Great point here on the BFE - you can see why there are only a few winning clans as they get the pick of these GH with incredible BFE. It is just a matter of time before everyone else beyond the top EE Clans lose interest in this great part of the game.
They could put an algorithm that lowers the gold you make off another player by dividing the gold they have out, by their stats, then dividing that by their bfa and bfe... Of course, it wouldnt be a simple algotothm, and more things would have to be taken into consideration, but that's that basic outline
So tired of seeing posts like this. If you restrict smaller players everyone will just got top heavy & whoever has played the longest or spent the most RL $ will win. If you are having issues with SH/GH then work on your SDT/ADT. It's that simple. Adjusting hit ranges is the only logical way to "fix" the issues with plunder.
Well, basically it already boils down to that. The clan best stacking most LBs with gh/sh is winning. Don't tell me now that being against those stacked rosters is a restriction of smaller builds of EEs. Building adt and sdt just to fend off sh/gh actions certainly isn't a solution. You are losing plunder to the big LB guys. It would just restrict the plunder the tiny guys make on you. But you still make nada on those small ones.
And that is how it should be. The only way to offset the stat difference between smalls and bigs is to make you pay less when hit by someone larger and pay more when you hit someone larger. Adjusting hit range is still the best fix to the lb/sh combos. Also let's not forget that PS clans stacking lb with ps is just as if not worse then sh/lb stacking. The tops are the ones making all the plunder.
I don't ee but I can see the problem when a system is biased to one type of build : Go back to Pwars hansel builds earned more than full attack builds : Guild hansel earned more : dev's introduced eb's killed off Pwars also killed osf : stopped space bar spamming : all good so far : mith introduced free to buy if you had the gold at the time (and I know a couple of kingdoms that brought in excess 2000 mith ) : then new war system introduced: mith became unavailable to buy in large amounts the only way to gain mith is via ee : mith items introduced: Two teir system straight away : them that had them that didn't : so BFE becomes a major part of the game and this is where it all went wrong because of the way kaw was originally set up a small kingdom beating a big kingdom gets a larger payout and a large kingdom beating a small kingdom gets next to nothing: it didn't take long for the kingdoms who play the system to work this out and take advantage of the game mechanics : much the same way that Pwars started : kingdoms dropped builds to become guild hansel: tower building kingdoms become unbeatable in ee war system KaW uproar everyone calls foul : tower builds are nerfed : some people said at that time that this was the thin edge of the wedge ( me included ) : guild hansel earns more gold and mith in ee wars people complain : guild are nerfed : cutting off the guild benefits to rapid growth that neally all lb kingdoms enjoyed : (again I complained that this was not correct that it was the war system that was at fault) so low and behold here we are again : GH/SH are earning more gold, mid sized kingdoms can't grow much by doing ee wars in fact I've yet to see a clan that has won a war with mid-sized kingdoms : So what change do you think the dev's will come up with now hmmm nerf SH and GH again ? Or change the war system to include BFE ? To hard!! no not at all add BFE to combined stats to obtain the correct stats for a kingdom BFA is already included in stats why not BFE ? I know I'm asking the wrong ppl I just hope the dev's read these forums
It has nothing to do with size. If u are a 2m attk alt u pay big. U are just wrong here. Gh's don't pay and it's not b/c they are small lol. Small attk alts do pay gold. Your reasoning is flawed.
More support than i can put into words. The LBGH ee needs to be destroyed. And it's not just the gh making unfair payout but the LB players with more bfa than my whole build still makin good payout on easy kills for them.
I've said the same thing in other threads Versa, not nearly as concise as you put it, so full support. Bfa/e need to be included in payout formula for ee. Do that and the stacked rosters will all go away. LB players will war against lb players as they should if they want to be plunderers. There will be no incintive to stay a tiny build anymore, so you will see wars open up to builds of all size. 100% support to this thread. Great job Versa!
Fact of the matter is that the bigger builds need to boost their adt and sdt and have the eq to keep this little builds from hitting them
Also people that cryed about the hitting range being to small then the devs made it much larger and people found a way to abused like they always will
Great post. And a solid workable solution. Additionally this problem only becomes worse over time as the gh get better n better equiptment
