Surge huge power drop

[Sauron]

Okay, guys, here’s a huge problem that needs to be discussed.

I’m from server 4 and today, just after the update patch 1.13.2, the surge power has dropped to a super low level, reaching the absurd of more than half of the areas having less than 100k power (which means heroes under 20k power each). Considering we’re the 4th strongest guild in the server (151.8M power atm), this can’t be right. Surge can be almost finished by only one of our strongest players, and maybe not even needing to hire a merc.

I really wanna know if this is just a glitch or if it’s gonna be like that every day because gold income and guild coin income from hiring mercs will drop significantly.

Anyone else having this same issue?

@Polaris can you give us a feedback, please?

EDIT: I’m adding 2 printscreens of today’s surge. The first one shows the power of a O6 Quorra on area 4 and the second one shows the total power of the strongest available area atm

We hve this same problem since 3 months. It happened at least 15 times, lets say once a week (sometimes even twice) after many support tickets and a post in here the problem isnt still resolved. Today we have bugged surge again. On one hand its good for influence cause you can easy beat any area with just 1 hero and 1 merc but on the othr side people who needs gold cant get enough… sometimes areas drop +/- same amount of golf needed tp get 1 good merc…

This was my post: Surge bugged all zones have very low power

Why… would you complain about an easier surge?? Surge has always been a headache and the hardest thing to get an entire guild to do so lowering the level encourages more guild participation. Why would you complain about something being easier?? Just up the difficulty to insane

[Pipsqueak]

Gold earned is relative to the power of tile defeated

Also, Surge difficulty has no effect AFAIK on the actual enemy teams, it just adds more waves

[Harry_Kane]

Correct we are on insane and it was insanely easy robbing us of much needed gold. Needs sorting out.

[Shambo]

Then shouldn’t easier districts = ability to hit more districts, thereby maintaining or increasing previous surge gold levels? I still don’t see what the problem is.

[Sauron]

The problem is that a 100k power district would give around 100k gold. Most of our mercs cost 100k gold to hire.

The difficult was too high before, I agree with you on that, but we were getting 300k+ gold for each district. The problem is that 100k is ridiculously low income for a guild with such high power.

The main source of gold income is being taken away from us, which will block our progress.

I can easily clean a 100k power district hiring no mercs and I will still profit less than when I needed to hire one

We’re seeing same issue in server 2

[StitchyStitch]

It may look good but it means little gold and no hired mercs so few guild coins.

It definitely shouldn’t be like this. We have reported it repeatedly but no acknowledgement that there is even an issue.

[MOKAONE]

After my 6th or 7th support ticket they answered me to stop send them… “no need to open a ticket everytime it happen” but doesnt seems resolved to me… on the other hand it seems even more frequent now…

[Polaris]

We know this is an issue and we’re working to fix it. It’ll be in the patch notes once it’s resolved.

[Turned_To_Sin]

On server 14 nothing like that happened, enemies have the same power as before.

[Sauron]

Thanks for the attention, for fixing it and for the feedback. You rock, Polaris

[Black_Widow]

The surge was completed so easily in my guild today that only a few people got points!
How are the rest of us supposed to get more points for the contest now?

[DaisyTuuks]

Totally agree. Same issue. Only a couple of people got to even participate in surge today - and we have an under active guild- so I am assuming it was one of our more active players who cleared the whole thing by using very few heroes per district. I am one of the most active and it was over before I even got in there

[Aloch]

Is this issue ever going to be fixed? There is no reason we are going on 2+ weeks and insane difficulty on Surge has Orange Level Heros.

[Harry_Kane]

Problem here is it’s a source of gold low gold for rubbish lines. If you need gold this is very damaging

[Pipsqueak]

This was an issue on DS that was never fixed… I’m really hoping it can get sorted out here soon enough…

Tbh, I can’t get where’s the problem. Surge seems way too hard to me, worse than City Watch. Idk how you managed to find only orange enemies, but in my guild’s surge (and we’re not even a top guild) there are Red heroes on stages 10-12. We hardly scored points for the contest bc basically nobody was able to do harder surge stages to get to the next wave.
