Anyone have an idea of the exact factors that go into matching up factions to fight each other during Battle events?

Are these things taken into consideration?

Number of members
Levels of your Memebers
Skill Points of members
A/D of members
Points so far in the Battle

Thanks in advance

I suppose those things factor into the equation Gree uses.

But, if a 2 person faction XXX was paired against just 2 person factions, and XXX ran up 5,000,000 points; they could be a top 10 faction very easily.

I'm sure other unknowns are factored into the points a faction receives.

I don't think anyone, outside of Gree, could answer definitively.

I remember a certain top 5 faction being matched up against a 1 person faction that was a hacker.

The guide states "similar attack strength", though this did not seem to pan out very well during the event, most likely due to unofficial game "manipulation".

It does make me wonder though, if they are able to determine a factions overall attack and Defence strength then it cannot be that much more difficult to vet that information to highlight the more obvious elements of manipulation that the game experiences.

I anticipate that the initial stages of the upcoming event will have emphasis on the positions of factions from the first event taken into account making it unlikely for the 2,000th faction to come up against a top 100 faction straight up.

I'd really like a better of idea of how they are calculating it

Don't forget an element of complete randomness and opposite logic

total strength and member count should be considered also. 4 high leveled players vs 30 low leveled players....first ones could hit everybody....out of the 30 members, noone could hit the 4, cause they where all too powerful for any of the members...but total power was the same for 4 members and 30 members.

We've doubled in size since Brazil should be interesting to see who we wind up matched up with
