Territory war matchmaking

So i am in a guild with 159 million gp, and the last 2 territory wars we have gotten 180+ million gp guilds that take advantage of the system by having a couple members not join and in turn drop brackets and obviously they have stronger rosters and better mods we need a fix for this i think everyone should be automatically joined for a territory war, that would solve the dropping brackets issue so basically we just won't do a territory war when that happens cause it is no fun when it happens fix this please
  • Yep, we had the same thing, two times in a row. 23 and 25 mil GP more than us. So we're facing guilds around 130 mil GP which means we are facing teams that have mostly maxed out teams and we're still building. There really needs to be a 10 mil GP window for every guild until maybe you get to the highest tier. You just can't put guilds that are farming Sith Raid against guilds that haven't even gotten to the Heroic version, for example.

    I don't recall in all our TW's a time where we faced a guild with LESS GP than us. We might have, I just don't recall. However, facing <20+ mil GP guilds is a pretty regular thing, especially since we passed the 100 mil GP hurdle.

    Our 77m GP guild just got matched up with a 110m GP guild, so I totally understand your frustration. At the end of the day it's at least 1 free zeta mat. That's basically my entire attitude towards TW now unfortunately.


    This is another causality to not having a more limited window on TW. People just say, "screw it, just do whatever and we'll get a zeta anyway." because how are we expected to compete against another guild that has 20, 30, 40 mil GP more than us? (Regardless of how many players they don't have in the match.)

    Yeah but it's a guild effort, if half your guild doesn't show you should be penalized, we always have 49-50 members in ours, it was just a suggestion I'm just frustrated with better guilds cheating the system and dropping brackets when they should all be fighting a guild is as strong as your weakest link unless you leave them on the bench


    I think the dropping that many members part is a bit tough to see happening on a large scale. Basically you're screwing over your guild as a whole by telling people "hey you aren't competing in this one so we can win" and those players lose out on gear, currency, zetas, etc. just for a win? Some guilds might care only about the win, but I doubt it is widespread. If guilds are making their players do that, feel free to send me a message because we have an 11-12 guild alliance with plenty of room and don't tell players to lose out on rewards, just so we can get a "win", ever.
  • The matchmaking is pretty random for the TW. I have fought 6 TW with my current guild, 1 walk over, 3 close wins, 1 close loss and we got stomped on once as well.

    It is no fun to be the way smaller guild but in these cases, just accept your prizes and move on. At the higher levels you are in reality only fighting for 1 or 2 zeta's, the other prizes are fairly comparable

    Hopefully they will work out a decent measure to better match up opponents in the future

    Just my 2 cents mind
