Retiring over lvl 31

Whole retirement system is to encourage players to retire. But how about players with level 33 or more? They may simply do not make it because will lose time and gain only 1 heirloom pont. How about implementing simple system, lvl 31 -1 heirloom, lvl 32 -3 h., lvl 33 -5 and so on.

I would like XP to carry over to your heir instead. So if you were at 8.7 mil xp you get 0 carry over, but if you have 12.4 mil xp when you retire your heir starts out with 3.3 mil xp.

Actually that defeats the purpose of an "heir", never mind...

More looms - less prices

If I'm reading this right, every level over 30 you lose one of your heirlooms? or it gets a negative (MW becomes Sharp, etc ie: +3 becomes +2)

Because no. I don't like the idea of negative reinforcement to force you to retire or respec.

I really like the idea of a lvl 34 or 35 heirloom myself. Perhaps not connected to Lvl 31 heirlooms at all. Probably NO weapons. Just armor.

For example, an archer might retire at 35 for an aluminum mail shirt ( I know it didn't exist! Shut up! I could have called it Mithril!) that gives them additional protection without the weight penalty.

Primarily these items should only add hit points, not damage reducing armor. Armor would make some weapons that can hit now begin to glance on the Lvl 35 Looms and we don't want that.

This would allow people to live longer in fights, giving us more give and take than now. It wouldn't destroy current weapon balance and looms at all. But you might live through one more arrow, or pike poke in melee.

He meant retiring at level 31 gives 1 h point, at level 32 you get 2, at level 33 you get 4, etc...

Just the amount of times of exp to level 31 gained in heirloompoints.

The problem is even if you are number 1 in NA you are still only number 467 in EU or the worst in AUS(number 17)

I like this idea, it would be nice to be able to forge "Superior" items if one retires at lvl 33 or 34.

I don't see why not. it will reduce then numbers of high end level players and they have spend those times to level up to those stage. If you were level 35 you don't really want to retire as you can only get 1 heirloom point.

It should be correct if the retirement system idea is to prevent players to become super humans with lvl 35. After all with every level the temptation to click retire should be more tempting ;)

My bro is level 32 or 33 and won't retire because he hates leveling.  Even though he basically has no money he won't retire. 

I don't think you should get an extra heirloom for every 8.x million XP beyond level 31, but there should be some incentive to retiring at a higher level.

If you want incentive to retire after level 31 I would propose this:

lev 31 = 1 loom point for retiring

lev 32 = 2 loom points for retiring (technically the same amount of xp as if you were to level to 31 2x)

lev 33 = 3 loom points for retiring (etc of above)

lev 34 = Can upgrade a +3 item to +4 (Stats could obviously be more than +4, this is just for simplification sake)

lev 35 = Can upgrade a +4 item to +5

Imagine the price of a +5 item on the market lol..

My only worry about this, is that more people will be leveling the hard-cap and therefore there will be way fewer under level 31's.

Hate to say it but the whole point is that people retire at 31 and do not grind higher.
Just because people choose to do so that does not mean it will ever be rewarded.
We want to discourage this.

I think it would be retarded, as riding on x5 on lvl 32 is much easier than on lvl 1-30, if you retire like regular.

One loom point for every 8.7m experience points; no +4 or +5 items.
