I am in a medium guild gp power and we can solo the rancor several people.I have seen that I am always in the same position and the damage output is always the same for my guildies so I would like to know how the dmg output is calculated.its not random cause random is random.my username is starting by U and people with their name lower in order than me are always in a upper position than me.this should be like the activities positions that when 20 people for example are in the same position they are all take same reward coins.
Your position on the leaderboard is sorted by points. Players with the same number of points are randomly sorted.
I did not develop the sorting algorithm, but I would bet my future Ferrari that it works like this: Let's say you score maximum points in the raid. When you post your score, you are assigned a random tiebreaker number between 0 and 1 (example: 0.8147237). Now another guildmate comes in and scores maximum points; they also get a random tiebreaker assigned (ex: 0.9057919). You have the same score, but your ranking is sorted based on the tiebreaker, and since your guildmate got a higher tiebreaker, they rank above you.
Doing it this way, it does not matter who scored first, or what your name is, or your player ID. As long as a player registers a score before the raid is complete, they get a tiebreaker assigned, and the list is re-sorted with every score registered.
