Debunking Wingfield's and Obelisk Theories

Day 2,476, 11:32 Published in Ireland Ireland by Releasethe Krakken

We have basically 2 theories.

Obelisk: Do not attain Mercenary Medals by fighting against our enemies.

Wingfiel😛 Go for mercenary medals but just fight for the enemy if their losing.


IMPACT OF 1 PLAYER COMPLETING AN MERCENARY MEDAL
As Nyx can remember one gets a worst case and best case scenario in computer science. In the best case a player will fight for all countries enemy/friendly.

We have 74 total countries in eRepublik. eireland belongs to the Aurora alliance which is on friendly terms with the Siruis alliance.



Our combined "friends" is 16 countries strong.

Our combined enemies is Asteria and leto and is 19 countries strong



74 - 19 = 55 countries.

But Nyx claims to be a math major.

If my alliance is 16 members and my opponent is 19 members and I fight for each country in all of the alliances friendly or enemy. What is the combined gain the enemy will have.
19 - 16 = 3 X 25 = 75 kills.

Oh no . I just killed 75 more players for the enemy.

But did I. no remember that pesky things called DO's. Most players goes for DO's as well.

So if all of DO 's is for my allies and Ireland I fight 30 * 25 times more for my alliance = 750 kills or exactly 10 times more than the supposed gain the enemy had from the mercenary medals.

TOTAL DAMAGE DURING A BATTLE FOR MERCENARY MEDAL
Now the second thing is the amount of damage you do.

A mercenary medal requires 25 kills:







I did 2 million damage for Sweden and fighting agaisnt them for the UK I did



3 million damage. So you see as pointed out by fighting for and against allies my net result is 3 x 25 kills. Which is max 9 million damage for the enemy.

Taking it I am Division 4 how much damage can 9 million damage do to the cause of our enemies if on weekend romps I cant even get top 5 with 2 and 3 million damage.

At the end I gained 2 countries.



STRATEGY

Not each country is available every day/week /month. Some are rare fighters , some fight often. Usually my strategy is to get as many rare/small countries I can. At the end I complete the countries like Chile, Poland, Serbia that fight a lot.

If I wait like Wingfield for the opponent to lose and he doesnt and that was his only battle that month. I have lost that country and my Mercenary is so much more difficult. Best strategy plunge in any country you dont have. Period!

Tonight'S roster looks as follow:



So Albania, Czech Republik one may struggle later on. As you can see quiet night

SUMMARY

I played the game and participated in an activity of the game seeking a mercenary medal.

TBH I still do not see what the big deal is. Oh I get it your friend wants to be CP and now your making mountains out of moleholes.

I will encourage players to do whatever the ..... they want to gain more gold/money for them to help build up their account.
