Conquest Rankings

Any happen to have any info on how conquest rank is tallied? I thought it was based off the number of controlled regions however that doesn't look to be the case, or some are weighted more than others.

Yeah that's how it's done. What makes you think otherwise.

Counting error I assume.

Current on Buhamut

If that's accurate, it has never happened before.

I’ve rechecked 5x. I agree weird it would happen but I can’t see anywhere I’ve made a mistake. Was also weird bastok was winning a region 1 minute before tally but ended up losing it to Sandy some how. I was grinding expedition force last night/today to put bastok in first

Edit:
Per our AI overlords
"Overall Rank (1st, 2nd, 3rd): Determined by the cumulative Conquest Points (CP) earned by all players aligned with that nation server-wide. The nation with the highest total CP takes 1st place overall, even if it barely holds any actual zones."

might explain it.

If that was true, ties would be realistically impossible (without rounding)

Have to assume the server had the smallest possible desync and rolled a city over 1 second early but it actually lost

If ties are an intended mechanic, there's no reason they can't tie for within 50k CP, or within 10%, or whatever arbitrary value they decide isn't enough differentiation to award a victor.

Wouldn't really take AI at face value though; it seems like it'd be absurdly difficult to test.

Could always ask AI to cite its reference? If it didnt pull that information out of its ***, someone fed it that information or it pulled it from somewhere.

Yeah def taking AI response with a grain of salt but it is a plausible explanation. Apparently it’s not just region owned as initially thought u less it’s a bug
