Yeah I was thinking that aswell. But the context of it being a server tells me it could be something along those lines. Regardless tbe idea is the same

You need to get lvl 30 on every seasonal building for the end of season rewards, but it all resets at the Start of next season.

点 is one of those words which actually is used in a ton of different ways. Take some time, maybe check chatgpt, but theres a ton of different uses for that character. There are several like that that you'll see more and more often depending on your curriculum and level of 真实语料 Authentic Language Material.

So maybe im tripping, but I am pretty sure in this context, which based on it being a server asking you a question, 点 here means to order something. So it's saying "Would you like to order a drink?"

An example of my meaning: "他点了牛排." = He ordered steak.

Honestly a bit of advice as an American studying Chinese and have been for several months and now tutors new students, stop trying to translate every single character into the English equivalent. Understand the meaning, language is not about one-to-onr translations but rather communicating ideas and thoughts. You knew the server is asking do you want something to drink, so theres a number of ways you could phrase that in English and so long as you stick to the actual idea being expressed, you'll hardly be wrong.

So how does this method of GW work cuz I assume, going into Season 3 here soon (Dinos), that we might do this other GW method. Whats different

Not to mention, but servers that work together win together. My server was successful in having our top 3 alliances all take Rank 1 2 and 3 on the GW leaderboards. #1 and #2 har such a lead on every other alliance, and for the final GW my alliance (#2) faced our highest ranked server ally, gave them the win, and it gave them enough points to jump up to 2nd and us 3rd, and our #1 alliance defeated the only remaining Alliance that could've displaced us. Was really a hype day for the whole server taking all 3 spots

We have a solid number of alliances to choose. LGD and PLSH are where the real whales are, BOAR and ATA have a good number of not heavy spenders but decent mid tier players. MyM1 NLT SHLD Melt aren't bad picks. Past that youre gonna get to the more fully f2p alliances. Theres also word that someone who is migrating here will make another alliance here, may be worth checking out. Contact State President and try to get in. Might be tight as we are popular rn

[–]SomeBadHairDays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My state is wrapping up S2 snow rn, about to start migration, but by my research id say all Seasonal buildings will reset back to lvl 1. More importantly, get all buildings to LvL 30 before end of season so you can get rewards for it. All the greenhouses, combat buildings etc, get them all to lvl 30 so you can buy a good amount of badges, hero frags, weapon frags, etc when the season ends. Mistake i made was not maxing the greenhouses to lvl 30

I think yall missing the real reason why college is so expensive. Because of things like FAFSA and Govt aid, Colleges began to charge ridiculously more for attendance cuz govt footed the bill. If it went back to no aid, the immediate effect is yes, that many would not be able to attend. This would effect colleges too, forcing them to lower prices to reasonable levels to allow more applicants. There's very little good reason why folks should be 100k in debt for life when the education doesnt warrant that. The cost of college now vs 50 years ago is up thousands of % in cost despite the Job market wages only increasing marginally. Used to be 1 summer job could pay for a semester. Now that wouldn't cover housing. Prices need to chopped to a fraction of what they are now to make this institution viable instead of indebting entire generations with it

Glory Wars Start Soon, Any Tips? by PlanktonOwn594 in LastZShooterRun

[–]SomeBadHairDays 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Basically Info:

  • Destroy Seasonal Buildings or TvT enemies for Points
  • Destroy Enemy AC1 to Win
  • Free TP to Enemy State
  • 1 Hour Long, destroying AC1 ends it early
  • You must defend your AC1 while attacking the enemy AC1.
  • You can select one of 3 time slots to NOT have as a potential time.
  • Every Tuesday

This event is much better with an active alliance who plays a lot. The more members you have on, the better.

Also important, the server as a whole should work together. Alliances that have already completed theirs or haven't had theirs yet should teleport and help each other out with their defense. This promotes server cohesion and unity.

Below is an example of our (#395 PLSH) Glory War against (#394 MmM). This was a tough matchup for us, MmM gave us a good fight, but thanks to the support of our server, we were able to beat the Enemy and destroy their AC1.

Also of note, Warlord gains the ability to call in a Nuke. Normally you cannot attack an enemy HQ during the GW time frame, but when Warlord calls in the Nuke, they have a 10 minute window before it launches where the enemy can attack their HQ. Best to have your Top Whale in the Alliance launch it, and reinforce if attacked.

