Why have we halted in war?

Is for caps enlistment I made an alliance with 5 friends and we recruited a couple randoms for 1 BG of war. As we are all paragons we stormed through and have only lost one war since the start of Caps Enlistment. However even though we burst through stone and bronze we are sort of getting stuck at silver 3. How does the scoring work? It is very hard to find info on this.

If you are only running 1bg you pretty much top out at I believe gold 1, and that's really difficult. The alliance that does it is basically the 1bg Guerrero z. Silver 2 in 1 bg probably translates to about p4 in a 3bg alliance I would think.

Oh and for scoring the simplest way to look at it is a 3bg alliance gets triple the points you do.

That kinda sucks. I get it takes more coordination but it would be nice to get rewards more equitable to our skill.

The more wars you win, the higher your war rating goes. War rating dictates which tier you play in, which in turn dictates the multiplier added to the scoring for individual wars.

I’ll echo what the above comment says about 1bg. There is a ceiling that you’ll come up against.

1 BG can make it to Gold 1 ??
Are you assuming they build all the way up to the highest levels of WarRating, while only playing 1 BG ?
In order to get very high level Multiplier to make up for only getting 1/3rd the normal points (plus the small extra of Win total unaffected by BG's).

Which if so, would take a very long time to do, and by that point if still playing that competitive would probably advance back to multiple BG's by then.

They said they started new, so they went thru Stone/Bronze, with WR starting from scratch.

At moderate War Rating (by which I mean NOT just some very top alliance deciding to drop down to only doing 1 or 2 BG), 2 BG would be hard pressed for Gold 1, let along a 1 BG Ally.

As your WR Rating climbs some more, you should be able to advance beyond Silver 3, but I don’t know about being able to crack into any level of Gold.

This has nothing to do with skills.
War season ranks are dependent on season points.
Season points are dependent on war tier multiplier.

Since you started new allince and started at tier 22... That's what you'll score with your multiplier.

Every allince gets ~50k points per BG.
+30k War points are awarded for a win.

If you are running 1 BG you are alredy missing in 100k points from other 2 BGs. And that adds up to a huge disadvantage.

The common hard but true reply we get in forums is why should an allince doing 1 BG ranks higher than allince doing 3 BG war in same tiers.

Gold1 would be tough but maybe possible. I’ve been in a 1bg alliance and in tier 4 we were hitting silver 1. So a little more pushing and you can maybe get there. The effort vs reward is definitely not worth it though, lol

We used to run one BG and war and barely made it to Gold 3. It took us forever to get to gold 3. Once we got there it was hard to stay there since like everyone said you get 1/3 of the points for alliances that has 3 big. If we had a lose 3 or more war, we would be in silver 1. It was so stressful since every death was important. Once we ran 3 BG in war and didn't care about using revives or deaths, within a 1 war season, we shot up to Gold 2, having a 50% win rate. Unfortunately one BG will be hard get to gold 3 without taking forever.

Scoring is straightforward. Here's 1 bg scoring for intermediate map:

The higher your war rating, the higher your multiplier. The higher your multiplier, the more points you get. Here's 2 bg score, same alliance:

Oh, and these are all 3-5 million paragons.

Moral of the story: more battle groups, more points.
