So, yeah. F2P fella here. Long story short, SS usually = instant loss, especially since my group's strongest player haven't even passed 30k in power.
So now, I'm trying to weigh my options. On one hand, 15 coupons is still 15 coupons. 15 coupons can still help me gain power.

On the other hand, 50 coupons for whichever Tom, * or Harry for the day means that Tom * Harry get to be that much stronger that much faster.

What do?

In my opinion if u r one of those strong players who can fight off anyone, do Plunder, chance to get 150 coupons a day. That would give u criminal status for a day.

The thing is that u recent lost to plunder.

But if u wanna get full 30 coupons. Pick the right time to do convoy when other strong players are doing some other events.

There are many ways to get coupons these days not just convoy.

plunder if you can, coupon is basically ingots obtainable in game and if you are a f2p you need every single coupon you can obtain everyday if you want to stay competitive(to some at least). the extra stones are useless compared to 150 coupon for a f2p. every coupon counts.

If ur so weak that plunder isn't even an option, * to doing SS. You won't be able to catch up with those players anyway so get that 15cp every day and get as much power as you can. Even if you stop doing SS they will just plunder from other players so you are the only one at loss.

might i suggest a stratergy..if u are in a server thats 200++ with less than 50 active players..i think u can keep track of who is plundering and who isnt..ouh and maybe wait till the last 10 second at the end of *..if u time it properly they cant plunder u..u can even do SS mission during events such as sage(since u will probably get eliminated early..good luck

just save your ss till last and just click set off 5 or 10 seconds before the end of the event then you will be fine and wont get plundered

Can you convoy after the 9pm (server time) window. Meaning you accept the SS mission at maybe 8.59, but set off at like 9.20 or something. Is that possible?

Yup, that'd work, running after closing hour (you have 30 mins to do convot anyway). However, the pluder list could be refreshed at any given time, so if they (or their alts) happen to see you running ss at that time, they could still catch you.
As for whether you should run it or not, depends. I understand how frustrated to be plundered everytime you run SS with no mean to fight back. So, erm, ask yourself this: What would help you more: 15 coupons or 500 ~ 600k coins?

Perfect! Thanks to reading the reply, I just managed to plunder at 9.10pm (server time), when the convoy window ends at 9pm.

And it seems that the convoy support didn't activate. I spoke to that person right after (well, he spoke to me cause he was pissed), and he had a group mate support, but it didn't appear. So I'm wondering, that is either a bug, or support doesn't work past the actual event time window.

plunder event is to make strong players more strong n let weak player die, all the events basically if u r strong u get tons of stuff if u weak u get leftover scrap. so they already getting tons of stuff from all the events now they also have to steal from weak player. Thats y i fvking hate this game n leaving.:curse:

if you're a in situation where you cant convoy successfully because your support is never strong enough, and you never succeed at convoying, then I would consider a few things:

1) convoy about 15 minutes into sage. (so about 7:50 - 7:55 PM). Everyone strong in your server is in sage. They're not likely to leave to go check plunder. If they do, you're costing them a position in sage. I'm assuming from your post, you have no chance to win sage. So just go in to sage, do one or two battles, refresh, go check the convoy.

2) Convoy 5-10 minutes into Nine Tails (so about 8:25 or 8:30pm) for the same reason.

3) The other good time I think to convoy is 12:00 - 1:30pm.

if you can't convoy during lunch time, I would wait later and later in the day to SS convoy. The reason is that if a plunderer doesnt find a plunder by 7:30pm, they might give up and go convoy.

I don't think it's smart to just SS convoy right away, I would rather risk not getting an SS convoy rather than giving up 50 free coupons to the strongest people on your server. That being said, i'm writing this from the perspective of a plunderer not a convoyer. You're giving up 105 coupons a week by not SS convoying. But you're getting around 105 contribution points and coins (if my math is correct) which can be used for group lucky wheel and you're also not giving 350 coupons to people already stronger than you.

IT seems waiting until after 9:00pm or after convoy is over to run your SS doesn't work anymore. My group member ran SS with us at 9:01pm, after convoy and plunder closed, and one of us ended up getting plundered. :(
