2nd Siege in a row for us with no rewards

http://i.imgur.com/7SF0k.png


We get placed in that unit instead of combat unit and defense unit, etc.
We don't get any rewards (badges, honor points, packages).

I asked in world chat and everyone said they got stuff. Is this is a secluded incident or is anyone else experiencing this?

I am making a ticket, also. Just want to get more info if anyone is doing this.

This is the FIFTH time a player in our guild has received ZERO reward packages.

People who crash and re-enter are getting rewards, people who afk at a tower are getting rewards

Yet our castle keeper who heals gates, heals players, places defenses, places crystal towers, upgrading towers and defenses, farming merits has gotten NO reward. They are not crashing, they definitely get in damage and kills (much moreso than people that are AFK)

They have a ticket in, yet this is CONSISTENT on the same character. It is rather insulting that the person helping the guild the most during siege has gotten nothing this many times in a row.

I'm surprised your entire guild is getting no rewards, that is even worse

Happens to us (Xareinguardians on reni) on siege war loss. We get packages on tie or win though.

Yeah, it's been loss and win for us. Some people are saying it is third straight but I don't remember. And it is our entire guild.

yea i wish there was a definitive guide on how rewards are calculated, we had a tie the other night and we all got rewards like we had roflstomped the other guild. my only idea was we held 4 towers at one point, they never held more than 3. it was a very close siege.

1 merit = 1 point.

Person with the highest points gets highest place.

10 places in a category.

1st, 11th, and 21st share top prize
2nd, 12th, and 22nd share runner up
etc... etc.. etc...

Not a good reworking of the points/placement system, but thats what we have to work with right now.

Its as if the siege war board of agriculture was solely responsible for this system as it rewards farmers more than people actively attacking or defending. :(

Yes, seige rewards are all jacked up.

Most of the time you do not get was is listed on the closing Battlefield screen.

A couple days ago, almost everyone in our guild failed to get rewards.

The in-game scoreboard doesn't receive that information from the game to display. Instead, the rewards column is calculated from the unit type/rank/etc. None of that display code was updated in this patch when the methodology changed.

(This is also why WR has never recorded the rewards data.)

scoring is what war record is using to try and figure out what rank people got. But the point is entire guilds are not getting rewards, specific people are not getting rewards and we have to rely on addons the players make in order to say "hey frogster/runewaker, you have some more issues of not testing things"
A real sysadmin knows how to change the time.
If you make the same mistake while trying to make up for the previous one, you are doing something wrong.

As much as I'd love to say I offer consulting services, the scope of things broken is too large.

Perhaps it wasn't clear: I'm the author of that add-on. The battle statistics and final unit type, rank, and score are all queried from the game.

I, too, am curious why the rewards page queries return bogus data. It is certainly suspicious to see it at the same time as no goodies dropping into your backpack.

Lastnight we got victory packages for tying, which was fine by us. But when we lose, we get absolutely nothing. (Xareinguardians on Reni)

Interesting.... 5 is what people usually get when they win, often less than that even. Sounds like tie is as good as a win now, not just in quality of packages, but also in quantity.

Oh, and people who have more than 3 classes are clinically insane.

The night before last, I did not get my siege rewards. Last night, I got them before I exited siege. Usually I get them right after exiting. Anybody else notice that?

Ever since the patch I haven't had any issues getting rewards, win, lose or tie. I've never seen my final screen look like the one you posted, though I'd guess it's something in the client (from the patch) that is trying to do something it can't and thus just giving anyone zero rewards. It's really bizarre though how everyone in your specific guild gets the same thing. Maybe someone has a bugged client or something and it's affecting the rest of the players in that siege. Maybe try having one different person each night sit out siege and see what happens? Just something to try.

Curious to know if this is only affecting people from certain servers or if its every server seeing this?

Day 6 of bugged siege TBT

Dear diary,

We continue to run our resources dry, wondering when Mattyb will finally get those final badges to the next title. Honor points have run dry, and materials needed for the crafting festival are now on rare occasion of being there.


Sincerely,
