As you know, we're always trying to improve your Battle Arena experience, so we've made a couple of minor tweaks to address some issues/confusion we've seen lately. We are now showing your modified Attack and Defense strength in your pre-arena profile area. After you have joined an arena, but before it starts, you can now see the same information available to you on your arena profile page during the arena. Example (you are welcome to make fun of my weird test account stats): We have also fixed a minor issue with how players' defensive stance times were being calculated. You should now have defensive stance times that are consistent with your defensive stats and perk. If you have any questions about these minor fixes, post them below!
There's quite a bit of activity on our cache servers going on now with the Mothers day calendar and Battle arena. If you are receiving a message about being attacked it's possible either your arena character is being attacked or it it still somehow engaged in an arena action and there was an issue with cache updating. With the reduced activity things should be more stable. We will also look to clarify any response messages shown when there are players locked in another activity.
Was in arena getting that message, I was healed down in regular game, and you know as well as I do, can't attack someone in arena while doing a adventure LOL It would just lock up and would have to sit there for 1-5 secs was random. I just gave up after got a kill stole because of it, I know wasn't guaranteed the kill, but when I couldn't attack because of it gave me zero chance.
This happened during the last Pirate Clan arena, and to a lesser extent the prior Viking Clan arena, neither were during the Mother's Day Calendar, so don't blame it on Mom! lol
