very simple : at the exact time the new event were released the waxing moon was in the ascending into the Aries side of Jupiter. meanwhile the sun blocked out the descending view of Neptune, Sagittarius and Scorpio. Fortunately enough the stars of Capricorn & Libra were untouched, leaving balance in the universe :)

Nice, this is equally as likely as:

Yeah sure, all we need to do is compute the probability of the consequential rare events assuming the psychological biases that make people individually and collectively blind to uncertainty and unaware of the massive role of the rare event in historical affairs. It's called the Black Swan Theory, pretty simple, look it up!

It's garbage there is no boss event. 3 LTQs REALLY!!! Gree obviously gets lots of people spending gold for the ltqs and not the boss events. That's why they do that. They don't care what the players think as long as they are making more and more money. Needless to say I am not participating
In
The ltqs

You're wrong. If you dont recall, they have done this before. I believe it was between 2 and 3 wars ago. Why all the crying about bosses anyway?

It does suck that there is no boss event but the way the last few boss events have been treating me i can't say I'm upset. I've gotten 2 rares out of the last 4 bosses. I for one prefer the ltq's much more as they are all about being active/spending gold and not just the luck of the draw. Plus as a higher level player i don't enjoy watching the new accounts get crazy strong off of them.

Boss events are going to be phased out and replaced by LTQ's apparently.

I guess this is the start of the phasing.

Skipping 3 LTQ's in hopes of boss events possibly coming back will just cause you to fall further behind. How many LTQ's with good prizes have their been in comparison to boss events during the same time period? You gotta stay up with the times or be left behind.

Shhhhh, let them fall behind.

I HATE boss events. Been over level 100 since the very first one so I've gotten to 23/24 with no gold (further with gold). My LLP got to level 30 (he's level 17) with the max being 5 hits. I could have gotten to 50 but chose not to. Jumped my stats about 3500 att/def. Why the hell should it reward the LLP's who camp and do nothing. Mine is merely for when I am bored. Happy the boss event campers are getting 3 LTQ's behind in stats...

Was it confirmed they were getting rid of boss events?

While I like the above quote very much I think they are just continuing to force people to level. I think bosses will probably come back.

Wouldn't be surprised if they started having bosses give a ton of XP or something though...

this is very true, a few wars ago they skipped the boss event s well. Does a collect 10 case event still exist ? I miss getting a modifier in between wars

They're clearly doing a 2-war cycle. This setup seems extremely similar to the one before last.

Resulting in 5 LTQs per boss - meaning that camping for bosses only works for a small % of players, which is (almost) as it should be.

A game where not playing pays of better than playing is a game that is broken.

Sadly, at the end of the day, this is still true unless they change the way IP is paid out for higher lvl players.
Low lvl players w/t high stats will always be more valuable due to them being IP tanks.

the odds are still stacked against high lvl players regardless since they have to spend more gold for same IP.

a low lvl player still has incentive to avoid LTQs even if at cost of minimal stat raise if they're already in a strong team where scouting is not an issue.

Until they become incapable of hitting targets.

Scouting for a top-10 team I more often than not found it extremely difficult to find targets for the 400k and under players. In another 4-5 cycles this'll probably be closer to 1m.

I haven't been falling behind at all. If anything, I'm catching up to most players(not heavy gold spenders). They should make it two LTQ's and one boss event every war while rotating the collect 10 and 20.

I am only level 21, do I need to be higher?

My data under "ABOUT" says - 20130715_11

Meaning I still have that data

Where I'm from its current 19h58 EST

You probably need to be around level 40 for this. Stay low and don't go over level 25 before the next boss.

How long before the next boss?
