Winning Prestige Points

Epic Warfare Tournament countdown

• For every hit done in a battle, a player received 1 Prestige Point. The Prestige Points were received immediately after every hit. It’s important not to confuse “hits” with “kills”. One hit awards 1 Experience Point and consumes 10 Energy. Usually, an opponent is defeated using 1 to 4 hits on average, depending on his Energy level and weapon quality.

Example

if a player killed an opponent in 3 hits, he instantly received 3 Prestige Points.

• Fighting in a Guerrilla Fight awarded the player with 10 Prestige Points at the end of the fight, regardless of the result (win or lost).
• The use of a Big Bomb, Small Bomb or Rocket awarded the player with 1 Prestige Point immediately after using it.
• A player was able to win more Prestige Points for reaching the Top 5 Fighters in a battle.
• Depending on the position in the Top 5, the player received the following bonus at the end of the battle, taking into account how much damage he done in that battle:
  • 1st place: 100% extra Prestige Points for every hit that the player has done in that battle
  • 2nd place: 80% extra Prestige Points for every hit that the player has done in that battle
  • 3rd place: 60% extra Prestige Points for every hit that the player has done in that battle
  • 4th place: 40% extra Prestige Points for every hit that the player has done in that battle
  • 5th place: 20% extra Prestige Points for every hit that the player has done in that battle

The bonus Prestige Points were awarded only after the end of the battle when the Battle hero achievement was also awarded.

Example

If a player has earned 100 Prestige Points in a battle where he is ranked 1st, he wins 100 extra Prestige Points at the end of the battle, along with the Battle Hero achievement.

Players earned 3 Prestige Points per hit (instead of 1) by fighting in Epic Battles.

Epic Battles

A battle becomes epic when a certain amount of damage is dealt. Epic Battles were signalled with a special icon on the War (Campaigns) Page and a different background on the battle page.

A battle became epic if the damage done was:

Division	Damage
	more than 10.000.000 damage dealt in that battle
	more than 30.000.000 damage dealt in that battle
	more than 100.000.000 damage dealt in that battle
	more than 3.000.000.000 damage dealt in that battle

The player received 3 Prestige Points for every hit he has done in that battle AFTER the moment the battle has become epic. The bonus Prestige Points were added instantly but ONLY AFTER the moment the battle has become epic. The bonus Prestige Points were added also in case of a Guerrilla Fight, where the player received 30 Prestige Points at the end of the fight. The bonus Prestige Points were also awarded in case the player uses bombs, rockets or bazookas, resulting in 3 points gained for each use of these weapons.

Example

If a player has done 100 hits in an Epic Battle (after the battle has become epic) he won 300 prestige points instantly

The bonus for placing in the top 5 also applied to Epic Battles.

Example 1

If a player has done 100 hits in an Epic Battle (after the battle has become epic) and also won the Battle Hero he won 100 * 3 (from the epic bonus) = 300 points instantly and at the end an extra of 300 points because of the Battle Hero bonus

Example 2

If a player has done 300 hits in a Battle, before becoming epic, he received 300 points for those hits. If in the same battle, the player has done another 100 hits AFTER the battle has become epic, he won another 300 points so in total he reached 600 points for that battle. If the player managed to achieve the Battle Hero in that battle, the 200% bonus prestige points would double the total points obtained by the player: 600 points * 2 = 1200 points

• Glossary clarification: whenever the term “battle” was used it refers to what the community largely calls “round”. 1800 Domination Points lead to winning a Battle, which leads to winning Campaign Points. 83 Campaign Points lead to winning a Campaign.

Individual Rankings

Country Rankings

Country rankings during the epic warfare tournament

The countries were ranked based on the average Prestige points per active fighter (active fighter = a citizen who won at least 1 Prestige Point during the tournament)

Formula

Total Number of Prestige Points gathered by the active fighters of a country divided by the number of active fighters

IMPORTANT

New accounts made 24 hours before the launch of the event and during the event did not enter the individual or country rankings

Country Rewards

At the end of the tournament, countries won a Defence shield plus an amount of Gold delivered to the Treasury, depending on the place the country was positioned at the end of the tournament.

Final position	Rewards
1 - 10	Quality 7 Defence Shield + 5 000 GOLD
11 - 20	Quality 6 Defence Shield + 3 000 GOLD
21 - 30	Quality 5 Defence Shield + 2 500 GOLD
31 - 40	Quality 4 Defence Shield + 2 000 GOLD
41 - 50	Quality 3 Defence Shield + 1 500 GOLD
51 - 60	Quality 2 Defence Shield + 1 000 GOLD
61 - 70	Quality 1 Defence Shield + 500 GOLD

NOTE

If a country already had an active Defence Shield, the capacity of the new shield was cumulated with the old one.

Example

Country A still has 4 billion damage left in their Defence Shield and wins a new Quality 5 Defence Shield. The new 6 billion damage was added to the existing 4 billion, making a total of 10 billion damage. This meant that the current Defence Shield would become a Quality 7. Note: In some cases, the cumulated shield capacity could exceed 10 billion damage. The result would still be a Q7 Defence Shield, but one that has over 10 billion damage capacity (no damage was lost).
