  1. +1 This is exactly what will happen, kings will never leave their deed.
  2. voted yes. Drake was fun on wild and pve servers but it ultimately becomes unbalancing and causes way too much drama. There have been some good suggestions in this thread that would still make them useful but not OP like drake/scale
  3. I'd rather completely remove priests but if that can't happen, I'd like Fo to have access to the fun looking critter that was recently created but hasn't made it's way into the game yet. How can you say it's unbalanced, when it hasn't even been implemented yet? One might say that farming champion creatures on HoTs home and bringing them over by boat to Elevation and then making zombies from them is a bit unbalanced too, since Mag & Fo cannot source better pets from another server which actually has decent spawns. Affliction only has better spawns because its a fraction of the size of the other servers...blame your carebear kingdom that needa giant pens and 10x the landspace for nothing.
  4. This is the exact problem. Bear in mind we say this being members of the kingdom that currently has this advantage....its too overpowered entirely and needs to be scaled back before too many uniques die to it.
  5. -1 unbalanced compared to zombies. More religion and unbalanced magic bs is *not* what wurm needs right now IMO
  6. +1 I agree conpletely with the OP. I imagine the intent was not to have people running around with a dominated dragon using it to kill the others. IMO prevent dominated uniques from attacking other uniques or increase the chances of it going wild in the presence of another unique or a large gathering of players. The crown needs to be useful but not to the point where it makes the toughest mobs ingame a mere speed bump.
  7. we agree on this..... We agree on that maybe, but the player moderation would be BS, it would end up being a bandwagon of sissies just like it is with /dev on freedom where whoever has the most bandwagon hoppers creates a lynch mob that just spams /cm until they silence whoever they don't like. i.e: every time I tell you off, no matter how moderate it is, you and all your little friends cry on /cm and then I get muted. I'd prefer if there was no CMs and very little if not no GM interference on Epic. The fact that some CM/GMs are allowed to even PLAY on epic when they moderate/gm there, is a terrible idea in my opinion. Kill a CM? You better bet they will find any excuse they can to mute/ban you. Kill one of their friends or village mates? same thing. Giving players who have an investment in the game and the players who they interact with a direct ability to moderate those people leads to swollen egos and biased abuse of powers. People are greedy, selfish, prideful and weak.. they are bound to abuse the power given to them, for that i'd like to see all CMs gone and any GM who moderates epic to be absolutely forbidden from playing there, ever. This isn't a flame against any of the current CM/GM team, I don't really pay attention to what they do regardless, I just think it's a bad mix because there has been a pretty storied history of GMing etc in the past on Wild and I would hate to see that happen to Epic.
  8. CMs might be necessary on freedom servers, on epic, especially HOTS it's just a waste of time and effort. If you can't handle being on the mature side of things, then go JK or go back to freedom, epic being heavily over moderated is a bad idea.
  9. If they can get to within a tile of your token....youre going to get drained regardless....so this complaint is a moot point. Regardless...it should be common sense that you dont build windows anywhere near your token. Also, it has been this way forever...unlikely to change.
  10. Map dumps

    Why hello there, map dump user. The witch hunt begins.... Didn't take long to prove me right.
  11. This is a terrible idea. I hope nobody supports this, this constant over-reacting and knee jerk solutions is what ruins servers. I truly hope Rolf doesn't take this seriously.
  12. Not a good idea. Anyone who played that map will snag the best spots right away. Similar settings maybe, even then...lots of wasted landspace for nothing.
  13. What I mean is ita not *hard* to know what is going on most of the time, but there are situations where it becomes more of an issue for varying circumstances...like having no sound or mobs spawning on you. At that point its less about situational awareness and more about a lack of mechanics that this feature would adress. Nevermind..ill just forward this to the appropriate person...
  14. Sieges

    Stop using crap locks and pallisades then?
  15. Map dumps

    Reporting people performing illegal activities is bad? Excuse me, what world do you come from. Where I come from its normal to report to the police (read;gms) when someone is performing illegal activities so they can be stopped in doing so. Sure, the damage has been done, but it will prevent said person from doing it again in the future. I don't see how this is bad. You must be purposely misunderstanding what I'm saying just to troll because its pretty obvious that I'm not saying reporting people is bad, if it was done legitimately and there was any logical way of actually proving it (there isn't unless the people spreading it are dumb enough to do it in-game in kingdom chat or something equally dumb). What I am saying, is that a lot of false reporting will go on and people will point fingers at those they dislike for completely unrelated reasons just to get rid of them. It WILL happen that way, trust me.
  16. I agree completely, as long as it's done right (like atom has suggested), I think this would help a lot. It's not hard to have situational awareness, sometimes it's hard to keep track of everything. If nothing else, it should definitely show when a mob "moves in to attack you" because that's when they've actually engaged.
  17. It's still the middle of November... way to early to be saying Merry Christmas man. You kinda jumped the gun like WAY ahead of time on this one in your desire to be a bit of a brown nose. Also, if you look at the numbers, I'm sure Rolf does just fine financially. Not saying I disagree with the idea, but the timing is silly.
  18. Map dumps

