Battleground Matchmaking Improvements
Blizzard is going to implement a few noteworthy changes to Battlegrounds in the game's next update. Before anything, Battlegrounds is the pinnacle PvP activity in Diablo Immortal where two teams try to complete objectives and rack as many kills as possible to win.
That being said, one of the major adjustments to Battlegrounds has something to do with Resonance. Once the update goes live, the importance of Resonance in matchmaking will be less impactful once players achieve the "Legendary" rank.
The game might still put them with players of higher Resonance, but the matchmaking system is less likely to do that. It's worth pointing out, however, that Resonance will ultimately be ignored by the matchmaking system once players achieve a respectable power level.
Resonance, for those who don't know, refers to a value that increases the player's equipment base attributes by a certain percentage. This can be influenced by Legendary Gems that players can slot into their gear. The higher the Resonance a player has, the more powerful they are against their competition.
The change mentioned above is Blizzard's way of solving the issue where some players were being matched up against overpowered combatants. It is interesting to see if this will have any perceivable impact on matchmaking moving forward.
Speaking of matchmaking, the company has merged multiple servers to help reduce matchmaking queues.
Once players have been added to the Battlegrounds, their armor and armor penetration values have a bearing over which teams they are going to be assigned to.
To spice things up, Blizzard will implement a change that allows players to receive more than three rewards per day for their efforts. It seems that the company is doing this to entice players to try Diablo Immortal's PvP.
