What Type of Idiot Shields This Early?

Seriously? I know that points are extremely rare and precious, but come on. Such a dumb noob.

  • A genuine entertainer icon_e_biggrin.gif
  • Gonna break my shield in an hour, so i would appreciate it, if nobody attacks me until i can re-shield at 100. Thanks.
  • What type of idiot? Im pretty sure the unwise one...
  • Does this qualify as prop comedy? If so you are now the Carrot Top of MPQ. icon_razz.gif

    I am on to your tricks. You are trying to protect yourself from losing all the hard work of losing and retreating you did early to get that precious 500 spot. icon_lol.gif
    Some other lowbie might attack you, and lose and then gain that 500 spot.

    It's not about the HP. It's about sending a message.
    And the message is

    This is hilarious! Thanks for the entertainment, TU1 (a.k.a. Team-Up 1)
  • Don't be jealous of my mad shielding skills. I am here to teach my ways. You must:

    Enter bracket
    Tank down to 500th
    Put up a shield as quickly as possible
    Laugh at all those losing points while i stay protected
    Find nodes worth no more than 14 points
    Shield at 100
    Find nodes worth no more than 18 points
    Shield just below 300 in case of attack before you reach cover token
    Get token
    Re-shield
    Break shield
    Get scared and re-shield
    Slowly make my way to 900 points repeating steps Shield- Re-shield
    When pvp is in it's last hour, put up a 24 hour shield.
    Claim my 2 covers at a measly 2400HP cost in shields.

    The same type of idiot that uses AT&T as their mobile carrier apparently.

    Thank you for doing this. You are the man.

    Funny read icon_e_smile.gif
    Claim my 2 covers at a measly 2400HP cost in shields.

    Interestingly, even at such an absurd scenario, you would still make a "profit". Since each 3* covers cost 1250,spending 2400 nets you a profit of 100 hp icon_e_smile.gif

    Goes to show why ppl goes to such length to shield hop.. Since its profitable icon_e_smile.gif
  • Step 1 - Enter bracket
    Step 2 - Tank to 500
    Step 3 - Shield
    Step 4 - Shield hop your way to victory
    Step 5 - Profit!! icon_e_biggrin.gif

    You also forgot to mention if you have BWGS max covered already!! Also why not spend the extra 300 HP to get to 1100 to sell your 6th red torch? I know you want to!! icon_e_biggrin.gif

    My bracket leader has been shield-hopping from 400 points onwards - they must really want some GSBW bad.
  • I've got somebody in the 1 to 2 * transition shielded at 400 points in my bracket. Pretty sure it's not intended for our amusement.

    I never played PvP during that transition, so I have no idea what the dynamic is like down there, but I'd imagine the same way 2* rosters hit a wall at 700ish, 1* rosters would hit one earlier.
  • Agreed that the wall is 400-500, but wasting hp shielding at the 27 hour mark to protect a top200 (at best) score is not efficient use of resources.
