How do you get a higher fragrate?
Mines only like .86 or something...
I don't understand what it is.

You can get higher by Getting more kills staying alive more!

More kills could help but dying less is even more important.

How do you get a higher fragrate? Mines only like .86 or something... I don't understand what it is. "Frag Rate" (or "FR", for short) is very simple, actually -- it's your number of kills (enemies only) divided by your number of deaths (including TK's, accidents, and suicides). If you kill 10 times in a session, and you die 10 times, your FR is 1.0; if you kill 10 times and die 5 times, your FR is 2.0; if you kill 5 times and die 10 times, your FR is 0.5 As for what's a "good" FR? Generally, anything 1.0 or above means that you're doing okay -- you're killing enemies as much as or more than you're dying, so you're probably being a help to your team. Anything under 1.0, you're dying more than you're killing enemies, but you might still be a help to your team because you're sneaking around getting objectives instead of hunting the enemies. How to raise your FR? Don't die, and kill enemies!  And of course, when you have a low number of kills and deaths, it's easy to build up (or destroy) your FR in a single session. Once you build up multiple thousands of kills and deaths, it's harder to increase or decrease your FR, because it takes a lot more of them to alter the percentage any. |

And as I'm finding out, if you start a FR with around .20 and are now doing 1.0, it isn't going to change. Need to get at least 1.1 or better to move the scale.

I would like to point out that your FR doesn't necessarily indicate what type of player you are in the game. If you have learned to play well before you have a AAO account it will track different than it will if you start one when you are new to the game. It is somewhat a good representation of how you play, but it is not always accurate. For example my Armor-=Of-God=- account has about a 1.6-1.7 or so FR, but my alternate account that was Rev.216 had about a 5 or so at one time, now I think its a 4. It's good to have to check it out once in a while, but I have learned to ignore it mostly and just play. It is very easy to get tied up in a FR race and forget to have fun while playing the game.

"kudos" (not sure what that means) Armor!
As an example, I've recently gotten converted to Hospital by all the fanatics in our clan. Well, before I like it, my FR was .63, now, its .61. But thats not bad, I've had more fun, adn gained more honor points than on most other maps. so, really, FR doesn't matter much for me.

Took me almost a year since I joined the clan to get my FR up to 1.0. Does that mean up until I hit 1.0 I was not such a hot player? Nope. Don't let your FR define who you are as a player.

Take me for an example, I have a .75 fr which is decent. But I really am not a good player. A fragrate is just something for fun, it doesnt really tell you how good you are.

1. Thanks for all the fast replies! ;D "kudos" (not sure what that means) Armor! As an example, I've recently gotten converted to Hospital by all the fanatics in our clan.

Do you really get that much honor in SF Hospital? Whenever I play SF maps, I lag badly |

Hospital has the potential to greatly increase your Honor score. Cloak and I used to play on that map alot and it wasn't anything to get about 7000 to 10000 points in about 30 to 45 mintues.

I have the highest FR in the clan(just active members only) and I am certainly not the best player; not even close.
So it doesn't determine anything, it's just a number.
