PvP Progression System and Rankings - Dev Diary about the next big update for PvP Expeditions
Dear Settlers!
With the upcoming game version the Progression System and
Rankings for Expeditions are going to become available. The new version will be deployed on
June 23rd 2015.
Let's have a closer look at this huge update for PvP!
For the first time ever in "The Settlers Online", permanent rankings will become available.
The rankings can be found on the website. They are recalculated every few minutes and reset monthly.
An archive of past months will be available. The rankings will be provided for each game world and world wide instances.
The three ranking types are calculated based on several factors:
Average time per Map size
Indicates how fast Expeditions were finished on average. There will be one time ranking per map size.
Requirements
A minimum of 5 played Expeditions, Colony Tier 3. If a player falls to Tier 2, the ranking entry will not be removed.
Your ranking will not be updated until Tier 3 has been reached again.
Important:
- This will list the average time needed for all expeditions 1 user plays
- If two players have the same time, the player with more played expeditions will be ranked higher
- The maximum amount of time being considered is 3 hours, even if an Expedition took more time
- If an Expedition was cancelled, it will count as a 3 hour completion
Time (fastest)
Shows how fast expeditions were finished. There will be one time ranking per map size.
Requirements
Colony Tier 3. If a player falls to Tier 2, the ranking entry will not be removed.

Efficiency (won / lost unit ratio)
This rank shows the efficiency of defeating enemy units
Requirements
Minimum 1000 enemy units defeated, Colony Tier 3. If a player falls to Tier 2, the ranking entry will not be removed.
