    I am playing on one of smallest servers Tegan and balancing of PVP is a serious issue, and i know that this has been discussed too many times to talk about but when teams can capture 3 flags in 1-2 mins there is seriously something wrong. My suggestions are
    (1) no Team groups (except events)
    (2) Use total honor to evenly distribute honor in pvp (not rank)
    (3) Distribute classes where possible
    (4) Distribute damage/HP through teams
    Prioritize these in order forfill 2 before 3 and before 4 etc...

    This would be a rather simple modification to make I am not saying this will work but i think the developers need to start thinking outside the box

    I agree with #3 for sure, no doubt. I've been in 5v5 where my team had not DKs or SMs, but the other team had 2 or 3 of the aforementioned classes. I'm not sure if I understand #2 right, but I wish matchmaking would pair ranks better. I'm usually put with lower ranks compared to the opposing team, resulting in more losses.

    I can see #1 being an issue at times but group PvP shouldn't be prohibited, just the matchmaking system needs to find better counterparts. #4 would, in my mind, take too long to calculate and process an evenly equated match. People want quick matches to go, not wait another 10 minutes for subtle 'improvements'. Players are always registering or cancelling so that would be chaotic for the system to handle.

    what i was trying to say with #2 is its basic mathematics each player has total honour, in my cased its about 2million, so if my team all had 2million in 5v5 total honour would be 10million therefore the opposing team should have about 10million honour points.
    Ba_dum_tss i am not sure which server you are playing but tegan is small and sometimes you can wait for 10mins to 30mins for a match. Registering teams of 5 marshalls already throws the pvp game out of balance. I believe that this is a massive problem in the game

    For the most part, that would be a good idea. But let's say there was a total of 7M honor on both sides - red team has field marshal and 4 legionnaires while blue team has 5 ardent knight of the orders. That's where the potential issue may occur, and believe me, this will happen so 'rank' should have a part in matchmaking.

    sure possibly, i dont know i have not seen that before however on tegan crossbower our first grand marshall i would really hate to go against him even if there is 4 legionaires..
    But sure i can see your point
