In my eyes this is the final solution for EE wars. Whether it is for EE wars only or if it is introduced to the entire KaW system I feel it is very reasonable. This will solve the overpowered LB problem where whoever has the biggest LB has a huge advantage and the SH problem where they can stack BFA and plunder mids and some can even plunder bigs. Allys play a HUGE roll in EE wars. Having your payout including ally strength was suggested before and shut down (even though I find it reasonable because it is a small price to pay for static attack and defence). That does not mean we stop there. Allys still need to be balanced in some way. Today I bring you my solution... have your ally's strength capped based on your combined stats! This could change wars as we know it today! What are the positives you might ask? Well now all big LB would become equal at some point. This way big LB would still be larger than many people but the LB can battle each other more fairly. Also SH are a huge complaint. Well with the cap in BFA at their size they will not be any match for a mid. Problem solved. Some suggestions you the community could consider is maybe making the cap exponential amount strenght so the top 1000 don't end up all being equal unless you prefer that as a community then it could be linear. Just some thoughts to add to the idea. Well that is my input! What do you the community think?
This is suppose to be a fleixble idea. I am not just looking for support but suggestions to make it more flexible to ensure people don't get screwed over.
Not trying to be a negative nancy, I just don't see any bfa cap ever being implemented. The big spenders and lb players would be getting screwed any way you slice it. There was talk from the devs a while back about scaling bfa so it's not static. That might balance things without upsetting people quite as much. I don't remember what people said about the idea, but I'm guessing even that would piss a lot of people off.
BFA is nice being static but it is OVER POWERED and I am sure many agree even the LB themselves but THEY paid for it because that's the mechanic they purchased. If nothing is done I don't see clan wars EVER changing. That is why I am tossing out these ideas. I would really like to see something done
Devs would not support something that would piss of lb players this much lol, I could imagine devs maybe putting bfa restrictions on smaller players but no way in hell big players.
That is where an exponential relation could come in. So those hfbc have an extremely large cap to keep LB as is but sti restrict the smaller players. That is the reason behind the flexible ideas I proposed. You can adjust it to make others happy.
No hard feelings taken I enjoy all feedback. It is an interesting thought I came up with that can be flexible enough to screw off the least amount of people. Support No support Suggestions All supported
No support. Players work hard on their bfa so they can have that advantage. Indi wars fixed the problem already. SH are no longer a problem in them.
This is a great idea. And has been suggested many times in the past as well. Main complaint I've heard is LB complaint that if thier allies can be bought in EE war and their BFA is capped, then they can lose trillions and trillions they normally wouldn't. Buying of allies in EE would also need to be turned off. Second, it sort of begs the question as to why did an LB guy pay good money to be bigger then everyone else by a huge margin if they don't get to realize the benefits of that. So...it would only work if it was a change that only effected we wars. But even then...it's like having stats u paid for that should offer u an advantage taken away. It is an elegant solution and offers a permanent solution to SH and huge LB stack...however it don't see the traction needed from the top LB to really have this work.
Why dont we war with plunder counted EXCLUDING ally bonus. So it'll just be pure plunder from your hits like you dont have allies at all.. Besides we dont war for the golds, we war for reaching who gets more "score" in the end of the war..
gets back to season 1 match algo, (when all lb got kicked and not allowed to war) it has created a money generating funnel for the devs, thats why it has not been simply fixed by going back to season 1 algo. While i agree, bfa is the whole reason sh are used, not sure devs are ready to give up thier cash cow.
No it wouldn't. Mids vs mids with allies, the mids with allies would win because they spent time on ally bonus. Are you saying that time taken to buy allies should be void? Although op's idea may be feasible.
