It's exactly my Point.

Yes but troops take time training. If you need attacking a Player the same lv as you but he has insane Honor while you don't have so much you'll easily win because you get those 50% Troops instantly back and can Attack spam him while he'll have less and less. By the time he retrains his troops you will be done with. Especially when you're also training them as he is.
So you'll have an advantage :D.
true, true. anyway I can't argue with that. you're right ^_^
Come now Prestige IS useless.
I can think of a few people who were worthy of top spot but most are not.
Anyone remember the guy who got to 1 million Prestige by end of beginners protection ? Had no army and miserly defense anyone with 10-15k warriors would have stomped him..
Prestige is usefull to 256,000 for Princessan after that i'm dropping mine WWAAYYY down to 80-100k :D
I turn up next to someone they ain't going to be worried untill my armies start marching
:eek:
Prestige is the BEST indicator for a player strength .. ye, I like to repeat myself ... there is no other way to make a first impression about a player except for his prestige.
You get prestige from making troops, if you are playing for 4 months and you only have 300k prestige, you can tell me no matter what stories about how good you are, I KNOW what you are worth ... you may give examples of 1 million prestige dude worth nothing in battle, but that is just an extreme example .. on average, prestige is a very good indicator ... as for honor, yes, you with zero honor may get 50% troops back, but you still have zero honor at the end ... fighting many .. many battles and still preserving your honor, that is hard to do, it takes SKILL :rolleyes:
As for scout bombing .. it only means you cannot find another way to take that big dude city defenses out but using the lame scout bomb excuse, and that does NOT require skill .....
I have 4mil prestige, 60mil honor and can make 2.8 mil archers in 24 hours .. .so I know what i am talking about ... and i lead the strongest alliance on 5 servers . .that is wn1 server, and i will not accept a 100k prestige player with 3 cities no matter what stories he tells me, how good he may be ... and if i accept someone, I will defend him, no matter what.
yh it means nothing :)
i do this... stats --> hero ---> rank by attack, he is the dude you dont want to mess with
Actually it's quite useful as it indicates how active the player is. At least for somebody outside your alliance, since you can't look at their last log-in date.
People saying prestige is meaningless, have you ever reached 2mil yet?
If not, nuff said.
Defensive Trebuchets are meaningless, Rolling logs are meaningless, Cavalry are meaningless, Swordsmen are meaningless, PvP is meaningless. Prestige is meaningless in Evony? So?
