No Raid Boss?

[resk]

Are we having a RB this cycle? Listed events are box,LTQ and war.

[Cindee429]

Hope not ... Hopefully getting a much needed break from events.

[Weasel]

Uzis have not been dropping for long enough to run that event just yet. I like how it seems Gree is changing things up a bit, at least the order in which events appear. IMO the predictability of the cycle of events was losing its entertainment factor.

I don't remember exactly when these oddly named uzis started dropping, but it feels like close to two weeks. All I can say with certainty is RB events have occurred roughly every three weeks and that I can usually farm about 150-170 uzis from the time they start dropping to the time a Raid Boss event begins. I only have half that amount currently so I wouldn't expect RB to happen for at least another week, putting it after the next war.

Another point to consider is that Gree have mentioned something about a November expansion pack/game update (supposedly already live on Android, coming Monday for iOS). With this update the health for war and epic/raid boss events will now be separate, which means bosses and wars could be run at the same time.

I'd be shocked if they don't squeeze in RB. Most likely it will be a last minute change.

Gree developers said they'll bring new items to the stores, new buildings and new lvl cap in November. I'm naively hoping this has something to do with it.

No RB this week, yeah!

Another RB thread, yeah!

No info from GREE, yeah!

If you look back 2-3 or maybe 4 cycles ago, the RB event started following the current WD. we skipped a cycle just for war to finish at 2 and RB to start an hour later

It happened twice but both of those times RB started immediately after the first war in the cycle, not the second

[reticlover]

we had raid boss right after last 72hr battle.
next raid boss is next cycle

[B0ST0N]

No we did not.

We had it after the 24 hour war.. twice

[Vile Lynn]

I think the new CC Team is redefining the cycle.

[Tadaaah]

No Raid Boss this week, but expect one in the upcoming weeks.

[reticlover]

No we did not.

sorry, was thinking of MW

[Evan1000]

Maybe they're working on a new master's level and that's why we didn't have a raid boss this week

You could be right, we won't know until we see it. I'd be willing to bet there was just an issue getting the new uzis dropping, so the event was delayed to allow the same amount of time we are accustomed to for earning uzis before the event.

Tadaaah, you mind clarifying just a tad bit.
because
weeks is plural. Does this mean we can forget about RB next week?
pretty non-gree style, with uzis dropping last week if we are to expect an RB event "eventually"
please do not take this as a bashing or griping. simply a question based on your choice of words
Thank you

I doubt it lol.. think GREE cares if we have enough time to farm Uzi's?

[ghetto69143]

+1

Wait. Did you just use Gree & care in the same sentence?
Isn't that considered an oxymoron? or a contradicting statement? lol.
Sorry Weasel, but I agree with Evan on this one. If there was a an issue, they would have still released the event but then again, Gree logic

[Tadaaah]

Next week. Don't forget about the one next week.

[Weasel]

You guys are assuming there's a delay for new content. What's more crazy, that, or assuming there was simply an "unforeseen issue" that caused a delay. If they didn't delay the event to compensate you'd just get a bunch of angry people demanding answers as to why we were given so little time to earn uzis. Fewer uzis means less participation, which means less gold use.

So yes, even though we can buy uzis with gold and RP, I still think Gree would rather avoid causing unrest by unintentionally making it seem like they nerfed our ability to earn uzis.


Next week. Don't forget about the one next week.

If there's one next week, that will have given players about the same amount of time as normal for earning uzis pre-event.

[Vile Lynn]

I doubt GREE is giving us time to farm Uzi's, lol!
You're funny, Weasle.

Thank you for the clarification

Ever since we were able to buy Uzi's with rp there is never anyone complaining over Uzi's not dropping because there is no need, I buy over 200 Uzi's per cycle and still have over 4m rp left over, so I doubt there will be anyone complaining about an early RB

And also.. since when has GREE ever avoided or even attempted to avoid unrest? I think GREE strives to cause as much unrest as possible in a phone game. Lmao

If RB is next week when the cycle restarts does that mean we won't have an epic boss? Since that's when we usually have it

An Epic Boss event ended less than a week ago. Shouldn't there be at least another two weeks until we get the next one?

Usually, but with GREE's timing you never know lol, but EB is usually the Tuesday after war weekend along with an LTQ

[B0ST0N]

Sometimes when I'm bored, I like to lay down in my mothers garden out back and pretend im a carrot.

[Weasel]

I don't carrot all what you do when you're bored.