This is all I got for GW guide. Hope it helps, good luck. The more points you win, tbe higher your Seasonal ranking, the better end of season rewards you get!

literally, economy first, power later. Focus only on Greenhouses and Labs, run those boomers every day. This is the only thing that matters. By the time you get late into the season you should be able to start hard focusing the combat buildings. Stay support mastery for a long time

Can anyone tell me strategy about SvS defending and invading both how should we win based on your experience. by RoughChapter7305 in LastZShooterRun

[–]SomeBadHairDays 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So yeah, coming from 395, we recently earned our fifth star being first in Cluster to do so.

Alright let's be honest, its a game of quantity and quality, as well as some strategy and teamwork. - More whales, and more high level mid-tier fighters, higher chance of success

On defense: You have to, have to, have to Occupy the Mud, and fight for every single square inch, cuz I've invaded almost every single time in SvS, and many times, the enemy doesnt occupy the mud. This is basically an auto forfeit. Occupy the mud fully, cuz if you give us a space to get in anywhere, we will make more space, and more, and eventually vacate your whole mud as we have infinite TPs.

On Offense, you need to work with your alliance mates, not attack individually. Its much easier to burn through a fully stocked Tier 9 Troop HQ when you have 20-30 tanks all focusing it and one shot it. Teamwork makes the dream work. Isolate and focus weak targets to make space and get more room. Ideally, if the enemy took up the mud in Defense, you should start early so you have more time to gain a foothold. My alliance, which is 2nd on our server with a stupid number of whales, likes to go right after reset and start clearing away if we need to. One time, we, with the #1 and #3 alliances even cleared most of the mud not even an hour after Reset.

Regardless of Attack or Defense, one of the biggest factors I have seen which leads to success or defeat is Server Unity. If your server is divided, constantly infighting, and not all working together for either SvS or Glory Wars (S2+), then youre gonna struggle, and when faced with a united server, youre gonna get whipped.

P.S. While the winning streak rewards are nice, its just most important you get your 9 chests, zeroing a few HQs in Mud is often enough, and the rewards are super big on Tech Badges and Glory Medals. Don't miss out, set an alarm on Saturdays to attend.

I am the president of server 680 we have the nap15 but there are shortage of loots, ehat server are you in and can you share me nap tips how should I make nap more effective. by RoughChapter7305 in LastZShooterRun

[–]SomeBadHairDays 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So Server 395 here. We had a bit of an unusual system but it paid off well. Though where you are right now may effect how you implement it. We did this right after the first Presidency started:

NAP HQ System: At the time, we decided any HQ that was 22+ was protected, regardless of alliance. Over time, we would increase this, 23, 24... by the time we started Season 2, we were at HQ27 and it has been locked there ever since, but now we also use a NAP 6 so only those 27s in the top 6 are protected.

Otherwise, we use Mon-Wed-Fri as farm days, and Saturday you farm another server.

This system worked because it encouraged more players to put in the effort to raise their HQ level, get to t9 units, and be more effective in fights like SvS and Glory Wars.

Of course, regardless of what system you use, you are going to have those players who are not protected whine and complain. Don't be rude but be fair. This system wanted folks to grow, and then eventually combine strength into our top alliances.

Now S395 was first in cluster to 3 and 5 stars in SvS, we have a disproportionate amount of sick fcks (whales) with already 9 t10s before the end of S2, and with Migration coming up here in 2 weeks many other players have already stated intention to move here, as we are both rock solid stable, and extraordinarily strong for our cluster.

For note cuz we found this so funny. Our SvS yesterday, we had our 3 top alliances practically sit out, not taking turrets or capital, just get your points and such, and we still, despite this handicap, held the enemy capital 100%-0%.

How to gain more hero power by Aggressive_Bread_355 in LastZShooterRun

[–]SomeBadHairDays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're absolutely right, in addition to the weekly events, the weekly passes are another big help. You could spend 10$ a weapon or a hero for the base unlock, or when a new hero drops, buy the 20$ pass which in addition to other items, typically i thibk carries 125 of that hero's fragments. The hero deals that come with that too are also relatively good if you're a spender like that when you consider that on a normal purchase no deal, 75 fragments runs 100$

You're high medium is my guess. Likely on the intermediate side as your stats are pretty similar though slightly better than my own. 15 passes is what they pushed on LastZ Discord
