What's wrong with this picture? (everyone is getting only left maps!!)

[Andy]

On server 7 we are getting just about all rights for the last 2 days. This morning 3 members of my Guild have claimed benefits and they all got rights.

Update, now 6 out of 7 are rights.
Update, now 8 out of 10 are rights.
Update, now 10 out of 12 are rights.
Update, now 11 out of 13 are rights.
Update, now 12 out of 16 are rights.

I think I figured it out. It s another scheme to sell more Gems. Have the maps of one side given out when you claim benefits and the ones on the other side when you get one from a Guild Chest. This way people will have to make Decedent or Grand investments in order to have Contributions to open Chests and get maps.

You only need 1 completed sail to get the assistant bonus.

I think people have become too spoiled, expecting to get all 3 sails in each day, everyday.

Also, if alliances like the one 3 posts before me (Valhalla on server 8) stop blockading the shore, then maybe more people will have completed sails.

Shore blockading is becoming a more common tactic these days. It forces the larger players to have to get involved and hold spots for their guild. It's strategy and yes it may hurt some of the smaller players, but that just means the larger ones in the guilds need to step up and help their fellow guildies. I agree tho Herby that people have become spoiled to getting 3 sails a day completed.

I am not spoiled.

It is not that we are spoiled. It is that you do get the contributions that we can use on chests of to accumulate for Techs. Also the other rewards are nice have.
If you look at my post my numbers are based on what the members of my Guild are getting when they claim. So far today it is very lopsided towards the right, so blockading the shore not the issue. The reason they do that is to see if some one will steal them because none of their Guild members can sail with them. We need a better balance of the right/left maps being given within a Guild when the members claim.

yeah i just ask people to get out of the boats when i need to sail, they are pretty agreeable. I love the way pirates is now. This is the best change to pirates yet

Strategy aside, I think the point of the OP was why there is such a skewed number of a certain kind of map. It seems on just about every server the numbers are so lopsided that it's not even close to 50/50.

Part of the problem could be as well, in conjunction with the pre-determined thread, is that I believe it's not random at all. As in, certain guilds/players get the same map every time. For example, in my server the "actives" get the same map side 100% of the time. I think the other half either goes to players or guilds that aren't online for whatever reason.

So being spoiled is one thing. Having a broken system is another. I'd rather miss sails because my boat is going down instead of miss them because the maps are glitched.

Not about being "spoiled" for me. I usually don't even sail once, nevermind 3 times. Neither does anyone else in my guild because we're not the strongest on the server. We're at peace with not being able to make it across because we're not as strong. Our answer to that is "get stronger". However, we're really not cool with not being able to make an attempt. My whole guild maybe gets 3 attempts per day. Not per person. Per GUILD. Because we can't match pieces.

First: Valhalla from server 50
Second: I thought you would understand my post was not the blockade, but about the ridiculous amount of lefts we have.
Third: YES! I'm spoiled. Before the patch we could get at least 2.5 sails in, now not even 1.

Now, since the maps stopped dissapearing after reset, we are forced to hold the same piece for days.
And clearly the other guilds don't want to steal maps because they are either holding a Left, or do NOT want a Left.
Even if we are not on the shore...

If people are spoiled or not is besides the point.


The distribution is very bad and the reset not taking the map is not helping either. This needs to be looked into.
I agree people should get of the boats though since this does make the chances of that rare other piece sitting down or sailing slim to nothing.
