I noticed in Division 3 that a few guys are getting a score of 720 due to deploying teams (corresponding to 8 teams deployed) while most people from Division 3 deploy only 6 teams (corresponding to a score of 540). Is this really meant to be this way or is this a bug? Isn’t it unfair that few people have an advantage of 180 points because they can deploy more teams, inside the same division? Shouldn’t everyone in the same Division deploy the same number of teams and get the same score from it? (Obs.: the guys with 665 have got 540 from deploying and 125 from the fleet arena feat).@CG_SBCrumb

I'm wondering the exact same thing, would love to hear the explanation especially since they said the goal is to climb the ranks based on your score

Yeah, same...I'm at 540 and despite doing all I'm asked, I'm losing...don't like it.

At first I was thinking those with 720 points in div 3 just were at the top end of our div, which I think they are based on total GP, so I figured I wouldn’t want to be matched up against them anyway, so let em have the extra points from having to set more D. Then I looked at some of their rosters and I’d love to fight them.Something is def wrong with this so far, hopefully they get it dialed in better during these exhibitions.

Divisions are based on total GP (character + fleet).But this squad-only GA is matched on character GP so we are going to see a lot of inter-Division matches.

This is interesting as it may indicate that is is more likely based upon character gp, but still does not change the fact that there is a imbalance of max banners within a division. I believe you missed my point entirely. I have lower total GP and lower character GP than my guildmates, significantly less, 300k for GP and 100k for character GP. However, they are deploying 6 teams while I deploy 8 teamsI did miss your point. Given the number of teams set on defense should be based upon the lowest of both opponents - Can you post / compare yours and the opponent gps? That might clarify it....else I dont have a good explanation on what is driving the difference. Cheers.Either way, the differences in banners within a division appeared to be an issue in fairness. Hoping CG will explain this.The character GPs of my 7 other opponents in this round are extremely close to mine, all around 2.318m GP.It is unfair to the others in my division who can only slot 6 teams into defense and attack 6 teams. My max banners will definitely be more than them although we are competing in the same division.

Easy solution is to set the deployment points for each division and the amount of squads that have to be placed. For example, a division 2 player who has to place 6 squads for a total of 540pts(90pts per placement). The deployment for another division 2 player is 8 squads. Just adjust the points for deploying eight squads (67.5 instead of 90) so the total for full deployment is the same across the board. If it truly suppose to be an equal playing field across the board having players get a leg up just for being higher gp is a big flaw in their global system.

An interesting idea. You would also need to do something for offense though, since the number of squads available to defeat scales in the same way.

So basically they need to equalize the number of teams posted on defense across the whole division and the problem with having more defensive/offensive banners will just disappear naturally. And don't forget to take only character GP into account when forming divisions if the fleets are excluded from this particular GAC.

I have two division 3 players in my division 2 match up. Not sure how that’s gonna work out for them.

Equalize to what though? A Division 5 player could be matched against Division 4, 5 or 6 players or even higher / lower depending how extreme the character/fleet GP splits are.

But I have to wonder whether this actually matters in the long run. In a single GA, it's very visible but in a GAC consisting of a series of 5 GAs, will 150 or so points here and there really make a difference to the average player?

It's over 2,000 points on defense alone, so maybe 4,000 points total over a GAC.

4,000 points seems to be a huge amount to arbitrarily gain lose based on restrictions in game. That will definitely cost everyone at least 1 league level in rewards.

All right, let's actually crunch some numbers here..

Assuming Division 5
Feats: 595 per GA
Defense: 450 (90x5) per round
Offense: 320 (64x5) per round
Conquer: 640 per round
Total: 1410 per round
Total: 4825 per GA

One less off/def squad: -156 per round or -468 per GA so about 10% of potential.

The easy answer is you normalize everyone in every division based on defenses set. Prob not one that will be chosen as whales will complain they dont have an advantage though. Normalized points for total potential earned is the only way to be fair.
