- Do not start a thread about a news story or article unless you make it clear what the story is about, and offer your own opinion to start a discussion.

- Moderators have no access to your game account. If you have an issue you must contact customer service.

Generally, BE NICE. There is nothing wrong with being nice to each other.

Is there a way to stop dragon "vultures"?

  • Is there a way to stop dragon "vultures"?

    According to my experiences from my and my friends' dragon battles, we noticed that there were some people who wanted to participate in every battle, and when they get in, they only hit the dragon once (dmg less than 500). They want a share of the battle rewards but do not make real contributions to the battles. Even worse, they take the spots from those who really want to fight for you but could not get in when it hits the maxium number of attackers. The fact that the rewards of the battles do not always depend on how much damage you did (I fought hard only to find a friend who only doing 342 damage in total received better rewards than mine, which is SO frustrating and unfair) is probably the reason why there is a growing number of the "vulture" population in the dragon battles. Castle Age Support team, is there a way to stop these vulture activities--make the rewards more fair, perhaps?..... Or can we kick them out of the battle?

      Most people start off with the single hit so they can keep track of the dragons their friends need help with, I currently have 5 on the go, when the first goes down I move onto the next one and give it 100% till its dead, if I have not hit them once when they are posted, how else do I know my friends still need help ? if there is a way of doing this I am unaware of, please state how this is possible.

            Don't advertise the dragon once you know you're going to win. Most of the vultures are looking for easy mark dragons that will win and don't have long to go.

              I do the same - I hit any that I can so that I don't lose them. If the dragon dies before I get the chance to go back then no biggie in my book. Considering that the loot is awarded based off damage I am not really gaining much by putting 500 points of damage on the table.

                Well I guess I was a "vulture", but I only hit dragons to get them on my list so I could return to them later, I didn't even get that this was not good for the defeating of the dragon untill a fellow clan member explained it to me... Now I simply pick one or two dragons, battle untill they're done and go to the next one... But anyway, don't know what's all the fuss about, most defeated dragons have 10-20 people who joined in the fight, and those are all that really commit to the game. Those few with 200-300 damage really don't hurt that much, I don't know...

                  Keep in mind sometimes good intentions don't pan out. I attacked a blue dragon ONCE before my son fell and cut his knee. Then I got caught up talking with the neighbor and one thing led to another and by the time I logged back on the dragon was dead.

                  I only got a berserker out of the deal... not bad for one attack.

                  However, I think the answer lies in the rewards. I could "vulture" dragons and get 1-5 items for one hit OR I could stay in and do 50k+ and get really nice items like land, armor, armies, favor points, etc.

                  If ppl are happy with low end rewards... let em vulture. Eventually they will want a huge treasure and will stay in to do 5 or 6 digit damage!!

                    I don't mind Vulture attackers or hit and Runners...

                    But:
                    Why not put the limit of 50 persons who have done 10000K or more?

                    And as an incentive:

                    Only the top 50% get any awards.

                    Those that attack less than 2000 per day are removed form the list perhaps, and the dragon is healed of that damage.

                      Then n00bs almost never get anything.

                        I had a friend with 3 stamina get over 50,000 damage on a dragon, so I don't think n00bs are excluded, as long as they login fairly regularly and/or level up pretty often (I know, I know. Levelling up BAD, AFKing for gold GOOD).

                            you can't say only certain ppl get rewards because then ppl wouldn't attack at all afraid of being in the bottom 50%.

                            Limits don't work to clean things up. I think things will clean themselves up when they learn what the rewards are for hanging in there and doing big damage.

                              Does anyone know if the rewards are pro-rated depending on the amount of damage inflicted by each dragon slayer? Or are the rewards shared equally by every person that attacked the dragon with no regard to the amount of DMG points earned?
