Arena CAPs

No, this isn't a thread promoting or denouncing arena caps.

I just found the Orange to Blue ratio strange.

That's standard.

CAP in LWB is always higher than LWO.
Like usual, LWO caps get increased when LWB is reaching 70% (in this case, 105 players)

So 101 in Orange is full if Blue has 99?

(I fail to see it being designed that way)

No, 101 is full in Orange because the cap is 100 .

 :devil

As Blue approaches 150, as the snail says, 105, the Orange cap will increase(?), I think.

Anyway, it's normal.  Caps are a bit low but the ratio is OK.

I have hard time to see where the problem is

It has been designed that way. Basic CAP is O100/B150. Once B get's filled to 70%, O's cap is raised. And so on:

I never was on during the time the arena changes over before, just thought it was strange having the total player number so different but the caps not changing.

Thanks for the info!  :)
