#Make the next boss strike lineup difficulty the same for lvls 51-55 and 56 (51-55 difficulty at 56)

TIL
Alpha truck lives with like 40% hp
I thought it kinda filled the TK niche where if you want a unit dead you just point to it
While still being a bit frail
Nope
That’s Marty
It fails, then dies
Damage and piercing makes it more of a side grade to the TK than a strict upgrade. Sometimes better. Other times not.
That thing has like 1.2k pierce eHP
You’d need treb to crit 6 times to kill alpha truck
Nvm it’s 1.5k even worse 
Boar is the real unit that fills the TK niche

Mech units don’t count smh

Boars are okay but mech units are too far 😆
Hikari has standards 
Boar is at least weaker than AS frags 
@night spade can we have this sticker?
isnt ranged frag still considered better than mech arty and mech trooper
Imo no
Different roles
Theres plenty of footage of my MArty shenanigans around so go ahead
impossible to say really, kind of like asking if your legs are better than your arms
You could argue that RF has more effective alternatives for boardclear (once you start accounting for promos) than MArty is for its niche or Mech Trooper is for its niche
Ranged frag also just has lower power budget in comparison
the big 4 are LSW, Mech tank, Ranged frag, phalanx tank in terms of generalist units
I meant like... Can you make that available in the VF server because I am a server less scrub 🥹
Marty and mtrooper fill niches but the big 4 just kinda work everywhere
PArty replaces ranged frag hard
ranged frag can still tank
but yes in terms of aoe deal ofc party is at the top no question
Pierce type fixed damage is pretty eh at max level, and it’s not that tanky
not really, its armor resistances are literally nonexistent
doesnt it have fat base hp anyways and its cheap to heal
same reason why super tank is a good tank
Nope
Supers have good resistances on both armor and base HP
My R6 ranged frag was 1/3 HP after 3 SW hits, would’ve died in 2 more turns if it kept getting hit
I’ll do it tomorrow, remind me please
I don't have the eHP data for RF and Super but I would not be surprised if the Super has considerably more eHP for most damage types
the silver wolves are gonna tear everyone apart in this strike. 56 is the mark of death
being able to take 5 SW hits is pretty tanky compared to most other units :c
Do we need a best unit tier list???? 
It’s not lmao
so what outtanks the ranged frag
also this really depends on damage type no
Ranged frag eHP vs piercing is around that of a medium tank
Yea it’s pretty awful
yeah but ranged frag is literally weakest to pierce
it takes expl and fire like a champ
Ranged is only really tanky vs explosive and fire which are already uncommon
Well pierce is what you’re dealing with for SW
and expl and fire are more spammed in late game all things considered
and a lot of other stuff
Rebel is like 1/2 pierce 1/2 explosive
fire is the premier endgame damage type iirc?
Nah 56, punish the cowards 
Not even close
like a lot of things with pierce also get cooked quite easily, alpha trucks being the exception (which is why they're so dangerous)
but explosive is found often on hardened targets which are the guys sticking around
Pierce and explosive courtesy of phalanx and plasma artillery
And the AS frags
oh no as in what you're really scared of from enemies
Oh lol
your deal is just going to be whatever has big number
very true, which is why mech tank is ranked above ranged frag
🇸

Shell
i would put mech tank up to S
the two most important niches in the game are aoe deal and tanking
Melee above ranged?
Mech tank is slightly more specialized
Yes
melee's highs are better than ranged's highs
Endgame ranged is mid
but i think ranged's low is better than melee's low and that makes ranged the better unit
Tankier and more useful later on when all BSx are just vehicle stacks and the party has prep time
Also I thought the argument for the boars to be T10 were that they were worse than AS frags
its a qn of "assuming u have nothing else" vs "assuming u have everything else"
they're worse in the sense that they're much more specialised
they are ST deal
Mech trooper boar tier, slightly lower damage but much lower cd and same niche
They do 1 thing really well, long mainstay
an important niche but not the big 2 type niche
Direct
They are worse yeah
same reason why tank killers were important before 2.0
Surely mech troopers are above PEFs
B10 doesn’t suffer the need to kill the frontline first
b10 deletes something you choose
Backline dies to 1 PArty shot anyways
instantly take out the highest threat
Pretty sure an alpha truck can survive a B10 blast no
Not likely to
not usually
you have to roll very badly on crits/damage
Oh forgot about crits
b10 also has DoT rmb
I’d argue PEF is the best tank that isn’t a LSW and thus belongs higher because tank units are rarer
this is correct, two most important niches in the game are tanking and aoe deal
like thats why i think ranged frag is better - it can fulfil both of those niches by itself
Imperial fence technology> tanks
pef > plasma tank is a bit ? though
It’s why endgame boss strike formations turn out into this;

