PVP

Vanilla Ranking System Reimagined

Rated Battleground, World PVP, World Bosses, World PVP Objects

  • The PvP system is fully reworked into a linear progression: you are not forced into extreme time investment, but rewarded for giving maximum effort each game and playing to win.
  • Your rank comes from the highest rating you reach in Rated Battlegrounds.
  • A rank is never lost when your rating drops.
