Well, a full study would have to take the whole distribution into account. I’m not saying the lower-mastery team will always win the toss, just that there might be a better chance. Someone would have to do a lot of coin tosses, keeping track of the relative strength of the opponent to see if there was some sort of weighting going on.
So, a…[Read more]

That’s pretty incredible @richrupp. I know you were jesting, @larry , when you mentioned this might be a plot by Rovio to identify hackers and the like. But it certainly has been effective at bringing them out of the woodwork. If Rovio sees data like this, surely the players in question can have no answer to being eliminated and banned from the game.

@partshade There was one value you provided that I had meant to ask you about. The Blues offhand item you listed as level 41 with a value of 864. It would make more sense if this was a level 40 item with a value of 864, or else the value should be 884. Sorry to ask again, but can you check. @dr_ishmael this may provide one more data point.
KerrAvon replied to the topic Golden Pig Machine in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 7 years ago
@dr_ishmael I played D&D in my younger days. It was all look-up tables in those days.
I agree simple equations would be the most obvious and the easiest option. But they may have their own reasons. You just never can tell what programmers will do.
At this stage I think collection of data is the best we can do.

@Dr_Ishmael — I did compare the values calculated from Excel’s trend-line formula to your data + mine for several sets, and it was all +/- 1. I need to post my data, but I think it might only be 3 additional points.
What I said on the previous page, which you might not have read, was:

@KerrAvon @Dr_Ishmael — None of the numbers for the best-fit least-squares line through the data is an integer. For example, the multiplier for Red/Matilda is 6.047, not 6.

@hhansmueller — Would be better to report your bug here, or even better yet to send a support request directly to Rovio. For which episodes has your score on the big present disappeared? It only happened to me for On Finn Ice, and now that I think about it, one of my 3* scores disappeared as well.
KerrAvon replied to the topic Golden Pig Machine in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 7 years ago
@mvnla2 Yes, it might just be look-up tables based on values calculated from some simple equations. The rounding can account for many differences. But with the Red/Matilda weapons, the factor is a whole number (i.e. 6), so rounding is not going to affect calculations. But as you say, maybe they have slightly adjusted values in the look-up tables.

@burbman I think the combination of Marksmen (with Save Me set) with Samurai and either Priestess or Canoneer do more damage when just attacking the banner. Don’t worry about using the rage chilli for attack – give it to Matilda to heal if you need it.
burbman replied to the topic How often are you matched with hacked arena opponents? in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 7 years ago
Learned my lesson on checking out opponent last night. I looked quickly at XP & Mastery, saw that I was up against 41-10 opponent, no biggie so am I, I won the toss, and immediately knew I was in trouble, when the health bar barely moved on any of opponent’s birds. One shot from Wizard wiped out my entire team and banner. Game then spent next…[Read more]

Solved my own dilemma, re-outfitted Skulkers with Save Me set and they survived the first round of enemy attacks even if I lost coin toss. Buffed up Palladin took over from there.

@killerkea I think you have been unlucky with weapons. I have always been a few levels behind you and I have 3 level 41 weapons and 8 level 41 offhand weapons (although only one complete level 41 set). I have the Plushies set, and just a very low level feather for the Phoenix set. It can just be luck regarding which set items you obtain. I tend to…[Read more]
MVNLA2 replied to the topic Golden Pig Machine in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 7 years ago
As far as I’ve seen so far, the values are no more than + or – 1 from perfectly linear after rounding to the nearest integer. What if we assume the Rovio programmers take undue delight in sending people like us on wild goose chases? They could have a look-up table for the set item values, and either intentionally or unintentionally…[Read more]

I have one today, that I had the first day of PVP, but I cannot remember what lineup I used to get it. “Win Three Battles Without Knocking Out Opponents Birds”
Got it once with Skulkers, Paladin, and Cap’n with Golden Chili. First turn Skulkers to banner, Cap’n buff Paladin, Rage Chili Paladin, then continue to blast away at banner hoping to…[Read more]

@hhansmueller — I assume you mean the score in the game itself. I had something similar happen to the big present for “On Finn Ice”. Haven’t checked other episodes.
Sutekh137 replied to the topic Angry Birds Epic Bugs in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 7 years ago
Has anyone checked to see if the coin toss in Arena play is weighted to give the lesser-mastery team an advantage? Just a thought…
I still think they should turn off knock-outs in the first round of fighting, and that would alleviate a good deal of unfairness. Or, as someone else mentioned, have all battles be two-wave, the first with the right…[Read more]

@eric2203 Sorry, but I believe your curve deviates from the actual data, particularly at the lower experience levels. This formula will also have issues when you get close to an experience level of 100.
If you plot the equation for red’s/matilda’s weapons
attack value = (experience level + 5) x 6,
with attack value as y-axis and experience…[Read more]

There are a number of data points that are in more than one players data sets. The values are not dependent on mastery. The value of 332 has been provided by three people and I believe is correct.
I think it would be really useful if others added their own set item values, even if the exp levels when they were obtained are not known.
MVNLA2 replied to the topic Golden Pig Machine in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 7 years ago
I haven’t been paying a lot of attention to the numbers, but people must have some of the “same” set items obtained at the same level. Are they the same? Is it possible that the value depends on the mastery of your bird as well as your level?
