There is still the fact that the match-making is completely atrocious. Why can’t we just fight guilds within 10 ranks of our own? (A #1 guild fighting a #10 guild for example?) Seriously. At least try to make guild wars resemble the old bracket type is system.
My guild hasn’t gained any points over the past two guild wars because we keep bullying lower ranked guilds. It’s not fun for us and not fun for them. @Sirrian and whoever else. Seriously. Take a moment and fix your RNG infested, luck based disgrace of a game mode. Or hire a programmer that can fix it for you.
Being able to practice and test next time will help a little.
Do they got the dont let defense use multiple mythics, why wand and stella but not chryssy, and or penalize them for doing so on the qol list?
I went 5-0 and had a lot of fun today using my alderfather team but trying not to enjoy tasting the salty tears 2 Much cuz i agree with somethings here
We don’t have the ability to turn on/off Astral Spire for The Training Grounds, and that makes testing for Guild Wars inconclusive. Purification, time warp, bountiful gems and other things help us…a lot. We do not have any of that when we are called to arms.
I doubt that they will listen to us. On any of this. Ever. But maybe at this point, we should have the option to turn Astral Spire on or off for Guild Wars. I would turn it off just because Guild Wars are the only real competition this game has left. Let people have all their extra stats and bonuses and still complain.
What a pay-to-win pile of garbage this game has become…so pathetic.
If we could choose whether or not to activate astral spire in guild wars, but we got more points without it, that would make the mode more interesting/fun to a lot of players. And more tactical to those willing to go without the bonuses and rely on their skill to win harder battles to rack up higher scores.
But we really need to be able to toggle astral spire on/off, or individual nodes (gold and capstone, at least) on/off. Ideally, there’s a bunch of stuff we might want to toggle, but I dount they’ll ever allow it. We’ll see.
Toggling in practice mode, absolutely needed.
Toggling in actual guild war, NO, please. It’ll just cause further balancing headaches, and I predict it will be done poorly, given the extremely limited manpower of dev team, let alone their not-so-great skills they had shown.
Disallow duplicates in defense is the first small step, that should be done asap.
It is kind of a double-edged sword that the highest-scoring room in a GW keep is “only” color-restricted – the loosest possible restriction in the game. Because if you are attacking a Blue, Yellow, or Red opposing keep, you’re almost certain to face a Takshasa team for any player that actually has one in their collection.
Another miserable GW event that’s directly tied to a poor Kingdom attack restriction choice. Not color attack restriction and not troop type restriction, KINGDOM attack restriction. I knew this would be the big problem with the new GW the second I saw it and this has been yet another glaring example. Zaejin was the only one that wasn’t awful.
But yeah lets just keep acting like the problem is 2 or 3 takshakas in a defense.. the same defense we’ve mowed down hundreds of times before.
For balance, i was really happy with my forest of thorns team. It had great synergy and went 5/0 every day.
I love the new guild wars. I do still think the personal rewards should be for participation not victories. And I agree the colour of the defence should rotate each war.
But wouldn’t having Astral Spire usable , in guild wars.
Actually solve all these problems, we have it in every other mode, yet every other mode is easy anyway.
We define our own astral boosts, like iv maxed the node which gives 70 percent chance of enemies missing extra turns. So that would help towards. Apothecary,Naga,goblins.
We’ve all chosen our own stat boosts on the astral boards, also there’s no complaints anymore over other modes, which is definitely a correlation of getting astral spires.
So can we have it in Guild Wars. And for the people that don’t want to use it. Have a toggle switch. And give them extra points.
Just a suggestion. But it would help a lot. For our kingdom attacks.
Ps. Just to add. And maybe I’m wrong. But in guild wars. Do we get the campaign weekly boosts to our troops. If we do. How come that’s acceptable, but boosts from astral isn’t acceptable. Surely magic boosts are magic boosts. No matter we’re they come from. And please no insane replies of 3000 words. About all the other astral boosts. And why there different to the campaign boosts. Please FFS. And yes I’m looking at you zuul.
Pps. We also get boosts from hero level, pets attained, guild level. So boosts are boosts are boosts. There’s no reason to not have astral boosts, if boosts are bad. Take all others away.
Also just thinking outside the box here. As I play a lot of arpgs and RPGs. If there was a reset of astral points. 1 day before guild wars. That we had to pay a gem fee to use.
We could set up our boards, every guild wars. For the upcoming war. Obviously this will be a lot better. After we have all the troop and kingdom boards. But this would be epic. And all losses would then be our fault. On how we built our boards. This is a lot like the diablo 4 and POE method of building boards.
Days of 5/0 being a representation of GW is gone. Because now there are way too many clarifiers.
Such as was the Palace set defense faced and beat?
Was it actual human set defenses with hero classes selected?
And even then, what was the actual Palace defense faced?
The only reason there is not more outrage about how crappy this week GW is because simply not every player is experiencing the same game.
Human vs human set defense this week not fun. Human vs bots set defense.. completely fine.
I was actually agreeing with everything you said until then. Lol.
I guess the only criticism is that astral spire gives boosts that people can pay to get more of, and most players who care about guild wars want it 100% free of anything that could be pay-to-win.
So what would prevent a player losing 5 0 every day. Not trying.
If he’s getting rewards, the same rewards as someone trying to win .
Seriously bad suggestion.
Also as someone who buys 3 shiny keys every day using gold marks. And I’m level 1803. 3.3 mill population.
All these nay sayers about gold marks. I’m assuming your all level 3000. With 5 million populations. And a CEO that can buy every shiny key offer lmfao.