Folks, we passed 3k
i see lsw, mechtank, ranged frag, and phalanx tank as the big 4 because these are the units that are "if you have one of these you'll probably throw it into every fight you run into in the game"
yeah this honestly
ranged frag < melee frag once u have plasma artys hiding in the back
@echo grotto There are two suggestion threads that passed 3k and you started both of them. I crown you the ultimate ragebaiter 👑
but in a vaccum by themselves ranged frag > melee frag
2 melee and 1 phalanx to get you started and then just PArty until it’s done
even without the boss drop units its still 3 pef 6 party right
Yep
Maybe 1 wimp off to the side to kill the biggest target in wave 1 when the PArty is still prepping
plasma does not need a nerf
true, pulling random damage away can only be a good thing
laser units are so ass 💀
Railgun: 👁️👄👁️
honestly my main gripe is just the insane lack of tanking units for f2p
like its just cope heaviers until pef exists
Whales peak at supers
super > heavier still
Mega is garbage lmao
100 extra hp aint no way
honestly i think railgun are different then laser units
widget heal cost doesnt exist if the mega doesnt die
its like laser+
railgun was like coped in the story or smt
100HP versus 1000x the healing cost
they also are not that amazing if i'm remember correctly
Ah yes that’ll help so much when you lose 2 per fight anyways
its mentioned like twice and then stops existing
thats what the senty frags are for zz
This has to be ragebait lmao
i mean the main issue is 51+ enemies are tuned for promos
and we are not doing promos (thank god)

Nuh uh didn’t you hear BS2 will be stupidly easy for whales with AS frags mega will never die
Lossless BS2 here we go!
We can all stop complaining when we get the all immune, all powerful EMP rolypoly
i wonder how the general community will feel with a difficult boss strike
not the top 100 ppl
like the masses
and they lose their 20 heavier tanks
they're cooked
I’m not top 100 
like unbelievably cooked
what did u place
Not top 100 
iirc in z2 era most casuals didnt even have r6 wimp
discord is an echo chamber
Who knows, I’d honestly want to see it
let me GET TO KNOW YOU

Wait Wihvur did I beat your score last boss strike
i think that there was a ton of reception to "lowering BS point reqs" so
this is WAY worse than that
Isn’t this upcoming one going to be kinda brutal? These wolves got hands man
Yeah I didn’t have as much time to play so I did the required amount and stopped after seeing we weren’t gonna do T15
Any non-firemod BS at 55 or 56 is brutal
And unless people are doing NH, they don’t have a lot of experience with them
500 dmg crits cinema
yeah the elite units gonna tear them up
Same kinda
i just wonder if the devs would consider nerfing them
If we got raiders it would be just as brutal with 2 brutal bombardiers and 2 brutal brawlers per wave
as we don't got the promos and BS units as our previous generation
At the point we are right now probably not
raiders are tankier and deal a bit less
i have no clue which one i would rather
even then they were having losses too
idk i hope that the community takes the losses in stide
they see their 20 heaviers dead and think "oh wow i better produce more"
instead of " I HATE THIS GAME"
Im predicting that this boss strike will make people quit
I mean it’s a difficult balancing game
the main crunch is most of the people likely to quit because of expectation subversion are the new players needed to actually keep the game alive
Not that many tbh
because the veterans of z2 era know how bad the upcoming strike is we can take it in stride

