I am torn on the UA

1. if what yelsha posted is correct and you get both realm and UA reward Awesome. Otherwise lost of players get screwed on their rewards. Otherwise it was a dumb idea that just irritates more players then who benefit form it.

2. The measuring stick is broke. Lets look at server 1.
You got boo who can beat everyone one the server in straight up PvP. He may lose 1 in a thousand times on attack and 1 in 100 times in defense.
then you got about 6 or so of us who can all beat each other 9 out of 10 times on offense but lose 9 out of 10 time son defense. we range in power form about 180m to 288m power. And this is all of us using our best PvP everything. So whats the measuring stick to decide who is 2-10 for us?

because right now without any agreements between ourselves, the measuring stick is plain out who gets the last win in before 10 am. Now this may be fine for some people. But seems silly to me that its all about that 1 second of time a day and where you are in arena the rest of the day dont mean squat. How many time syou defended your spot or how many time sit took to win a spot means nothing.

I propose a simple change have the rewards for arena both realm and UA. Have them work like P stone. The rewards you get start at 0 every day at a certain time. and the pot increases. you have a tick every minute to increase your pot. And your rank determines how much the next tick increases your pot. SO if your #1 your gonna get a bigger increase each tick then who is in 2nd or 3rd etc. If you start at rank 11 and move up to rank 8 when then your ticks in the pot get bigger while your in 8th and if you get knocked down your ticks gets smaller. SO basically if your are #1 in arena for 24 hours you will get the same rewards you do now for being #1 in arena for that 1 second of the day.

This is crazy. It's about who's most persistent in hitting 24/7

This is the point of the arena. If you are all that close in competition then there should be not real guarantee of rewards. make sure you are there to earn your rewards, or don't and get smaller rewards, that simple. Either way the rewards you have access to are pretty awesome.

1. First you only get 1 reward, NOT from 2 arenas!! The one I got this morning was NOT the one it said I'd earn in Ultimate position, it was only like 1/10 of what it was supposed to be.
2. You'd have to fight for, or decide on a sharing of spots. Not unlike the old arenas.
3. Don't like this idea at all. But something should be done about the timing. Changing forms for Cerb at the same time you need to defend your positon in arena is NOT good. It's very unfair. IF we could get that "save form", so that you can log into Cerb then change for it, that would solve that. It's something we've been asking for.
