    If I were the dev team. I'd just bite the bullet and do a full merge. It has happened a couple times before.. with these merges or deletions of servers and starting anew. The game needs it. Separating and having to deal with potentially two different sets of code is more of a hassle than anything. Yeah, the market "may" crash for people. But those people already have 10+ gold in their bank. I know some people who have 100+ gold in their bank from just the first few months of the servers. Realistically speaking... I don't think anything will crash. If you say don't make portals over. But instead turn defiance into a sail into map with item transfers. Freedom servers would benefit from it more than they think. Especially if you wipe defiance and make a fresh map and allow pmks.

     

    I'd also like to add. That if you allow sailing. That is the only way to transport items. I'd keep portals with no item transfers(how it is currently) for ease of access if both were available.

     

    -1 for the stupid boks and everything else from chaos that nobody likes, as long as that happens im good with whatever


  2. currently the rule is you cannot use a vpn to bypass using your own characters that are stuck in mines and in a different kingdom because of poor design choices that require every kingdom to have alts to cast spells their main kingdoms cannot

     

    i would like to see this revised as its a pain in the nuggets to have to log off of the characters i am paying premium for in order to login to other characters that i pay premium for in order to be unable to play the other set of characters while im casting, thanks

    lets get this pvp portal sorted thank you, theres another 100 players waiting


  4. currently after a drain the disintegrate chance with a 90+benediction mag is somewhere around 90% success rate on disintegrating into reinforced walls on deed

     

    this has been confirmed via dev that its intended to be that way and not a bug even though the change was for off deed reinforcements to be easier and had nothing to do with deeded reinforcements at the launch of the server (and hasnt been adjusted since)

    [11:57:49] <Baeowuf> "@Baeowulf   If the deed has been drained within 2 hours its exponentially easier. If there hasnt been a drain,  you cannot disintegrate and should receive an error.  3:46  All pvp servers act this wa

    [11:58:57] <Baeowuf> According to a dev it is not a bug

     

    my suggestion is reducing it to something not so high of a chance but still reasonable

     

    • Off deed reinforcements will have a much higher chance to break when using the disintegrate spell.

    1. Allow portal from SFI to Defiance.
    2. One time (2 week limited) first time transfer of FS, med path and faith, coming from SFI or NFI.  Not fair to a few NFI people but it's never going to be perfect.

     

    this should just be standard yea, its silly to add an artificial time barrier to people coming from sfi if it happens, for both faith and meditation path level, its just extra waiting that isnt necessary and just hurts both groups imo, people are less likely to stick around if they have to regrind faith and literally just WAIT for meditation cooldowns when they already have the skill. fight skill is the same

     

    and if it ever is done, if theres some wonky "skill only transfers one way" thing, just take a look at epic that doesnt work

    I think instead of Defiance, just nuke all of the other PvP clusters except Epic, revamp Epic to be basically Defiance but allow PMKs, introduce mechanics that made both of those servers attractive such as curved skills (but not increased skill gain), depots, treasure chests, and Valrei events. Allow both clusters to teleport to Epic with skills 1:1, allowing you to grind on both servers. 

     

    Give us a new map, decently sized with starter islands (they can be Freedom and in multiple locations like Chaos) in lieu of home servers, require tower chaining but also allow tower conquering if your influences border each other.

     

    Also allow us to create PMK merch from Epic on Freedom so people can display their kingdom swag on their deeds without needing to sail, as this would no longer be possible anyway. In theory I'm also okay with shared banks across the clusters via transferring coins between NFI/SFI accounts on Epic just to make things easier (unless you could distinguish NFI and SFI coins from each other with equal value, maybe named differently?), but that could be up for debate. 

    this man hits the spot for me :)

    My opinion is that this suggestion and all of your following suggestions from the same post are great and I would endorse them as goals for PVP improvement as part of future development.

    The implementation of Defiance portals for SFI characters to travel to Defiance with their skills intact seems like a change that could be immediately introduced. This would reunite the PVP community right now and simply be beneficial overall.

     

    but this is the most reasonable solution with the least work and raix is correct on that one for right now

     

    +1 please, not asking for much here tbh

    I think every player that has been banned ever regardless of the offense should be unbanned. Previous staff members with personal vendetta's banned a lot of people without good reason or based off of hearsay. A lot of good people were banned in the past due to biased opinion and lack of investigation.

     

    every player is probably a bit too much, but there are certain players that were banned due to the trio of gms that were kicked from the staff team 6 months ago and their cases probably at a minimum need to be reopened

    unless they've made a change to prevent it, yeah its pretty sploity and always has been like that, as long as your character is on the server during the uptime turnover you get a refresh on your meditation cooldowns, and then can med for however many times you can in that window, swap back to the other server thats about to tick over to a new day and get a fresh set of 30m cd meds and continue on with your day

     

    i reported it and got a shrug saying "we try our best to keep server uptimes the same" but this was quite a while back

    A small minority of the game, or a small minority of the game's player base? Do you have some insight into the amount of players who own traders for their deeds?

     

    From this topic alone, I can count way more than 10 people who are upset at this change. I also know of a handful of people who don't actively participate on the forums in NFI alone who are upset at this change - and that's coming from someone who hardly plays on NFI.

     

    Personally, I am hardly affected by this change as my deeds are already pretty minimum on upkeep, but it's grossly unfair for anyone who has traders, especially those who don't participate in the forums, and those who may not even be aware of this impending change.

     

    I'm curious to see an official response to this as it's been well over 24 hours, and we're all still waiting in the dark.

     

    you can add about 10 more people to that list that just won't comment on the forums due to the feeling of their time being wasted with their voices going unheard, and thats just from a small group that I know personally

    Only thing I can think of if total removal isn’t an option maybe you need to be in your kingdoms influence to complete them. But the real answer is

    A. Don’t allow fresh toons to spawn on Chaos(solves the need and should have been disabled in the first place, probably lost tons of players due to them spawning at the landings and walking into DTF and dying) 

    B. Do not allow the canons to be finished on Chaos

     

    yep probably this

    Was the trader discount for deeds an oversight or.....? I'm confused that there was no mention of it in the OP, as it's a pretty significant change for a very large portion of the player base.

     

    Personally, I don't think traders need to be removed, as I don't see the harm in keeping them, even if they are redundant. They are even perhaps a fun insight into the past of Wurm for new players.

     

    With that said, I am happy to see the addition of allowing silver to be used for the purchase of a few more loyalty items.

     

    I'm on the fence with canoes from a PvP aspect, but for PvE they seem like a fun idea.

     

    im not on the fence at all, please disable them on pvp or i will be running around with 12 unfinished canoes, and so will silakka

    We will be looking into adding things people have requested for the new timers, may not be till the next larger update next month though but we have seen the suggestions and are adding support for them where we can going forward.

     

    for lockpicking will this timer be based on skill gain showing in skills tab or based on a real internal cooldown? because at higher levels of lockpicking you don't even get skill ticks so you don't know if you need to keep picking or not, like other skills except they don't use a 10m cooldown

    This.

     

    But remove raid windows, as nice as they are. They're also just as dumb.

     

    just inverse it, i think setting an 8 hour window so you can get some damn rest or whatever is probably good enough, nobody wants to defend in the middle of the night, but as they are they're too restrictive for time zones

    Well if we were all interested in pvp on chaos or epic we would have played before the new servers. I know there is people who play both servers but they all played on the sfi cluster before. Me myself started simply because it would be fun with a Fresh start. Why would you want to take away the reason why so many people came back to playing again?

     

    because its going on 3 years and my alt on nfi now has more stam than most mains have strength on sfi and its no longer a fresh experience
