Lack of arena battles?

Is this screen capture accurate? Are we getting less than 100 arena fights per day? Trying to get anywhere when you're to weak for missions and not able to get any arena competition is rather off-putting.

BTW, took the screen shot just before 8 p.m. central daylight time.

yeah that seems about right, i have seen it lower though. best just do mission even if you get poor returns the number of fights will counter that.

Colinus, what level be you? 0 is just a roll of the dice, but I'm having decent luck at level 1 right now keeping my head above water. (And actually the 205K mark) Mayhaps the issue lies in builds, and we can help you.

The big push though has been to get everyone in missions. The thought being that even if the biilds are bad, you have more targets, and you can back up your allies. Roght now, no one gpes in because no one ants to be the lone wolf. But that dies seem to be changing somewhat.

Not when you're constantly spending more in repairs than you earn in experience. I'm gonna be broke in about a week and a half at the rate I'm spending money in the CR chamber. :BANG_HEAD: Primus I miss my old level 6s. I feel like a newb in a game I've played 5 of the last 6 years.

I'm all mid to to upper level ones. I had some at level 2 that I redid in part to experiment with the build and also to cut on my repair costs.

It may perhaps be worth keeping a couple of your bots at level zero when your in the lower half of level 1, just to get a bit of free energon to help out with repairs

Might not hurt to put up a request for some financial aid. There are a lot of higher level bots that have funds they can spare and usually are willing to help out lower levels.

If you're a Con player I'll give you some cash if it'll keep you in missions.
EDIT- Just noticed you're a Bot. If any Cons want cash to cover your mission costs let me know.

Wow! Thanks! Very generous of you. If that doesn't get me on solid footing I don't know what will.

Thanks again!

No problems; hope you can put it to good use!
Of course, I'll be expecting your soul on a gold platter in return... :twisted:
