    Sounds like we lost because we didn't let our stacks refill and play at the end of the event. Am I right or wrong?

    I know I just read the PVE guide again and definitely messed up my choice in timing especially in the last 12-14 hours.

    People get crazy for the new hero covers, the deadpool event was a nightmare in terms of rankings for me because even though i'm playing a bunch, there's people that just care more about it and play more, or game the system better.

    It seems like we all did good, how are we not gaming the system the way we should that is in the guide?
  • Nah, the reason we missed it was because two of us had scores significantly lower than 50k. We missed 100th by about 24k points. We all had scores in the 50k area, there was nothing the rest of us could have done to secure that spot. I'm not trying to call anyone out, just answering the question. It was most definitely not due to rubberbanding or mistiming. That would have only accounted for a few hundred points per person at most.

    I like what intelligent suggested but I don't know if we'd all be okay with it (I would be). If one of us knows they will be inactive during an event, they could inform one of the commanders of their situation and we could recruit a temp to get us into the top 100. There's even a stickied thread in the alliance subforum for temps looking for alliances and vice-versa. If you can find a replacement for me, I would definitely be willing to sub for you guys on an as-needed basis in pve.

    Also, sorry to see umbrus leaving. icon_cry.gif

    So, turbo you mean that we should replace the one that are not really active in this season with consecutive really low score, may be they are burn out and they need a break and we should replace them with more active player? We can understand that sometime you can miss some events, but when you miss more event in a row it's affecting the alliance, it's always better to have a score than no participation. Kermit50 and Heysid didn't play that much or at all in the last 4-5 events, if is not more for kermit50. It's is something temporary or not, I have no idea.

    Also, my son (veicard) left the alliance since he didnt have anymore time to play like he didnt play at all in the trial by combat pvp. It's bad he was just starting to have a better competitive rooster and was starting his transition in the 3*.
  • Nah, I mean a temporary switch on the last day of an event for reward purposes. If someone knows they will not be able to play and lets us know ahead of time, we can find a temporary replacement for that one event. After the rewards are issued, they would come back. It's not exactly fair to ask people to do that, but it would work in certain situations (such as last pve). If communication is good, it would be easy to coordinate. I wouldn't want to do something like that unless everyone was on board with the idea though. Some people may not put up high scores today but have in the past so... IDK. Personally, I would 100% be willing to miss out on alliance rewards if it meant everyone else getting top 100, but I'm not sure how others would feel about it.

    Also, the Venom heroic had extreme rubberbanding which made scoring in the 50k range possible for nearly everyone, so this may be a non-issue, and I don't want to jump to conclusions. It may not always be the case that one or two people are holding us back. We should definitely monitor our progress over the next few PvEs though.

    Hello Everyone,

    I'm not going to make 300 for PVP this time around. Got home real late last night and honestly just needed to sleep. The update screws with my tablet and redirects me to a website and the laptop I play at night battery died on me at midnight so I just threw in the towel. Will pick things back up for next one though. Sorry guys!

    -Jake

    Wow! Great job with the stats intelligent it bring more information. We can see our progress really easily and you have put useful and good information.

    Season V is ending soon in 3 days and we will be able to have the complete results for Season V with these stats. We have progressed really well in general but we will need to do a cleanup after this season. In order to succeed as a group we cant have a few people carrying the weight of people who arent trying at all. We understand that you can have some low performance or no scoring sometimes because of missing times or real live but when it happens a lot and in consecutive events, this is not helping the alliance at all. But if you are burnout about the game and your desire is not here anymore let us know, we will understand and maybe it's time for you to leave and may be come back later, the door will be always open to you. Thanks to everybody that are keeping us to stay afloat.

    Don't worry thejake01, you are doing a great job and you are contributing really good so far in the alliance, and even if you didnt do as well as you have planned you where able to some pts. And on top of this, you still have a really good average. And thanks to advise us, it's really appreciated.
  • Hi Guys,

    Have you decided to remove me from the alliance? I see that I am no longer associated to one. Let me know and I can find another.

  • Hi Guys,

    I see that I have been removed from the alliance. Can you confirm if this is for good, if so I need to look for a new alliance?

    Sid
  • Hey Malorick. I can't reply to your PM, so I thought I'd reply you here.

    I have decided to join your alliance, and I have already applied for it ingame. My IGN is davvvvvvvid, please accept it, preferably before the PVP event ends.

    I look forward to contributing to our alliance.

    Cheers!
  • I can't take another season of this game, sorry. Got other things to do. I'll probably keep playing but not nearly as much as I used to.

    Thanks for the five seasons.


    @Sid I have no idea, but I couldn't just make a post and leave yours unacknowledged!
  • also, forgot to say bye in the alliance chat, so BYE.

    Heysid, I sent you a pm.

    Thanks for your contribution turbo, if you want to be back, think about us. Probably, we can have a place for you.

    Hey all, do you happen to have room for me again? I'm ready to jump back in for season 6, though impossible I would like to use my **** iPhone roster instead of my established Steam roster. Top chars are 1/1/1 beast and 0/1/1 Thor icon_lol.gif I plan on traveling a lot for the next few weeks which is why I ask to use the mobile account. Will be decently good at pve though. Let me know, thanks!
  • Can you guys explain PVE to me in idiot terms?

    I know that there's rubberbanding and then there's non-rubberbanding events.

    1) How do you know which events are rubber band?
    2) When should i start clearing the nodes?
    3) How should I clear the nodes? Do i not clear the nodes once every 2.5? 3? hours, ie whenever the bar is full?

    Hi Metalikajake

    I am still using OBW+Thor or OBW+Ares or Daken+Ares, Daken+Wolverine, Ares+MN Mags. classic Storm. But now my hulk, psylock, ragnarok, the hood are part of my team since they are at level 100. I didnt really liked Bulleyes, but Cap was usefull in pve against goon and he his boosted often. Tiny torch should be usefull byt I didnt spend iso to use him but It seem to be good.

    This is for Malorick - I can't PM you back (new to the forum), but yes I do want to join up.

    From what I know rubberband is on every event but we never know if it will be strong. So what I do, and it's working fine (finish always in top 10) is I do all nodes and wait every 2.5 hours and restart. And in the last 1.5 hour I clear all the nodes starting from the one with the less point and grind it until 1 pts and then go to the second one and I finish with the big nodes at the end. Normaly I try when the events is starting since the nodes are easier at the beginning.
