Now I know the point of this! [borderline rant post]

Standing 12th in fleet placement, 11 minutes till payout, lowest opponent is 8th place. I know I can pick up 7 from 12 cause I've done it before. Also 8th is a tough one some I'm trying to bypass him. The idea is to jump to 7 and from 7 to 4 or 3.

I start refreshing opponents I get 8 again, 8 8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8 8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,9,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,9,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,9,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,9,8,8,8.

3 minutes later I get mad, 7 hasn't showed up once after over 100 refreshes. I'm beginning to rage, I call people names, I use every curse word I know, finally I admit defeat. I think to myself "whatever I'll go for 8th and then 5 or 4...". I get into combat with number 8 and I lose by a couple hits. I look at the clock and there is 5 minutes until I can battle again and payout is un 5 minutes. I'm thinking about buying a refresh but it's pointless cause I didn't spend all my attempts anyways. So I just settle for 12th, when I should have been able to hit 3 or 4.

I guess I should have payed more attention but my rage got me blinded. I have a serious suspicion that the devs have made it impossible to jump more than 4 spaces at 12, because Chimaera made it easier to climb. I am 100% certain that I should be able to jump 5 places from 12th. It's these small differences that matter in the end. We need a system that allows you to pick the lowest rank possible without going through the nightmare but I guess as long as it serves this purpose we aren't going to....

8 is the highest you can get from 12. It's the first rank that can jump only 4 spots. 13 can jump 5 spots to 8 also. It's always been this way.

Rank 13 is the last time to jump 5 spots. Starting at rank 12, you can only jump 4 spots. Been that way for a while if I recall correctly.

I know you're talking fleet, but I use this reference daily for regular arena.

12->8 as far as i know

Lol! Everyone is 100% certain that you're wrong. 12 has never been able to hit 7. And from what I know, a lot of arena chats have this chart saved as one of the pinned messages.

BTW, I would have refreshed for sure. R12 prize is 100 crystals, R8 prize is 200 crystals. You'd have net gained 50 crystals PLUS Fleet Currency.

I will say this, even though op is incorrect, I can tell you that jumping max spots is getting ridiculous. I really don't think it's all rng either.

Kyno

as stated above, 12 only goes to 8.

are you on discord?? Jedistar is your friend

Darthpedro

Had this happen to me a while ago could have sworn I could jump from 10 to 5. After a couple minutes of refreshing I checked with jedi star and he corrected my foolish misgivings and decided to go 7-3-1 to avoid reapers

In fairness I've seen it happen once, it's seems like 0.01% though since after a year I've only seen it once, but still

Must've been a bug, since it isn't coded to allow you to go from 12 to 7
