Increase Pay-Out for Battle Factory

[DoubleJ]

Battle Factory is by far the hardest of the various "battles" to play and it takes the longest amount of time as well. Unfortunately it doesn't really award many points at all. 

 

Would love to see an increase in the payout for Battle Factory. 

 

That is all. Thank you and have a nice night.

I've suggested this since the first pts but didn't get an answer for that it's just obvious that people would prefer every time to play battle tower since it is easier and it gives good payouts but in my case this tower is the best, funnier and diverse

I have no immediate disagreements with this suggestion, but I do think it's important to mention a fact which most seasoned players seem to overlook:

 

You do not have to build a team for the Battle Factory, it is entirely 'free'.

[Arimanius]

Well you don't build a team for battle tower either, u just use your normal comps

[Darkshade]

Well you don't build a team for battle tower either, u just use your normal comps

 

That's what I'm saying; most players suggesting an increase already have comps to use.

However the fact that not every player has that readily available seems to be overlooked.

[Arimanius]

Well in that case the tower that depends on nature and specific moves should give the highest payout since u need to build pokemon just for that tower and they're not your normal comps

While this is true, I still believe there should be some sort of bump. Where as I'm getting 70 wins in a row on battle tower and making 2100 a pop, I go over to battle factory, struggle for 7 wins, and get 375 before getting RNG'd out the next round of 7. 

 

Battle Factory is by far the funnest one to do, but its lack of rewards hurts really, really bad. If I were a new player too I'd have a little angst towards it and likely wouldn't play, despite my not needing to grind up comps.

How about getting BP each trainer you beat in battle factory?

You do get BP for each trainer you beat, it all just adds up in the end after you win 7

But getting to 7 in battle factory is like, fuuuuucking difficult. And you get jack shit when you lose at 5 or something.

So why not let that battle swap guy give you your BP each opponent.

I know it doesn't happen in the games but an addition to make it easier (don't know if it can be done) would be to start off with the team you won with if you defeat all 7 trainers next time. So upsetting finally getting a decent team of 3 only to start over again next time and lose due to sheer rng.

Sounds like a pretty good idea but if you were to get that godly team u could litterally breeze through it and make fat stacks of bp

makes it more equal to tower then

Well then go do tower

I'd argue that this would actually make it more difficult. The opponents as well as your starting choices get increasingly more powerful as you build up a streak. You could start with with your "great" team of Pokemon too weak to get used in standard NU and find yourself up against Flygons and Salamences if your streak is high enough for those to be selected as your opponent's team.

I've not built up much of a streak in battle factory but how much of a difference is it usually between the last opponent of a set of 7 and the first opponent in the next set of 7?

 

On a little side note: a few times by the end of the first streak I've ended up with pokemon such as Metagross and Slowbro, even ubers such as Snorlax and Blissey, albeit with a terrible moveset.

i suppose it would have the same mechanic as tower but its just speculation Edited August 31, 2015 by Bilburt

If that was the case then it'd be no problem, first couple of times you only come up against scrubmon.
