I could really use some help

[out of names]

If ur a top 600 syndicate and your dl has def of 250k+, then the opponents ur facing are most likely in the top 1500-400 range and most of the defense leaders in those syndicates are under 150k sometimes under 100k so if your defense leader is active, you could use him to hit the dl with a regular hit, saving 7 hits that can be used against the wall

True, sometimes we get the crap beaten out of us!! I mean really bad. We've been matched up with groups that placed in top 200 in the previous battles.

Really, was having a horrible day. I guess as a woman I take things personally. That really did put a smile on my face.

If you ranked around 600th, then going by the results posted your group made about 400k points, and was 200k out of 500th. Others have mentioned minimum point requirements etc, so I won't get into that.

We have 33 players. Not all are terribly active during battles tho. They do fight, just not as much as the others.

Seems to me this is your biggest problem - it's harder to improve with half a team. Let's say you add 20 more players, and suppose they're really bad - much worse on average than the people you've got already. Say they only score half as many points per person as current members, many of who you say are slacking. The twenty still add you 120k (400k/33 / 2 * 20) points, and that gets you a huge part of the way to 500.

I would say you should prioritize getting more members, even at the cost of quality. Don't worry overmuch yet about freeloaders, just add people and you'll get some mix of good and bad members. As the points tally and rank improve you can do more quality control, plus your team starts being more attractive to stronger players.

How many bonuses does your syndicate have?

That's what we were discussing. Adding more members!!! You just proved me right!!!!

Don't increase for the sake of increasing...cut the crew lean...anyone under 5k IP should be gone and make sure you have a solid 15-20 players. If you have 4 gold players and the rest over 10k you will hit 500...but fight consecutively...first battle...all fight...second fight is strictly defensive but let gold fighters poke around and ring a g-spot while the others rest...third all fight...you will usually get a couple thousand IP in the defense battle...and stay positive. Be a leader and keep it organized and simple. And if anyone rocks the boat cut them. This plan got me to 500 my first battle...I'll probably stall out at 250-400 but I'm not interested in going uber-c.c geek to get there. Cheers...and if you ever get stressed I think project phoenix is offering a mental health session on the forum. Cheers. Good luck...
