- now that Season 3 is out, Blizzard seems to have made some improvements that
may help the arena system, but I am not sure how much based on the first few days
of play. The improvements include:
1. A personal rating system, you have
to actually win to get points with the team you are on, no more leaching. 2.
You have to obtain a high personal rating to get the best and most noticeable
items. 3. Season 1 rewards are now available on the battleground (BG) merchants,
and the BG rewards have also been upgraded to help level the playing field a bit
outside of arenas.
This is good in theory and will prevent people from
getting easy points by leaching, but it still favors the teams that are already
heavily geared. I did about 20 matches in the first few days and almost every
team had a large amount of full season 3 gear. We outplayed virtually every team
we were up against, but we were also outgeared every match, making it difficult
to get out of a par rating.
It is too soon to tell if the changes Blizzard
has made is actually going to make a difference for teams trying to work their
way up from the bottom. Teams that outgear you by two seasons should have their
arena point gain/loss skewed by the significant gear difference, regardless of
their rating. If you beat a team that outgears you by two seasons, you should
get way more points for the win.
