What's more important ?

[smokeyh2 1,512]

 i was just wondering what you guys think is more important ?

do you consider your experience score more important than your K/D score ?

their are times i look at my K/D score and see it has dropped slightly and i get a bit annoyed about it

but then again if i dont play as much then my experience score wont go up

 

i see a lot of players with lower k/d scores but big experience scores so obviuosly they dont worry about it

as much as i do

 

my thoughts anyway

[kayitsiz 621]

I usually drop my K/D while following some hunt so...

I guess experience score is more important

[DESTROYER_13 1,019]

K/D doesn't give benefit.

 

XP gets you to a higher rank.

[Phoenix.Raised 5,992]

Tanki could do with a new, more relevant rating stat TBH.

Developers implemented DM ratings few days ago. Maybe DM ratings are the best indicator of what kind of a player is. Good or bad. It is difficult to be alone on the battlefield, you are against everyone and everyone is against you.

 

I don't find K/D ratio as something important. More like a thing to praise with.

 

My K/D ratio went down, because when I was about to rank up at Generalissimo, I mostly played with Isida. And everyone is targeting Isidas. Or maybe I'm just not good with Isida...I don't know.

experience gives you a good KD, my thoughts anyways

Not necessarily. For example Isida. You can get a lot of XP by healing teammates and to have low K/D ratio. Many times I was first in my team, but I had many deaths and just a few kills.

[Phoenix.Rising 2,519]

Don't really care about my ratio of 0.64. If it drops to 0.5, I will have the same reaction. It's not as if I get a prize for best K/D.

[beaku 2,656]

Well, I used Isida and Wasp for a large part of my career so it's no surprise my KD is what it is... :p In the end, you decide what's important for you. If you want to keep up your KD, you'll have to change your gameplay style.

It doesn't really matter I feel.

 

If you have high KD, you wont earn much XP, but from having a very low KD, I can tell you one thing, that is that I earn very little XP too

I earn more Xp playing with firebird than with Isida, so no.

Whut? :mellow:

That's because your Firebird is M2 and you're expected to use Isida M3 at your rank. Also, either way, I saw you having a poor K/D ratio at polygon CP. You multing fequently over there in battles?

K/D is not important! Better is to fix tankionline and remove modules! That's useless!

[The-Operator219 1,929]

Both are prestigious, but I prefer to be judged based on my combination.

[fordmustang12345 3,910]

I don't care about my D/L much .I just care about how much EXP I earn per battle (which right now is an average of 300-1000 per battle) but I don't mind when I finish a battle and see that I have a positive DL

[Ninja 10,468]

I'm gonna focus on experience until I get to Gismo, then I'll start working on my K/D, STGs don't help!

[ghost-guns 1,486]

A lot of people have an inflated K/D because they bought at low ranks.

 

Tanki should remove it so we can focus on enjoying why we actually play the game.

Idk why everyone says "positive D/L"  :mellow:

Literally all the D/Ls are positive (above zero) except the ones which divide by zero and those don't count cause that's illegal  :P

What you mean is a D/L over 1  :ph34r:

Pls no hate I get salty about this stuff k  :ph34r:  :ph34r:

 

And to answer the question, I really don't think K/D matters much, especially in team battles. Being able to cooperate with your team and achieve whatever purpose that battle has is much more important than K/D. Also, some equipment is naturally going to have a higher K/D - an Isida/Wasp will generally have a lower K/D than Shafters. Some turrets, like Thunder, are especially suited to kill-stealing, and others aren't. That shows nothing of your skill and of your ability to do well in team battles.

D/L is actually the second most important thing in DM battles .like you could have 40 kills and be in 5th place while the guy in first has only 35 kills .but he has a D/L of (for instance) 35.00 (he's only been killed once) and you have a D/L of 0.40 (you've been killed way more times than you've gotten kills ) I know.this kind of thing has happened to me a few times....

I don't find this as true.  it completely depends on the player and if you play pro pass or normal drugging battle, against those who saved their drugs for gismo or those who consistenly buy and always will.

eg. I used wasp and rail as my sole combo for nearly all of my game time.  it is the most fun combo in my opinion and I have ranked as fast as anyone else. I ranked to my current rank around 3 weeks ago and I am now 3/4 of the bar to gismo with a decent kd considering I rarely use a health box....  in xp bp pro pass battles I love having a decent kd but I like capping equally as much because its fun and camping gets borings,  sure its fun to torment noobs by camping.... and a lot of players who have a bad kd but are very good players have just over time gotten better...you learn more from failure than from succeeding consistently.   Exp =  consistently learning and acting with the best decision no matter the game type,  where as kd is more learn when to shoot and when no to expose urself.  that statement purely is for people who don't drugg constantly because lets face it if you can pop a healthpack every few seconds who cares about hiding when you've m4 everyones destroyed anyway

[CooperO 7,956]

Impossible, the one with the most kills is always in first position, regardless of players' K/Ds in that battle.

Aaaah DM battles in particular.  :P
