This is a post I typed a couple days ago but then decided not to post to not show everyone how to "farm" stones.
If real PvP is what is wanted to promote a couple things must change:Ok, don't take this wrong I applaud initiatives to promote PvP. But let's show what I think is wrong with the current implementation.
Teammate ported on a red, attacker 47 mil pres, defender 29 mil pres. Decent defended city, the wave that cleared the city was awarded with 34 stones: http://ww.evonyurl.com/edanj8
Defender immediately truced after being wiped. Hmmm, still 53 minutes left on that coin. Nearest red found at 9.2 mile. WTH. Let's just try it. Defender 60 mil pres. Defender decided to immediately truce up and empty out the city, when waves hit only a returning 5 team was present. WTF, that's rewarded with 220 stones: http://ww.evonyurl.com/4u63e0
Still 15 minutes left on that coin... wait there's a 3.7 mil pres grey at 3.6 miles. Heroes still returning so quickly grab an inn hero. Grey shut gates but still that's worth 27 stones. http://ww.evonyurl.com/acuu7p
Seriously hits like the 2nd is what we wanna see?
- rewards for good hits doesn't matter if they win the battle or not. The way it was we were promoted to go after farmcities as you mostly don't get to clear a WC before they truce or port.
- when hitting a WC which requires a lot of dedication, it shouldn't be a reward once every 8 hours. Also because if multiple sets are necessary, the first hit isn't always the best hit (altho the best will mostly be in the beginning when all cav/phract is still there)
- rethink the way how players are determined to be equal size. I'm not sure how would be a fair way and probably can't keep pres out completely as it has to be fair for both newer and established servers. But on an established server once you reach a certain point like the arbitrary 100 mil I mention earlier in this thread, you should be trooped and capable of defending. Below that maybe a percentage as multiplier as 47 mil hitting 29 mil or 3.6 mil rewarded almost the same isn't right either. 29 mil should have been rewarded more than the baby-account.
- a leader board would be nice but at least communication about the results. I haven't seen it yet.
