Yeah that's what I was just talking about. When people have sword (or during event all together) activate double regen. Makes self pinning harder.
Yeah I don't really see a downside. Would provide more action as well for players, making the event more fun. Maybe with this feature they could decrease the shards lost per hit to offset the increase in troop levels. But this would have to be weighed against the gains per hit so 2 of the top people couldn't just XTAL on each other and gain shards.
Are people not open for steals 5 minutes after entering pin anyway? Changing regens with the sword takes away basically the only benefit hansels actually had during the event
Hansel builds had a few distinct advantages, 1) Without sword they can steal, take shards, target a sword, without repercussions 2) Hansel MECHANICS, bank your gold and atk builds can't hit you. 3) Your troops are about EQUIVALENT to atk builds (who don't have adt) from the pin. There are plenty of Atk builds you could atk successfully. 4) With sufficient sdt and ally's properly hidden, you could sleep.........BEST BENEFIT
Tried that on last night, got scout bombed then someone tried to run a bar of stls on me, 2 stls got through taking 955 shards total, just 2 stls lol.
PVP reward suggestion. The pvp event was great but has a few flaws. What I would like to offer forth is that 1 items rewarded are mith not shards. They drop rate will have to be lower but this will enable pvp players to have an incentive to hit more people to choose the equipment they earn as a reward. ( from alchemist ) 2 obviously keep it so mith can not be stolen of lost. This also gets rid of losing all you gain plus farming a specific lb player to gain a level with two hits. 3 this makes the event more action based no matter whether osw or farming or battle list. All can participate and it won't be just a free for all for bigger kingdoms at the expense of the small. It also stops bad eggs trying to ruin the ability to pvp for others. 4 an opt in for pvp that highlights your name. You only pay/ earn mith whilst the spell is active. No one is free from hits, but it will make it easier to find people with a coloured name on battle list, wc or rival clan.
I feel you there vamp. But maybe with 7m sdt you could have stopped the steals... Maybe not. Still you only took 2 successful steals all night, for the most part that's good. I was right on board with you. Losing a ton per hit.
Oh i wasnt complaining, just stating that sleep was not a total option as a hansel/ps lol but yeah, next time i might do some lowland conversions when its nap time hahaha
Nothing was worse than getting caught xtalling though Would lose so many shards. And I agree sleep isn't very viable for anyone who was going for top 10. But yeah like you said gives you a small period to nap.
i didn't mind the loss of shards. what i did mind was that people who were "naturally" awake the 12 hours before the end of the event had a huge advantage over the people that slept those hours. from day 2 i realized that the event was only good for farming mith until the last day. i had planned on pulling an all nighter so that i could get into the middle tiers, but by the time the final day came around i was burnt out and couldn't muster the effort. so i slept in and ended up with only a few hours to gather shards. so my suggestion would be to seperate this into two different events. one where you gain mith from pvp; this one could last any length of time. and a second shard type event; however, the shard event should be MUCH shorter. 24-48hours tops.
Yeah those "naturally" awake people. There was this SH I hit twice and was dtw for about every time I try to hit him again. Continuously dtw for the last 3days :lol: No way someone didn't sleep for 3days. I even tried to change my sleep schedule just to try to catch him out of dtw when sleeping but failed to do so
I'm sure you say on them EVERY moment of those 3 DAYS and therefore your claim is justified. /end sarcasm You probably tried to hit him a dozen times :lol:
I'd like to see the shard payout have a max and min similar to gold when you hit someone, not based on how many shards they have.
I was hitting 2k a day but that's because I spent the whole day in dtw with a sword while farming hansels. This event favoured the ps and statsless accounts the most, but all in good fun. The shard loss was ok as you lost in the region of 5% if you notice you'll be losing about 40 shards every few it's. It's not the shard rate that's terrible it's the fact that once you're found to be a good paying player everyone jumps on your ass. So here's the thing about your none existent alt farming problem solution, if you're meant to get shards by having shards how the hell are you meant to get any in the first place? Because if I'm not mistaken no one had more than 50 shards and that's the login extra. Alt farming would of been rare and hardly used since the LB players where ones who was chasing the high paying accounts, I doubt that anyone has time to keep 2 accounts dtw 24/7 except a select few. Also as I keep saying, you get too many too quickly you become the chew toy.
