A quote from Sarasca saying that it ONLY matters on the amount of prestige you have...
I beleive that it is based on Title/Rank.
Thoughts?

You need another answer - "Title/Rank/Number of cities"
and another option saying "none of the above"..
There's more to it than just prestige because I can perform the same comforting in different towns and get a different amount of prestige each time.
its based on title, rank, and the townhall of the city in which you perform the action. this really isnt that hard to prove. when your title or rank goes up, watch the prestige you get for a given building go down. build the same building in two cities with different townhall levels, and watch how you get a different amount of prestige for each. i've already done this, as have many others. also witness the guide to getting 100k prestige in beginner protection, it involves not improving title or rank and minimizing townhall upgrades, and it works.
She said it so definitivly; if all caps was necissary I think she knew what she was talking about. :p
Just because someone is a mod on the forums doesn't mean they know all the details of the game, even if they pass themselves off that way. :(
Knuckles thread showing pictures of how he got insane Prestige - http://bbs.evony.com/showthread.php?t=30595
Please provide a link to that admission.
I've seen Sarasca hand out incorrect information before. You guessing that she probably tested this is not really all that helpful. :rolleyes:Quote:
Sarasca's asked me for proof on many claims I've made and forgot to cite, I believe she's probably tested this. But I can't be certain :o
Sarasca is very helpful in the Help and Questions section but she is not always right.
He was scolded by Zenrax, I had assumed that he was advising on an exploit. I think he just told me that his TH and rank had nothing to do with it, but I do tend to have a hard time picking up on sarcasm ;P
And for the rest of your post, that's all whether you want to believe she tested it or not. If she were to post here, we'de know wether she had actually tested it and was certain her post was right (hence the "This is the way it works" format), or if she is just adament that this IS the way the game works, with no sort of testing :rolleyes:
If this is the case, my apologies to you, I just don't expect that from a moderator.
I'm ranking no. 5 on server 20. I only have 1 city. My town hall is only level 3 and my title is still Civilian. The other guys in top 10 are Duke/Marquis/Pinzessin/Earl/Frustin and have 4-10 cities. Maybe they've lost some prestige during battle but I can tell my prestige count rises quickly compared to another server where I play "normally".
Hehe, I guess that was a heavy "maybe" :p
Again, if Sarasca didn't test it, I'm wrong :) not a huge deal in my book, just an opinion that she tested it.
I don't like starting on a new server. If you're willing to make a new account on server one and pull ahead of me, more power to you.
Besides, for all I know things are different on newer servers. Drop rates are different, prestige mechanics are too, possibly.
On Server 1, prestige gain is effected by prestige until further notice :D
So since he was "scolded by Zenrax" that means he was exploiting? :confused:
I don't want to tear her name through the mud because she is very helpful to newbies asking questions, but I have seen her give out opinions as facts that are simply not true. I could go find a few examples but again I don't want to tear her down as the majority of the time she is correct.Quote:

This thread isn't going very well for you as you are doing a lot of assuming. :p
I am. But if people want to believe me, go for it. Since you're making good points, people will probably make the choice to agree with you, I'm simply making the decision that she had tested it, as you have gone with Knuckles, who has made a very valid point. I'm just ASSUMING that Sarasca has some meat to her claim as well.
In the end, Knukles has it pretty much laid out. I'm curious to see how Sarasca came to that conclusion, now, as well as why she was so sure of her answer.
Also, Knuckles, thanks for clearing that up. I thought that the medal drop rate had been changed for a long time, as I hadn't seen any recent updates.
Yeah, while Sarasca may have been wrong, she spends quite a bit of time helping the newer players, and nobody can be right 100% of the time.
Besides, there are other moderators who, when I read some of their posts, I just think to myself, "This person really should not be a mod. I don't think they've logged into the game for the past two months and they don't know what they're talking about."
I've been playing since near the last week of Civony, I believe.
Hard to tell since they don't have a damned "Account created" stat.
Well I'm going with the person who posted several screenshots and I talked to about what he was doing as opposed to the person you are completely guessing they tried something.
Just because someone is a forum mod does NOT mean they are in-game experts who know everything.
haha those screenshots are fake
hello representitive. check out my poll amount of time to finish anything. it is meant for people like you
i cant believe these lies people put on these forums...
no it is just me:)
200th post i make swordsmen
and i think it is based on title
does anyone actually care how much prestige they have? it's just a meaningless number that has no reflection on your strength or your ability to play.
