We just completed the faction mission for day 1 and received the 7kA/7kD air unit with a 10% boost to IPH. Are you really going to give everyone 7 of these over the course of this event? We are all looking at a 70% boost to IPH if these units stack. What's next, a +50 energy regen unit for logging in?

Flynn i guess first we have no garuntee that they will repeat the same prizes 7 times (we might get something different tomorrow)

Secondly i highly doubt many factions will be able to pull off all 7 days.

5 will probably be challenging enough (especially if people finish too early)

Fair enough. So some will get 70% and the rest will get 50% if this event tracks the last and the daily prizes remain the same throughout. A 50% boost to IPH for completing the daily goals seems a bit excessive, don't you think?

Very few people will be able to get all five, most factions will only be able to get the first two, and maybe a few top fifty factions will get three and then the top ten will get them all.

I disagree. I attack many people with 6 or 7 wraith goliaths.

Not sure I agree with that, but even a 20 or 30% boost to IPH for completing a couple of daily missions is ridiculous IMO. The prize for finishing third a couple of WDs back was a 25% boost to IPH. Other WD cash boost prizes have been between 3 and 10%. Can't imagine too many will be pushing to land prizes like that during future WD events if they can pick up between 20 and 70 percent in a matter of days for dropping a couple of bosses.

My money is on another mix-up at HQ. I bet the 3% boost to sea defense was supposed to be attached to the daily reward unit, not the final prize.

Gree have fixed the coding from last event... Your wins do not carry... Therefore 300 wins today... 350 tomorrow etc... Over five days a faction will need 2000 wins... A faction of 40 will need 50 wins each at least... Last war you needed 500... And you don't carry your wins to another faction...

It will be pretty easy to get all of them. Depending on how many faction members you have.

50 members only have to average 12 kills if last prizes kill 600

Everyone in our faction can get to 70 wins now without using gold. We have a dozen or so that'll get 100. Some above that.

Thief, the splash screen for the Rebel Wing Bomber says
Faction (Daily): Battling Maria Rivera I
Well done! Everyone in you rfaction will receive the reward. Check back the next day for another Faction goal. Each Rebel Wing Bomber bonus will stack.

Also, under individual goals, "Ending Maria Rivera", it says:
Collect 5 rebel Wing Bombers by helping your Faction complete the Daily Battling Rivera Faction Goals 5 times

I think we can safely assume they will at least repeat it 5 times.

I do...but then again i think Income in general is obsolete beyond Donating to your faction....so its not really a game changer.

I agree with your betting the 3% sea boost was supposed to attach to the Daily Faction and not the overal unit.

The problem is getting 10 each day since they don't carry over. So it takes you 2 hours to beat the boss and you need regen time that means in theory it would take you 20 hours on day 7 to beat your 10 bosses. Also for anyone that can get above 100 there is no garuntee that any of those bosses will count. Then it becomes a balancing act on day 6 and 7 of those that need to get to 100 in a timely manner and those that want to sanbag themselves for the faction.

That was a glitched event that did not function as intended. GREE posted (see recent sticky) and addressed their fixes to this event.

My faction has it set up where you should beat a certain number of bosses a day. Say you're going to shoot for 70 bosses total, then do 10 bosses a day. Of course, we have some designated people that will do less, to cover for people the next day. The way the officers and leader see it, as do I, the 7k/7k unit WITH 10% IPH bonus will far outweigh any units you would get for beating bosses

People complain that money is pointless and now they complain that they are giving too much? I honestly love this much better. Would you rather fight someone with 35% more ground defense or someone you can give (upto) 70% more from raiding? It's a win-win situation to me.

It feels much like a once good game is spiraling out of control. There was a time IPH meant something but not anymore so this prize bonus isn't really a big deal then again why spend billions on faction iph increase. I'd just guess there was no long term plans made by gree or they are changing them daily right now.

I used to feel bad when I got raided for millions now I just don't have to try to spend it. What is there besides a faction bonus you can get from cash in this game?

It's not the game I started playing Factions were a big plus but the balance has just gone out of control and you can't plan anything cause they change the rules daily. Should we grow our faction for boss events? Shrink it for WD? Do we really care that much about a cell phone game that is kinda full of hackers anyway?

One piece of advice to Gree pick a course, plan it, publish it, and stick to it ffs.

