Harsh way to say it, but I agree with this opinion regardless of the wording.

ladderized?
But he is correct, most teams are PUGs.

I don't understand... fame is how many wins you have, nothing else.

What I think you're getting at: you want to be 'famous' for 'kicking ass' in Tombs, and being able to flaunt a high rank.
Sorry to boycott, but the last thing we need right now is more elitism in tombs. Let the people who don't PvP incredibly often (and don't have organized guilds to party with) show their colours, then current organized guilds will see their competence and invite them.
And, if you want to be 'famous', join a prestigious guild and play with them often in prestigious events against other guilds. There isn't another way short of leading a new guild with a powerful team you can prove yourself in by beating other good guilds in PvP (whether tombs or GvG).

But I'll say with certainty, fame is going to remain the amount of victories you have in tombs, and not anything else.

Hence the certain X "Enter Missions with group".
PuGs won't be on ladder

There is no reason NOT to have a tombs ladder. Just added incentive for some people to play it.
I sorta see your point about elitism, and I agree, it's stupid, but having a ladder won't change the fact that groups will ask for "R3 or higher only please"

Thing is, the people who advertise this "R3 only" are the PuGs. THere the elitists because "I have an emote and you don't"

This ladder is pretty much for the people (friends or guilds) who like to do Tombs to have something to be proud of

Anything other comments, problems, suggestions?

Ive stated this many times and I think it would help tombs a lot.

Leagues.
You would have rookie, minor, junior, major, veterans and professional leagues.
You qaulify for a league by your rank.
So a rank 0-2 would be rookie league on up to rank 12 for professional leagues.

Player could join any league dispite thier rank, but for incentive, lower ranked players would not recieve any added bonus for playing in leagues above them and higher ranked players would recieve dimishing rewards for playing in leagues below them.
So a rank 9 player would recieve no fame, faction or items at the end in a rookie league. This would be to keep high ranking players from "farming" newbies.

I think this would help players to combat on equal level.
So getting run over would be a little more difficult for newer pvp'ers or you can usually expect a challenge if your a vet.
Plus, there would come a point when rank farming tactics would lvl off and fail to reward players that dont play complex and adapting builds.

Im not certain about a tombs ladder, but I do agree that more than one ladder would be nice for competition.
There have been lots of suggestions like GvG matches that require havesting and managing resorces or best 2 out of 3 deathmatchs with skill reajustment between matches.
With more oppertunitys to be in a top 10 ranked ladder I think maybe more guilds would compete in GvG.

Just an Idea, maybe it should say in your Guild Status how many times your guild has won hall of heroes, would be a nice idea. Ascended Valour has won 7 times, but nothing to show for it except photos.

When you enter tombs it makes no secret of the fact it is a TOURNAMENT! So I agree; some sort of Tombs ladder certainly is needed.

only tomb ladder i think it would be a good idea would be an individual ladder, for top 1000 players with most fame, have a ladder like the guild ladder, but it shows the fame of a person, and if your the leader of the party in a tombs group, and it's a pug, maybe it should say the there ranking.
