Default Clan battle in beast queue bug.

Our team was next in line for beast. We got CB'd. We won. Then another team was called into queue and killed the beast. If this is working as intended it is unfortunate. If you win a cb, why should there be penalties for winning? I know you sign up for certain things when your clan signs up for war, but losing out on game features because of participating and being victorious is not one of them. So either this is a bug, or it should be changed so that the victor doesn't lose out just because he has been cb'd.

You would have gotten a notification if you were pulled out of beast queue. If you did then yeah its a bug. If not then you miscounted. Winning a cb keeps you in queue

Currently, if you are in a CB when your position in queue comes up you are notified and removed from queue. If it worked differently, i.e. if it kept you at the #1 position as you're wishing it to, that could easily be exploited by people purposefully delaying their fight with a beast until it was very low health.

So, what if MY team is next for beast, I get pulled into CB, 2 seconds later the team before me dies to the beast, but I'm in a CB and eventually win after 3 minutes... My beast queue spot will be held since it is my turn to have a crack at it??

You get pulled out of queue if your spot pops and you're in a fight.

It's a douche move, but people will do it.

Glitch I think you didn't understand. He's saying that he got cbed and killed the team that cb him. Before the next fight for beast was even up. Then when he is naturally up next still waiting for the current group to be up, he was not. So in my opinion it's not working as intended. From my understanding, if you are q to fight beast and leave the square, you lose your spot "cb,pk,dying to mob" also will take you to town which in turn means you left the square. So in those cases you would leave q seems how you left square in some way shape or form.


How ever as it is. You can q for beast then go into combat pve and heal and if you exit before your turn is up you get to take your accurate turn at the beast. Same theory should apply to cbs and pks. If you are pulled into or initiate a battle of some sort and win "still in same square as beast" then your turn should not be skipped if it had not passed while on that fight. Obviously the loser of the fight will be sent to town and obviously they will lose their spot. BUT if you win a clan battle and the beast has not slain anyone during the time you entered that battle and exit the battle, there is no reason why it should not act as a pve battle healing waiting on beast. It is not exploitable because if you are waiting for beast to have low hp then you will also be skipped... You have a little window that is very random to get the beast. I'm taking a crap at the moment writing this on my phone so if this doesn't make sense I'll try again later from the laptop.

on my screen (semper's) it showed tale killing opri/nibbles then beast killing current team and me entering combat with it. so the main question is as it happened pretty fast, are you guys positive you exited combat before it killed that team last team. if so then yeh theres a prob i think. but if any doubt then well.

A screenshot would help with the confusion.

Also, it depends on who queued. If Phantom was the one who queued beast, you'd be pulled out of queue since Phantom was killed during the CB.

Just repeat for multiple effects.

DO NOT multiply by 1+slow% to get your new delay. 1*1.4 is not the same as 1/0.6 and your answer will be wrong.

Then it could have been a simple matter of not getting out of looting in time.

Why not change it so beast pulls you out if combat/clan battle when your turn comes up?

Should make it simple. Can't force when queued.

Why, that takes out all the fun of beasts. I thoroughly enjoy helping people CB others and ruin queue timings. It's fun! And working as intended!

Support. This would ensure fairness in beast queue, while still allowing irritating individuals to screw up people's place in beast queue.
