5 RepliesAll a high/low kdr signifies is that you are not being matched with people of the correct skill level. If you always fight with and aginist people of simular skill level your kdr should be around 0.75 and 1.25 (0.5 to 1.5 in the extreme ).

Not one bit. Except to weed out the assholes who DO care about it.

Edited by TheCyo: 1/11/2017 1:56:01 PMThe way skill based matchmaking works in Destiny it is basically worthless, because the system will strive to get you close to 1. The only way you have a high KD is: * You just created your 10th new character and abused the skill based matchmaking to inflate your KD * You are a year one player and still carry over your inflated and coddled KD from pre skillbased times * You run stacked teams to pubstomp * You KD farm in the non skill based matchmaking Trials (the good old farm 3 games and reset method) * You are on the upper end of the skill tree and the match making can not find equals (the only scenario where KD has meaning - but there are not that many Destiny players in this bracket)

With how easily it can be farmed? Hell no

It would, if it wasn't able to be boosted and manipulated.

8 RepliesI mean its a decent indicator for skill, if you die more than you kill you're probably not very good at crucible. That's completely okay though of course, plenty of people play for the PvE and not the PvP.

2 RepliesHonestly that's a personal question, do YOU or I care about k/d. If so great if not great

1 Reply[quote]Answer is no .[/quote] In the current state of the crucible, no it doesnt matter. Half of the gun battles, who wins them, are basically decided by rng.

4 RepliesAt times it does not, at times it does. From what I've seen it depends more on the map and the mode. My KDR sucks. It's not so much that I'm a bad player but that I'm just learning Crucible. Up until very recently if I went in to Crucible, it was simply to farm legendary marks or experience. Actually *playing* Crucible means learning the maps, best loadouts for situations, practicing new tactical maneuvers, etc. that really aren't part of the PvE skills set. I'm a better player than my <1 KDR. Partly for the above, but also because I'll take a death or 3 to help the team. If the rest of the group is going to put up with my learning curve, then I have no problem being a meat shield for the runner in Rift, getting killed to revive a better player in Skirmish, etc. And while I may be shy on kills, I do get a lot of assists. So I'm not exactly useless while I'm doing the "git gud" grind.

Your kd pay the bills?? Oh wait your mommy pays the bills.... Could care less about what a punk thinks who still lives at home with mommy and daddy

1 Replyin conflict, trails, elimination and rumble yes. all objective modes not

Depends on the game mode.
-
To me it depends on if you are playing an objective game type. Lower KD players tend to play the objective more. So they are more help in Control and Rift than they are in Clash or Elemination.

Edited by RingersCheckmate: 1/10/2017 1:19:41 AMI wouldn't say so. I imagine most people with KD And ELO requirements have requirements for their friends on social medias. They can't friend anyone with >500 friends, can't follow anyone above 1,000 followers, etc. It's a very bland stat that isn't very representative of actual skill, especially when the meta punishes people for using certain weapons. You can have a helluva sniper with no land beyond who is really accurate, but due to his high use of no land beyond his KD is less than those who use shotguns, pulse rifles, and other meta choices. Why so many people worship this number is baffling to me.
