Fiefs will get loom points over time that can be spent to upgrade the equip you can buy in the fief.

How long is this time? And is there any way to decrease the time, i.e upgrading your "technology".

Could help with diversity in Strat, all the clans will start looming item combinations unique to their theme.

Should also help a single clan wanting more fiefs instead of just holding them and idling

Naturally, but mainly this will give some incense to new players to give Strat a try, and will make Strat more of a team effort instead of one or few sole suppliers of items.

I think this means that over time UIF will have a greater variety of +3 items than others (EU atleast)

To be fair, if the fiefs are of any use at all, it always means that the strong will only get stronger.

This game isn't about being skillful as much as its about saying things in general chat that enrage people who then go to murder you but in their rage they make dumb mistakes which gets them killed.

Can we get anymore hints so people can plan a bit?

What happens to current skill points? wiped? What will the new system hold for lvl 31+? Will they have craft penalties still?

Would appreciate knowing now cuz I'm one of those guys who's basically "trapped" as a clan crafter. Would be relieving to find out I don't have to worry about personal skill levels anymore. I am also in a position to stop retiring my main, but holding back cuz of current strat crafting system so would be grateful for clarification on that too.

So that's why we are always wearing those stupid kettle rimmed hats that don't clip properly with my beard.

Cool, we will still have everything maxed out like before. Shame that we won't have italian swords and heraldic armors this time around. On the other hand with our number of fiefs and players we will stay on the top which is neat.

Well I'll welcome the change (wont' hit me as hard as some of you), but I do like that I can craft champ coursers and mw heavy lances for like 60% of the non-heirloomed price. 

I think the new change will be much improved.  I was so worried on this gen, being it's my final build.  I just got +3 heraldic mail with surcoat and was going to retire again if I didn't get the chadztext but luckily I did twice this gen so far.  Now that it's going away, that sucks balls.

I've had all the same problems as frank, worried that I'm going to get chadztext if I go to cheap gear, so I was playing an alt and basically leeching (using the worst gear and pitchfork) until I got money for my main.  I also think it was unfair to people who were retired, they play just as much or more as other people, why wouldn't they be able to learn from all their hard work?

25 damn generation. I would just go to 16 and level up if i would know it's going to the bin. Would be lvl 34, fuck this shit :(

(on the other hand, thanks to me, my faction control so much land)
