Arena shards

What does it take to get moved into a new arena shard? At 3.2m gp i'm in a shard where everyone is over 1m higher gp. I've made it to top 200 1 time as it takes full effort to stay top 500. I see people with higher gp and weaker teams sitting top 100, so why am I in such an inflated shard?

    That date is when they joined gg.


    ^^^^ that right there, they all joined your shard around the same time as you did. they have concentrated on mods + gearing the right team plus the fact that most if not all of them will be part of an arena chat which helps


    What is an arena chat?

    Its where people on the same shard organize payouts and make sure no one hits someone who is close to theirs. Makes getting 1st every day much easier. Unless you are consistently top 50 I wouldn't bother trying to join unless you just want to get to know the players.

    You can put out a call in the forums for players, just use their in game names and see if anyone responds. Took me a couple of days when I tried to find my shard mates.
