Thanks Mikalosos really appreciated.

OK Plarium you made a mistake with emerald levels, did not inform us of the huge reduction when you introduced the skirmish function (and using skirmish function you are given no opportunity to see what the emerald rewards are) and as a direct consequence of which I lost all of my recharges and emeralds, which at the time totalled approx 1300.

I think it would be a good gesture to credit me with the lost emeralds please.

I have read most of the posts above and I still do not see a clear answer - What do we have to do to get the COA rewards - NOT individual rewards - in the COA Arena?

Grim

Grim, you can claim your Coalition reward at Inbox-> Goods -> Coalition Mission reward packs. 

To receive the Coalition Arena reward, a Coalition Member must have defeated at least one Challenger since the previous Milestone Ring. This is a Milestone Ring Rewards. Also, there is a special Coalition Rewards that is given to a Coalition that successfully clears Rings 30, 50, and 100. To receive this Reward, a Coalition Member must have defeated at least one of the Challengers during the current Coalition Arena Event.

Another eight days have elapsed since my last post.  I have bought ZERO packages in the last 20 days which means Plarium has lost $250-$300 direct revenue from me.  The Guardian feature has been ruined by the reduced level up rewards. 

As my Emerald balance steadily falls toward zero my Guardian play will end. I will NEVER buy any Emerald package to compensate for Plarium arbitrarily taking away what was free.

The new "features" - Arena contest and Guardian AutoPlay - both have very little to offer.  The "adventurers" are useless and pointless. They accomplish nothing that you couldn't accomplish before with regular guardians. They are "generic" guardians that cannot be used to enlighten. Very backwards way to speed up leveling up of other guardians.  The only useful features would have been if they were "generic" guardians capable of enlighting any guardian type of same grade but they are not. In fact the only thing to do with them is to disband them immediately to increase level of other guardians... what a waste of space and design time!

The Arena rewards are REALLY crummy and are not worth the time investment.  You get a couple of c r a p coalition "trashcans" with worthless trinkets in them + 5-10 useless adventurers.  To achieve any worthwhile reward you need to get 50-100 players from your coalition fully involved.  Despite a big push and effort to recruit players into the Arena event we got 25-30% participation rate.  We reached ring 26 and didn't get a single reward worth anything. Our coalition is ranked around 120 and we got ZILCH from arena event.  I wonder if any coalition felt this feature has any merit?

I like the Guardian Autoplay as long as it is free and as long as killing warlords delivers a positive Emerald cash flow.  My first 7 days free trial will expire shortly and I wont be buying any new ones so I am guessing that ultimately the feature will not exist for me.

Plarium has messed up the game balance with the Emerald/Guardian rule change. It tells me that Plarium will change the rules anytime it suits them and that nothing in the game is safe.  I will not invest another dollar in a game where the core rules can be changed by the developer, without notification and without valid reason. 

By your stupid decisions you have turned a paying customer into a freeloader... good job!

I spend comparatively little on this game compared to many, yet over the 2.5 years i have been playing, I have spent more on this game than any other game - ever.

This is in spite of the the frustratingly game lag, it's many many bugs that have me refreshing 50, 60 times a day, the spoiling dominance in the game of coiners and the blatant greediness of Plarium.

That rather on concentrating on making the game more fun for all, is entirely focused on how to make money.

As the post above illustrates, this approach only works short term, in the longer term it irritates the very people who are Plariums customers, it's players. 

i know it irritates me. 

Things like the slow game load 'cos Plarium wants to promote it's latest offer, the way that to carry out a game action it takes 6 clicks but to spend drachma's or $ it takes 1, the way every new feature is not primarily designed to enhance game play but instead to find a new way of inducing you to spend more more (the new conquest feature is a classic example- want to continue using this new game feature after the freebie runs out then folks that will take $$$).

The effectively cutting off the supply of emeralds is the final straw - that's it Plarium - restore how it was or I will never spend another cent.

Yours in disgust

Grim

The guardian situation was working fine. 

Now you have altered it, the situation is ridiculous. 

i have most of my guardian slots empty as with no emeralds i cannot replace them as i upgrade,  

i cannot attack warriors as i have no recharges or emeralds and cannot replenish (and please don't say use the auto replenish rate. It is so slow and with the limit of 10 attacks if we rely on this mode it would take days to simply upgrade a single guardian). 

I cannot unblock Guardians in the COA arena as I have no emeralds. 