if this is your first time playing and you went through firemod and was like eh its aight
You dial silver wolves back to recoil ridge SW and it’s a cakewalk
did u fr log into the test acc just to do that
its going to be so rough
LOL
Right now is going to be tough for everyone
its rly rly bad for game longevity to push new players away like that
like non z2 vets
i think that when 95% of the game is lossless
then basically the only event comes out
and then you get giga wiped yup
and you WILL lose multiple unit
Do you think the average person has r6 heaviers?
its a little jarring
They should put a “danger, very hard event prep hard” or something
nah LOL
Cause I don’t think they do lol
hell no
Not needed anyways
most casuals will be going into this with r4 heaviers max
same with my megas
I mean boss strike sounds so warm and inviting, I thought I was going to get some tea and cookies
R5 heavier and R6 heavier die all the same
You say that yet people genuinely think that
this is actually the logic behind me just keeping mine R1

It’s going to be tough since people’s expectations are inflated by Yuzul
Yuzul inflation? 👀
im honestly excited
the general gamer perception is that boss means free stuff for killing big enemy in 1x epic fight
yuzul completely mis-set expectations
How many points are you going for milky?
ok so u qualify as "not a plebian"
A milky million?
5 million
everyday my motivation waxes and wanes
it prolly depends on where PSC is
and what the t10 is
cuz if its a dooky t10
we prolly aren't pushing T13
They could all be r3 
Do I qualify
what was the roman politican system
it was plebians and smtn
partisans?
patricians
I’m the smtn?
we are patricians
No
we need to speak to the plebians
someone get their little brother on discord
and watch the joy drain from his eyes
as the chunook 1 shots his R1 heavier
Does little sister count?
@elfin heart we need a plebeian
they count
Oh
Yeah I can’t ping the younger one
As she’s not really a casual
i just had a silverwolf thunder crit my r8 snake for 486 damage
that pilot had a family
And now that family has an urn of ashes and a flag to mourn
500 damage crit cinema
the american way
magic buses can also crit tanks for 500 iirc
2% crit so every time i lose a tank to that i should get an AS frag smh
the recycled truck can do nearly that much, with 75% AP
I feel bad for anyone trying to use the arctic tanks the way they were intended
your laughing now
but when my tanks are immune to cold
i'll be the one laughing
my arctic tanks:
arctic tanks need a buff
The arctic tank equivalent 
Heavy arctic tank:
+
be fair the arctic tank is at least a medium tank
Ain't it just a slightly different Medium Tank? The main gun is litearlly "Medium Tank Gun"
Okay y'all new best solution to the dilemma: move plasma units down to 56
i think the only reasonable thing that came from this was lvl 56 TF2s and suburban
Yea dropping level 60 stuff to 56 is kinda needed tbh, you get literally nothing from 57-59
Oh god Hikari is gonna get 2 phalanx before the strike 
I dont mind her boosting the guild score 
I mean... You aren't exactly in the same guild ingame
It boosts the guild fame and by proxy mine too 
Never thought you cared about such vanities 😆
Bs score is temporary but guild rep is forever 
I'll take some 
My phalanx luck was decent in OG
I got a first kill phalanx back then 
No. Me. If I get more drops, it is because it was deserved. If y'all get more drops, it is because y'all are hacking
Don't lump me in with her, she has twice my drops and less boss kills
I got a first kill AS frag in OG and New BN, and a first kill phalanx in OG
Let's watch the pattern continue
No. I will steal your pattern
No, you can't 
Someone back in PWar already stole my originally fated first kill ironclad
-# I had weirdly amazing first kill only luck
What was the other one I started?
Need the devs to look at either this suggestion or TF2 unit level cap changes
Nvm PsychoCat started the pity system one. Thought it was you for some reason
I feel like level 50 should unlock TF2 R8

