Did 1.10 solve team Balancing?

Or is it still "Dog pile on the Rooks"?

it might be dog pile on the rooks, but at least we get lots of perk rides

Last night just before reset:

Knits: appx 190
Bish:  appx 160
Rooks:  appx 260 <<

Some times its still a bit lop sided agianst either the rooks or the Bish..(on the nights I play) but no where near the constant pattern it was befor the change..parity is much more common I think.
And the perk rides thing is signifigant. Especially when you can get 262s for less then 100 points, and your enemies are likely paying 400 for it. Very unlikly to come accross an enemy 262.

Seems a very signifigant change.

It makes a difference most of the time.  I've noticed that the rooks still seem to be more prone to logging off if the war isn't going well, however.  Right before bish or knits are reset, the numbers were pretty even across the board.  Right before any Rook reset, the rooks seldomely have more than 50 pilots... even when they still have 4 bases left.

 so, that would make it 350 vs 260, more even than some occaisions

That happens about every other Sunday...seems that there are some that co-ordinate joint squad ops then. It isn't the norm.

I noticed the rooks did it when I flew rook last tour too.

It wasn't biased by what side it was.  I haven't seen similar (nearly as drastic) behavior from either the bish of the knits.

Just an observation.

AKs flew Rooks for how long?

 ..
 
ps) but anyhow, I think the perk-induced balancing tool is giving some positive effects.

Which time? For most of the AK's existence in AH we rotated monthly through all three countries.

Just a pile of nonsence.

This is a clear and simple sign about the growing frustration Rooks had about the constant imbalance..

If Knights and bish would have been 'in the hole' like rooks were for months and months over, you'd see similar movement there too. It's not fun trying to fight impossible odds day over night - so people log off. I did that too when I got sick and tired to fighting 10:1 over vulched fields. Eventually I got so sick of it that I cancelled my whole account. The ultimate logoff.

I love that perk ballance thing. It did not helped much, but at least now majority of those number complains threads gone. I hope that eventually numers will be even also.
