Estoc Trials - Week #2

Discussion in 'Past Events' started by admin, Dec 4, 2012.

  1. News
    * We are looking to release the new set of Red Paladin items sometime this week.
    * Matchmaking will improve week over week, we have read all of the feedback and it is one of the highest priorities moving forward.
    * We are looking into the possibility of having war times mid week, and also a shorter, 2 hour war schedule on some days.
    * A reminder to cast all Mithril spells after you receive the notice to cast them so that they qualify for the payout
    * Another reminder that for the Veil of Evasion to work, it has to be active for the full duration of the war. Also, if you have your veil cast, your account does not count towards matchmaking


    Rewards
    There has been feedback that the payout system is a bit confusing. To help address that, and without going into precise details about how Mithril rewards are calculated, here is a rough formula:

    Everyone's contribution = Their Mithril Spent+Their Attack Items Spent+Defensive Items they cause their opponent to use

    Your Payout = Your contribution + Your cut* of the sum of your opponent's contribution

    *Your cut is determined by your involvement in the war

    Looking through the feedback given, the most common reason why you may see a huge discrepancy in payout is due the fact one player spent 29 Mithril while another spent maybe 12 Mithril. This would account for a difference of 17 Mithril in payout even if both players were exactly the same in every other aspect.

  3. Thanks devs
     
  4. I just want to clarify: this means that whatever mith we spend will be guaranteed back to us if we win the war (at the least)? does this include name spells? and what about in the case of a ff?
     
  5. Gotchaaaa
     
  6. All mith spells.
     
  7. Yes lalagato but only if you win.
     
  8. Not in news section?
     
  9. will the equip be releases weekday or weekend?
     
  10. What kind of times would the weekday wars involve?
     
  11. Ok that explains why I get more mith than Someone 4 times as big as me more spells more active and more ko
     
  12. We will expect a better match up this time devs and hope u won't let us down again
    Also the LAG pls check on it..
     
  13. @kawadmin. Can you please explain the value of inferno/aqua drops after all equipment is enchanted? I assumed there would be some future value to it but it appears you are choosing to have the new equipment enchanted via alchemist as opposed to the Mage. If there is no use for it can you at least offer to have it sold? Thank you.
     
  14. Could you add a veil of evasion that last for 72 hours? That way it will definitely make you inactive for the duration of the weekend if casted anytime on friday.
