Hi. I'm interested in collaborating for AC. not joining as i already have a big group of my own i'm also trying to recruit people to.

So is that still something you're interested in or no?

Do you have LINE? Perhaps so we can discuss collaboration details.

By the way i'm from the MILF community. Profile somewhere in this thread.

Hey VV. saw your top 14 finish. Congrats on winning a tough week and good luck!

Do you have LINE so we can discuss? Otherwise, i'll just DM it here.

Btw i'm the lead of the MILF community..Profile somewhere in this thread.

Hi marvel.. Just wondering if you guys are open to discussing collaborating in AC?

I think so too.

I understand what you're pointing out with how cooldown lengthens skills 1-3 cooldown. But as you said yourself, ak still keeps spamming 2. Why isnt the ai using 1/3 more often then? They have low cooldowns as well. Thats proof that it simply has a higher chance of activating compared to other skills.

Why does your mate's jean use her 5 very often on offense to the point that the ai spams and uses it consecutively? I think he simply has good rng. And how many alliance mates are we talking about? Tbh, i wish NM would just do a better job of explaining this stuff in game.

As far as different sets of ai on offense and defense, aside frkm the reddit post, i have confirmed this as well by asking for feedback from opposing alliances what skills (how often too) our jtcs use on defense and comparing it with my own tally on Offense. Theres a disparity over time.

You said it yourself. You were facing a strong alliance . Aside from some rng luck (small sample size) , its also possible that their teams were simply better than yours. Their heroes were better built than yours. Maybe they have bomb or boost. I have also experienced what you experienced against a superior alliance and it simply boils down to they had better builds. I've also been on the opposite side where i received feedback that they couldnt kill our jtcs with their jtcs.

Anyway i'm not seeking to convince you or anything. Believe as you wish. Just sharing knowledge and hopefully other people find it helpful.

Oh i'm not saying that everyone has 50% cooldown in AC. what i'm saying is there is no such thing as a cooldown stat in AC. this is for ac alone. This is old. This is like before IW winter soldier's time. It's just that not many know about it or refuse to believe when proof is presented. Like the whole jean has gbi penetration thing (which is another popular fallacy used go explain lack of knowledge in game mechanics).

Your experience with jean sounds about right and is the same experience i've had along with the experience of folks i know in top ac alliances who have reduced cooldowns. Again this is because cooldowns dont matter in AC. each hero's skills have preset percentages to activate on both offense and defense.. The general pattern is the ai prioritizes skill 1-3 on offense (there are exceptions of course) and skill 4-5 on defense. This is why it frustrates players because you see your jean using her weak skills over and over again and your opponent's jean use her best skill over and over again.

This also refutes that cooldown exists in ac because if lowering cooldown did indeed allow you to use your skill 5 more on offense why can we still see heroes like ak spam skill 2 over and over again on offense and see an opponents thanos spam 5 over and over again?

Its simply assigned percentages and your heroes are at the mercy of RNG. of course if you know a heroes "tendencies" you'll know if they are best used as a killer or a defender.

A korean contact of mine shared that he asked a korean CM why is this so? The answer was it was to give advantage to the defense since offense already has bomb and boost. I cant confirm the veracity of that since its just a shared quote but i am firmly behind the "skills have percentages to activate and these are different on offense and defense" train as i did see a previous reddit post years ago where someone provided percentages for every hero at that time.

I cant confirm for AT as the post i saw was only specific about AC.

While it is true that top ac alliances do that (i do that and tell my own community to do that too), its for a different reason: its because cooldown doesnt exist in AC, its a wasted stat. You're better off replacing cooldown with other stats such as ignore def.

i mean i guess the end result is the same. Its just the reason of how to get there is different. You can set cooldown to "0" and the ai in AC will be the same over a big sample size. There used to be a post here years ago detaiing the percentages of each skill for offense and defense. Just cant find it anymore. For example, i clearly remember the baby groot's skill 2 was set to activate 66.7% of the time for offense. this is why you see it it spammed alot. Similar high percentages are alloted lets say for aks skill 2 on offense. He can have high cooldown, low cooldown the results are the same. The ai will use that skill more often than not on offense. There was also a part in the post where certain heroes have a different ai scheme when they are alone and when they are with others. You"ll notice this very clearly with apoc on offense.

I agree with most of the points except the cooldown thing. Lots of folks have a very big misonception in the past. It has been datamined before that each character has preset activation percentages for each skill for offense AND defense. Most of the heroes on offense have a higher percentage allocated to skills 1-3 while most heroes have a higher percentage allocate to skills 4-5.

NM has been known in the past to tweak these percentages to encourage uni buying (for example the IW winter soldier when he came out was spamming 4-5 repeatedly on offense and was feared in ac circles. After a few months, this AI was tweaked again to what the usual. Is now. Nobody's scared of winter soldier now)

In short, as per that datamine the cooldown stat DOESNT exist in AC. you can set it to whatever percentage you like and it wont change anythinf.
