We will requre your user id to be able to review this for you.

 

I think that the problem that alektra is trying to explain is a common problem known by everybody on the Scandi server. Even though you have the required boarding bonus and the best Boarding Officer it is not possible to board the Usuper.

This happens regularly that it is not possible for anybody to board the Usuper as the boarding icon is simple missing. It is not like the boarding icon is not lit, it is just simple missing, there is no icon in front of the vessel's name. When this happens (about 1 out of 3 or 4 Usuper), nobody can board the vessel.

If this is intentional by BP that not every Usuper can be boarded or a bug, I don't know?

 

take notice to see if boarding cooldown is finished when usurper spawns,maybe it dosnt appear then,,or are u changing ships after it spawns,4 better boarding value,ive lost the icon doing that,,

 

Ithink more have this problem skandi serv not only me you write exaktly what problem is wery god i cant so god englisg ty sea sea

 

No, I have not noticed if the 30 sec. cooling down period is still active when the usurper spawns and yes, I change design shortly before boarding as most players do, but I have noticed several times (especially if there are only few players shooting it, which should make a successful boarding more likely), that nobody is approaching the usurper if the boarding icon is missing and the hp is down to 60 mill when you usually can board it (I never approach it for trying to board it if the icon is missing as it is useless). If the boarding icon is there, there is always a lot of players approaching the usurper to try to board it? This tells me, that the boarding icon is not missing only for me, but all players.

 

This issue has the possibility to happen when an NPC spawns within your view distance, and can happen on any NPC.

Note: Although you may not be able to see the boarding icon, other players may be able too.

How to fix?
Simple, if you F5 you can see the boarding icon again and the board it

That means that if nobody boards the Usurper, they have all been in sight of the spawning NPC and nobody was pushing F5?

 

But I will take your advice and try it next time, ty.

 

Well not everybody chooses to board the Usurper; for some players they do not have the required Boarding Bonus, for some players they do not make profit from boarding the Usurper, some just do not want to board the Usurper, among other reasons.

There is also a risk when F5'ing in the Commonwealth Raid, sometimes you can be transferred back to the regular maps when F5ing, which means you would need to use another Lionheart to regain entry into the Commonwealth Raid. In order to prevent this, either shoot a ship then F5, or get a friend to shoot you while you F5, this will stop you from being transferred to the regular maps.

I can say, I have had this issue countless times of the icon not showing; F5ing solves it each time

-Arky

 

For most high level players, boarding Usurper gives 50K + pearls in profit, so not trying to board it makes no sense?

 

I shall repeat my comments above; for some players they do not have the required Boarding Bonus, for some players they do not make profit from boarding the Usurper (e.g. no boarding bonus gems), some just do not want to board the Usurper (e.g. they want most damage to win the Skin). There are multiple reasons as to why players may not want to board it, but we are getting off topic here, the point remains just F5 and you will be able to board it

-Arky

 

Arky is right, I always fix it just by f5ing. Additionally to your point however ARKY, I did hear that you will no longer be kicked out while f5ing but I am not sure how reliable that is. I think f5ing works (or worked) the same as closing the tab. It seems to wait 10-20 seconds and then activate the logout timer. I THINK either this duration has been increased or maybe it does not activate as quickly in the raid map but I have found times recently where I will maybe have a power cut or lose connection (you know how bad my internet is lol) and when I log back in 5 minutes later I am still in the raid. But yeah, off topic so swinging back, I did hear that if your cooldown timer has not reset when the Usurper spawns then it will not appear for you for the Usurper unless you F5.

I hope this helps,

Thanks,
