Re: Let's talk about PvP system!

Imagine what it's like: I've PvPed for 2 or 3 months, and if I don't want to lose my progress, I'm forced to play battlegrounds at least two nights a week just to not lose any progress (without progressing at all). Actual progress is out of reach as long as I'm unable (or unwilling) to play at leas...

Re: Remove Turtle Mounts, Azure Drakes and Cloud Pets

Me personally I would rather pay a sub to play here rather than to have an option to buy some stuff I really don't need to help the server out... The cash shop is just meeh This is extremely illogical. There is absolutely no way a private server can survive with a subscription model. Many come to t...

Re: Let's talk about PvP system!

I'd say that a glyph for stopping rank decay/rank gain is a no-brainer, though. However, it would have to be non-exploitable: As soon as you get the glyph, you're out for the whole week. This would *at least* allow players to take a break - it wouldn't solve the issue with R14 being practically non...

Then I'd say you made a wrong choice playing on a RP-PvE server as if it was a PvP one. Or a wrong choice of game at all.

If you are ranking raiding a city to get 500 honor bonus for killing the Faction leader is the most silly thing you can do because you will get more penalty with Dishonorable Kills than you gain by killing the Leader.

Re: Let's talk about PvP system!

I’d favor a more horizontal progression where the main divide against old and new players is mostly skill based than gear based. As for a system implementation, I’d guess expand or retune gear stat/requirments. There could also be lv 60 custom crafting quests given by battlemasters that simply have...

The essential issue with R14 ...

Re: Remove honor decay

Honor decay does not only affect R14. And why should it even be so that "not everybody gets it"? If somebody is willing to invest the time needed to get r14 then they should get rewarded. If somebody is asking for RP not to have decay, then they are just asking for an easy way to get r14.
