So seems that we got a cheater to lead arena rank this week. https://m.facebook.com/groups/120826...69045903125743
And yet I remember when I was caught exploiting arena I got banned for 1 months and this nutter hasn't received any punishment yet. So devs are we at the last coffin of dignity left to this game or are you going to investigate and eventually take providments before the cheater get eternal????
your link is gone
or maybe it is because im not a group member.
The link is still available, but I believe need to be signed in the fb group to see it. Btw here's a screenshot Attachment 5569Quote:

But his defense is easy to beat thats for sure so I always revenge him (well those 2 times we can per day) and everybody should do so to bring him down :)
That's the same one I complained about earlier without mentioning names. He never attacks me unless i have a lone Eddie. He hit me 3 times in 5 minutes, 6 times in one hour last event. If he is using ironite to refresh then NF loves him.
Update: 9 of the 10 on my defense tab are attacks from him and 37mins in total!!! Yes, I have a lone Ed.
What teams are used to beat Selair? Please give them so anyone may attempt to beat him that doesnt have a lone Eddie defense.
In all my three years of game I never seen and couldn't even hit the same player so many times in a row. Probably I'm the dumber here, but so many times I did refresh sometimes I couldn't find a specific player.... There is definitely something wrong going on here so again I appeal to devs to check into this and make sure no any type of exploits is going on.Quote:

This week he hasn't attacked me because I don't have a lone Eddie, but other weeks he always attacks many times in a short period of time. It is not the first time he does that.
I hope they investigate this situation.
2 more attacks from him within 3 minutes...
Edit: and just the next one!! I mean I use a lone ed to get beaten, that's ok but in that way?
Edit2: 6 attacks in a row within 35 minutes...
I think that the only way to stop him is to take off the food, putting full defence up..
We've investigated this account's activity and he's not doing anything strange or suspicious, just playing a lot and picking easier targets to defeat quickly. I imagine his win rate will go down towards the end of the week as more people put up their "real" defenses, closer to the reset.

Thanks for the clarification KAZ, I can't really understand how he does it but if is not exploiting nothing, I put peace and stop to stay after him.... everyone can do whatever they want with their own ironite, if he likes to refills looking for easy targets he isn't doing nothing of illigal. Obviously this way to earn points is far way then rewardable but that's an other story.
He must be spending a ton of ironite on refreshes since he never hits a strong team. No one has his luck in pulling the same weak players every refresh.
If I win several battles my opponents are always higher rank than myself, sometimes the top 15. How can someone with so many wins pull much lower ranked players repeatedly?
If there is no cheating involved, there is something wrong with the matchmaking. Is used to be that way that number of attacks, being attacked, the ratio between and some other criteria are involved. No way these criteria are similar between him and e.g. me... So I should not show up on his list every 3 minutes.
Indeed this is what smell bad here most. When ffe was dominating arena, back to the days... Sometimes I was refreshing to avoid him paired with gimp kp and Charlotte....but most of the time I simply couldn't found any weaker defence teams. This guy instead every refresh found single eddies...go figureQuote:

This should be a further motivation to change arena matchmaking and the battle system.... hope that is part of the improvement they did announce about what they re working on
Preach Brother. Single Eddies = 1 rank point. Problem solved. Events unaffected. Rank can't be manipulated. People will still sped ironite on SOW. Fixed.Quote:

When people put up the single Eds it's usually for the event and community benefit etc etc and all that jazz, but it breaks the new arena rank system even more than before. Especially when there are half decent rewards now like cosmic stuff. I do like the improvements though please keep them coming!Quote:

Yea that's a double standard and not fair to Felice that he was banned. EXONERATED!! :cool:Quote:

Is anyone still getting hit repeatedly by SelAir?
I haven’t once been attacked by him and he was on my attack list maybe around 20 times so far. I attacked each time I saw him and won all but 1. Not sure how I lost that one but it happened.Quote:

Seilair may have figured it wasn’t worth it with less single Eds in the lists but on the flipside he could always come back and continue doing it at any point. I’ve seen him gain 4K rank points in a day which is insane. That cannot be contested with by clearing lists and I lose plenty against the teams I face too. tThen have to keep trying without the bonus until I can either win or it auto refreshes. I’m usually able to do it within 3 tries but there have also been a few times I lost 5 straight and did the free refresh. So yea if they imposed some sort of restrictions on refreshing or made single Eddies worth 1 rank point or whatever, more people may like to compete. I only played arena this much once before last October and am only doing it this time because I have time to kill right now and need to zone out and have an escape. I chose playing in the arena as it’s oddly soothing to watch the graphics and the cathedral after being away from it for awhile. I hope if they change the setting again that’s it’s on par with the Cathedral as far as graphics.
Your sittin pretty for eternal. Let me know what legendary cosmic u pull with your area rewards
I’m not counting any chickens but yessir. I will if I get it. Did you get one or did it start after? I know Patrice got one. I haven’t checked—does it guarantee a T2 minimum or something? Or a color quality minimum? I like cosmics a lot and when I first tried them I would do all 5 sets and a cosmic on anyone I could in Gauntlet. But I learned from some other guys like Lufata that some toons are better without them.Quote:

I didn’t pull a legendary cosmic (but is was a possibility) I got 666 ironite, 5 skill shards, 3 normal cosmic talisman souls, 100 eternity soul fragments and a gold medal soul.Quote:

I also now have 2 catalyst souls but I’m not sure if they were part of the rewards or I got them from the event. Unfortunately I cannot put this stuff into the book of souls because it keeps coming back and doesn’t update that I’ve converted them on the game servers. I heard it happened before and that they are working on getting that sorted out though.
The possibility of a legendary cosmic is kind of cool though. It’s a big reward and shouldn’t be earned weekly to keep it rare. I’m cool with the rewards. Wasn’t really playing for anything except to zone out and kill time. It was relaxing.
Thanks for the update, i thought the legendary was a reward but i misread. Congrats on eternal, that was a crap load of points you put up.
Zugzwang definetly earned the eternal position week.