I will not be able to compete in Guardian XP contest next week as I have no emeralds. 

This situation exists in spite of my achieving maximum rewards in last weeks guardian XP event. 

This situation is ridiculous and entirely of your making - presumably in an effort to force us to lay out cash to continue to upgrade our guardians although at the moment it is an indication of your lack of any intelligent planning with regard to this change, that we cannot even purchase emeralds or recharges even if we were prepared to.  

Sparta is a fine game being ruined by Plariums single minded focus on trying to squeeze money out of it's customers. Your greed is utterly deplorable. 

PLEASE RESET EMERALDS REWARDS TO THE WAY THEY WERE. 

This Reward is given to a Coalition that successfully clears Rings 30, 50, and 100. To receive this Reward, each Coalition Member must have defeated at least one of the Challengers during the current Coalition Arena Event.

Just replace (each) with (a) that's all. 

i dont understand anything

Looked again and theres a hitch (as always with plarium) its not good folks every member has to have 1 hit on a guardian on this tournament to receive the reward, now tell us Nancy if we have 1 hit on the warlord were OK, or if a player is inactive or on holiday etc does it affect the reward for all of the members who have participated also not get this reward.

Spartans, why did you decide that you won't receive a reward if e.g one player of your Coalition is inactive or on holiday? There are 4 types of rewards that each of you can get by participating in the Coalition Arena Event. If all the criteria for this event are met, each player who participated in this Event will receive rewards according to their invested efforts. All rewards (except for energy and XP rewards) can be claimed after the end of the event only. 

The Challengers carry fantastic treasures to be won. Rewards you receive for clearing Arena Rings can be divided into 4 types:
- Personal Rewards. You receive these Rewards for defeating Challengers in the Rings. They are the same Rewards that you would receive by defeating Warlords in the Guardian window.
- Milestone Ring Rewards. These Rewards are given to the Coalition upon successfully clearing Milestone Rings. To receive this Reward, a Coalition Member must have defeated at least one Challenger since the previous Milestone Ring.
- Special Coalition Reward. This Reward is given to a Coalition that successfully clears Rings 30, 50, and 100. To receive this Reward, each Coalition Member must have defeated at least one of the Challengers during the current Coalition Arena Event.
- Rewards for Deeds. You receive these Rewards for completing Deeds from the “Deeds” sub-tab.

It seems we react like junkies... Since some idiots let them wives to get unpleasure and sitting on the sofa all day and spent thousant dollars and  killing them pensions, here is no luck on this game as Plarium ll pay attention how to get them money and give a little s*** about us... Cry as much as you want... 

 We the really lovers of this game or we quit and give some pleasure to those desperate housewives or we decide all together to move to another server and build for scratch our cities and play as the good old time... Then those moral coiners remain on the local server they ll kill soon each other, killing the server and the company and after they ll return to the local casinos spent them pensions to the slot machines as before discover Sparta... With one way or another still them wives they ll be desperate...

The ''cornutos'' they can pass from my city... I served the best hot coffee in Sparta...

10 Rank 2 total 152 hits or 15.2 per 1

The skirmish does not use the most efficient method. It uses single hits to kill warlord

What is the most efficient method ?

Manually i need the same hits ... 

I use different methods depending on the circumstances and what my goals are at the time.

1. Single hit kills

2. Two hit kills

3. Multi hit kills

I combine all three methods for best efficiency

There is no way to bring rank 1 Guardians from level 1 to level 15 with an average of 4 hits.  It is possible to do it (even with 3 hits) using hits on already wounded warlords but that is not a realistic average since there are not enough higher level Guardians to "prepare" a sufficient number of wounded warlords to upgrade half of all the rank 1 Guardians you need.

To make a rank 4 Guardian you need 4 rank 3 - one of them at level 25

To make the 4 rank 3 Guardians you need 12 rank 2 with 4 of them at level 20

To make 12 rank 2 Guardians you need 24 rank 1 guardians - half of them at level 15

The combined task that needs to be accomplished is to upgrade

12 rank 1 from 1 to 15

6 rank 2 from 1 to 20

1 rank 3 from 1 to 25

How many total warlord hits does it take without any "outside" help meaning that no other Guardians except these 19 are used?

I say it takes around 200 Warlord battles to do it.

 

lmfao

Plarium give me back my ******* Ambusher guardians back,i had a grade 4 rank 6 Ambusher guardian,amongst others, which have inexplicably vanished
