So, you suggest that they should wipe my main so I can grind it to level 35 once again? Because that's what crpg is all about?

I've never played a server where people split up as much or as often as on EU1.  No wonder range is having a field day.

Claiming that "You don't need looms to play properly" is a double edged sword. If you don't need your looms, then why should you care about a wipe taking them away?

I'm for a wipe because cRPG has been getting pretty stagnant to me and this freshens things up for me quite a bit, IMO.

Actually, i am gen 29 and level 33 and i don't have looms anymore i kinda "gave them away" and i play fine as i did back then and i don't even miss them or need them, tho archers kill me faster cause i don't have fully loomed armors anymore,

but i don't want to start grinding again to (also i don't have time to start grinding like i used to have) be one of the highest gen player and to get level 33, all this took almost 1,5 years to achieve ,

that is why i would rather quit than start to grind/play again, thinking when the next wipe will be and when all your achievements will be wiped off, it's just waste of time to play if you will start from scratch in any moment.   
(hope this makes sense)

Pretty sure people like my bro who is level 34 (I know there's a lot of other 34's, and a shit ton of 33 and 32 players), and the couple level 35's (canary/miley) would be really pissed about how much time they put in, to see it wiped.  That's really the only thing I have a problem with for the wipe. 

I'm gen 11, almost to level 31 (on my final build) have 3 fully loomed pieces of equipment, and I would like to see a wipe.  Ideally I'd like to see heirloomed items removed.  I was never a big fan of skill being based on (even partially) on who has the best pixel crack.  If we both have the same item, it should have the same stats.

But I'm guessing that's a pipe dream.

just introduce permadeath and flee option,  would make an interesting change in battle comitment.
Yes, I know from whence I came! Discontented as a flame, Upon myself I live and glow. All I grasp like lightning flashes, All I leave behind is ashes
Flame I am - that much I know!

Like I said in the other 100 threads like this, a full wipe would only make sence if retiring/heirlooming got removed + lvl hard cap.

But I believe that wipe would have opposite effect, and that people would return after the wipe and that new players would be encouraged.
No they wouldn't because what some don't seem to understand is it's not the looms that is the deciding factor in what makes a good player. Vet players will still wreck new players because they are EXPERIENCED. You could wipe everything and have us all in rags and pitchforks and vet players will still come out on top. People keep looking for excuses as to why they aren't as good as they want to be. Maybe they should just accept that they aren't the best and quit whining and blaming everything but themselves.

Why put effort into anything if it's just going to be taken away? Looms are representative of achievement. If you want this mod to be about casual players who play 2 hours on saturday since there is no longer any reason(s) to play the game with dedication then wiping everything is an excellent way to help achieve that new non dedicated playerbase.

Last time they did a loom wipe I remember them saying they will not be doing that again.

I've never whined about loomed items, and I 100% agree that it's a lot more about skill than loomed items. However, I've never been a fan of that game mechanic that rewards people for having better pixel crack than someone else.  It should be strictly on skill in game, and the character you decide to build.  Having a "better" weapon as an identical weapon, is an advantage, and it should never come down to pixel crack as far as who is the most skilled player.

I personally just don't like the idea of loomed items, nor do I like the idea of PVP MMORPGs where there's no loot drop.  It just encourages people to find and equip the best pixel crack possible, rather than having people focus on how to be the most skilled player.  It's like a crutch, and it gives an advantage to the people who play the most, the people who are naturally going to already be the most skilled because they have the most play time.
