Sitting like a Log - Manipulation of the PvP Point System

[Monte47]

No defenses hold consistently haha. Doing another expiriment and seeing how crazy I can get incoming attacks to flood me on the last day Didn't really think I'd even stiff the top 3 doing so. You guys are all lazy today!

Haha fair point. I'm just a little bored this week. I can't do anything right now without spending some cash, and I gave them plenty last week lol. I just want that damn Shaman before the souls end. I love when he rips his heart out lol.

Haha, that's great. Pretty much shows how the current system is broken. I've realized that this week, with how close the top ranks are, the final outcome may be more dependent on how lucky the top guys are in not appearing on attack lists vs. how quickly they actually finish fights. Speed will still matter quite a bit, but if one of them ends up getting attacked a bit more than the others, then that bad luck could lead to coming in 2nd place. Yikes, what a messed up system!

Exactly - although how often you appear on attack lists is more strategy than luck this week. I'm not sure if Go80sMetal or Slauki plan on making a run for it, but they've been slow and steady - and that should work to their advantage. At the same time - there are some really quick players here - so in the end - speed may just win out once the rush starts

May not be crazy. You're in first - and there is still not a lot of activity - so attacks on you may be light. This could allow you to get far enough ahead that the later increased attacks (once activity amps up near reset) can't compensate for the fact that your lead is too big.

I think the question everyone has today is when to amp it up...

Funny you say that as I just did a fight and didn't pay a lot of attention but when the first toon was down I thought: "wait a minute ... didn't he just have the counter strike on - why is there a 2nd toon with one? I must have imagined it ..."

Hmmm didn't as it seems like. My fight was a revenge against Ryan

Noticed once yesterday but thot the same. Today both toons countered!

I've seen it a few times too. It seems to happen quite a bit when the other team has a character who can steal buffs, but my defense doesn't have one of those, so definitely a bug. A nasty one too.

Makes me wonder if the strike talismans are a one week only type deal. It's gonna get ugly with 2 or 3 characters per team with strike talismans...

(Emphasis mine.)

Are you sure they didn't just steal one of your Counterstrike buffs?
