Transendence Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 It's okay to have a failure rate 3 or 4 out of ten. But to have a failure rate of 8/10 because rng is too unpredictable? That is too much, even for this game. Last year was most fair because success rate was more or less 50/50 best on our common strategies. The failure rates of this year are just ridiculous. But okay, ill give it the benefit of the doubt that we havent invented a "correct" strat this year. But will there ever be a "correct strat" based on how random the odds are? These are just my thoughts.Β LipeHaru, Jgaw, TipsyTurvy and 1 other 4 Link to comment

I agree that is too high a failure rate, but I am sure there are better teams out there to at least make it 50/50.Β Shadow, Quakkz and Doctor 3 Link to comment

I honestly don't see an issue with pumpking being rng based. Otherwise, players would find a team that works 100% of time, which would be a problem for the market. Buffing the pumpking keeps the market balanced, at least until someone (again) will find a great team that everyone eventually will copy. I am not hiding some ΓΌber special team myself. Yesterday I tried out the team I used last year with Aerodactyl, Krookodile, Honchkrow and Tyranitar as backup. It worked but nowhere near perfect, but I think it's fine. I am sure better tactics will come.Β Doctor and Jgaw 2 Link to comment

Doctor Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Also, like someone else mentioned, it's the second day of the event, you can't possibly expect people to develop a failproof strat in less than 24 hours Seth 1 Link to comment
PSTLV Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 I mean, previous year was also RNG based. The best way to deal with RNG situation is by learning. Β For example, based on my experience: -Pumpking always soul drain when my team was low HP. What should I do? easy, keep our team's HP as high as possible. -Pumpthief happen to outspeed my team on turn 3. How to prevent this? Set up tailwind on turn 2. Β We can't expect the strategy is the same as the previous year. Even though I agree that this boss is hard, this is still day 2 of the event and we still have a lot of time to learn what should we do to increase the probability to win the fight.Β Β Wish everyone a good luck!

Darkoure Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 is there any tactic with 4 mons instead of 5, getting particles on your shinies/mons depending on some good rng and wasting alot of heal stuff is not worth xO Link to comment
Raichuforyou Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 I'm going to say what I did last year, but the difficulty of Pumpking should not be reliant on how much you participate on the forums/in a team and crack the code on what is the most niche set of mons that plays most efficiently against the boss. Difficulty that is created through the obfuscation of knowledge and information is frankly lame as fuck, especially in an MMO setting where an attempt costs resources, alongside your tools. I think they're going the absolute wrong direction from the previous year, and as a result they're making a less accessible event. My ideal event would to have him be beatable by most doubles comps. It's just surprising that the same team that made the insanely fun Ho-Oh and Giratina battle is also churning out this. Β If it's for economic concerns, then they need to neuter the pumpking gift bags, or the rate that you get special candy to fight Pumpking, instead of making the battle even harder. Frankly I don't want to participate in the hard mode battle against him at all, and I'm just going to sell my candy. SodaNaranja, PinkWings, Deliburd and 4 others 6 1 Link to comment
