Hi,

As personal ratings seems to vary a lot, I thought it would be a lot better to make the arena items only require team rating, instead of both team and personal rating.

E.g. today I played some arena, and we got to 1630 rating... My arena-mate then bought deadly belt, but I only had 1617 personal rating, so I couldn't get it too...

Then about 8 arenaes later, we got to 1649; now my arena-mate was happy again, because he could go get his leggings :)
I was happy too - I had 1633 personal rating at that point, so I could go get my belt by now... but still not the leggings (in my case it doesn't matter about the leggings as I got better though, but it's still annoying).

Only base item requirements on Team rating, not personal as well - wondered if someone shared my opinion on this? :)

EDIT: Oh I forgot; a fix might be needed for preventing players from joining a highrated team and buy some epixx without playing in the team (u know what I mean), any suggestions for a way to prevent that? :)

That being said, we feel it is important to note that currently the personal rating of a player converges towards their matchmaking (hidden) rating rather than the team rating. We realize this is a source for much confusion and frustration with the players and will be changing the way it works a little: Instead of having the personal rating of each player converge towards their matchmaking (hidden) rating, it will instead be converging towards the team rating. We believe this change will help alleviate a lot of the current concerns and frustrations players are reporting.
