This is what my defense screen looks like most days, sometimes I'll see a Zeus or Poseidon patron, but 90% is Athena patron. She's the lvl 85 - 105 Hermes, she makes attacking far too easy. These attackers don't even try, they just walk through spamming hoplites while the base is torn apart. I've seen good players using Zeus or plPoseidon patron lose to my base by making one bad mistake, Athena patron players levels below me with low skill level win repeatedly through clicking vspam hoplites and allowing the gods to just walk through everything without a care in the world.

YES OMG ikr Athena at the moment is way too overpowered she use to be weak when I played yrs ago but now she is one of the most used patrons and strongest! there is nearly no way to defend against her at all even with Max Aphrodite towers ect. Every one harasses Zeus but only strong players can actully use him properly. Hermes well yh I agree can be over powered but not till your about lev 110 ~ 120 which 90% of players never achieve so focus where the focus is needed dont nerf other gods to oblivion fix the ones that need to be fixed. -
She wouldn't be so bad if there were viable splash damage defenses available. As it stands cyclops become ridiculously expensive after 8, and upgrading them is more costly than the basic towers also. Unless you have them high level they do very little against the hoplites either. Gorgon towers are crazy pricey and with Hera revenge they're usually disabled early on anyhow, even if they do survive their damage isn't high enough to contend with the high hp of the hoplites. These masses of hoplites are just brilliant tools for an attacker. They soak up ballista/other tower damage, they keep troops off the gods, they distract heros, as long as you take out Perseus early you have a cakewalk until the high level bases that can afford 20 cyclops towers, 8 gorgon towers, and everything close to maxed.
Just checked the alliances of a few of those attacking me. Devs, check your stats, unless you intentionally want dominant patrons, as opposed to all patrons being more or less viable options.Last edited by xprs; June 5, 2023, 12:41 PM.Comment

Very True Very True we definitely want every parron to be equally as strong and in turn equally able to be defended againstComment

I understand your frustration with the dominance of Athena patrons in your defense screen. It seems like their use of hoplites and Athena's strength has made it easy for attackers to breach your base. It can be disheartening to see lower-level players with less skill repeatedly winning through simple spamming tactics. Athena's abilities and popularity among players contribute to this issue. If you find this imbalance affecting your enjoyment of the game, you could consider providing feedback to the developers or seeking advice from the community. Remember, game dynamics can change over time, so adapting your defense strategies may help maintain a competitive edge.Comment

You have a great point and yh i will support any notion 4 change in this domain overall we need EVERY PATRON equal in benifits and strength Jay or leroy is it possible for soon a tot patron rebalance so weaker ones like Ares are made stronger and the OPS like athena and hermes are nerfed to balance the game and increase overall enjoyment

Idk how people 90+ are still using Athena patron for my attack levels Athena patron feels like a waste almost a let down

What defence trophies are you guys talking abt the range?? I mean cause for my base i feel only zeus is the true threat...(Hermes as well but Hermes isn't that fast for my level attackers) so yeah i feel if a person has zeus patron and even a single assister it doesn't matter how strong my base is i am defeated... But to all other patrons be it aphro/Hades/apollo/posiedon/Athena/Hermes... My base has done good Problem comes with zeus and hera which is weird...Comment

I can’t say much to Athena Patron tbh because in my level I see her less as Patron. Im Level 130, have now 3 Heroes and if I lose then to 90% only to Zeus Patron. The other Patrons I can win (also Hermes even if he’s fast…)Comment

Zeus is unstoppable mostly. I get attacked much from Hermes players but they lose significantly too.Comment

I'm with you on athena not really being a thing over 105. Just not enough power or sustainability coming from the troops.
I think she is a crutch. She makes it easy if you don't make a mistake but also limits you. From testing myself, up to a certain point (idk the level, I'm clearly not there), patrons aren't needed for players around your level to beat you. At 97, I can beat any of my bases with everyone I have and even without a patron. I'm fairly certain I could do this even up a few levels. So instead of defenses being strong enough to stop most players, it is instead that most players mistakes or inaccuracies that kill them. Don't get me wrong, a good defense still is good, I'm simply trying to say, against a good player, unless the gods upgrades are bad, it isn't enough around the same level. Athena makes it easier to do that.
And as the game is now, I'm not sure it's a bad thing. Tho you really got a disproportionate amount of loss to athena. I'm also noticing how many people attacked you. I feel like I never have near that much except for higher levels destroying me on revenge lol. For reference, I'm at 97 and ~2800-2875 def trophies. I might start a list of patron and level with wins and losses. Maybe do a post later with what I got after a few weeks.Comment
