I'm back

So, whats dakota's new scandal? Lol I jest, I jest   

How is everyone? Any major changes to the game I should be aware of?

Lol sup paint just read the forum you'll find out everything you need to know that's been going on after the great nerf gate scandal

Top 18 get lethals. A lot of veterans either returning or starting over it seems like. The mercs have improved and new squad formations. FFF, Zema, and Pirates are top teams and very very divided. Most teams have had to start communicating privately due to one particular team stupping to extremely pathetic standards and manipulating conversations and people then getting their account compromised.

I've kinda stayed out of it surprisingly even though I do love a good crusade. Would be good to see you come back and at least play casual. Its actually pretty entertaining restarting

Lol 4-5 months of backlogged lurking, must be my birthday lol.

From my quick assessment and a little info from hatch the market hyperinflated then collapsed because people were using more res than was being generated by "legitimate" sourcing. Everyone is still asking too much for some mercs and other L2 are going for sub 100 res.

Sounds about the same as when I left except different mercs are on the pedistal, and the game is more pay to play than ever. The exchange seems pretty inactive

Zema? New to me

And building up is definitely the funnest part arth, once ur up top it just becomes work

^^^^^^ exactly and it feels so much less rewarding adding aletgal to a squad full of lethals compared to earning a first lethal on a new account

I mean once your easily getting your 30 win streak that's what its really all about. Oh they are encrypting so having to do raw math to estimate evolves. Caya I believe provided the formula for figuring withing + - 50

WB, although it means that i will finish 1 rank lower in every next event .

Lol thanks but idk about that and all, last 2 events I participated in ive ended up ~1000 on the board. Maybe in the near future but im gonna sit back and observe for now   

Good to see you back, paint.

Welcome back Paint! Biggest news lately is the JSON data being encrypted as Art alluded to above. It's been a pretty serious blow to the morale around here.

Wondered how long you would stay away from your FF addiction.

Tbh anyone who knows the formula should be profiting from them encrypting json. For example this last event a few people pretty much bought up almost every single 3-4 Res abyssal and there were a lot. Then 1 day later ope stats are posted with modifier and its worth 6-7 instantly. Give it till after next raid and I'd say an 8n1 could reach 80-100 Res. I know that sounds like way too much but people told me the same thing about incinerator.

Considering that Golems have been going for around 120, I find that highly unlikely.....

That's a rich man's game Art. With the genebound restrictions on res it's been very tough to line up a pile of res. It's the old adage - got to have money to make money. In FF, money is res of any denomination.

Also, when one has a pile of highly effective Epics, chasing the newest shiny merc pumped out by little d isn't too compelling of an incentive for me to sell of a 100 res epic for 3 copies of an unproven r1 reward.

Sure I might get tooled by a squad of Lurkers, or Cyclops, or Patriarchs, but so what. The quote commonly attributed to Vince Lombardi - winning isn't everything, it's the only thing - only marginally applies to FF.

Welcome back and arth forget to mention the number 1 team im very hurt with them being the wretched. Past 2 gates had 6 in top 8 raid dont play and last pvp 1,2,4 and i set a new pvp points record how does that go unnoticed   

Cause you go about your business quietly slamming down & not crowing about your performance.

That said - well done! I just can't commit the hours on the phone required to place in the stratosphere of the rankings.
