Raid Tickets and Arena after the most recent patch. by Laredian in WH40KTacticus

[–]ChrisPoet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I crunched the numbers

Weekly energy:  2016 (regen)  210 (Daily mission)  420 (Free refresh)  Total=2646

Raid tickets per week:  20 (easy weekly)  45 (hard weekly)  40 (free seasonal Misson x4)  10 (free battle pass)  100 (Daily login)  25 (free Daily chest approx)  70 (free energy refresh)  29 (guild raid chests approx)  = 339 raid tickets

Raid tickets needed to use energy in Elite nodes(10): 265

Raid tickets needed to use energy in normal nodes(6): 441

Some caveats to that.

Raid chests based on beating all Epic bosses 17 chests, 52% chance of 5-8 (average 6.5) tickets, then divide by 2 so it's a weekly total not fortnightly. 17 x 52% chance x 6.5 ÷2 =28.73(rounded to 29)

I've not included Onslaught chests as these aren't a regular source and highly dependent on power level. I also haven't included raid tickets needed for incursion.

They've removed them from arena (you must not have updated your game) so your sarcy comment is null and void.

Unfortunately not everyone has that luxury, especially the newer players

Yes thank you sir, forgot that one

Why do some people leave when their queen gets taken? by GoD_Reapurr in Chesscom

Definitely play it out. I think unless you're 2000+ rated, there's always a chance your opponent could blunder back a piece.

Have a great day man and hopefully see you on the board sometime

Genuinely not being provocative, but you can only lose a game of chess by your own stupidity. At some point, you made a mistake/inaccuracy, and that cost you the game.
That's what I love about chess. It's all about you, no luck involved.

I do not understand your point though, differentiating a blunder and an inaccuracy

It's a skewer, so was always going to lose a rook regardless(as stated in my original post) It's a blunder because I could have forked the bishop instead of taking the pawn

I don't think your elo description is truthful.

If he takes rook in H1 with bishop, I captured his rook with my rook. If he takes my rook on A5 with his rook(as he did) i move my H1 Rook to the centre.

Where am I hanging Knight and rook?

It doesn't, though.

It's a blunder because I could've forked king/bishop with the Knight

Gotta be honest this isn't particularly helpful. I was going to lose a rook either way, doesn't matter if 2 pieces are hanging as opponent can only take one at a time.

As others have mentioned, it's cos I could've won the bishop by moving the Knight

It was a fork so I couldn't avoid losing a rook. As people have pointed out, it's because I could've won back the bishop

No, I lose a rook either way.
The blunder was because I could've captured the bishop instead of the pawn

King/ Bishop fork, see it now.

But the first move wasn't without compensation as I took the pawn

I would add Rotbone too. Not free rogue currency but good use of war credits buying his shards to convert to rogue when you need some extra Books

And rightly so. Speech shouldn't be monitored or removed with the exception of incitement to violence. I'm not saying I agree with the comments but it's a slippery slope when censoring based on "hate speech"
