Beta Power Ratings & Ladder

The beta version of our Power Rating system has gone live with patch 1.05. This is a level based rating system that calculates a number of factors to assign a player a rating based on the games they have played. The ladder is designed to place a player at their level quickly, so new players will move through the ranks relatively fast. Players can range in skill from level 0-50, with each rank assigned a title:

Rank Title/Skill Level

Field Marshal 50

General 47-49

Lieutenant General 44-46

Major General 41-43

Brigadier 38-40

Colonel 35-37

Lieutenant Colonel 32-34

Major 29-31

Captain 26-28

1st Lieutenant 23-25

2nd Lieutenant 20-22

Master Sergeant 17-19

Sergeant 14-16

Corporal 11-13

Lance Corporal 8-10

Private 3-7

Conscript 0-2

All rated games count towards your ranking, these include quick search and custom games. For team games, all members of the team gain or lose the same amount. The ranking ladder is unique in that it will not reset every few months as the rest of the game ladders do.

You can view a player’s rating in several areas on ESO. You can mouse over a player’s avatar in the game setup window to find their Power Rating or view their Home City. The top 1000 rated players can be viewed on the Power Rating ladder, and custom games now display the rank of the player hosting the game.

We are still fine tuning a number of things when it comes to computing a player’s level, including how quickly you advance or lose levels. We may be adjusting these in the future, or resetting the beta ladder entirely. We look forward to receiving player feedback on the new system as we fine tune it.
