Go back to the retire once a week?

[epoch]

Who other than I would think that going back to the retiring 1 time a week would be the best thing...

chadz made it so you have to be a no lifer to retire a bunch, lets just c if every one would rather just have it be fair for everyone.

Are you kidding? It'll still be the no lifers getting ahead, because they're the only ones who could be bothered to retire on a weekly basis. They'd just be doing it a lot faster.

Most no lifers retire faster than a week..... How hard would it be to log on 1 time a week to retire if you didnt have time to play.....


Unless you're the most lazyass inthe world

It takes a little over 70 hours of playing on average with a base Gen1 character to retire...

Other MMOs demands THOUSANDS of hours for end game material.

I have zero sympathy, as this is the fastest mmo I have ever played in my entire life.

didnt realize this was an mmo

didnt realize this was an mmo

You play with peeps, you play against peeps, you collect gold and xp, you grind for uber heirloom items, you post on a community forum about the game and each other, there are a shit ton of servers, there are player found guilds/factions, and we fight for land and crap on strategus. There are also thousands of unique cd keys playing, every now and then there is a patch, sometimes new content...

Sounds like an MMO to me.

It lacks the most basic part of an mmo and part of the name... the massive part

All of the servers combined do support "hundreds to thousands" at once. We even can do two hundred in the same server at once if needed. Strategus has thousands of little buggers running around on it at the same time too...

Either way, fits it.

Retiring doesn't help that much.  You can be a perfectly effective and successful level 28 if you have skill and a good build.  You'll be able to compete against level 30-35 players with looms - sure you'll be at a disadvantage but nothing ample skill can't surpass.

Compared to the vast ocean of grind in MMOs out there you're barely dipping your feet in the kiddie pool in c-RPG.

So true.



Why shouldn't people who play the game more benefit more from it?
I don't see why it would be unfair tbh.

Also:
There is already a generation XP bonus limit set at generation 15 (or 16).
You can only equip 9 items at a time.
You can't trade with alternative characters.

However, what will happen in time is that heirloomed items will drop in price as more and more people have more heirloomed items than slots to equip.
At some point everypone will run around with 9 slots of +3 heirloomed items.

A limit like the one suggested would make it take longer before we reach that point though.

I agree, I did it in 6 days.

Seems that makes me nolifer 

[epoch]

Game was way better old retiring system

[ThePoopy]

Suggeston: remove heirlooms totally, it only brings unbalance and unfair advantage to "no lifers"

[Leshma]

So does leveling ;)

[Malaclypse]

You can't take heirlooms with you into strat, who gives a crap. You are of more use if you never retire.
