Are there multiple Arena payouts per day? Maybe different time zones pay differently?

As far as know regular arena pays out at 6 PM CST and fleet arena pays out at 7 PM CST.

The reason I ask the question about multiple payouts is that I regularly take #1 in the fleet arena. However, there is a guy, I will call him #2, that religiously attacks me at 7:15 PM CST, after the payout. I let him hold that spot for 23 hours and 35 minutes and then attack him at 6:50 to reclaim #1 and take the prize.

This has been going on like this for about 2 months now and I find his behavior really puzzling. Why would he be so adamant about attacking me at exactly 7:15 every single day? Maybe it just makes him feel better, but he does nothing to try to block my attack and his timing makes me think that he must also be earning a #1 prize.

If this is the case, I actually think that is great. I think a much better system would be that you get the prize for the highest rank you can hit in the 24 hour window.

  • Yes both squad and fleet arena leaderboards are mixed timezones so multiple payouts.
  • Payouts are based on timezone, therefore there are several players in each shard with different payout times
  • There are 24 timezones, so 24 different payout times. There is a payout every hour. The guy moving up behind you is most likely in the timezone west of yours. It is good etiquette to wait until an hour or two before your payout to make any moves, and not mess with people not in your timezone. Everyone hates that guy that thinks he has to own the number one spot at all times.
  • I know of a shard or 2 that the top guys are all different time zones and all take 1st just before their own payout so multiple people get 1st rewards each day

    We have 5 in our guild on the 1 shard and are in regular contact with most of the top 20

    We just line it up so nobody snipes. One guy has his payout 2 hours before me. Once its 430pm my time i take 1. Then the next guy is 2 hours after my payout.

    Advantage is we dont wast crystals refreshing and we are always guaranteed 1. Or in the case of 2 people having the same payout, we alternate 1/2
