Re: Can i earn a 20 kill badge or 4k damage badge on Arenas?

@felelmetesjonasBecause it's way easier to hit high dmg in Arenas. My friend hit 3.3 k dmg yesterday. Let's say he doesn't do as much dmg in BR when he plays with me, I carry him. He is around the same skill level as me, but struggles in BR. Our team had combined 8.5k dmg in 8 or 9 rounds. I also broke my dmg record in Arenas, it was easier

Maybe make separate dmg badges for Arena. That would be a good option, so you can show off where you got the badge from

    @BaldWraithSimp I find it the other way around. Hitting 4k in pubs is much much easier. I had to actually work extremely hard just for the 3.6k. Most peoples games only last around 3 rounds. So this does not allow a lot of time to stack damage with how fast the rounds are. So for that reason i feel that pubs is much easier there are a lot more people. 3 people can only get someone so much damage without going to the very last possible round. So its actually quite harder to obtain such kills r damage inside arena mode for these reasons compared to pubs.

    Just going to confirm the badge thingy:
    You can only get 4 badges from the arena's atm, so the damage / 20 kills badges are only possible to get via playing the battle royal game mode.
    (also confirmed by devs but cannot find the tweet)

    But I agree with @E9ine_AC its easier to get the damage badges in pubs, you have more people to kill / they have shields and knock down shields.
    You have to be really lucky & sweaty to get the 4k badge in arenas.

    @Zeelmaekers Yea i was quite shocked to hear my damage is up there with the big boys in the arena mode. Timmy dropping a 4k and another guy dropping a 5k. I figured most of them would be well beyond my numbers but hurtful truth of it this damage i obtained is very rare and wont happen often at all. To get to very final rounds will not happen often at all.

    @E9ine_AC The threshold of highest dmg is reduced I agree because of limited heals and rounds. And it will be much harder to hit 4k in that sense. And most matches finish way quickly for that to happen, even a 2k seems far from reach sometimes.

    But consider a average player like me, it's much easier to hit 3k plus as I have never crossed it before Arena was launched and it was much easier. It was just a poke battle for me from a distance, it was sweaty but also cheesy in a way.

    You are a far better player than I and I still managed to do just 400 off of your highest.

    My point was that Arena should not count towards normal dmg badges, rather to use different damage badges for it. Devs did say they will use the data to determine which badges to make.

    @BaldWraithSimpNo they should not they should have their very own badges for damage and kills. Some badges I would love to see I'll list below that I feel are important for this mode.

    Damage badges of course damage is damage and the higher skilled will work hard for such a badge as they do pubs. (Different color indicator)

    9 bomb badge this is killing all 3 people in all 3 rounds.

    Timer badge. Completely full-filled team wipe for xxx amount of time being done. So say you beat it in 7 mins or so there should be a badge for the quickest match done.

    Highest kill leader badge to show the highest amount of kills you have had. Same as the win streak but kill streak.

    These are a few i can think off hand to want to be earned in a competitive way. This will urge people to want to grind it to obtain special badges that even BR badges wont show.
