SNOW WARS - Knowledge sharing and unofficial FAQ

[SolarCat]

Removed current HP.

New form:

[B]The current level of your snow fort:[/B]
[B]Its max HP:[/B]
[B]How much it costs to repair it:[/B]

Do NOT post current HP for safety reasons!!! (Snipers, ninjas, etc.)

Perhaps we should ask the HP after the fort has been repaired?

[Bells]

Does anyone knows if the badge on your scrolls change colors/design at certain point? (just like last year's cooking event did)

[kaiachan]

@Evolette Thank you very much.^^

They do. Mine is silver now.

The current level of your snow fort: 4

Its max HP: 50

How much it costs to repair it: 1

 

I'm curious is what determines HP. I don't think I've seen anyone answer that yet.

[Evolette]

What do you mean? Asking for a person's current HP after their fort has been repaired wouldn't make any real difference, as it's already the maximum. If that isn't what you meant; you don't need to wait until your fort has been repaired to show everyone your maximum HP.

The buildings and walls you use to create your fort is what determines the HP.

No, as in, "My fort was at x/y and it took z snow to repair it."

 

As in, NOW it is at full hp, but what did it take to GET it there, and where was it at BEFORE you fixed it?

 

Same information, but AFTER it's NO LONGER a SECURITY THREAT.

Apparently it's supposed to go from bronze to silver around level 18 or 19 (or something). Not confirmed yet as far as I know.

It's definitely strange. o.o

 

Flitzthesoulreaper did not receive a Silver Badge at level 19, yet my sister, AliCole, has a silver badge and she's still level 19 (with 64 EXP).

 

EDIT: My sister can confirm that level 20 can be reached with 68 EXP, she's only 4 EXP away.

With regard to xp earned after a fort is destroyed, I got no extra xp for destroying a fort. I got the standard 2 points for using packed snow.

[SolarCat]

But what if it's still at x/y?

That's why you don't POST until x=y.

AFTER you fix it, but what it took to get it there...

 

As in...

 

I just fixed my fort!

It was at 2/10 and took 1 snowball.

Hmm... so you'd like to add a form?

Yes please. Post something like that. Without the current HP (or the difference between the current and max HP), the previous form was much less useful.

 

I believe that the cost of the repair increases with the amount of damage that has to be repaired, but I would like to be able to prove it. And the best way to know is to compare the costs with the amount of damage.

[SolarCat]

You hurl a loose snowball at dragon_cave's pile of rubble, dealing 0 damage.

You gain 0 experience points.

 

I just got this.

So if there is no snow fort left, you don't get any experience for that either.

That should make it easier to dissuade snipers.

 

 

And new form!

 

[u][b]I just fixed my fort![/b][/u]
[b]My Fort's Level:[/b] 
[b]HP Prior to Repair:[/b] 
[b]Max HP:[/b] 
[b]Snow to Repair:[/b] 

 

How's that?

 

It will look like this:

I just fixed my fort!

My Fort's Level: 9

HP Prior to Repair: 5

Max HP: 10

Snow to Repair: 1

Edit Omg, SolarCat, did I just repair my fort by your account? o A o

I'm so sorry you had to gain no experience, and waste snow.. I honestly didn't know my fort would be destroyed with like one freakin snowball.

Meep. No game for me for another hour~

 

Omg...

 

So my fort just got destroyed.

And I had only one igloo. 5/5 health

 

I had no snowballs, no nothing.

And it let me repair my fort for free

 

Is this supposed to be happening? :I

What is your max HP for your fort?

 

It should be the bottom line, something like this:

Fort HP x/y - what is the "y" number?

This could prove useful for the stat collecting.

 

And no worries. It was a surprise, though!

 

 

EDIT for Evolette: I realized I had left out the fort/player's level, which I think is important, if you could add that in?

[Bugzilla]

At 13/17 HP, it still costs only 1 unit of snow to repair my fort.

 

I am waiting until someone attacks me to see when the cost increases. Maybe at 12/17 (5 damage) or at 7/17 (10 damage). I will see...

Edited December 19, 2013 by Bugzilla

[Dragon_cave]

What is your max HP for your fort?

5.

 

sold my last igloo for three snowballs...

 

I'm level 11, 27 xp...

[Bugzilla]

Confirmation: the new ice buildings appear at level 15. I will add them to the OP a bit later.

[Evolette]

Sure!

 

I just fixed my fort!

My Fort's Level: 24

HP Prior to Repair: 2

Max HP: 10

Snow to Repair: 2

 

I need 3 Loose Snow hits to find out if 25 is the maximum.

 

EDIT: Level 22 at 80 EXP and level 25 at 98 EXP. Update the first post, Bugzilla?

Could you fill out the form? I think that's useful...

 

 

EDIT: Thanks! And don't apologize.

This is good for information gathering. That's very useful to know, especially since it also means that the cost to repair is related to the HP, and this is the first official confirmation we've had of that...
