So having just gotten back from a lovely game of being farmed on warzone I thought I’d look into it and see what’s going on. First reason obviously being the Achilles armour but I’m not here to talk about that.
The second reason and the one I want to talk about is the apparent extra REQ points you get for dragging on a game past the 10 minute mark and why doing so actually DECREASES net REQ gain.
So apparently from what I’ve heard, a quick game of warzone will grant roughly 1200 REQ points for a win, whilst a longer game of over 10 minutes gives 2000. People seem to think that playing longer games gives more, and from just looking at the numbers you can why, but it really is simple maths. Say I spend just over 10 minutes playing warzone, purposely dragging out the game to that length before destroying the core, that’s 2000 REQ points I just got for those 10 minutes. Now let’s say I rush the next 2 games with my company and finish them in under 5 minutes for both. That’s two sets of 1200 points, or 2400 REQ points for roughly 10 minutes also. So yea. I just made a massive rant to ask why the hell youre dragging on single games for the points when 2 games in the same time frame grants more, I’d love to know…
They’re not dragging them out for points, they’re dragging them out for kills. You said that in the first paragraph.

Well like I said I’ve looked into it. I know some people, especially right now, are dragging it out of that lovely armour but not everyone does. Some people honestly drag it out for points, its how I found out about the numbers to begin with. People genuinely believe in dragging it to 10 then destroying the core to get more points but it doesn’t work that way. There are more than enough posts covering the kill farming part.

What does the number of posts about farming kills have to do with anything?

Exactly. Players dragging a game out aren’t doing so to farm REQ, they’re doing it to farm Commendations or kills.
