PVP achievements need adjustment

Warlord III - 2100 + rank #250
Warlord II - 2100 + rank #100
Warlord I - 2100 + rank #25

Reality.... to get #250 rank you need a score of around 2500 or more. There's no such thing as a score of 2100 and rank #250. This makes getting the Warlord or higher achievements nearly impossible unless you sit all day, every day and spend ironite to keep battling all the time. I routinely have 2300-2600 scores and never make it above a rank of #600 unless I spend ironite to keep battling, but the rank with drop to #1700 or lower within 20 minutes of stopping even if I have ZERO battles.

I've actually done just that.. sat and continually refilled SOW and kept battling.. got to King III rank #22... but that lasted maybe an hour and ranking changed dramatically even though I had only 1 or two defensive losses (and no other fights)

Kudos to those that spend all their time refilling SOW and fighting, but is the point of the game to reward those players getting the massive ironite refills which allows them to ensure they monopolize the ironite refills?

Trust me the amount of ironite you get as a reward for winning in the arena is no where close to the amount of ironite you spend to get those high ranks in the arena.

My point is.. the achievements are impossible to get as they currently stand.

I've gotten them, and the reason I did is that I didn't need to hold it until the end of the week. A few of the events saw me climb as high as the top 10 - early on, at least.

Basically start early and you can easily hit top 100 and hold it long enough to get the achievements.

have to disagree here, i'm in the top 25 for months now and i seldom refill at all. sure if i go for podium or top 5 i have to refill a lot but for top 25 no refills are needed if you have a good offense and an okay defense.

you just cannot expect this with mediocre attacking and defending teams. and ofc you need to have the right toons for the current meta....

I don't know..

I battle all week. Never letting SOW sit when they are there. Win almost all of my battles, have about a 20% defense win rate.. maxed toons - both talismans and skill shards - Never really get above #300-400 unless I refill SOW and keep going. I sit at something like #600... then 2 minutes later without ANY battles (either initiated or defensive) I'm at #1400.

It's been this way for weeks.

I casually stay in the top 50 these days and I haven't needed any refills just yet unless its on a day like today where I'm lingering between around 51 and 49. I fight my battles from the bottom of the list to the top so that my points swell up in a decent amount. It gets tricky on the last day because I'm trying to figure out who I know I can beat but when they have combination shields like thorn+void, things get more intense.

My hold rate averages 25% and my win rate is 95%

The gist of my initial post is that REALISTICALLY Warlord III should be 2100 and rank ~#1000 not #250. #250 would be more along the lines of Warlord I.

All the devs need to do is look at scores and ranking for players. They'll see NO ONE with around 2100-2300 points is ANYWHERE near rank #250 let alone rank #25. Either the descriptions need adjustment or the requirements do.

I can agree with this though. With as difficult as it is to reach 250 by the end of the week, I feel like Warlord III should be put at 2500. Heres what I think.

Warlord III: 2500
Warlord II: 1000
Warlord I: 500
King III: 100
King II: 25
King I: 10


That way, more people can benefit from better rewards and still would have more of a goal to strive for. And everyone above 250 won't feel like their time is wasted when they can only get as high as Duelist I

they adjusted the point system some months ago, that's why these things doesn't fit well together. we get much more points now than intended.
before it was more in line with the divisions, but the pointsystem itself was horrible, so i prefer it this way by far. loosing 20 points from a broken defense was a pain in the ass.
but yeah they might check it, but it's no high priority task i'd say ;)

MUCH more realistic in my opinion.

It's really annoying to win every battle, have a decent defense but NEVER be close to the achievements because I don't play the game 24/7 or spend $50 in Saturday to reach higher rankings.
