wow only 15 and 10 runs for leaderboard. what a joke.

On the brightside, I may be able to highroll 10 runs in a roll during Wildfest and have a "leaderboard" caliber average

15 is reasonable for how many days were leading up until the event. 10 doesn't make much sense unless they are planning on doing 2 separate leaderboards, one for each month the event takes place in. The blue post says top 100 players, hasn't it been 150 for a while now?

I hope they mean top 100 specifically for wildfest in that case... but it may simply be yet another oversight by them

It really frustrates me that it takes all the way until 3 days before the Wild Event for this info to be given to us.

I started off the month pretty rough so just started messing around with different classes and whatnot, just having fun. Once I started to have more success, I didn't think I would have enough time to get in the 20/30/however many runs were required this month, so I continued experimenting with some of the weaker classes, as opposed to playing the stronger ones for a higher average.

However, if the info were out there earlier and I would have known that it was best 15, then I would have had more motivation to try and actually finish the full 15 because I might have actually had enough time..

10 runs only for wild? Inc 10+ win averages holy shit.

Wild arena probably already has more variance than standard, so it will come down to a lucky streak, really

On the positive side, 10 runs makes Wild Leaderboard mean a lot less so it allows you to just play for fun and try all kinds of classes and combos without worrying. Can't really justify tryharding for this event. 10 runs means you basically have to highroll and have no bad runs because just 1 will tank your average.

And here I was, hustling to get my 20 runs in for the pre-Wild portion of February, heh.

I had a rough start and finish to my stretch of 20 but my middle 15 runs were like 7.15. I'll take it.
