The biggest imbalance which has ever existed in the game is still an issue which has yet to be addressed. Believe it or not, the imbalance is not related to any specific class or level group, and devastates players of every level and every class.

What is it? The 2v2 battle system. I challenge anyone to find a bigger imbalance than a normal 2v2 player being forced to fight two opponents solo due to an inconsiderate partner. Despite the fact that it affects more players (often more often) than any other imbalance in the game, it has to date received attempts at correction.

My advise is simple, penalize all players who leave a 2v2 battle before dying. They would receive 50% of the normal credits and experience for their next 5 battles, as well as receiving 0 battle tokens for any wins in that frame. Faction influence will still be earned normally as I see no reason to penalize the faction for the misbehavior of the player.

I acknowledge that some players are forced to leave a battle due to lag, but if their lag is a continuous issue for them such that they can not complete the majority of their 2v2 battles then they should not be in the 2v2 system due to the harm that they are doing to their partners. If this is still the biggest argument against the implementation of the penalty system, then you can have the game monitor the Ping for each player in a hidden program. If a players Ping rises sharply just before they leave, they will be exempted from the penalty.

No other issue in the game is as indiscriminate in its victims or as harmful to a players record. This can not be ignored any longer.

@ Edward

His issue with two vs two is the fact that he has people disconnecting on him constantly causing him to lose.

Something should be done bout 2v2 for sure, the whole randomness of your partner
is such a deciding factor, and no matter how garbage they are( ether build wise, connective wise, etc )
you still get counted for the loss.

Basically the best stat's go to people with decent builds + the best luck in partners.

Why does it have to be luck? When you should be able to pick your partner -_-....

not support.
they already gain a lose and don't gain credit so it should be enough for him beside 50% credit and exp for 5 matches is really unfair , like think of the newbies out there you don't wanna disapoint them.
but i do think there should be anything else to be done about those leavers, like if a player failed to load then the fight stops.

Makes me half-wonder why you want to maintain your record.

Game
An activity providing entertainment or amusement; a pastime: party games; word games

Are you entertained by the game? Or are you treating winning as a job that must be taken seriously?

Regardless, not getting the credits and experience is punishment in its own right.

What will this do? Besides further enrage and annoy players. It's not their fault the game is so bland and at times completely unfair no matter what the circumstances are. Why should players be penalized for
rage quiting in a game that encourages it?

The biggest imbalance is 1 of 3 (or 2 if you do not think that Juggernaut is a true battle mode) choices of battle? 33% or 50% of a PVP encounter is not the root of imbalance. I agree it could benefit from a touch up however.

@ Void

A touch up maybe, but not one where you can become victims every time you get disconnected. I can think of several ways that this will punish the community even when it isn't their fault.

1 Start a match on the update day, an update warning comes and the match doesn't finish before the countdown and no one died.

2 Bugs that cause you to disconnect within the system or ones that force you to disconnect (we had this before when there was a bug that disconnected one person, the match failed to start, and the only way you could escape was if one team left giving the other team victory.)

 Then don't play 2v2. Simple as that...
You click on the 2v2 button each time being fully aware that there's a chance your team could have problems, so I see this more as a rant thread to unfairly punish players who may get D/C because of their poor internet connection.
