exactly,,i could have a gcb of 10,but if you had 5 or 6 skills in your weapon..my gcb wouldnt make much of a difference..as for rayne who posted that he could beat someone with 1 or 2 in gcb,,,hahahhahahah...sorry man it doesnt help that freaking much,,,if it did id be able to dominate alot of players who didnt have a gcb as high as mine,,but yet i still get beat..skills are more important than a gcb,,the gcb just helps..i havent seen a difference tho,,maybe its because ive been in diss since i was 1 week old,so ive always taken full advantage of it without even knowing it..if i left diss and fought my usual targets i would gain a better understanding of its full power..that would be the only way

Everything is purely speculative in nature as related to gcb until zen posts it up
and yes, skills imo are much much more important even to the point they are too strong...down with skills!!!

I know that there is a certain amount of randomness too, but I am not sure what else could explain the difference.
When I lost:
Combatants The3rdWiseMan (I will leave out their name)
Level During Fight 10 12
Starting Health 550 Healthy
Hits 9 12
Best Hit 140 117
Gang Points 0 0
Totals
Total Damage Received 709 521
Total Damage Resisted 96 73
Total Damage Taken 613 448
Averages
Damage Received Per Hit 59.08 57.89
Damage Resisted Per Hit 8.00 8.11
Actual Damage Taken Per Hit 51.08 49.78
And like I said, the only thing different when I won was that I activated the gang bonus, though I think that I might have levelled up once in strength:

seeing as how loyalty is a factor, that makes perfect sense in your case.

how do you activate a gcb??? its automatic,,,maybe you used gang back up or protection..

You must be talking about Gang backup, not GCB. GCB is the one that appears on the gang summary page and is upgraded for the entire gang on the gang upgrade page, not on an individual basis on the member list.

reopen for discussion please. 3 years later there must be some conclusion.
RE: Gang Combat Bonus - spacebird - 2011.Oct.05 10:32 AM
my conclusion is that gcb is a waste of gang points.

heres an easy way to find out, find someone who you beat every time, just barely. then leave yor gang and try them out again. give it like 10 fights in gang and 10 fights out of gang. then start crunching numbers, im sure bbh will give you a hand.
