I play in multi player and get 5 star,sometime I dont get the NTG,whats wrong?

 

[Tower]

Happens sometimes. Other times you get 2.
Annoying as H when u get nothing

 

[Thud_]

Extra annoying when you attacked them just to get the trade good.

 

[Quovatis]

You should be guaranteed at least 1 NTG with a 5-star victory. That just makes sense.

 

[K1ng_kriting]

are you guys always get it?

 

[DynoBot]

At one time, 2 NTGs were guaranteed after a 5 star win. NEXON has since changed this probably because NTGs generated a lot of crown use and probably dropped off a great deal after the change was made, so they changed it back to be by chance (NEXON claims a glitch made the change back to random NTGs but I believe they made the change on purpose). I would like to see treasure chests and boats contain NTGs to make it a little easier to collect. It would also give an incentive to keep medals high and help against medal dropping looters.

 

[Empire]

Yes, its extremely annoying when you attacked a target with no loot just for the NTGs and get nothing.

 

[Master Contrail Program]

Agreed. Fix this nonsense Nexon. 5 star victories should guarantee a NTG. And why do Aztecs and Cherokee love tea so much? 12 Teas to get in 9 hours and you want to pull this random crap.

I think (unconfirmed) that there is only a 90% guarantee of getting NTG on a 5 star attack, and you get more/chances are increased by how much time is left on the clock when you five star. I don't think it can be any more than 90% because of the additional 10% chance available from 5* in the university. i notice I rarely don't get NTG from bases I five star with time left on the clock.

I actually like this element of the game, though I know many in my alliance still struggle in getting the NTGs ready for every war but it means that if you have high level coalitions you have to strategically decide which coalitions to upgrade, when to use your best ones, etc. I think the UN has helped atomic age players with this too, especially those advanced players who don't have time to make so many attacks in one day.

Frustrating that I need so much tea but there is so little around to get

 

[jmemira]

i always seem to need salt for some reason, spare me a pinch of salt and I will pour you a cup of tea...

 

[Vixen]

I love my cup of tea.. English heritage... would you like some cheese with your salt!!

 

[Quovatis]

If the base chance is 90%, the additional 10% from the university brings it to 99%, not 100 (10% of 90 is 9). Would be nice to know the actual probabilities at 3, 4, and 5-stars.

 

[Gundolin]

I don't understand your last part? If people are guaranteed a NTG with 5 star wins it seems like they would be more likely to drop medals in order to face easier opponents and five star them.

Win one battle for five stars, drop two or three quick battles to bring your count back down, then repeat.

 

[jmemira]

Quovatis oh no you've exposed my weakness, math! Good point, I would also like to know the probabilities at 3 and 4 stars, and what makes it likelier you get 2 or just 1, time remaining seems to be the best guess of most of the people I've talked to/my own experience.

 

[Persia]

People buy NTG shipments for 75 crowns? Or do they buy them individually? Seems like a huge waste of money to me when you can just drop your medals and raid weaker bases, or not even do that and just muscle through it wherever you are in terms of league.
