How does making it so the entire server has to fight for 5 level 3 cities, 3 level 4, and 1 of the other levels more fun and competitive. All this will cause is all the biggest players to jump to one realm, get in one guild and run the whole server. Thank god this change is not coming to servers 1-10.
The number of cities is not changing. There are still cities in every realm, just cross realm attacks are possible.
+750% coins and credits?
+750 daily stamina?
+5 free daily labyrinth chances?
This idea wasn't thought of that well.
This idea WILL WORK IF ONLY A LIMITED NUMBER OF NPCS CAN BE TAKEN BY THE SERVER.
For example:
1 Astricatorum
1 Last Home
3 Jengu
5 Koleton
10 NPC4s that give 50% bonus on coins, credits
10 NPC3s that give 20% bonus on rep
This is for the entire server
Where do we find these changes? I've looked around, but maybe I'm just being blonde? ;)Quote:

It imbalances the game too much
What matt said was correct. ALL the big coiners hop on 1 guild and race to the top npcs.
No one can touch them.
well they need to limit the number of each lvl cities that 1 guild can own.. For example 8xlvl3 cities, 5xlvl4, 2xlvl5(just giving a silly example).. otherwise it will be insane..
I wouldn't mind if they decided every know and then to have a cross realm guild competition, but to change guild warfare like that is plain stupid. You'll effectively cause every one of those new servers to die in no time as only a small portion have a chance at anything. Ya sure currently it's basically 1 guild from each realm holding everything, but that's 5 different guilds as compared to 1. Assuming a lvl 8 guild is the max, you got 500 people who can reap the benefits, also assuming you dont let alts in, as compared to the 100 that your new system provides.
Um where did you read there will be the same number of cities, It does not say if they are reducing or keeping the numbers the same. BUt the way I read it, there will be
ONLY 5 level 3
ONLY 3 Level 4
Only 1 of every other city.
Not 5 times that like it is now.
They maybe making it 25 level 3s etc
But i doubt that.
Because then there may be a need to create new names to avoid confsion.
We need a dev to tell us how many cities these servers will have after the new patch
IF and ONLY IF They keep the number cities the same (so there would be 25 level 3 cities) then this might be an acceptable change. But I think there will be only 5 level 3 cities, making it less competitive and less fun except for the top coiners on each server.
But even with 25 level 3 cities that means one guild could theoretically and lets face it realistically have 500% rep bonus.
I for one will not start a new server and spend more money if there are only 5 level 3 cities for the entire server to compete for. And even if they do 25 level 3 cities, I probably wont be starting a new server and spending money on it with this change.
Looks like the patch will not occur on the first 10 servers.
My opinion on the number of cities is to double the number of lvl 3 and 4 cities.
I hope the patch fixed the problem with not being able to heal in Fort D.
Ok think about this. Why are servers 1-10 not getting this patch? Because there will not be the same number of cities now. There will be less. And on severs 1-4 at least all level 3 and 4 cities are capped. SO they would not upset their biggest spenders so far by taking away their cities. SO my conclusion that their will be only 5 level 3,3 level 4 and 1 of the rest seems correct. There may be a few more, but there will not be the same number of cities as thwre is now. There will be less. If they were keeping the same number of cities they would patch 1-10 as well.

This is being done to shrink the number of active players on a server and drive them to new servers. Since more money is spent on a server in its first 30 days. I
If this patch were going to make things more fun and competitive as the mail says, then it would be applied on servers 1-10 where the most money has been spent so far.
I just wish they wouldnt lie about things
This patch is to not make it more fun and competitive, it will do the opposite.
You dont need to lie to us tynon.
If its only 5 level 3, 3 level 4, and one of the rest for the WHOLE server..
It will make things VERY EXCITING!
I hope it becomes like this. So that guilds from different realms will fight each other to their limits!
herby you do realize that the top 50 players on server 1 have he combined power of the next 100 players. out of the top 50 - 12 are in one realm, 12 are in another realm, 10 are in a 3rd realm, 10 are in a 4th realm and 6 are in the 5th realm. You seriously dont think that would quickly become 25 in one realm or more. That is what will happen and the server would be dead in a few weeks instead of a few months.
I've heard it takes 3 rounds to heal at D, but again... where do I find this info?
Same place everything else is documented. Nowhere.Quote:

So will the number of cities in the entire server be a total of 5 realms?
or just the total for one realm?
Well no dev is telling us what it will be, so we will probably have to wait until the 18th to find out, but like I said,
If they were keeping the total number of cities the same servers 1-10 would get the patch as well. Since 1-10 are not getting thecpatch they are reducing the number of cities
And I did submit a claim ticket about point D This was the response I received on the 15th
Greetings,
We are aware of this issue and will have this fixed as soon as we can. We apologize for any inconvenience.
It doesn't say they are reducing the number of cities, so why would the natural assumption be that they ARE?
The number of cities is staying the same per realm, they aren't COMBINING guild warefare at all.
When you click on guild warfare, you can switch tabs to different realms, they're just making it so you can switch tabs and challenge cities in another realm. Your blind assumptions seem wild to me.
They haven't said whether one way or another how the changes will occur so everything we say is technically speculation.
Then why would they exclude servers 1-10 if the city numbers are the same???
You realize they're up to server 26, right? By your theory, they should include 11-26 as well since those servers are in play before the changes have been made.
My guess, is they're not including servers 1-10 as they are kind of flagship servers and have been around the longest. Changing them now might cause an unintended backlash due to some of the large power guilds in place. That and they might be avoiding negative outcry from their higher paying players as a bonus.
Yes something needs to be done about this. Not entirely sure what, but something....anything.... It killed the server off the moment 90% of the major players joined 1 guild in 1 realm. If a cap of some sort was introduced it would atleast give those who are still active on there some hope.
I think a points system might work. Each guild can hold any amount of cities so long as they don't exceed the points assigned. for example: each guild gets 10 points. each city is worth the amount of points equivalent to the lvl the guild must be to hold. So a guild could own all 5 rep cities but no others or hold the lvl 8 city and 1 rep city. hope this suggestion makes sense.
Am open to suggestions, so yell em out if you have any.
