as i posted in the other thread: i've never had a problem with guys dropping 20-30 cubes to mvp my seeds. it just helps take the boss down quicker. heck with the amount of seeds the past few days that have 500-600 mil remaining when it times out, i wish there were more guys that would 30 cube my seeds. the way i look at it, he dropped 30 cubes to take the boss down and made sure i didnt waste my bc seeding a boss that times out. i would like to thank people that do that.

i dont even see what the big problem is, even if someone takes mvp from me who cares? i'll mvp the next boss, it's not hard to scan another one. unless you're trying to mvp everything you seed in order to get medals a rubies, it really doesnt matter at all. and if you are doing it for medals and rubies then you cant complain about someone else doing it too. you should make sure you've done more than 50%.

if it's about getting the 50% bonus points then all i have to say is that if we're criticizing people for dropping 20-30 cubes to mvp the points and saying that they can gain more points by just tagging bosses 1 by 1 then the same would apply to us. as a t1 player (and someone who needs as many points as possible) i've never felt compelled to go for mvp (unless i was getting the last hit). i just hit my seed once and save my bc for the next boss. you get more points that way without wasting bc's.

the only situation where it matters is if you're ranked 95th-100th and need all the points you can get, but in that situation you should be hitting bosses for over 50% instead of 1 cubing and hoping no one takes mvp from you.

the thing is, while the tier 2 and 3 cards are useless to most people on this forum, they're actually strong cards for people who are just starting out, so when these guys see a level 8 boss being seeds (which doesnt happen often for them) they make sure to mvp it. they spend 20 cubes to get 75k points instead of 1 cube to get 50k and waiting for another boss. i remember when i was new i barely ever saw any level 8 seeds. maybe 1 or 2 per hour. and if you're tier 3 or 4, 19 cubes on regular stuff you scan only gets you maybe like 30-50k points. i'd rather just use those 19 cubes to get 25k bonus points from a level 8 seed than waste time scanning for 19 bosses and waiting on the queue.

one last thing to consider is that not all players spend hours upon hours per day on this game. i know that's hard to believe for people like us on this forum who do that but there are people who want a t2 or t3 finish but dont wanna spend more than 30 minutes a day on it. so when they see a l8 boss they smash it then move on and i thank them for their contribution.
