I am assuming for real launch server response time will be 100x quicker than it is now, or the game is basically dead on arrival. if they can't get servers to be responsive they'll need to rethink/rewrite entire server layer - for example there's no objective need to ask server what my character looks like between being on gear upgrade screen and tapping 'back'... for now I am left to assume current delays are temporary as to 4 minutes a day - I realize unlocking all characters became very hard, but with 20 characters doing all available arena fights is more like 1hr than 4 minutes. unlocking all silver+(scarecrow or catwoman) means you have 20 arena fights to do. assuming you go for hardest possible opponents good luck getting 20 fights in less than half an hour (even with super responsive servers if you could do that in less than 15 minutes I'd say you are settling for too easy opponents)
arena points equal to ((opponentStrength / 10) roundDownToNearest 250), so fighting 29990 team gives you 2750, and fighting 30010 one gives 3000
further up, it scales a little different though. 35,000 power gives 3,250 points 40,000 power gives 3,500 points
wait, but 35001 would give 3500 points, right? (in any case, the main takeaway is you need to hunt for stongest possible opponents. you can get teams a little over 5000 points stronger than you are (perhaps it's percentage based?)
No, when I battle 35,001, I get 3,250 points. When I battle 40,001 and up, I get 3,500 points. Edit: just battled a team over 45,001 power, and got 3,750 points. Edit2: Just did a 50,001+ battle, and got 4,000 points. I'm actually not sure if the even number (ex. 35,000) rounds up or down. Since it's hard to find opponents with exact numbers. Anyways, at some point, there's diminishing returns. (over 30k power)
just got 160 shards for a gold character from silver chest, so you can still unlock those in one go with some luck. feels to me silver harley and silver superman are not in the silver chests which would make them top priority for farming. also, after upgrade you now only get 70 energy, and not your new max like before.
where did you end up? i was getting correct rewards since i started getting to top 10, and was getting wrong ones ways back when i was finishing in top 50/200
Yeah I got the wrong arena awards as well. I was supposed to get 800gems and 550 shields but instead got 600/500. Also I just pulled an emerald green lantern out of the gold chests
Not sure where I ended up. I was ranked 9 with a day to go. But I was so far ahead of the 50th place, that I didn't bother to do Arena Battles, except for the 3 needed for the daily missions. So got my 1000/600, and I'm happy. I'm currently saving up my gems, and not buying silver chests yet. Though I am spending gems on Arena Shop refreshes. Currently refreshing 2 times a day for a total of 100 gems a day. 3 more days, and I unlock Predator Batman.
seems points formula is what i said up to 30,000, then its 3000 for 30,000-35,000, 3250 for 35,000-40,000, 3500 for 40,000-?(at least 45,000)
anyone else open the game and get past the superman trailer? Then it's just a blank screen with earth in the background... just earth.... Then after 10 minutes it's "downloading profile"..... They really need to fix this.
Nice Daud! Armored Superman is good. His damage immunity to one special attack has proven very useful.
Thanks guys, hope you'll get characters you want too. As for me, I won't spend gems in this update anymore, need a lot of luck to get last 3 heroes (I wanted just one hero from Wonder Woman, Harley, Superman or Flash to use every character in the Arena, rest heroes can be obtained with time).
after update i bought 10xsilver chest 4 times, and 3 times got 160 for a gold character, so it feels pretty similar to how it was before. (the difference being the non-160gold chests are never gold but instead give tons of silver shards).