    While I understand what you guys are trying to do and I admire the effort to make the game better, you are suggesting something REALLY dangerous here. 1) If people are going to make dumps you can't stop them, I know this knowing the nature of how they are doing it from what has been posted over the years. 2) Once the dump is created, it will be saved on HDs and image sharing sites ad infinitum, so at best all you can accomplish is finding out who originally submitted them and even then you don't know if that's the person who made it or not. 3) What you are suggesting (reporting people) will lead to a WITCH HUNT, it's a terrible and ill thought out idea and coming from someone on the dev team is really not a good thing. So, while I agree that the map dump is an unfair advantage and finding a way to curb it would be a good thing, suggesting that people start accusing each other and having you guys deal with it (which really you could never verify unless its people dumb enough to talk about it in-game) you will be dealing with more trouble than it's worth. I really hope you think over what you're saying, or you can expect people to start reporting everyone they don't like (i.e: the opposite kingdom or anyone who has ever PKd them) as TOTAL MAP HAXORS OMG +BAN! Anyone who has been in this community long enough knows this will be the case if this kind of thing is supported.
  19. +1 to this idea That is laughably unbalanced Xallo. You can't even be remotely serious. At absolute best, Life Transfer should be equal with myc, as it's a weapon proc and far more useful in combat than Myc is. Myc is ONLY helpful in pvp on defence, and even then that's only if there is some inside the gates.... so really it's not as overpowered as you make it out to be. Your suggestion would put things WAY out of balance in your favor, we're suggesting a small tweak that makes perfect logical sense. I'd even be for nerfing down how much myc heals, as long as it doesnt just heal ALL your 1pt wounds before the 20pt medium, as that is infuriating.
  20. This should have always been the way it was IMO. In the vast majority of instances when I get off my horse I still want to lead it, for the rare occasions where I do not, it would make more sense to have to choose to stop leading. It's really a matter of figuring out what a player does more of and I think dismounting and continuing to lead is far more common than dismounting and just walking away.
  21. Pretty sassy response for a GM..... That being said, the point is not to have to look at it and do the math based on numbers in there, It's not that I am personally incapable of doing so, however, not everyone is familiar with the exact weight of an item on a 1:1 ratio, especially newer players. So instead of relying on players always knowing what 1 x any item weighs, why not just put the weight column in an simplify it for everyone? You can't possibly believe there is a legitimate reason not to put this in, it's likely already even there just disabled to save space on the column list, which is resolved by changing volume to "vol" and weight to "wgt". Simple, elegant solution and one less needlessly complicated thing for people to deal with.
  22. I agree with this completely. Sucks having to check the wiki every time.
  23. I understand that BSBs show a count as well as volume and that is important because they have a volume limit, however, it should not be difficult to add a weight column to them and perhaps change volume to a simple 'vol'. This would be great because it's nice to glance at a bsb and know "oh we have only 50kg of cotton left, better get some more" rather than seeing a number with little actual importance like volume. Just a thought, it shouldn't really take much effort to do and would just be nice to have IMO.
  24. Miners needed

    First, The status of the deed is irrelevant to the fact that it had me on KoS when I've never even SPOKEN to you people... ever, so obviously you had/have SOME kind of beef right... or do you just randomly KoS people for nothing then? Second, there is no way to prove your claim about Ayleska... nor do I care to one way or another... I highly doubt you'd admit to joining her insane bandwagon of rage if that were the case now would you? Third, it's quite easy to assume that you either fully intended to cut off our tunnel for your own purposes (whether it be malicious or a completely disregard for anyone else but yourselves is another matter) or you're too woefully inept/incompitent to see your current tunnel trajectory would have come out on the face of the mountain and NOT connected to GD as well as being too lazy to survey the area or contact anyone from my town to begin with (and lieing about it here to save face). So, to conclude, your opinion on the matter is duly noted and summarily dismissed, it doesn't matter to me if you like me or not, facts are facts and the ONLY way you will complete this project at this juncture is to go around the NORTH side of our deed giving it a wide berth as we have numerous existing mines up top as well as our access tunnel. That being said, as Atom and Daash have agreed upon the aforementioned plan earlier, any further discussion at this point is moot. Feel free to get the last word in, as far as I'm concerned, the day I set foot on your deed only to be KoS for nothing was the last time I took any stock or concern in what anyone that has to do with your town has to say.
