Separate PvP podium for GM and Legends

Enough is enough. Too many complaints on the issue of pvp.
Some 'genius' decided it was best for a level 50+ to team up with novice wizards just to out smart the math in ranking system and get rank fast.
Meanwhile all of us that play fair, with honour and dignity are suffering the outcome.

Why not put up a 3rd podium for Grands and Legends to pvp.
Furthermore, put a level block on the RANK podium so Gm's and Legends can not team up with anyone lower than 50.

I think the idea needs more detail but all in all it is a good idea. Make a separate list for higher level ranked players.. I like it.

It sounds good, but fixing one problem can lead to another. Creating seperate tiers for PvP will fix the mismatch between wizard levels, but will also dramatically decrease the availabilty for low and mid level wizards to PvP. This is why more lower and mid level wizards are encountering Legendaries, there just isn't enough of them to duel. Moving to this format will create an environment like Pet Derby where someone can wait hours for one match to begin (which IS based on level). It's a good idea, but there will be consequences.

Ikr, all my posts on these kind of issues is trying to explain to people that is all a player factor and it depends on the amount of players. But they just keep denying it and want a KI fix and well if it makes the majority of them happy maybe the rants on it will stop.

well put!! Finally someone with a rational opinion. Listen, when I was a 1600 rank Pre celestia I would sometimes wait up to four hours to be lucky enough to get a fight to downrank with the hopes of getting lower just to get fights, bad news the other guy was also trying to drop rank because waiting forever for a match is about as fun as watching paint dry. I heard of a great place for all complainers to hang out... a wonderful place where you can pick to fight whatever level you want!! Even your exact level--->points to practice side.

I do not support this idea but I support the spirit of it.

The reason I don't support it is because it would increase the waiting times too much.

I think the writer of this thread would be very nicely surprised to find out he is not losing a lot of points from fighting and losing to GMs and legends thanks to the new fix to the scoring system.

This goes a long way to decreasing the hurt of a level 33 fighting GM and/or legend.

Hey I agree with you. I am lvl 18 life and I LOVE to 2v2 with my bestest friend Hunter Hawkblade (lvl 18 myth) and on most occations we fight LEGENDS pvping WITH wizards of OUR LVLS! It's untolerable. Wizard101 should ban the idea of wizards under lvl 48 pvping with legends. And the way they get us is because we are high ranks. Sometimes we beat the legends (either insane bolt or Hunter boost up and then uses his pet orthrus) but I always die and then the legends and there teammates rub it in our faces. UGH! Kingsisle SHOULD put a stop to this!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, then you two should get wizards around the same level. You just admitted you are part of the problem we are facing in the arena. which ever one of you is the lower level, should raise to pvp together FAIRLY.

hey i am fair i dont rank up using high level friends.
my brother is the lower level and he loves doing pvp a lot but if he ranks up on his own he gets destroyed about a little bit less then half the time.
also i am not his partner for pvp he teams up with his myth friend named Jason Legend so dont say i am part of the problem because i am fair
and my brother is a level 12 balance that only has a few shields and a few blades

ugh i am not part of the problem
