Hello all, I just would like to know exactly what are CQ Points, what are they used for and is there anything special about them.
CQ Points

Combat Quotient. A point per kill of an enemy in PvP situation although not necessarily meaning you have to get the final blow, an entire group will get a CQ if they one of their member earns it. You can still gain a CQ if you damage an opponent but die before they do and someone else finishes them off. Also I believe you can't get them if that person has previously reconned and is under Death Effect.
So it isn't an accurate reading of how many kills you have made but it does go some way to show the experience of that player's character in PvP but even this may not be a good indicator. The character whose CQ score you are looking up may be an expert PvPer using an RP character of theirs, doesn't use that character to PvP often thus has a low score or it could be a player who isn't brilliant at PvP but teams regularly and eats up the CQ's.
There is no actual use for them apart from bragging rights, and certain competitions where proof of a kill is required.
In short: CQ = MMO Viagra.

I like to think of CQ not as a signifier of skill but PvP frequency. If you see a guy with a lot of CQ walking around, chances are that he's up for a scrap.
Also.. you may find on occasion higher the CQ count the bigger the ego.

CQs are worthless regaurdless of what people think. The only really purpose of a cq point is a inaccurate number based on most damage or kills on other players in pvp.
I myself have 14700+ cqs on my main, and all it really does it boost my confindence in myself and shows others that they will really have to work hard to take me down, most of the time, takes 3 to get it done quickly...

Not much different from 1v1 PVP. Infact, it's actually the same thing. I and I'm sure others would like to see less of people making fools of themselves constantly going "lol u culdnt kil me fast enuf". It's probably going to take about a minute on average to kill you. If you have somewhere to be and the person killing you was holding you up please, just simply ALT+F4 and go about your important business. Resessitate your dog or whatever it is that's requiring your immediate and undivided attention.
If not, "QQ more".
Thank you.
(btw I'm the best PVPer in any game ever. Discuss.)

I think I've figured out why our forums are so bugged. Too much contradiction and E-Peen for the internet to handle, let alone our forums.