Nah because r5 demoman at lvl 50 are plenty good and there needs to be an incentive to go into the next BS wave bracket
55 then maybe
55 is in the previous bracket still
Thats why people were suggesting 56 so either you can stay back at 55 for easier encounters or go to 56 where its more difficult but you also have better units to make up for the disparity
TF2 uncapped at 56 but NH gear is gone since apparently 56 has 0 benefits
50 is fine yeah, the main incentive for 56 is NH and mass production of treb/heavier/et/prestige, it’s basically a “Do you want a slightly higher score in this BS or a better account in the future”
Hard to pick the prior when the rewards aren’t gonna be super good
Nah keep it at 56 there is 0 difference between 56 and 60 other than no tf2 units at r8. There should be zero reason to be holding back leveling through the game as that is not meant to be how it works
Ideally the game should favor being at a higher level than lower level when doing events if your lineup is solid in order to encourage players to play through the game and progress levels
A lvl 50 player playing with a very similar lineup and exact same hours to a lvl 60 player should not be outscoring the lvl 60 when the variables are identical. Otherwise this will lead to a mess like what is currently going on
If a level 50 player has the same lineup as a level 60 player that’s such a massive skill issue LMAO
Literally admitting you did nothing from 50-60
Will lead to a bunch of players finding sweet spots one might be as soon as tf2 is unlocked
Already are, 45 > 46, 35 > 36, etc
Level 50 with trebs, ET and MMarty

Might as well take away NH atp since apparently it doesn’t do anything at all
Holy delusion
Yeah free gears are useless
So useless
TIL
Having such a bigger army size is useless didn’t you know?
Limit yourself to 3 of each unit next time to do better :3
Nah no need to
The absolute genius in MCMan confirmed that 55 is completely lossless
Free boss strike lfgggg
I guess I’ll start getting some rocket trucks instead

Need to get some F2P brimstones
Explosive mod prep :3
Exactly
I’ll also start prepping my F2P account for max rank Demoman of which it has 0
Those 0 R8 Demoman will be really good for BS2

If I have some time left I’ll also do R8 heavy I guess
Won’t take much time since with 0 of them I don’t have any SP to grind or promotion timers to wait on
True!!!
Lets do level 56 TF2 in exchange for the utterly useless new haven gear 
Seems like a good trade since 56 has 0 benefits rn
I’d place one more tank but more tanks are useless since that free gear is useless
Trueeee, they never die anyways since 55 is lossless
0 heals required :3
Honestly if 55 is lossless why not just 4 mauler 7 soldiers
Sounds better ngl
Should add infinite bars to NH then maybe it would serve some purpose
Infinite bars and infinite skulls

Perfect
Who’s winning now
The famous Soldier Sandwich
Heres my honest question: why do you insist on keeping the 8% advantage of staying at 55 vs 56?
It’s a tactical game, using flawed game mechanics is tactics
This is the part of the game we all enjoy more besides the story (and Dr. Vogel)
God forbid a game has tradeoffs xd
So you advocate for flawed game features?
I don’t advocate for begging the devs to change the game 3 weeks before BS
If you wanna change this ask after BS2 not shake things up before
Youre acting like it would be super difficult to do for them
Nah, as the so many victims of tactical victories in history said “this is unfair, I didn’t know this was a mechanic. God please make it so that they have to fight the same way we did”
When did I say that?
Devs can change anything about the game at a moment’s notice lmao
They could throw crush mod at us 5 days before BS
By saying doing it 3 weeks before a strike
How is this your takeaway? No we are not, we’re just using it while it’s here.
If you wanna beg for changes do it after BS2 when there’s time for people to adapt
big change 
Staying level 55 isn’t an exploit. It’s foresight
Same big change as the f2p medium tank. Same big change as the increase of some fire units’ damage.
Missing out on weeks of infinite gears + throwing out all prep because suddenly you can use ET/treb at 55 as it turns out is pretty damn big
Youre pretending like 56 is at an advantage when you yourself admitted 55 has an 8% bonus
56 fighting 55 waves is not an advantage? Holy ragebait
Otherwise level up to 56
Then level up through the game as it was intended
?????
Lmfaoooo
Holy yap
“Let me fight easier enemies with better units like the game wasn’t designed”
yeah, the 55ers just seem like they're making excuses
anybody at 56 who cares about leaderboard, probably isn't affected much by infinite gears amd probably has better options than treb or can replace ET with cryos/frostbite
Might as well ask for 56 to fight level 50 waves atp
isn't it just Chunook that's easier at 55, or is the wiki lying
Chunook is easier yes (by 40 hp so it’s entirely negligible)
I mean it’s totally fair
let me bring my trebuchet to battles that don’t have much scaled to such massive single target damage 

