Mythic needs to stop encouraging stealth zergs by rewarding RPs based on risk. there is little risk running a 3 to 8 man stealth when you pick off solos and duos, but the faulty logical system for RPs granst you more RPs for this type of skill-less ganking situation because you have less risk and more reward for ganking than you would get for soloing.

Soloing is uncommon because there is little reward for making a kill and much more risk. There needs to be a bonus amount of RPs for every solo kill. For example:

1) Currently the system might give you 1500 for a solo kill, 900 each for killing a solo while in a duo and about 750 each for killing a solo in a trio. This makes no sense. The points should round down to 750 for duo and 500 for trio. In addition to this, Mythic should reward all solo kills a 50% bonus amount of RPs to make up for the illogical amount of RPs falsely credited for zerging people.

2) Then, a solo kill of another solo would grant 1,500 RPs + 750 RPs for that kill for a total of 2,250 RPs.

3) If a group of more than 8 people does damage to a solo, all will get 1 RP. Why reward a slaughter? It took both no skill and no risk, and the RPs should reflect that fact and not just randomly promote skill-less zerging and button mashing everything within range just because of a faulty RP reward system.

4) Mythic, your RP system makes no sense. It does not factor in risk. It promotes the mindless button mashing zerg that this game has turned into. The zergers all sacrifice their class's skills to maximize grouped skills because it is all about damage output and this further promotes what we have now, which is a ton of button mashing, unskilled players who just outnumber other players and all tactics are taken out of the game.

All of the affects and abilities you put into the game are worthless because it's all about outnumbering the opponent and mashing damage buttons and gaining RPs. Please fix this oversight and add a solo award for skilled players who are tired of getting zerged by hordes of skill-less zergers.

Thank you....And please consider a mashable purge because CC affects solos the most, being that they are always outnumbered due to your faulty RP reward system that makes no sense and encourages poor gameplay and skill-less button mashing.

That would only affect stealthers ofc and they should remove RPS retroactive from stealthers that zerged their way to high RR.
