Ranked PvP Official Guide

[Remiem]

Welcome to Ranked Pvp!

This new PvP mode adds a bit more competition to the already competitive AL PvP Scene. Improve your rank to climb the leaderboards and face tougher and tougher opponents in both Standard and Honor PvP.

Requirements:

• Ranked PvP and Ranked Honor PvP require max level.
• Ranked Honor PvP requires wearing a full set of honor gear, and only honor pets are allowed.

How to Play

Queue for Ranked PvP or Ranked Honor PvP by opening the PvP menu from the world map.




Matches are 3v3, with one player of each class on each team. Your team and opponents will be assigned by the system, based on your current ranking. This may take a while or even not be possible based on availability of other players around your ranking, so be patient!




When you queue, a clock indicator shows over your mana/xp bars. You can tap this to open the queue state window.




When a match is found, a sound and cutscene will play. If you are in a zone, the queue state window will appear, and a ready timer starts.
You have 90 seconds to mark yourself ready to play. For Ranked Honor PvP, you must be wearing your honor gear to mark yourself ready.




If you do not mark yourself ready in time, you are removed from the queue, and the other players return to the front of the queue. Once everyone readies, you are sent to your match, and can start immediately. Ranked PvP follows standard 3v3 Deathmatch rules, so you'll want to work together as a team to play both offense and defense against your opponents.

Please Note:

• If your team leaves the match before it is over, it is considered a loss.
• If the other team leaves, but you stay, the staying team wins.
• If both teams stay, standard deathmatch rules apply.

When the match ends, rank changes are applied based on winners, losers, and difference in team ranks. You must play several matches to be eligible for the leaderboards. Your rank will decay over time if you do not play frequently enough.

Leaderboards

There are separate leaderboards for both Ranked PvP (Standard) and Ranked Honor PvP. At the end of a season, seasonal banners will be granted to the overall top 10 and badges for class top 50 which last for the duration of the next season. PvP seasons match the overall Arcane Legends season and refresh quarterly (every 3 months).