Lemme start bringing out maulers vs level 30 enemies
Neither of those replaces ET, and no you’re wrong leaderboard players do care about infinite gears
While we’re at it, can I get 3 PArties. That’s not too much overkill for level 56 scaled either right?
Ofc not, fair and balanced according to our lord and saviour MCMan
Ad homenim
You love strawmen so I’m making some too 
Oh great MCMan please continue to explain how 55 is lossless and 56 is a wipe every single time
then why are some staying at 55, something isn't adding up here, and it seems like the benefit from infinite gears is, at best, below 8%ish more points on BS leaderboard
Ad homenim is not a strawman 
Strawmen, strawwoman but never strawberry
It’s very very few people, and I was the first person to hit 100 heaviers so I already had one of the highest tank counts
It benefits a handful of people who are way overprepped, that’s it
Way more people chose 56 because the infinite gears far outweighed an 8% point bonus
plus losses during bs are gonna be less overall with easier encounters prolly
But still a nuke
but thats a lesser point still
I literally told people it was a huge tradeoff, and not worth it for the vast majority of people
Difference is made up by infinite gears/heaviers
i wouldve only considered it if i got a frag, and even then i prolly wouldve still gone to 56
Then level up to 56 if its such an advantage
yeah repairing the 40 dead heaviers at the end is just gonna be nicer
When you can make up to 10 heaviers a day turns out losses don’t mean much xd
Bro can’t read 
Ladies and gentlemen as someone who tried to stay at 55 and accidentally level to 56 through mass leveling units I think we just need to sit down and enjoy the ride
It ain't a big deal
Stfu
It's funnier to stay at 55 to make you angry
it lives in your head rent free
The evil dr chop
I wish lmao
Once again attacking character rather than the point itself
It's not attacking the character if you're so dead set on it and it's funnier you're mad about it
My hero

This gif is my favorite
Yeah steady you, I screwed my level 55 up but got another frag
Oh no he’s back
Don’t let the mods find out
Oh heck yes ranged or melee?
Hes all of our heros
Melee, but we take it
How many is that
2 ranged 2 melee?
i'd say its a fair tradeoff, if you want a sizeable increase in scoring for 1 boss strike, sacrifice some short term scaling
Im simply disagreeing with counterarguments and youre bringing up tryna upset me instead of actually making a disagreement
4s
Mr 3 melee, where is the F2P AS guide 
only people who can take handle that downside are gonna consider staying at 55
You keep pushing her to level up 
The ragebait, holyyyy
You don’t understand tradeoffs aren’t allowed, 56 people need every advantage and 0 disadvantages
-MCMan
Imagine
4 melee?
Please make the F2P AS guide with 3 melee
that is how leveling up is supposed to work in a video game, yes
can i get one😢
Where is the guide Mr chicken of drip
Its very simple
Step one get 3 melee
Step 2 rank to r5
Step 3 beat sentinel
You're welcome
R5 
We’ll need to see how to use 3 melee frags to beat the AS otherwise we don’t know what to do
With 3 yeah ahahhha
Not R6 yet smh
Sowwy
Instruction unclear, fell into the AS spawning hole
How in the world is this still goin Drip
Kinda disappointed
I ran out of teefs

Excuse me
It's kinda dead, haven't seen anyone talk in the server for a bit

Time to get back on topic. Make 51-55 play on 56

I’ve been talking in the PWas server
i love it when the suggestion chat areas just turn into this

She’s using our funds for juggernauts how do I get a divorce
This is suggestions not DG 
Jedrek has the body and hairline of fish

it always turns into DG
Getting a divorce

You’re spending all our money on Juggernauts 
You refuse to watch anime with me 
At least this is public DG 
Maybe the devs can talk in here as well for previews
I'll watch anyways
She learned that from you
I can't sleep while sad

