  • It's an error...

    It was supposed to display the Fatal Attractions results but D3 screwed up and never bothered to change what they'd set up once the season got pushed back three days.

    Seriously? I just was hit by someone 1000 points below me in the shield simulator. I'm at 2796. Gushda is 1739. How the tinykitty is that possible?

    I've been seeing people with 2000+ ever since I started from 0 yesterday.
    Which is why I plan on shielding once I get to my desired range. Shield sim is even worse than PVP with giving you targets waaaaayyyy out of your points range.

    I thought I could do two matches. I was unshielded for six minutes total, but still got hit. Guess it will be have to be one match/shield until the end.
  • Next season, I doubt I'm doing the simulator before a week left in the season.

    The way the match-making goes means that it would be a target-rich environment.

    To try to avoid rollercoastering, I started Shield sim three days before the end of season 1 with the idea that playing it a lot friday and saturday and shielding up for 24 hours would protect me from the brunt of counterattacks/wasted effort

    That became six (?) days thanks to d3p icon_evil.gif

    And what exactly is your desired range? I'd like to think that 2500 should be fairly attainable...that's my starting point at least...hopefully.

    But you can win Moonstone. Moonstone!!!
  • Does anyone know if the Season 1 progression rewards are still working? It seems to have reset all the ones I'd already earned on the rewards display screen, which is why I'm asking.

    I'm not far from the 10-pack but was just wondering whether I would actually get it if I hit 5000.

    I can proudly say that I topped my seasom bracket for once.

    So on a totally unrelated note... Hey beezer do you mind taking the next day and a half off from MPQ? icon_razz.gif

    edit: beezer probably hasn't even started the shield sims!

    I don't know about shield sim, but he hasn't started krakadoom.

    I just spent 500 ISO trying to find an alliance member who I knew was unshielded and could provide me a target in the teens in Simulator. Didn't manage to find a single match worth more than 3 points. But I was paired with these teams, which apparently the game has decided are now in my MMR:

    Where were those opponents when I was getting 141 when I had 50 points, not when I was trying to get to 3000.

    2500, yeah. Something like that, depending on whether I have a chance to win my season bracket, which I doubt will happen, but you never know.

    Also, I have no idea why I bolded that one sentence. Ha.

    Grrrrr. Just got to 3000 and got hit by Watercat for a loss of 47.

    This one is way too suspicious. He hit me twice within about three minutes, the first time just barely before I could get my shield back up and the next time maybe a minute later. He's running level 85 Moonstone, level 77 Hulk (without red), and level 85 Bagman. That team somehow managed to take out max Patch/BP/HT twice in less than five minutes? He now has over 2650 points.
