    Here's my swgoh.gg https://swgoh.gg/u/buzzzthrower666/


    Join our guild we aren't highest on GP (66mil or so) but we do hAAT and Hrancor =) Open for all EU Only done HAAT for a few months so we dont have any GKS part from on members who got them elsewhere. ( Might suck if you are american? Thinking raid times would be silly)
  • Just because you do it guilt free without reprecussions, doesn't make it not cheating. Winning isn't, supposed to be easy or stress free.

    I can understand the people that need those crystals badly, but to go and say it's not cheating is ridiculous. Mind you, I do not care whether people do it or not, because it has no effect on me, it's just the denial that it isn't wrong is what gets me. For example, the 49ers and the Patriots, are in the superbowl and the head coaches (before the game) made a deal for the patriots to win in exchange for a 49er win at the superbowl the following year (of course if it was that simple). That would be fixing the game, which by nfl standards is cheating.

    As I've said I do not care whether people do it or not. I just wish people would acknowledge it's cheating. I for one wish they made it one single payout everyday. Would definitely up the competition.

    So this is the first I've heard of anything like this I have no idea how anyone knows who is attacking them I have no idea if I'm screwing anyone's pay out. As far as I knew payouts for me were at 5pm so I would think someone 2 time zones ahead of me would be at 7pm thier time. Not like it really matters anyways considering my previous guilds didn't do much of anything raid wise so kind of behind when it comes to raid toons. So I don't make much progression in arena anyways. When I feel like i should be higher than I am having 2.3 million gp. And constantly trying to better my squads but seems like no matter what i do I stay in the range of 30-60 I just figured it was due to being in a pretty old shard.


    You mean 7pm your time. You know who is attacking you when you were trying to move up and got the "someone is already battling you" message, and then you keep checking until your rank changes and see who is now in the rank you had just been in. Without being part of a shard chat or similar you can't know someone's payout for sure, but you can reasonably infer it when that person is always moving up and attacking at a certain hour of the day and no other time.
  • OP I sincerely hope you accept the invites. I've seen enough to know that players like you will eventually spend more crystals than you make because you can drop outside of top 20 at your payout because you've pissed off so many.

    The shard chat probably looks like this "make sure you hit *** on your arena climb, even if it's not a max jump!" I've no doubt your team is good, but is it good enough to defend against 50 players from different time zones attacking you incessantly? There was one player like you in my shard, eventually he quit (or dropped so low I never seen him).

    Colluding, Cheating wow so harsh you really sound angry. So lets first cover what ppl are doing, they are looking for their shard mates and sharing their payout time so to help each other with their progression. So whats helping each other? "Hey my payout time is 12st please don't snipe me", "ok, my payout time is 1st". Thats what ppl are doing, not cheating or win trading we still have to beat them. Thats called team work within the game mechanics nobody is doing anything wrong.


    It freaking cheating dress it up however u like it also the saddest ish I've ever heard of ha ha


    How so? I know someone's payout so I leave them alone during it. To do otherwise would be insanely dumb, shard chat or not. There's no rule in the game that says I have to play arena all day and mess with people, nor is there a requirement to make what I know is a tactically **** attack that will just be erased. Knowing other people's payout times and avoiding by them so you don't waste effort and tick people off isn't in any way cheating. It's best to avoid making enemies in arena.


    Man up it is a competition u want to win nothing tactical about being chummy w some one so u can share first place taking turns sad

    Your response doesn't match what you quoted. Not hitting people in their payout hour does not equal taking turns getting first in any sense of the word.

    You don't really need to beat there arena squad. I've seen numerous times where the player that's in first. Puts in a junk lead. Seen Biggs numerous times. Then everyone bumps him down. It might not be cheating. But it's not competitive. A lot of people play this game to have fun. The only things where you actually compete against other players is arena and tw. Tw is a tie. So that doesn't really count. So that leaves arena. I wish arena was competitive but us players have destroyed it. That's on us we traded competition for rewards. It's sad honestly.


    The problem with competition in arena is that NO ONE is in competition with the majority of their shard since they have different payouts. That isn't on us, that's on the design.

    We don't do that. Everyone who gets first can reliably beat the other people in the top 10.

    I wish we got rewards based on how high we got in a 24 hour period, but we don't. Instead we have to hold rank right around the time most of us are eating dinner. The group is great for helping make sure you don't drop rank while trying to have a real life.

    Also, I've said it before, but I'll say it again. It's been nice getting feedback on your squad's performance on defense. Due to feedback, I switched around my turn order and now I drop less overnight.

    I've seen some people complain that their shard's pvp group are assholes and don't let new players in, but that's not the case with us. We actively seek out other top players to add. That's how this thread started. I was trying to get in contact with Wilftheman since he's got a good squad.



  • Is sniping people on a daily basis against the rules of swgoh? I greatly enjoy sniping people, and certain people more, it’s probably my favorite part of the game. Just dominating arena top 10..
    A few shard mates and I grouped up almost a year ago and looked for other shard members for 3/4 months before closing the group off. The people who didn’t join got left in the dust because the majority of people who did want to join; where top rank finishers for the entirety of this game.. so now the people who refused to join before dont like that I snipe them now.
    I see arena as competition. So why would I just let you get a good rank and get crystals to better yourself?
