Reap what you sow!

Hello KOH community, as the titles says it is time we reap what we sow.. This thread is about the current system in place for events. There is a huge flaw with the current system, bringing great misery and removing all fairness from the game and event. I am referring to the obvious and sickening exploit many are using to gain an overwhelming advantage.

I am talking about people feeding higher tier nodes (lvl3+) to lower ranking people. The brackets are separated, yet many are exploiting the system. If you are in my bracket for example you can hit monsters at a maximum level of 6, this provides you with 2 boneyards (lvl2), giving around 40k in total.. The requirements for obtaining 3 stars (in my bracket) are 162k points, that means I would have to kill 5 monsters and gather from 10 Boneyards .... This costs me and other players who do not use exploit 58beerX4= 232 (killing each monster with the average 4hit destruction ) x5 = 1160. So to do it as it was intended requires 1160 beers to complete the event..

Yet someone who is given 2 lvl 3 boneyards instantly get 400k.....But they don't stop there, often you see them with 10million+, and this is what need to stop, bring back fairness, it's a solo event not an exploit event! I believe we must put a end to this exploit, and make it so you can only gather what you actually kill! This will not only stop the exploitation, it will protect smaller players from having their boneyards stolen from them!!

 

People can try to make it sound elaborate, and sugar coat it as best they can but it's just an Exploit at the end of the day, nothing more. You say the bigger player has to use beer,yes they use a tiny tiny fraction of what a normal player uses to get the same points the way it is intended! They hit a lvl7 4 times when the player would have to hit a lvl6 20 times to get the same amount of points, it is an unfair system for anyone who doesn't have big players feeding them!! I have spoken to many people, all of which are disgusted with how appalling this system is and how easy it is to exploit. I hope that ATA look into this, and puts and end to it.

How can someone realistically compete if they play normally ? And within the parameters of the game ? I saw a top LB player with 8mil in points, the highest level anyone in that bracket can hit was lvl6...So As a normal player, and wanting to compete and not using the exploit you would need to kill 200 lvl6 monsters! And use around 800x58 (46,400) energy...And they need to do that 4 times a day, still sounding fair ? They can't do this, usually the only one who like the system the way it is are those actually exploiting it. The system is unfair and impossible to defend the indefensible. But many will try, even when it plain for anyone and everyone to see.

 

The numbers come from my first hand Experience of playing. The tier I am in is TH16-18, the maximum people can hit is generally lvl6 nodes, these spawn 2 boneyards, which will provide in total 40k for both when gathering is complete..... The level 7 monster spawns 2 boneyards that give 200k for both when gathering is completed. The numbers mentioned above in the previous post are what is required to compete against someone being fed nodes. You cannot compete, it isn't activity neither as I have logged into every event and see the same thing happen again and again. It's an exploit, and it is simple if you can't kill it why should be able to gather it? It just screws over everyone else who isn't exploiting it, make it fair for everyone and have a level playing field. It ultimately means the best rewards are constantly going to the same people; those that exploit it. It isn't time, it isn't dedication, it isn't skill. So how do you expect people to enjoy it, and compete when they know it is impossible to win everytime ?

 

I do not believe in exploits (and do not use them) and I do NOT believe the answer to good spots on a LB is to exploit it as well. I do class this as an exploit, the reason is simple because I believe the huge advantages gained are in a manner not intended by the game designers. You are essentially trying to compete with the next bracket scores . I known you mentioned it wasn't bad when you tried but things change,i would highly recommend that you check it out again , just so you can see how it's out of control. I would imagine when you tried these lvls there wasn't much feeding involved. At least you can in part understand what issue many of us are having in the lower brackets

It has reached a point now where it actually doesn't even help having separate brackets. It doesn't benefit the average person, only helps create a bracket for the exploiters to get easy rewards for their acc. But I've said enough on this, I'll just see what the future holds. Enjoy your game 😁
