Nice site. Could you change "of Wessex" to just "Wessex" please.

Suggestions Corner / Re: Add exp gain on the duel server

« on: May 15, 2011, 08:14:22 pm »

For a constant gain, i'll probably just say no. Why would you get xp for just standing still waiting to find another duellist ? And since there's never any new round, you get the max ticks. In 10min and 10sec, you get 10 ticks, whereas in battles, if a round ends in 3min and 58sec, you only get 3ticks. So basically 7-8 ticks in 10min and 10sec.

Why should you get exp while running to a fight in siege/battle? Or when waiting in a defensive position for the enemy to come? Or while dead in a battle waiting for the round to end? You learn a lot more in terms of skill with your time spent on the duel server as opposed to a siege/battle one so gaining exp makes perfect sense. With regards to the exp on average you get a 1.9 something multiplier on the other servers, if the duel server had a constant 1 then I can't see it exceeding this even with the tick advantage.

Thirdly, don't make every server a grind server.

Because leveling is a big part in why people play cRPG, why should one fun game mode be left out?

Finally, it will be a leecher server if such an option was implemented, people going afk after 1 duel, coming back in 2min, then duelling once, etc...

You could tweak this by restricting exp to people who duel more then once per 2 mins, like once every 30 secs or minute. There may be other things you can test like needing to duel different people.

I don't think it should be per kill/loss since the people who need to duel the most are the newbies and they will have to practice for a long time before they have a chance of beating the vets. If they get crappy exp in the mean time then they will just go to the other servers which would be counterproductive. Also if it is on win/loss there are loads of ways to exploit it, not to mention highly skilled people having a hard time finding someone to duel them, that implementation would be much harder.

Adding exp gain on the duel server would be a great way to increase the fun of the game and also help newbies out who need to duel a lot. I think a flat multiplier for everyone would be best as this would remove exploits and also helps the new players in the same way that a newbie can still get a good multiplier on a battle/siege server. Setting the multiplier to a bit less then the average you get on the other servers would probably be good, like 1.7 since the average is 1.9 or so, but even 1 would be fine I think.

Can you have more then one of the same item? For instance if you buy an heirloomed Morningstar but you already have a normal Morningstar would you have both or would one overwrite the other?

BTW regarding the mercenaries mod, they actually pay a bit of gold per kill, as well as gold for victory. Would be nice to see it in cRPG too.

The trouble is you wouldn't get people doing the unglamorous jobs where you get less, or even no, kills if you add a reward for killing people.

It's a good way for a skeptical person to try cRPG to see if they like it, if they do then they can kill the char and start a proper one.

Suggestions Corner / Add a new Heraldic armour between Transitional and Mail

« on: May 12, 2011, 12:38:20 pm »

I would really like to wear heavier armour then the Heraldic Mail but I just can't afford the upkeep on the Transitional set. It would be awesome if a new set, for instance Heraldic Scale with Surcoat, could be added at roughly 13k gold price.

I think all Heraldic armour does, I know for sure that Heraldic Transitional Armour, Heraldic Mail with Tabard and Heraldic Mail with Surcoat show it. For shields the ones that are dirty white, like the board shield and kite shield, display your heraldry too.

I've settled on the Morningstar. It's a nice weapon for up close and personal work and, most importantly, it's got personality!

I'm new and have no problem with gear. I use a decent set worth about 20k and make plenty of money with it. Using that money I can go with my best gear whenever I want to. What is the point of having non uber gear if you could wear the best all the time?
