View Full Version : Why would somebody do this?

I'm trying to work out if I'm missing something here.

This person keeps raiding my defensive and boost buildings on my base.
Sometimes they will even miss raiding my money buildings to raid my defensive buildings.

What I don't get, is that this doesn't bother me at all. - I lose nothing, and they gain nothing
It takes me 10 seconds to "repair" all the buildings, but would have taken the offender ages to attack them all.

Even though the taking down of my buildings might temporarily reduce my defence, this person is more than strong enough to beat me without taking my defences down.
In addition, being a regular player, I repair them, usually within 10 minutes of them being taken down.

The amount of time and stamina invested in attacking all my defensive buildings seems pointless.

Do people get extra BP or Exp or valor from attacking defensive buildings, or is this person a bit simple, or am I missing something?

Probably the Cartel guys. They are real losers!

He will get bp points. Its easier to raide some one then attack them.
And big apple just told us he have been raided by the cartel

Well considering my defence is 350k and his attack is 1.7M, I don't think he's raiding because it's easier... He also hits me for my over vault cash before he raids...

As for the BP points... is it more for defensive buildings over cash buildings?

Maybe he has a lot of '+2 valor on raids' units. This would make him a lot of valor. But with 1.7M stats, what use are valor units?

Many possibilities for this -
1. Maybe he just wanna annoy you
2. You may have left his faction
3. He maybe your real life enemy


And so on.....

Maybe all 3 of these things are correct...
But what doesn't make any sense is that it doesn't annoy me at all, it doesn't affect me at all...

It seems like a waste of his time...
So I guess my thoughts, that he's an idiot appear to be spot on.

I often raid this way for battle points, i don't typically take the boosts though.
Just shows they don't care about your money - a "friendly" raid, as you say it takes you mere seconds to rebuild them.

Maybe they are trying to make u lose units if he has a beef against u

Mainly to increase their battle points. Its better this way rather than to ruined your stat losses.

Not for battle points! They get less battle points if they take out boost builds so maybe send them a message?

In addition I hit every building of a player that was annoying me with hits. Then a faction abused my second account so I screenshot each player and sent my faction after them and we done same to several
Players constantly for basically being part of that group

Maybe the player leaves their device when they go to work and their pet cat or dog is actually playing?

true, but maybe thats his/her formula for getting the boss. i follow the same routine with spawning this boss and it works, it differs for some.

Hey Wingman GRI, why 2 forum accounts? Use Big Apple to troll?

Maybe the guy is just going for battle points and hits everyone boosts. Maybe he doesnt want to take your money and taking boosts doesnt cost you anything to repair

Or a Beta tester making some test for the next PVP LTQ

I agree with Big Apple Durt.

... Because you are big apple. Split personalities huh.
My suggestion would be to just use 1. Makes it easier.

Perhaps the player was being considerate and left the lw money buildings and was going for points as others have said.

Our Parrots have spent gold as they run across my iPad. Their feet are capacitive...

But from what I see these attacks look personal.

Hey OP hows things?

The people that do this to me do it for BPs - friendly way of gaining them.

Or cash builds simply weren't available for collect or raid at time of attacks

First : haven't you posted a thread that you are quitting the game? twice?
Second : I think you don't know the Wingman. If you knew him, your post would have been an ass kissing one for sure.

Has happened to me a bunch. I thought it was someone beta testing the next pvp ltq as someone said earlier.

Same here JHenry02.
I done repairing them until the event is over and it hasn't even started.

Also thanks for the PM the other day, I got some.

There are some things that just cannot be explained. Just be happy he is not raiding your money buildings.