Wraith goliatha DID STACK on iOS. It even said so at one point in game on a splash screen, I'm pretty sure.

This IPH bonus will stack also.

It's the bricks that are in short supply for some, not cash!

How about a brick generating bonus, Gree?

This will once and for all level the playing field for factions vs hacktions. Only people who don't care about this are legit factions at the top with incredibly huge IPH members, and hacktions that have all the bonuses already.

thanks gree for the awesome unit.

No - they just had a bug. 10% Cash was supposed to be for combined 100 + 5 Faction. 3% Sea defense was supposed to be for each daily faction. As the monopoly card says, "Bank error in your favor, collect 70% bonus" - or something like that :cool:

I hope you're joking on that one (brick bonus). All you need is active players (not a ton of campers) to go out and hit people. During wars/FvFs most teams (with active participants) should be receiving plenty of bricks. Plus I would imagine that most factions from the top 50 or 100 down aren't going for 60-70 level 15 walls (unless they have a ton of cash lying around and all their boosts paid for, which brings us back to THAT issue).

I would tend to disagree whole heartedly. It's 14,400 bricks for 60 lvl 15 walls. We're a top 250 team and have been for some time. 48 members. Active members. No, not top 50 active, as per our placement. But top 250 in WD and fvf normally. We're still 5400 short of that 14,400 goal. Maybe we'll get it before Mexico, but I doubt it.

On the cash issue....do you see the costs associated with lvl 7 upgrades? Look below at our bonuses. We've been in existence since day 1. Every bonus we have bought has been legit. No cash hacks...and daily minimums in place with many guys donating far more than their share. Almost a year has gone by, and we're not close to maxing bonuses. I would venture to say that the majority of legit factions outside the top 50 are in a similar situation as we are. I think this is grees answer to cash hacked factions. Give the legit guys and opportunity to speed up some of these multibillion dollar bonuses. I think it's a great thing. But then again, I expect that we will complete 6-7 of our daily goals.

Good point, we hav 55 lvl 15 walls bricks remain 32,000. yes 32K well more than that but just round up. but not near max on bonuses.

10-15-2013, 09:21 AM
@CJ D i would simply consider not building lvl 15 walls. Yes they are nice to have but in the end they don't do a whole lot. I would say perhaps build lvl 10-13 walls. If your on a win streak than before declaring then build a lvl 15 to help up your chances of continuing the streak....but thats just my 2 cents.

While it is always possible there is something that documents this statement, I haven't seen it. It is always possible something is buried in one of these other posts, so I would suggest posting some supporting statement from a Mod or some other valid source.

At this point, absent verifiable sources, that is a highly speculative statement, or you work for Gree with inside knowledge.

Found the Mod post increasing the 3% Sea defense to 20%, but nothing else yet.

If you have a accessible source, please post here for the rest of us.

Thank you

McDoc's correct in his assessment.

Isn't that the entire concept of competition?

Some will coordinate and win the Bonus, some won't do quite so well and won't get it.

Wasn't aware there was supposed to be some guarantee everyone gets the bonus.

Sorry, but some win, some lose....

It's not a problem for anyone. Those who get it will become more profitable raid targets and less frequent raiders so everyone benefits.

You are right that it's speculative, I disagree about "highly". The last boss event had a 3% ground def bonus per day. This one would have had 3% sea def bonus per day.

We all know there are bugs in different data pushes and features. Look at last boss event, look at the starting clock on this one, look at the FLTQ that only required 1 kill per task.

So, my (reasonable and very likely) speculation is that there was a bug, glitch, mistake. Call it what you will. And the change of the combined event prize from 3% to 20% is indicative of trying to fix it, like they did with the quickly deployed 2nd FLTQ after the glitched one with single kills.

It's a reasonable response from gree to an unfortunate but seemingly frequent occurrence, a bug in their event configuration. Don't take away the extra 10% output unit, b/c that would make players excited by it or who already have it mad. Just fix the big prize to be more worthy and let the event continue.

I need a faction that will let me join just for this event with the 10% IPH bonus. I make 45-55 million every 48 hours. In eschange I am willing to make a deal to donate a certain amount to your faction. I am really hungry for this bonus. LET'S MAKE A DEAL.

Please PM me.
