I am quite grateful for that and don't miss the death bracket days of top 10 being 1100. Anyone else have a similar experience? (Mostly a question for three star teams, I know this is still a rough change for two star teams. But I would be interested to hear from two star teams as well).

Tharos wrote: In my alliance, shorly after the introduction of true healing, there were no change: people were trying to do with it. Now, about two weeks later, 5 people left. 3 or 4 people achieve the same points in pvp as before true healing (guess what? They have maxed Daken and/or Patch, and they are enjoing the game much more, before they face less competition in leaderboard), and the other barely play. As people can't play as often, they are choosing pvp instead of pve. Before True Healing, the alliance was about #150 in each pvp, and #200 in pve. Now, we are #250 in pvp and #450 in pve. Nice job. (of course, it means that other people/alliances took our position, so they must be handling true healing better than us: true healing might have been a nice change for them, but it clearly did not for us)

Could it also be due to, I don't know, just not as many people playing anymore to challenge your rank? I got rank 18 from 600 odd points in the PvP before last, never gotten above 70 before then. I have 5 Max 2* roster.

I have 5 Max 2* roster. I know what you mean, but before the healing change I was getting put into a bracket of lots of high level 3 star teams due to sharding presumably. I am saying that it seems like since the update, the brackets have been way easier for me. So maybe that indicates there may have been an unannounced change to sharding that came with the update? Just speculation, which was why I was wondering what other players were experiencing.

D3P isn't small - its' office is in USA and Japan, publishes a lot of games, and is owned by Namco Bandai. Namco as most gamers would know, make the very popular Tekken series of games for arcade and consoles (with many many more games under their belt).
