What they dont show is that during the day there are usually large swings in populations. From freeps greatly outnumbered to creeps outnumbered. Would be nice if there was some way to breakdown maybe 4 times a day or hourly to get an idea of the different populations and inf/renown gains at those times.

Thanks for rolling these graphs out Vyxe! Very interesting. Freep vs creep renown really shows that things are almost equal, and the population is almost equal as well. So, looks like things are pretty well balanced.

that population data must be wrong as it shows freep numbers being pretty much a match for creep numbers

the forums clearly state "the creeps outnumber freeps by 3:1 margin",

and "the only reason freeps get more renown is that many creeps are doing pve".

if all those creeps are doing PVE stuff then where is the 3:1 outnumbered freeps thing shown on the graphs?

damn math QQ

Interesting note on the last piece of analysis.  For all the complaining about wargs... in terms of infamy per warg average, it's rather sucking vs the rest of the DPS classes.  It's consistently lower than weavers, BA's, and Reavers.

Raw data excel sheet.  Macro's are available for your review (I recommend not using them unless you understand what they'll do)

FYI all those bad spikes and zero's are where Surugi's site failed to take data.  So the next time it took data, it grabbed EVERYTHING from the zero'd out times.

 

Other thoughts:  7/17/10 was the highest number of wargs at 210.  At the same time, Reavers + BA's were 114+127 = 241.  As of last week (8/21), wargs were at 163 (loss of 47) and Reavers + BA's were 129+135 = 264 (gain of 23).  So.. wherever the wargs went.. if they went to BA's and Reavers, less than half of them transfered.  Nearly all other Creep classes except defilers have held steady or declined (particularly weavers) and the defiler increase was from 70 to 73, so not exactly a big increase.

Not surprisingly, Hunters, LM's, and RK's have been the fastest increasing freep classes.  Our weaver heavy raid groups and more emphasis on killing burgs in raids may have been putting a dent into the burg population (maybe). 

 

P.S. Champs also have been going down along with the burgs... so maybe the emphasis of defending within our lines is working.
