Congrats to D3!

So you've got to give D3 props, you may hate what they do, but at the end of the day they know their player base better than we do. They make a change the majority of the high end pvp players hate, and look what happens? Scores are ridiculously high across all shards, and people are dropping shields at an even higher rate than before. 

When you realize they're here to see how much money they can milk from you each time they make a drastic change, it's easy to see that they're really not incompetent buffoons at all, but masters at manipulating the player base to to play and spend more just to keep getting the same fix they used to with much less effort. Great job guys!

    It was also a new release event. They are always higher scoring events.

    Not 2100 for T10 in S1 higher scoring, they aren't.

    S1 frontrunners are already at 1400 in Nightcrawler.

    Don't fool yourself, people ARE hopping like crazy.

    So 2542pts-1422pts is a typical t10 range in CL5  for a new release event? Where even the winner gets no 4*.

    No.  I forgot per the data I got that you were in 5. Nobody ever went into 5 before but now we are forced to due to the CPs. Only reason why people dropped down.

    As crazy as scores got in s5, I think we'll see s4 get pretty nutty too. Losing 5cps to take it a bit easier is pretty attractive now.

    Strange, I had just the opposite impression in "The Hunt", got t50 easily when I usually struggle to get t100 for a new release event. Do people not want Nightcrawler or was everybody busy with PvP?
