Curse

I'm starting to test my melee Ranger in TA, and I had some success once I found a group that was mildly ok. Trouble is, I can't really understand the score window. Can someone give me a hand with this?

This was in the fire level, where you gain as many kills as possible. They had a pretty good healer, a Mo/Me. We were getting crushed at first (one guy decided he didn't have to listen and charged right off, dooming himlelf), but we bearly managed to get one more kill before the clock ended. Lucky!

This poor team just got crushed. In the Ice Cavern with the priests. I managed to kill a Warrior by myself, so I know they were not a good team. But, they seemed like they had better cohesion than we did. I dunno.

For posterity. I was the R/W. The N/Mo was not a healer, but was some sort of n00b. We got 5 cosecutive wins, 3 flawless (one of the wins was a test run for some guild testing their MM build, and my team STILL decided to rush the mob of 20ish minions). We finally found a team that was worth something and got wiped out. We held our own for about a minute, then we dropped like flies.

So? Are these good score cards for not having a healer? Or, should I be looking elsewhere to figure out if my build is working or not?

Youre supposed to rush minion factory builds. The longer you wait, the more minions theyll make.

Unless you're lucky enough to have edge of extinction, frozen soil, or some good AoE at least

I would recommend waiting on the kill count map....

If you won it's a good score, if you lost then it isn't.

those dont really mean anything, you win you win, you lose you lose, why worry about scores

That's what I kept telling my team! Did they listen? Nooooooo..... Oh well, they were self saccing faster than my team mates were spawning, so it was all good.

Ok, so Score Cards are a general waste of time in 4v4? Ok, I'll ignore them, thanks.

I don't think he was asking if he should pay attention to the score charts.. but how to read them, which sadly, I don't know too well because I mostly PvE!

"I can't really understand the score window."

SO instead of saying, don't pay attention to it, 4v4 doesn't matter, explain how to read it if you know how, I wouldn't mind knowing actually either!

its quite easy to understand. Its a graph showing the total percentage of life in your party

For Example: If the bar drops half way either all your players are around half hp, or half are dead and others are full hp. Basically if bar is half way the totall life of your party is 50% of normal

Note : DP isnt calculated in the Health score chart
