    Oracle or any mod is this true?

    Rumor has it that gree is thinking about locking the syns during raid boss events. Is this true?

    Think about it in GREEs point of view.
    Locking syndicates = no moving between syndicates = strong players can't help weaker teams = weaker teams will have to spend more money = more revenue.

    Therefore, probably yes.

    This is the first syn event that they are locked besides battles, so expect this to be the norm

    They have been saying this for a while and if it happens they will lose money not make money,most of the teams that use jumpers would never complete it and are already spending money on gold...not to mention the gold the jumpers are using to get the stat gains...at a certain point most units from most events dont make it into our inventories so the opportunity to jump and farm lvl 100 bosses is worth it for us to buy gold. Its only gonna push more people out of the game , we enjoy the community and helping each other ... Gree needs to,focus on fixing their in game issues and customer support not worry about what the people who pay their salaries are doing to get a slight advantage.

    That sounds about right, however when top teams finish the raid boss they typically help other syndicates and farm at the same time using gold to power attack the raid boss as this gives a greater chance at obtaining legendary.

    Chances are that these so called weaker teams don't use gold as it is so by locking syndicates Gree will actually make less money instead of more.

    I'll get 100% confirmation tomorrow, but as far as I'm aware we still don't plan to. As has been stated pretty much every time this comes up, we don't want to have syndicates locked half the month.

    EDIT: Yes, I know they're locked right now, will have an update on that tomorrow.
