[Age 362] Adjustments to Tournament, Higher Rank Training
Posted: Sun Sep 13, 2020 6:03 pm
Hero Tournament
We have recently revised the Hero Tournament system with the goal of making it a fairer trial of your heroes' strength. What we noticed is that the balance in the tournaments are not yet to our liking. We are trying a few things to help this. This includes the following:
- Only heroes that have the duellist skill trained (minimum of 10 points) can participate.
- Only one hero per player can participate in one tournament.
Its a duellist tournament, supports have nothing to do in there. They were used as fillers and gave major points to low-level heroes. That created some imbalance. In this way we are trying to have a tournament with duellists only.
Note: There was an argument that rankers dont want to put duellist on any hero, as they like an even distribution of xp on their heroes. In that case they can put 10 duellist on every hero, for the same effect. Thats only 50 points per hero, thats nothing, especially not for rankers
Border training
It had come to our attention that some units were looping in border training particularly at the highest commander ranks after the recent training changes. Therefore we have revised the sizes of training armies at the border, similarly to what we did earlier for the blue ranks. Training army sizes have been increased for all ranks now.
A big thank you to all the helpful players who have volunteered to test these and earlier training changes.
Several Fixes
- We have fixed the issue where the "no country" flag was broken on several pages.
- A slightly alarming display bug where clicking through battle results would not update the numbers of injuries and casualties has been fixed.
- Several other display and textual fixes.
