How to Calculate World of Warcraft Arena Points

If you’re wary of third-party mods but want to know how many points your Arena team will receive in a given week, look no further! The number of points you receive is dependent upon three things: your team size (two, three or five players), your team’s rating and how many matches you play in. Here’s how it to calculate the points yourself.

Difficulty: Challenging

Instructions

1. Fight! In order to even qualify for points, your team must compete in at least 10 Ranked matches per week. In order for you to qualify for points, you must fight in at least 30 percent of those matches. If your team plays 10 games and you fight in three or more, you’re good.

2. Take a look at your team’s rating. This is the main derivative of your score. If your rating is less than or equal to 1,500, multiply your rating by .38 and subtract 194.
   
   For example: Your team has a rating of 1349. Times .38 equals 512.62, minus 194 equals 318.62 points (probably rounded to 319 points.) Here’s the formula, if that’s easier for you: Give that X= Rating and Y=Arena points, Y = 0.38*X-194

3. Grab a graphing calculator if your rating is above 1,500. Here’s the formula:
   Y=1426.79/(1+918.836*Power(2.71828, -0.00386405*X)) Again, X= Rating and Y= Arena Points.

4. Finish the calculations for your team’s rating, then take a look at your team’s size. 2v2 teams earn 70 percent of the points the formula says you earned, 3v3 teams earn 80 percent and 5v5 teams earn 100 percent.

5. Do the appropriate multiplications and you’ve got the final result of how many points your Arena Team will earn in a given week!
