Thanks for the clarification. I was thinking x2x2 ---

Sorry šŸ˜‚ Yea I was gonna say. I one shot lots, using 3 , take,Khafrus or zargs. With Stella. Also caprichor with exploders. I get a lot of one button 1 shot kills. IV never had a problem, with the vp in PvP. But maybe itā€™s rough when your over level 2000. ---

Iā€™m really not sure. S1 I did in a couple of days. S2 I did in a couple of weeks. Since then I bounced between Diamond and Ruby for the gold marks. Didnā€™t even make Praefect last time. First time Iā€™ve tried the grind in months. And itā€™s stupidā€¦ ---

My issue is this. There is CLEARLY something wrong. We shouldnā€™t be getting opponents like this. Level 1400 with a team score of 5000 because all the troops are untraited, the hero isnt in a guild. Or worse as my OP showed. A (banned) player with just a heroā€¦ Its BS. Its not about the Vp being unfair. It is. We all know it. Why the radio silence??? ---

Silly question. But why does the opponent matter. Whether there real or fake, or level 800 or 2500. Itā€™s just information. Not important. Some are real, some are NPCs. Like GTa. All that matters. Is that your getting VP. ---

Thereā€™s the rub. Before I was guaranteed a 90 vp opponent if i so chose. Now its few and far between. Because most fights are this bot nonsense ---

Because it doesnā€™t affect their money. I do like this feature though it makes pvp quicker so I hope it stays ---

Agreed. Those of us above level 2k were already getting screwed on VP. Since they ignored that issue, might as well keep faster battles. ---

Ratti or whatever he is called went from level 3000 to 3040 in a few weeks, it looks fairly easy for them. I tried to ask him how he managed it, but I couldnt understand his german. ---

Itā€™s the base VP one screen shot is based 50 and the other is a base 90 VP almost a 100 difference per battle and when over 2,100 you might get 1 90 battle a week ![1000017419](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/2/5/25df56ac6f30b38aa4c25f198a2e1d3b57ab9dd0.jpeg) ![1000017421](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/7/c/7c08ef5f5d955fc859224ae17866f33468b40d44.jpeg)not to mention 8000 less in gold per battle ---

Now since the update that has broken the match making you donā€™t even see base 50 VP much as 2k player ![1000017422](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/8/2/82857ae9db4deae19ede870d4a10e525eddd524b.jpeg) ---

In a frenzy zone with no talismanyou will never get it doing the battles on the left has to be +90 on the pre battle screen. With talisman you can get around 375 per battle ---

Why players complain we donā€™t get the plus 90 battles rarely and a level 1500 gets them every battle and many have higher team power than me ---

I tried to read most, but not all comments. In short, VP never was any high for me (1900+ by now, but much lower when PvP was changed), but since battles are much easier and faster now, PvP is much more fun again. šŸ‘šŸ» ---
