Banning for 'Cheating'

I've just completed Tier 4 of the Colosseum using a lvl 45 Dedra and her hero ability activated (full ISB, yada yada). But I haven't even attempted Tier 5 yet because I've read the horror stories of people who submitted one attempt on a higher tier and got banned because they did too well.

So what's the likelihood I'll be "banned for cheating" if I try Tier 5? I really don't want to be banned, especially since it's GAC season.

    A guildmate of mine has apparently progressed to Tier 5 with a Lvl 45 Dedra, so I'm waiting on a response as to their current state

  • What an amazing game experience we all have here. Fear of progressing a game mode, playing the auto ban lottery and potentially losing access to a legit x amount of years old account is just the feature we all  wanted from our most cherished mobile game.

    If you do get banned OP, good luck getting access to your account back at all never mind for this GAC season. There's posts on here were people are just being completely ignored by the CG appeals process for months on end now, not looking like they'll get a resolution either.

    Whole thing is a bit of a farce.

  • I don't think anyone can offer an answer to this that you could consider definitive. 

    One anecdotal observation I can offer, though, is that I've found most Coliseum tiers tend to become "clearable" when you have character(s) at Level 10t+5, where t is the tier number. I struggled to clear t3 of any boss until I had one or more characters at Level 35, for instance. I got 78% with Dedra on t4, but mine is only Level 39, so you clearing t4 with a Level 45 Dedra sounds absolutely fine to me. 

    I don't know for sure, but I wonder if the obviously flawed cheat autodetection has a tolerance level of +/- 2 levels around the 10t+5 I mentioned? If someone cleared t3 with no characters above Level 32, for instance, would the auto-detect be triggered? 

    This doesn't answer your question, but I don't think anyone could answer it completely.