@scarlet hatch whys am I cookeds
I fixed my sleep schedule smh
until next bs
I'm going to bed yall - stays up for 3 hours more
My sleep schedule during BS was actually fine besides day 1
You’d think you’d fix your sleep schedule more often then
Bullshi-
Need to be really sick I guess
You’d think you’d fix your sleep schedule more often then
I slept 6h everyday wdymmmm

Blame my parents for that

I'd go to bed you'd be playing, I'd wake up you'd be playing
I don't believe you slept
That was day 1 smh
I did stay up day 1
That was every day you'd do that
Just hit her with the scoreboard picture 
Nuh uh
I'd wake up every morning you were in GF VC already grinding
That was one time 😭
She can’t count higher than 1
And I still slept 6h that night
I wasn't there for it, doesn't count
Time to get back on topic. Make 56 - 60 play on 61

51-55 play 70
add land dreadnought boss for mid wave to debuff lvl 56
I’m okay with that trade
Can’t hit anything but ships, air and sea 
just a massive defense then i guess
Time waster
skip all the formation levels and just have it instantly kill all your deployed units when you click "fight"
there, now everyone's miserable
4k health concrete wall
What can even hit dreadnought from land
tanks
mega tank hits ships yeah
yes
Everything you see the sovnav use
Reef bandit camp 
Oh right I forgot those existed
Tanks can hit ships to make the sovereign navy coastal encounters work
Acting like I’ve been there anytime in the past 3 months 
i have posted my suggestion
make dreadnought freezable
Throw in AS mid fight
No that’s BS3 Dr. Vogel
They don’t drop anything lmao
remove dreadnought breach immunity
allow kraken crits to do like 900 damage with breach
You should just go to level 56 so you can SP farm naval again then 

Kraken tentacle should be usable on land, it's just another sandworm
Ah yes level up for naval torture, my favourite
fair trade for the dread being able to oneshot the kraken tentacle
A ✨freaky✨ sandworm
That's why it refuses to drop for me
It’s intended game mechanic, staying level 55 to not do naval grinds is bad game mechanics
i forgot which guild did it but they had a trophy tag that was like, 4 tentacles gives u rated 18+


I remember seeing that too
We know someone who would like that 
The someone with 7 tentacles?
He’s such a tentacle enjoyer he’s got 7 of them

