What a lot of people are not realising is that everyone's covert will have been affected in the same way.

I believe that what the update has done (which has been done before) is to realign the amount by which attack/defence/covert contribute towards rankings.

Therefore, those accounts that were overelying on covert for their rank have dropped, strong atatck/defence accounts will have jumped, and those that were pretty well balanced will have stayed roughly where they were (like me).

As to why it was needed - it was needed to correct the over-effect that covert had on rank. And I can't believe that people are whining about 'losing serious covert' - everyone should be affected by the same degree!!

But it is always about balance - why should covert rule the rankings - surely a more balanced account should be rewarded than one that is biased in one stat?

Besides, from what I understand in another thread - the update has not yet been fully implemented.

no but when you work hard for a **Filtered** good covert its not **Filtered** nice to see it bashed down to basicly **Filtered** also do you in real life penalitze someone for having a very high ability to be covert? i dont think so. so y here.

no but when you work hard for a friggin good covert its not friggin nice to see it bashed down to basicly stuff also do you in real life penalitze someone for having a very high ability to be covert? i dont think so. so y here.


But it is the same for everybody - everyone's covert will have changed by the same factor - so you are, still just as strong in covert, in relation to everyone else, as you were before.

I must also point out in the other thread on this topic:

people are starting to change their minds and retracting their hatred of this update.

Fair enough - but again - it makes no difference if it is the same for everyone.
