> [@Ashasekayi](#): > > Higher statue levels can have higher daily color bonuses. That would definitely explain some loss - since our statues are still under 100 And I know I didn’t give them extra mana since they could single action each turn. I think I was penalized for cascades based on the number of actions I took each round. Talk about damned i you do and damned i you don’t It’s why I like our guild. We’re not playing to win anymore. If we do - AWESOME… we’re just playing for the weekly troops. ---

If you use all the same colors that corresponds with that day, you will get a 50% point bonus for each troop. I don’t see how your guild level statues has anything with scoring. The scoring goes by moves/actions, mana efficiency, damage dealt to yourself. If I am wrong, than can someone please give me a clear explanation as to why. ---

That 50 points is derived from statue level… If your guild statues arent 100 (i think) its less than 50 pts. ---

Took me forever to find it, but here’s confirmation that you’re correct (note that Ozball was not a dev when this post was written): > [@Guild Wars - FAQ](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/guild-wars-faq/23038/1): > > **Q. What is the colour bonus formula?** > > _A. It appears to be a base 30% + 1% per 5 statue levels. (Changed from week 1)_ Percentage calculations are done using floating point arithmetic, then rounded to integers (not truncated) – so a statue level of 98, I believe, is sufficient for the full 50% bonus. ---

> [@Trajic](#): > > It’s not 1300. It’s somewhat less for the 1st battle. > > … Just sayin’. Care to share your insights? I was fairly sure to have it pinpointed down to 1560 points for a 300 base score battle, after the update that gave actions taken a greater overall weight. That would make a 250 base score battle worth at most 1560 \* 250 / 300 = 1300 points. I haven’t paid it too much attention recently though. ---

It might be in reference to this, as @Mithran pointed out earlier you have to take at least one action to achieve the win: > [@Mithran](#): > > The best possible score for the first battle of Guild Wars would be 1298, since the 2.5 points you lose off the perfect 1300 score for taking a required action is rounded up. The best I’ve accomplished in an actual battle so far is an 8 action win I believe, with perfect marks in other categories. ---