Is this suggestion going to surpass the pity system one to first one to 4k messages 
Holy yap 
it's possible, only a couple hundred more words to catch up
Poor Brio, he just needs 140 more days of begging and groveling
he will have 1400 days, while this thread dies in 30
where my rat king at bro
what if the solution to difficult boss strike was the rat frags that you get from fighting the rat king
He’s a false prophet
fr the devs be slacking
Nah that’s the solution to the teeth drought
it could solve both
“If you give a man a rat, you fill his rat desires”
20 cats in boss strike wave 4
that could be a good way to prevent people from spamming down rat frags
Just hit level 55, should I stay there for next Boss Strike? If it helps my army is 1 heavier tank, 1 heavy tank, 4 LSW, 5 LRaptor, 6 LBoar, 1 Ranged Frag, 1 Phalanx, 5 NT-1, 3 Nomad, 3 A-Grav
I wont go to lv56 before I rank up some laser snipers
No i think you shouldve stayed at 49
Cabbage my lover
😍
we can be soup together
Are we seriously still talking about this nonsense
Newsflash, humanity is selfish! Carry on.
No missile or gun in my soup
That number of likes looking nice so far maybe the devs will notice 🙏
No you said something wrong once you aren’t allowed an opinion
The people that preach tolerance often are the most intolerant 
And will defend those as well xD
To be tolerant you must not tolerate the intolerant
DEVS, MAKE THIS CHANGE FOR THE COMMUNITY SAKE
Madrona should let us all fight lv70 formations but give me a melee frag to compensate for it
what if for the tf2 units rather than uncapping them at 50, just move the lvl reqs to one rank up
i dont think that really changes any breakpoints for us now
besides maybe letting us 1 shot with a high rolled crit + 2 higher roll hits
also demoman is way too squishy at this point, to where you prolly gonna lose one per fight
i'm honestly gonna be suprised if they don't change anything about this BS because its WAY to hard for the average player (thats 51+)
maybe we are just doomed to wimp spam
Yeah in the end regardless I would be suprised if they left everything as is for the sake of less competitive players. The fact that even a decent amount of people were not able to do well on the last strike already tells me if nothing is changed then most players will get killed without some adjustments to difficulty
Last strike of you made a few dragons that wasn’t hard to achieve could do decently either low ranks
i do wonder what their "goal" set in mind is
like interms of units lost per attack
because theres surely going to be a good chunk of players who just freshly reached level cap, or just got at least 51 and have maybe 10-20 heaviers
and they are going to get demolished
which I really want a BS where we take losses, as the last one was fun but felt like more of a trial run
i just don't think we can afford 1 tank a run for the freshies
but i do think its a hard balancing act because the only other way i could see it is if you mainly just lost tanks to stray crits
1 tank a run is very affordable. i think this bs is going to kill more than 1 tank a run tho
which is kinda not fun either
for us maybe
i don't think its very affordable for a player who just hit 51 or isnt in a top level guild
nah if you have 10-20 heaviers and lose 1 per run
you can repair like 30 with a normal repair bay
so at least 50 runs before you start running out of tanks
you can repair like 15 a day with a normal repair bay
with like multiple hours lost to mismanaging the queue
the limiting factor is the army below 500k-1m imo
prolly
and anti air mainly
but at 8 minute runs and only 1 tank lost per run (which is super generous) your looking at 7.5 tanks lost per hour
that means if you got 20 tanks your done in 3 hours of playing
and you can only get 12 of those back a day
meaning about 1 hour a day (past day 1)
excluding the artillery
and all that stuff
thats literaly just tanks
a fresh lv56 being able to do t11 with a bit of work is fine
but rn the bs is going to be harder than that, much harder
another thing we desperately need for BS is more ground encounters with air units so people understand anti-air will be necessary
like 2-3 tanks, 1-2 mauler and chuckers ded per fight kinda hard imo
so the same player who did 350k may barely do 100k
yeah
i'm in the boat that they are gonna change it
because they knew about new haven
and changed it accordingly
i doubt that they wouldn't prepare this BS in the same way
I mean
Madrona can decide that t10 should be reserved for decently prepped players
and let all the ppl who underprepped eat dirt
true
stark difference from the first BS
but i understand the idea behind it
i honestly would prefer a world where t10 is acheivable to lower guilds
but really nothing past that
because i want them to get 1 of the cool unit if they put the hours in
just not everyone gets 3
If that’s the case I would like to see x3 at T10 then boar as T11+
It's another reason why I think there should be a t10 guarantee at like 275k-300k points earned.
i could see an "individual" BS rewards + a guild BS rewards
like
knock everything down by 1
so 2x T3 and 2x T7
but if you accumulate the points to match that tier for your guild
you get that 3x T3 and 3x T7 back (1 given to you individually)
therefore you cant piggyback as much
honestly in that system I could totally see t10 giving 1 T10 for guild points, and 1 T10 for solo points
but solo points stop at T10
T10 is achievable to lower tier guilds who are active and communicate
thats all thats required
its really easy, even if the strike is hard
for 100 people 125k
its REALLY easy
do yall know the points coming from each clear
?
for this one
generally
like 5-6k?
I wouldn't be opposed to that, but I think because it's a guild event (and guilds should, ideally, be hitting t7 at least and I'd hope guilds hit t3) only one reward should be given individually
if you cant do that, youre not playing the game
for a 100 person guild
I wont mind if the personal reward is at 1M points tbh
a smaller guild needs more individual points, but those points are easier to get
thats the tradeoff
give casual guilds carries more reason to push to 1M too
like forget the t3 + t7 individual, and just put a number for t10?
also this number should be unweighted
whether its 1m or something else, its important it doesn't have guild weight
The real question right now should be what are invasion rewards?
yeah tbh it doesnt really matter
if someone can push to 1M for a small guild 1.5M is a joke to them anyway
well i mean look at the evil corp guys
ok but tbf
lets take this BS for example
you lose like 2 r4-r5 tanks per run
thats like 14 tanks per day
i guess you can heal that many
nvm
yeah its pretty achievable
T10 is easy, T11 is where it starts to get more challenging
and u can wimp spam
and the guild you pick matters alot too
yeah, just a number of points to hit for an individual t10
idea is that it should be about what a guild would need to hit t10, but a bit higher to give players an idea of what they need to score in game because stuff being in game is important.
get into a bad guild, you get bad rewards
thats on the individual to find a guild that can succeed
bro
they have to annouce this BS
in game
like
this is crazy to not even have something in #📡-announcements
agree
it also needs to look achievable, too many players and people in general will just look at big number and think they can't do it or that it can't be done
yeah i think an individual reward system helps this too
cuz even if your guild isnt doing good, you can still reap the benefits of being a grinder
like it mostly depends on a guild getting a few frags on the top players and them doing a few mils
im fragless
for casual guilds I mean
i've currently gotten 2 drops since playing when it was free release
So much currently depends on frag luck
i think i'm somewhere close to
2/100 boss kills
so its probably all coming to this upcoming AS
for some funny reason I think Ive seen a few casual guild leads get an AS frag
probably god's will for them to carry and keep the guild at t10 and survive
lmao
yeah none of the hicom at PSC have gotten one
AP got one yesterday but technically hes not
i have to be first
Im talking abt like t10 casual guilds yeah, like those that really need a boost in a harder bs
Yeah they definitely gotta announce details on the strike sometime before the strike
So we know what to expect details wise
honestly like
releasing a "no losses" demo version
where you can fight 1 layout and see what its like
would help a TON of players
AP isnt the guild lead? or the hicom?
I see, I thought it is his guild all along
but me synth and jeff handle all internal affairs

