Which is an effective DPS of zero if he's dead all the time because he can't pull right or wipes the group because he keeps smacking mezzed mobs or whatever other trainwreck his lack of skill will eventually cause. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

When I play my cleric I'll ask the tank how much hp he has.. but that's just for CH vs Sup heal purposes. It's only later that I judge you =p

What a novel idea. It was all too often on live that I felt the urge to instruct a cleric on who to cheal (me).

I think people clearly meant a ranking system on measurable stats, and not "skill" or other subjective factors. I mean, you can't measure how good a player is at playing since play style is a matter of opinion, so why would anyone even bring that up in this post? Thats like me strolling in here and assuming what they really want is a ranking system that evaluates us by how yummy we think cookies are...

Soo, some rogue would be higher in rank than me coz he has 189+ str? That's kinda dumb coz 188 is the best option given availability of shaman buffs..

I believe Magelo was sorted on HP by default.

Similarly, ranking players by measurable stats would be as useful as ranking people by how yummy they think cookies are. Ranking highest by stats if you aren't a good player of your class and/or the game means nothing, so why bother with it at all?
