One thing that might help is, for each Outpost that protects another Outpost (rather than an Obelisk proper), the costs start to rise - and now I am out because math (okay, I could probably do THIS one, but I don't want to >.>), but I do think…

Obelisk fights are amazing. Juran is on point with his description of how AM was able to lock the one that currently matters (Truesight) so hard. That said, overlapping outposts (outposts protecting other outposts) might be problematic period. Yo…

That's bullshit (to Juran's post). Here's why it's bullshit. Some people are going to win most of the time, possibly almost all of the time. If it's a guy like Khizan and Iluv got better than him, he's going to bring friends. In short, it's ver…

To clarify, Juran, you mean "XP loss", not "PK XP loss" (which already exists), correct?
Because that is an absolutely horrible idea and I really, really hope it does not happen. It will split the population even more rigidly into "PK-er… -
On an individual level you often have a really great level of personal mobility and open doors. You can probably get a RC seat at some point if you really want it, for sure. I think the big downsides are sort of at the "macro" level, for lack of a…

That's fairly true? I think it's MOST true for people who are genuinely top tier, but anyone who's willing to fight and isn't totally terrible can benefit - to a point.
The huge problem is that PK-ers (and by that I mean people who ran… -
That's true (1/11), but I think it's probably because we don't keep bashing for more hp after 100 (thank GOD).

Sorry, but that little comment from Jeremy is absolutely packed with meaning, and really changes the entire conversation

You're not going to issue a smart griefer out of the game, ever. Ahkan lasted well over a RL decade and was leading multiple orgs when he left. The ONLY reason he finally got shrubbed permanently was because he actually dragged admin into his grie…

(Quote) This is valid - that said, that kind of retribution through raiding is only ever truly an option for an org that is by FAR stronger than all of the other ones in the first place. That doesn't mean they shouldn't get to do it, and a new ra…

Consequences in this context is usually a word that gets bandied about a lot by well, guys like Juran and Khizan, really. And what it usually means is "let me keep shoving these nerds in their lockers every day because it's fun for me".
I wondered if we might get sort of where we are right now - if we managed to get past the "let's see if we can just slyly neuter this before it even gets off the ground" portion of the discussion (yay, I believe we did). Now, we're sort of wading i…It's more about what isn't happening (like any healing, at all). Some of us rust faster than others...
EDIT: I did chop out some spam, though - but tldr healing off, fairly positive.(Quote) tbh I am super surprised to see people (especially anyone more PK-oriented) feel this way, much less would ever admit it publicly. Lots of people (especially PK-ers) seem to go absolutely out of their way to "play it cool" from everything…Well. I did figure out why it worked just that once... I am not so concerned about it now >.> However, here is the log
<…Right, I have a transfix (I will get there), but Math used something against me the other day, at the beginning of a fight, which meant I was extra screwed, but I am not sure what it was (or why I haven't seen it again). It was def a transfix.What's the thing where they can transfix you almost immediately (and why don't they use it more often)? I can dig up the log, but it was almost instantaneous. That said, I've only seen it once so far, which is odd.I am in the "just save obelisks for another day" or even "just ditch obelisks entirely" camp (both mentioned in Jeremy's OP as things they are considering). Even if you just keep them as objectives and ditch the rest of the system, I think they're …Hey admin - the last few posts are pretty harmless, and I'd much rather have people feel like they can discuss things. So, this is one of those golden opportunities to rein in snide jerkitude, and I don't exactly see you jumping on it (like, just …Yeah, MKO was of course TINY, and had some of the most rabidly anti-conflict/anti-PK people I have ever seen - alongside some of the most rabidly hard core PK-er types I have ever seen (the sort of guys I can almost imagine playing perma-death MUDs)…MKO allowed raiding every 24 hours though - the only consequences to horking up the raid was pretty much that, well, you died (possibly a lot, to guards), and you couldn't try again for at least 24 hours. I don't think the other games have even a 2…Haha, you will fit right in Kinsarmar. I haven't seen her as much lately, but see if you can catch up with Katinel.What's your vision?
Also, you are basically semi-immortal (less mortal than most deities in IRE if we're being honest, not just Imperian, where we don't have them). Someone can chop off all your limbs and rip your guts out in front of yo…The city energy aspect of obelisks intentionally enforces fairly long cooldowns (several days minimum, I think?) between EACH attack. So "long cooldowns" is really, really baked into the whole thinking behind city energy storage/usage, and admin se…I got so ninja'd.I am basically an amateur champion Test Dummy, so really just about anytime you want, we can meet and you can hit me. I don't think I'd stand around for hours getting beat on just now (because I do normally give my attention to the attacker in case…I have like zero 1 v. 1 game, but I will occasionally bite the bullet... Pretty much everything I do or think about is in service of team fights though, just because team fighting is so much easier than 1 v. 1.Oh I think it can be a problem. It's just not a problem for most of the people in this thread. I'm also not sure there's a hell of a lot that can be done about it, but there are some big big downsides to automation run amok - for a very large grou…I am pretty sure it's your e-mail address. Every once in awhile there is a hiccup, but it's extremely rare. But, for example, I have a different default avatar on Aetolia (but most people do not).
