Current cvc rules

The new cvc rules are not working as intended and it has made the game quite boring and predictable. No one farms in case of attack, because if you get hit on a tile, and your opponent doesnt farm, you lose catagories 1 and 4 with no chance of retaliation. This current cvc sees the only points being scored by both clans in the last three catagories. So it is down to how much you will spend on boosts to win. And honestly, the prize gained for winning just isnt worth the bother. i like the increased gold for checkpoints but the gameplay needs to be addressed asap

Yes maybe it would be good to get rid of catagory 4 (total kills) and then maybe split invaders/ghosts and farming ...

These new CVC categories have to be fixed!! If you are not the first to hit there is no room for retaliation as the other team " bottles up"and then you have no opportunity to score, then it is automatically lose TWO categories!!!!!  The match ups have been screwy too. Love being matched with a team withThree times our influence and player numbers. Really getting annoying!!

Totally agree - it is almost a waste of time.


Basic strategy - in the first 5 minutes see if you can find 1 enemy farming tile.  Hit it, then do not farm for the rest of CvC and you are almost guaranteed the win.


Because the troop kills need to be "enemy", hitting someone else's farming tiles or the PoP gives zero points.  Hence categories 2 and 3 are useless for 95% of clans unless your opponent controls the PoP.  How do you even sore points in the "Battles in the Clan Stronghold" category?  Waste of time.


And agree - the match ups are terrible.  We are a new, small clan of about 15 people but keep getting matched against a clan of 2-4 people (which is probably a single person) that has 1 account of 5+ billion influence.  They hit 1 tile, train 100k of Tier 6 or 7 troops and do one decent upgrade and its all over.  Happened last 4 CvC's in a row so now we don't bother doing CvC.

I too have seen it in operation so I understand the complaint,  see why the techs did it, but would have to agree with your analysis that the strategy of hitting a tile for effectively 2 points and then no more, works, assuming that you win the tile hit. 

I would imagine that the "Battles in the Clan Stronghold" category? is when the tile hit is within the confines of the stronghold, but again you have the situation as above as you are most likely to loose the tile hit ,and probably similarly if you attack an un-shielded player there, as it would have to be the enemy,in both cases, and most likely a trap.

Battles in the Clan Stronghold are battles involving the Tower of Odin which can only be built in lvl 4 Strongholds. Clans open their Tower of Odin for a 2hr siege and it is attacked by big marches of foreign (= Plarium) troops. It can be attacked by anyone else as well. So in CvC enemy clan scores points for killing troops in your tower of odin, you score points for killing plarium troops and enemy clan troops that attack your tower, and vice versa for enemy clan. Costs 1000 Glittering Dust (=1000 crushed Legendary gems) to open Tower of Odin and takes 3 days to recover before you can open it again.

thanks for clarifying... we are only at SH level 3 and I had no idea how that worked yet.  

But for most clans in CvC, that category (and PoP attacks) will not be relevant.

You're welcome.


Yes, most clans can only score in 5 categories in CvC.


One small error in my earlier post. It is called Precious Dust in Vikings. Glittering Dust is same thing in Throne. Precious Dust is also required for buildings in lvl 4 Strongholds.

CvC has been revamped simply for Plarium's benefit..they have CvC so often in the hopes people will buy packages to win CvC. Every move Plarium makes is a calculated move to make money and not improve player gameplay. In my opinion they are just milking people. Some of the things in this game as so ridiculous but Plarium doesnt care, they dont bother about player enjoyment.

The tile/town battle category and the POP battle category suffer from the same issue. The tiniest mistake costs the clan that entire category. A simple solution exists. No point should be awarded to the higher scoring clan in either of these categories unless a threshold score has been achieved. That threshold would be scaled according to the "Influence League" of the opponent clan pair. This would open up play instead of clans generally avoiding yielding tiles unshielded or having any POP action whatsoever.

Totaly agree. This game mechanic destroys current clans and new players get fucked up. I also agree with Ang Moh !

Plarium is only focused on their profit. They destroy the huge investments of the players to get the personal reward. This time i lost 18 hures of my life, 200k Gold to fill all 15 bars. At leat i invest  over 50 weeks time booster and nearly 1Billion of each ressource to train warriors, for nothing...

This happens: We get a new unknowing member and his tiles was hit by the enemy after a few minutes ( again a 3 person clan with no fortress ). They don't have made any gameplay (no farming, no builds, nothing), they are only waiting for this moment to hit a tile. Then they trained an army in the last minutes and get 9 599 427 500 points! This costs a lot of money! So we lost, again against such clan... This is the crappiest game mechanic I've ever seen!


But! Tribble win for Plarium!

1. Destroy Player invests.

2. Get money for warrior training - ressources ( or destroy more resources ) for the last minute win.

3. Don't have to give the huge reward for personal reward focused players.


I will talk to my clan and to affected other clans to not play cvc any more. The system have to be changed.

It would be improved if players were stopped from deliberately dropping influence (dismissing troops) to get easier opponents, only to train them all each week. This to me is cheating the game. Also smaller clans may have more chance if a level 40 from anywhere couldn't wipe you out of your siege with 1 hit. They should limit siege hitting to opponents only. Although more often than not we're hitting checkpoint 15 in first day to be annihilated on siege points by 1 l40 as our opponent. How can we console our players each week?

All of this highlights the real problem with this game. With recent developments big players are not only untouchable to other players but to whole clans. 

For me there is only 1 solution to improve game play for all. Kingdoms should be split into different groups and massive clans and players should be limited to their group and other players would be in a different group and neither would ever meet.

Jot is the worst example of how bad this game has got. As a small player I went there a few weeks ago and lost 80% of all my troops through being attacked once. It's virtually game over for me. How do I learn or experience new things in the game when the odds are stacked so massively against me?

There is the problem with a big player joining after cvc matchup so that they can win the stronghold seige catagories ... this just happened to us ... huge player joins after matchup so they get the stronghold seige catagories ... our clan 634B theirs NOW 1.491T 

The big player does not get points for certain things but will get points for the clan or keep us from getting points from stronghold seige so the clan win then 3 catagories to 4 catagories (depending if we do a stronghold seige also).  I think they are doing this so the clan wins cvc AND the big guy gets lots of soul shards without losing much troops.

Rowena, Scottpuddy: I am in a small clan and we are often put against a one or two person clan that has twice our combined influence, but one thing a one person clan can't do is play non stop 24hrs /day - I  often farm without domain shields during cvc while our oponent is offline at work or asleep. I farm small and since no one else gets points for hitting my troops my troops are seldom attacked. And if I do get attacked I automatically win the defence category, even if I lose more troops than he does. Or if he holds a sh siege and I attack it I automatically win attack category, even if I only kill a couple of his scouts and lose most of my attack troops. Our problem is that  if he does have a sh siege then his stronger troops get many more points than we possibly can and we lose.  (And he usually has the resources to train many more high level troops).

Blazebo: Wouldn't an alliance with a clan with big players have the same affect as a big player joining late. (Or is the influence of an alliance clan included in the match up?).

John makes some good points and I agree with most if not all of them. My experience as an ally went more towards...... when I reinforced them (smaller Clan) during a siege it was ME who ended up with the Lions share of Shards. Kind of defeated the purpose of helping imo. So, after that I went to try and help keep others from interfereing with our allies siege. I'm a lvl 40 whos decently strong, not overwhelming like some but decently and it "worked" about half the time. 

I'm NOT a fan of the ally system tbh. I think it kinda screws the smaller Clans and wish it would be abolished.

We did end up winning the cvc but it was a fight to the end and we were not sure we won until final score was announced.