I see
but he helps with stuff all the time
fair enough tho a guy cant do everything
at least one of my regular members got an AS frag
and made the thumbnail
I'm still AS fragless, and Tentacleless
we only have a single frag for the guild with like, abt 50 kills?
I identity as fragless till I get both frags
I may say MM from time to time but Im not MM btw
im actual t10 casual guild player
DHM 
i feel like
this makes the most sense for you
lmao
He is honorary MM 
I'm not from a top 20 guild...
NCR is not top 20
we gotta get a tank check going
in here
thats more what i meant
if you got 50+ tanks
you aint a plebian
should i force all 513 goodfellas to thumbs up this post
No lmfao
If DHM doesn’t get t10 istg
Shocked that one is still up
the last time we used the power we got 3 mavericks
They will lol that aint a concern 
Do you guys think PWX will take top 1 again?
MM will have to be sacrificed so they can fulfill their destiny
isnt wogga wogga sgt stranglers kid
@jagged sonnet To be fair, it almost worked 
They exist without my consent

xD
I didn't know about it (thankfully)
same
You heard it, i'm fragless according to McMan
@elfin heart @slender cipher
Silence bottom
Us fragless players ought to stick together, don't go attacking me 
I don't have both frags, which makes me fragless according to McMan

if kitten have no frag
then I have -1 frag
Im not even a fragless I have a frag debt
I dare not question McMan's logic
Also, not a kitten

Kittenbreaker be nice
56 wipe, 55 lossless logic?
In reality, only 56 at Vogel is ever a full wipe, unless you make bad decisions
not according to the logic

Vogel can full wipe you at lvl55
You can full wipe a level 55 Dr Vogel boss strike
Frags decrease the chance significantly though
Just get one then
ill just borrow brio's one
you can have one of my dexters
I only have one of the arms, therefore I'm fragless according to McMan 
maybe one day i'll have both arms so that I can ascend to the frag owner club

Typical cat, goes against everything unless it’s beneficial to him
I'm unbiased, not my fault that decisions outside of my control benefit me
Yeah definitely not a cat because unlike a cat you aren’t nocturnal and awake at 2:30 am making a ruckus
cats aren't the only nocturnal things on the planet
I can be nocturnal and still not a cat
dang it 
Since you eat all NM’s kibble
