
-
Yeah I'm done. I've got better things to do with my life and my money than pay to win or grind for 3-4 years to try to become competitive. Bye
-
I agree. I think tenacity is a made-up stat that actually does nothing, but creates another thing to grind for or spend money for. I went from 1K tenacity to 4K tenacity and noticed 0 difference in my survivability and/or control resistance, and/or damage output. The biggest hint is how vague the tool tip is, something…
-
Pfft. All you need to mitigate that damage is about 200 tenacity. /sarcasm
-
To be honest, I don't think tenacity is very effective by itself. I have almost 4K tenacity, but my ilvl is around 2.2K, and I still get chain-stunned killed and one or two shot just as much as I did when I had about 300 tenacity.
-
I envy you sir.
-
I don't know if I can keep this up. I am trying to build up feytouched and elven battle. But it is hard to continue to queue and know that you will be 1-2 shot even though tenacity is approaching 4K. Its still going to be a bit before I can get those up to high level enchantments. My runes will have to sit at R7 for even…
-
Okay, got Lionsmane necklace which puts me at 3.1K tenacity. Just need 6K guild marks and I can get the Lionsmane belt. But would it be better to keep my artifact belt that gives +2 STR and give up the 490 tenacity from the belt?
-
thanks, I am trying to document what it is like for a non-hardcore player to figure things out along the way, and hopefully journey from beginner to glorious mediocrity! o:)
-
All great info, Thanks! An update on my slow grind through pvp. I now have 2 Lionsmane rings. That has raised my tenacity from about 2K to almost 3K. While not a huge difference, I would say that adding that tenacity has improved things marginally. I would say I've moved from the 5th percentile to maybe the 10-15th…
-
Well, I got one of the lionsmane rings. My tenacity is now 2.4K with an ilvl of 2.1K. Still having trouble getting that to rise very quickly. Not noticing too much difference yet. Have done 5 matches in a row, all defeats, all getting chain stunned until I die and doing little to no damage against foes. There must be a…
-
So if I read this right, I would be better off exchanging my 130-140 pve gear on the right side (neck, belt, rings) for pvp gear from the vendor (which is 90-105'ish if I remember right) because it would be better to have more tenacity than it would be to have a bit more crit/armor pen, etc.? Is that right? I do have a lot…

Had an interesting domination match last night. We were clearly overmatched by a group that was BiS 4-5K, as they were just 1-2 shotting all of us, but I don't think they were a pre-made as they were from different guilds. Anyway, instead of the usual just get roflstomped until the end, they actually stopped attacking when…

Is Condemned worth it? According to tool-tip, it says that once a target has 5 encounter powers cast on it, they become condemned and take increased damage for a time. But most targets (pve and pvp) are dead by the time you hit them with 5 encounters. Is this primarily intended for dungeon bosses?
-
Before Mod 6, getting extra glory from pvp dailies also helped gear up faster. Since mod 6, I have not seen any extra glory with those dailies. Does it come back at lvl 70, or is it gone for good?
-
On a somewhat related note, I've noticed that the two PvP dailies do not give extra glory anymore, just AD. Does that change at lvl70, where they start to give about 500 glory for finishing the daily?
