  1. I mean, you'd wish they spend them on CHs and not something that would actually benefit them and hard snowball their lead. That's one of the big points of this system. It gives clans a consistent adena sink so they don't stack too many adena. 

    Also, this is not interlude, adena are much harder to farm, because spots are limited so you have to fight for almost everything, plus you can't make gigantic destro pulls.

    With the biddable CH every month, what's stopping the top 10 clans to just put adena on alt clans and bid for 4+ CHs each month?

     

    This biddable system really promotes hard core clans while punishing casual/mid-tier clans.

    First of all, this is completely pointless in 1.5. And secondly, "hard core clans" have way better things to sink their adena in, rather than denying CHs to random clans they don't care about. You're speaking as if these clans will have billions to spare for such insignificant stuff.


  3. Just noting that the suggested values lead to a lower frequency of epic deaths than Talking Island. For example Orfen's retail spawn is 36+12 (42 h average / 48 max. Whereas it's 52 h minimum with the proposed values). If people are fine with it and wouldn't want to reconsider the exact respawn timers, we could start discussing whether epic drop rates should be adjusted to come closer to the statistic drop frequency over certain amount of time of retail settings.


  4. I mean. That's why we're asking for lower rates and no boosts. We want to avoid becoming like Talking Island with everyone walking around with overenchanted shit and lvl 80s like it's nothing in 2.0. 

    Keep in mind that general client knowledge is way higher than what it used to be back in 2015, so it will be much easier for people to speedrun. 


  5. Have you considered making some kind of index where people can register their clans/CPs? People can approve of items as "CP/Clan property" that ultimately belong to the leader, who is also approved by the members. Would that make the process easier?

    It could also be used as a politics map of the server, would be pretty interesting to look at.

    1) biddable clan halls

    we saw how club eventually changed and how ppl were scared to pvp coz of losing exp, not stnading unless they get bress. now imagine CH bidding is every 2 months, someone decides to overbid you and you lose 50% return xp for 2 months, thats absolutely crazy if you asked me and will decrease amount of pvp.
    once you succeed to get good CH, i dont think you should be worried about suddenly losing it because someone decides to screw you up. You want to get rid of adena on server? you want to not have dead clans sitting with CHs? make it that you pay big adena for actually maintaining CH, lets say 100kk for low tier CHs and like 500kk for top tier CHs a week.

    The problem with that is that this way the price is regulated by the GM, not the buying power of the community. Any amount of money you decide on will either be too much or too little in different stages of the server. Of course, this can be monitored manually, but do we really want GMs to interfere with that? 

     

    If the problem is "exp loss relief", then we should look for alternatives to clan halls, imo. Maybe some clan skill or something.


  7. I disagree with your 2nd point. One of the 2 big servers with dualbox disabled right now is C1, which has no herbs or newbie buffs. Plus, do you really think that casuals actually dislike the absence of dualbox? I think it's the opposite. It favours casuals who don't wanna go too hard and hard core CPs with lots of drivers that rarely have activity issues. Average CP would often have trouble logging everyone. 

    As for monetization. Is it really much of a difference if instead of a 2nd window you get a little boost in rates? It feels attractive to the player, plus it encourages people to buy premium for many of their chars, instead of just getting it on just one buffer box.

    1. Monthly clan halls - very good idea.

    2. No boxes - we could try it at the start and if people will cry to much, it could be changed.

    3. Imo x1 is too hardcore but x2 with 25% bonus from PA should be fine.

    The lower the rates, the more longevity it adds to the server. I feel most people are just too scared to try. I assume that majority of players want to delay reaching the server state where literally everyone walks around with +16 weapons and +8 armors as much as possible.

    its still sad that there will be no catacombs.. we are alot of old players, who feel thats its the only thing we need to really enjoy.. and now with the merge... new server etc.. sadly we may have to find another server

    The game has plenty of dungeons for group play at all levels already. Why do you want catacombs in particular?


  10. The change is bringing DEX/WIT to their 2.0 attributes. The purpose of the changes was to nerf fighters like DA abusing WIT. Mages are not affected by it much since they get compensated with the passive. 

    It was always like that. You are just realizing it now.


  11. It would probably be helpful for admins to add more poll options like "I am not playing on the server but would join a new one." or "I am currently playing on the server, but would switch to the new one". This way they could tell whether opening a new server will bring new players or just recycle existing ones.

  12. Farming low epics is one of the best ways for new/upcoming clans to catch up to others that already have huge advantages over them,  since they offer the conditions to fights in relatively equal terms. Making them high lvl will deny these clans that opportunity and will allow the clan with the lead to snowball even more.

    All dinasours have this "Beast" attribute, so gladiators self "Detect Beast Weakness" should work, but unfortunately it doesnt. Can you pls check that?

    I think it's because these mobs are actually ketra/varka mobs patched to look like old school PI mobs. If you use a clean patch, you see them normally and not as dinosaurs. You may even already have noticed that some them block your attacks as if they are holding shields when they obviously don't. 

     

    I've also heard some people playing daggers, qqing that the mobs' front/side/rear are not accurately defined.
