quick question, why is our starting health less in this arena than the last one?

 

what happened to the next arena will start during the week, because kano is closed up on the weekends, so there'd be no one around to attend to any problems? not complaining, spose it just means someone, or some few people at kano are actually going to be working sunday. are they gonna be given a different day off then? idk if i wanna support a company that changes such policies towards their employees seemingly at the last minute.

so, i was looking at my current arena profile and my previous arena profile. and i was thinking, ooh, i can take a quick look and see how much my attack and defense have changed from items and such since the last arena. but they both show the same stats? ?!?!?

 

interesting minimum attack requirement, but how was a 10h window determined? wouldn't a 12h window be better to start out with?

 

I believe there may be skeleton tech crew on the weekends , or something of that nature.

 

skeleton techs? long as they're not zombies. p

 

What's wrong with the battle arena?

I can't see who I'm fighting. ???

It's not refreshing and giving me new fores to battle either. :/

Is anyone else having these same problems?

 

Try reloading/refreshing your browser if you are having an issue viewing the arena. Note that if you have a rank assigned it means that you are out of the arena.

 

Ok...thnx. Also, how can I be dead if I have health left?

 

Well so far, I'm liking it much better than the last arena.

Takes massive amounts of stamina though.

 

dumb question.i was on the first one ..and i did not know what to do ...i must rejoin every new arena or i am there automatically ,because when i wanna join it tells me that the nickname must be at least 20 characters or so...numbers...bla bla ...i tried what ever come to my mind ...and none worked...so i give up believing that i am already in from the first arena...now when i check it seems i am not in..so my question..do i need to join every single time a new arena came,or i am there because i joined on the first place

 

You will have to join every new arena. And more then likely the names you were choosing was either similiar to someone elses really close or was chosen by someone else already. But yes you must choose a new name or show your identity your choice everytime there is a new arena

 

if you can view the arena check your status, if will say if you are alive or dead, in the arena, if you have health left in the arena you are prob still alive, the regular game has no bearing in the arena one way or the other, 2 separate areas

 

I've been thinking it'd be nice to get a separate pool of stamina based off our own stamina level for the battle arena, since it requires massive amounts of stamina.

Doubt anyone will agree though.

 

Kul this has been brought up already and the developers have not said yes or no to it as of yet. We have asked for a stamina boost which can only be used inside the arena itself. So once you die off in the arena that stamina is finished it does not get added onto your regular stamina.

Possibility and just thinking about it kano can add another stamina bar for arena purposes only that you would have to click on to use it inside the arena. And that bar would only show in the arena so it does not get added to outside stamina in regular game play.

 

Ah, good deal then. I didn't follow the first discussion that much, was preoccupied with other events.

 

That was one thing so many players actually did agree on needing more stamina to fight in it. Whether it be a boost pack or half price favor point purchased stamina packs inside the arena one or the other. I believe once it's all said and done kano will do something for us. Because Arena has brought non active players back into it and some who barely play at times do come back for arena everytime now from what i have been reading in groups. So its a positive addition. Just has to come out of beta phase when they have everything the way it should be and then they will look into adding something like that possibly.

 

I agree a lot of stamina is used in the arena but there is a lot of pluses I'm getting a lot of battle drops rare one's too..which is pleasing..done about 30 levels in the arena already lol loving it.
