A guide to the best time to hunt for BH medals

Day 2,066, 14:56 • Published in United Kingdom United Kingdom • by Vilh Smecwald

Based on an analysis of the top 20 damage-dealing countries for Division 4 citizens which took into account levels of damage and likely peak hours of activity, I drew up the following graph to reflect the amount of damage done throughout a day:


Conjectured Worldwide Division 4 Damage on Day 2065

Basically, the amount of damage done significantly decreases after midnight, before rising again in the hour after day change. I would be hesitant to say that 7 and 8 AM are good hours to be hunting for Battle Hero Medals as it seems hard to believe that there would not be a significant increase in activity around day-change time. It may really be the case however that day-change has no special significance!

The evening and early night part of the day are especially bad times to go for a Battle Hero - probably because this is the time of the day that the Americas are adding to the damage being done by those who woke up earlier in the day, particularly in the European powerhouses.

The best time of day is clearly the early hours in the morning, particularly those ones where you absolutely should not be awake.

I have also drawn up a graph for Division 1 readers:

This is not too different from the first graph, but I should stress again my reservations about the low figures around the time of day-change.

In addition to the time element, you should consider other factors to maximise your chances of getting a Battle Hero, e.g. the importance of the battle, whether the country you are fighting for has a strong army for the division grade you are in, whether Plato has any missions for us to complete, and whether people's heavy artillery is close to the expiry date.

I think essentially in this article I have wasted time stating what has probably seemed bleedingly obvious to many people but perhaps had some doubt about - i.e. maybe because they thought that Americans with Mastercards would steal their Battle Heroes in the night or some such.

If my figures seem suspect and/or if you have some cool insights into the best time for Battle Hero hunting, do write in!
