| Author | Impossible to Win Ambushes |
|---|
I thought Ambushes were supposed to get easier if you lost? Here are two ambushes of Dark Elf Caravans that I fought, here's the first one I lost:

But instead of the next ambush of Dark Elves getting a little easier it was much more difficult:

Have they made it impossible for anyone to reach Thief Guild Level 5 by making ambushes more difficult even if you lose? What's going on? |
| they eventually get easier but i think it's only 4% each time you lose if i am correct |
those are two very different types of dark elf caravans:
(When picture albums work again you can find dark elf caravan types here)

They are different Caravans. Losing to a caravan only makes that specific caravan easier.
So losing to a caravan of shrews/rogues-minos-poisoners only makes a caravan of shrews/rougues-minos-poisoners easier. not a a caravan of shrews/rougues-hydras |
| Many players have achieved TG5. Each loss only makes that particular type of caravan easier. Each win makes that particular type of caravan much harder. Basically 1 win negates 2 losses. Also caravans get harder as you increase your combat level. Since you recently leveled up, your combat level 11 caravans are now much harder than before. |
Basically 1 win negates 2 losses.
wasnt a win +7% and a loss -2%? |
| Some says +5%/-3%, some says +3%/+2%, or +5%/+2%, quite a few variations... |
Confirmed info from Arctic...
Caravans= +7% / -5%
Dragon Vanguards= +5% / -2%
Hence the confusion.
Also, level up: +20%! o_O |
| wasnt lv +30%?? Or when u lv up from guilds?? and whars dragon vanguards? |
Yes now it is very hard to win ;( need at least one 40% enchanted sword) I still feel hard to win if i use 2x40% enchanted swords (dagger and ruby swords).
P.S. I can rent you my swords if you are interested. |
| Hmm the tactics maybe .. Sometimes some types of caravans are not suitable for certain factions and certain troops placements .. like Shooters in the middle and they killed Shrews first easily coz of the numbers and DE have 2 Large Creatures that cannot attack them coz they are protected .. :) |

for Zephyranna:
witchhammer says there are 8 different DE caravans (each with its own difficulty)

I check some of ur combat against cavaran and i want to ask: What unit u favoured on each faction? U totally disable elf special ability...
My experience as a lv11 elf are worst lv to fight cavaran. But it's history before map changed. After thief map change, i think u can consider do not recruiting sprites. (with small map, efk hit 1st and sprites can rush in to block shooter, but now is different)
My example tactic against DE cavaran, now shrews and rogue have hard time to reach ur GMB and anchorites.

P/S: I love phantom :S |
I also have the feeling that after distance change the difficulty was reset. Wich is bad for me because i played them down to a minart win possibillity before changes.
But after ~50 losses they normaly become winable again.
Tobad lvl11 comes :( |
| I feel with u makkadihm after round about 200 caravans in min ap i'm getting close to the point where they get winable again. But unfortunately I too reach lvl 11 in less than 20000 exp. |
U totally disable elf special ability...
After i check few more combat, i found what u favoured on. Sorry i take back my world :-( |
