I always hated grinding my way back up after retiring, so levels. cRPG is boring until you get to around level 25.If you always hated grinding back up why would you want to give up levels over looms? I was refering to giving up the high level characters you have already ground out over giving up all your looms/mw items
Disclaimer I am an entitled whiny cunt and I earned my shit removing my shit would lead to me and like-minded players never looking at cRPG again
I was around when cRPG was wiped I've been playing this mod since before dedicated NA servers so take your superiority complex crap out of here. I -did- earn most of my shit by you know actually playing the game.

...so you better not mess around with him or you'll get shred to pieces.
delusional old bundle of sticks that pretends no one could possibly be as old him.
Quite frankly if I lost all of my looms or someone decided to make everyone have a lvl 35 build This would cause me to never play again.I only said "give all level 35's" because it wouldn't bother me to give the same footing to others esp new players who will never close the gap, as long as I dont have to regrind it all out again. I dont really care about my loomed items, I care about the extra att/skill points.
Disclaimer I am an entitled whiny cunt and I earned my shit removing my shit would lead to me and like-minded players never looking at cRPG again lol If this is the course of action you want then, by all means, go for it. I'm just a balancer I'm quite sure I won't be missed at all.
maybe some partial wipe would be most ideal. The day the market was implemented was the day gold and looms started to not make sense. I remember when I was the only dumbass with a +3 stick and it was because people had to actually retire and most wouldn't waste looms on such a weapon.
Maybe wipe looms and give people 1 lp for each gen they have? which would practically only harm people that only earned their looms via gold. This would more than half my current loom pool I have and maybe an entire gold wipe is in question to make gold relevant again? fuck if ik. A wipe might only hurt more than you intend.
I would gladly give up every unused loompoint(14) and every mw item(49) I have to keep a level 35 char and to let every player new and old have a level 35 char.
Unless Variag suddenly appears again then yes, this is absolutely true. cRPG has been wiped 4 times. The proportion of bundle of sticks admins and devs enamoured of the results of their "hard work" (lol) completely explains why cRPG is the way it is right now, why the simple and effective cyclical wipe has been bypassed again and again for irrational tinkering with balance and items as if it could somehow deal with the underlying problem. Result, cRPG is dead and gay, good job.
I think if player base got wiped of looms and levels the idea that we should get an LP for every gen we'd previously retired would be a good idea. That way people aren't losing everything they've already ground but getting a fresh start along with, hopefully, new players that have stayed away because of how unbalanced certain high level builds have made the mod.
Maybe let people keep their titles or some shit that has zero effect on gameplay, but the appeal of a wipe is a clean slate for everyone, and we don't really get that if all the old players are rewarded with LPs for just having played lots.I made this thread not as a pro wipe crusade but more of an opinion thread. Was just curious how many were like me and would rather lose all their looms than lose their high level chars. I am still 11mill xp away from level 32 on Warclok and it still feels like slogging through molasses to get too even with the current xp gain. Probably wont even get there considering how sporadic the server population is.
Anyway, just delete all these threads because it's never going to happen. Prof seems open to the idea, but iirc James and Uthyr are very opposed. You'd have to get those two on board for it to be a remote possibility, and you'd have more luck PMing them on Discord or something to try to convince them. I mean, these threads clearly aren't going anywhere, this is the 2 billionth wipe thread raising the exact same points lmao
I'm not saying you should give up on the pro-wipe crusade, but i'm giving up boys, you're on your own !!
Idaf either way. If mod comes alive with a wipe then cool. If it dies then oof. I'd rather it be semi populated with 20 than with 0 because new people still didn't want to try.
someone better warn me before a wipe so I can retire and get my demigod title.
