    Excited for the new heroes and skills and such.

    As for the cross server "King of Tynon" event, I'm fairly certain the crown will go to someone from servers 1-9 rather than 10+, so it's less interesting to me. It really is a shame that those servers are so different from the 10+ servers, due to the distinct imbalances between the way these server groups play.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you. Not only for the planned improvements, but also for letting us know what is coming.

    Some of the newer servers have monstrously strong players of their own. Just saying. Also can't wait for more details on it.

    For the Championship Warfare, I hope that a few things happen:
    1. All who are competing get interesting rewards that make it worth competing for. More like WB events, less like Ragnarok.
    2. The Bets!!!! I think this sounds really interesting! I hope this system works really well, and again, proves to offer worthwhile rewards because it sounds like it will be a lot of fun.
    3. That it will occur at a time that will be convenient for people with jobs.

    Hero Improvements:
    — I'd love to see a hero skill tree that builds upon the existing abilities of heroes. I know that saintings do this to an extent, but they're random. I could see Saffron with a skill path that allows options to make her shield other players, deflect a % of damage back to attackers, or block AoE attacks made from her row. Or BloodStorm gaining a chance to mimic Alexa's double hit, convert damage to hit points, or either an attack that has a chance to do a smaller amount of damage the hero immediately behind and beside the target. This would mean that it would be a much more interesting battle outcome, and people would make hard choices about which tree to follow.

    Thanks so much for the update, I'm looking forward to seeing these things through!

    The skeptic in me wants to speak out, but I will let him lie still for now.

    I am eagerly awaiting the new heroes and skills.
    But I'm not excited at all about the new arena, seeing as it will only benefit a very small percentage of players.

    And as Klepto said, someone from server 1-10 will win it, as having all Guild Cities in their possession gives an unfair advantage over someone from server 11+. Server 5 is the strongest in my opinion.

    Sorry for the delay in responding everyone. I know you have all been waiting with baited breath for me to respond to this thread. Fortunately boroeast gave me some free time to think about the proper response.

    So I will start with

    Thank You Dawn for telling us something finally. I know you are super super busy and finding 5-10 mins to update the paying and non paying customers who support tynon and give you a job is tough to do.

    Secondly, I would like to say I am disappointed in the quality of posts in my absence.

    So with out further ado, its time for Matt's Response to Dawn's post

    Yes, and we all do appreciate the added content. We may not all appreciate it the same. Some like ragnarok more then others. But this added and new content is imo vital to the continuation of this game. So on behalf of myself and everyone else, THANK YOU, THANK YOU SO MUCH. We sincerely appreciate it.

    • New ways to acquire heroes without relying on luck in the Tavern
    • Brand new heroes with unique graphics and killer looks
    • Brand new skills and abilities that look awesome and deal wicked damage
    • Available upgrades for some old school abilities to new and improved versions

    These are a just a couple of the improvements heading your way, and we're just getting started! We hope you're as excited as we are, and thanks for playing Tynon!
    This is exactly what many have been asking for for ages. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! Thsi is exactly what is needed to allow us to progress at a better pace through quests and HR. It will also spice things up a great deal in PvP. This may actually keep me playing this game. However other may not feel this change is enough to alleviate the boredom. I for one will give it the benefit of the doubt and wait for these new heroes and skills.

    Right there, that statement embodies my hopes for this game. It's reading things like this which make me so happy I joined this game. I have always believed Tynon has UNLIMITED potential, and I think many others feel that way as well. I am glad to see the Tynon team shares those feelings.

    I have re read this statement over and over. I want to believe it at face value. But so far the Tynon team has failed to live up to this. Now they may actually be doing exactly this but we don't know, and that is the crux of the issue. Dawn started a thread asking on our opinions of merging the arenas and changing GWF on servers 1-10 to be like 11+ plus possible other changes to GWF. We have all posted lots and lots of opinions and given many other ideas in that thread. However Dawn has failed to really give us any feedback in that thread to let us know how much of what we said is or isn't being taken into account by the Tynon team. Communication needs to be a two way street, and if Tynon truly wants us to be involved in the development of this game, we need feedback on our feedback. The Tynon team may have decided to ignore what we posted in that thread and will change the arena and GWF however they want. Or because of that thread, they will not do what they originally planned, or have decided to put any changes to the arena and GWF on the back back burner and focus on other concepts first. But since we get no feedback from Dawn or any other member of the Tynon team, we just don't know. And without that feedback, Dawns statement seems hollow to me, even though I want to believe it. When I see action based upon our feedback, I will believe it. So far the only actions I have seen taken by Tynon based upon our comments and posts in forums and on billing support are the multiple changes to Pirates, and the fact Dawn has stated they will be changing Valla's appearance due to all the negative feedback they have received. So I do think the Tynon team is trying to listen to us. But we want more feedback from them especially when we are asked for our opinions.

It's time to find out.
    In the words of WWE's The MIZ "Really? Really? Really? Really?"

    The Tynon team is going to attempt a cross server event. This sounds like a massive undertaking. So Kudos to the team for being this ambitious. However, I am really confused. I don't think I have seen anyone ask for something like this any where. SO instead of working on things we have been asking for or addressing bugs and glitches (ie GWF and power display), the Tynon team will be giving us this idea.

    well since our input is welcomed and we are meant to be part of the development of this game let me be the first to say,
    This is possibly the worst idea I have seen yet. Possibly worst then changing GWF of server 1-10 and merging the arenas.
    Here is why.

    First off Specwar of server 1 or Coldlunar of server 2 will be the ultimate winner. They have everyone beat by about 6m+power. This will all boil down to servers 1-10. Newer servers do not stand a chance against servers 1-10 so why should they even get involved? SO all this effort is going into this for what? A 3 day event that happens once. I would hope that if this idea does come to fruition that it happens monthly or something so its not all done for a one shot deal. Because if it is a one shot deal I would rather have the team focusing on totally different things. Also trying to make it so cross server war fare is convenient to all the time zones may not even be possible, so will it be true cross server warfare if some people who could do well in this event cant even participate due to the timing? If they pick a time that both specwar and coldlunar could not participate, how would that show you how you measure up when you cant fight against the 2 strongest players there is? Or if Specwar is unavailable and Coldlunar is? How does that let Coldlunar really see how he measures up?

    While I think this event could be fun, I would really rather find out the team is working on issue such as bugs, glitches and heroes rather than some massive new feature.

    Letting people place bets on the out comes is gambling and I am extremely concerned that this will allow for players to throw battles to let people win bigger in bets. I am thoroughly against this idea. If you want to let us gamble, could we just get a simple slot machine mini-game that we can play while we are bored waiting for cool downs.


    Overall I am glad Dawn finally posted an update. I would love to see this continue. It would be wonderful for this to become a weekly or every other week thing, for Dawn to give us an update. I think that would go very far and help placate many people's fears and concerns over game issues

    I put my bet on Yue of server 5.

    He has 4 complete Light sets. And even his Shayd has an Ironheart Spirit on it.

    Angel IV Shayd
    Angel IV Bloodstorm
    Angel V Adamanti
    Half Angel I Leader

    He "only" has 40m power, but remember, power isn't an accurate measure of capability.

    Look at the rest of the server 5 top 20 and you'll see how much farther they have progressed than the other servers.
