In theory yes, it’s based on the weapon rather than the hero, so hopefully the bugs we’ve been having with events won’t affect it. But use with caution, no actual dev comment on this yet. (I’ll add the Q to the OP in a minute)[quote=“MakoSipper, post:5, topic:23038”]

1. Not sure why that earn in on the first question I quoted, based on the 2nd quote.

2. “When attacking, this is the case” also confused me. Maybe it’d be better worded as: “The attacking team does earn less points if it’s missing troops at the end of the battle”? Because there are defend teams “when [you’re] attacking” as well, it’s just not your team.

Apologies, some of the questions I copy pasted from some of the other threads. (which is where the “When attacking, this is the case” comes from) I’ll clean them up a bit.

So yes, you still gain some (albeit a lot less) points when you lose while attacking. I’ll add it to the FAQ.
