Something old & something new...

[Lebeau]

Ok, got 2 basic questions. Both need asking...

1) (old) This one I've asked before but have not yet recieved a full & accurate reply to it. Are relic blocks being turned off permanently in the 1.10.8 update or not? If not, then exactly WHEN are they finally going to be turned off?

2) (new) A NGD rep stated that GameSamba's long standing practice of having a weekly xp server boost would continue. I have only seen one so far, but I'm not ingame 24/7 tho. Would NGD kindly please create a weekly-updated event-thread (like GS had) that POSTS this information here each week aforetime? Can it please include the exact time, duration & % of the boost that will run?

This would be very helpful & useful to know. I luckily make my own schedule, but I still have constaints & limits on my available time, thus I must prioritize. I just can't effectively do that & still play CoR without knowing this information.

Please enlighten us all & share it ... before I 'go bananas'....

Right now, Amun has a new version with changes to Invasions. Relic Blocks have been removed completely and there are new conditions to obtain gems and relics.

That's from the Anniversary event thread by Adrián. There he stated what they were working on at the moment, which turned out to be this next update (going live tomorrow at 7PM GMT (http://www.championsofregnum.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1801603&postcount=47)). Therefore, relic blocks will go away.

As for your second question, it's been said before that the new helpers will be promoted to GM's with time (and hard work :p), and then they'll be able to activate or deactivate events of all kind at will.

Hope this helps! :D

Really wish it was all just that simple, but thoroughly peruse this thread again ( http://www.championsofregnum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=102968 ) & tell me exactly where it says relic blocks will be removed in version 1.10.8. Sadly, it doesn't. Also, notice I asked twice in this thread if the locks were or were not going away in THIS update & NGD/Adrian did NOT give any answer at all, oh, but still closed this thread anyway (& that is why I started THIS follow-up thread; I civilly asked a reasonable question & I think the question rightly deserves an equally civil answer....).

Thus however, it is definitely NOT a safe assumption that relic locks are going away anytime soon; it's all just words 'til NGD firmly states it's intentions & sets an actual date. Not all that was listed in the Anniversary Thread & Roadmap is in this v.1.10.8, so I therefore have to believe we are gonna' be fucking stuck with these unwanted blocks at least until the next update (whenever that is). Years ago, community overwhelmingly wanted WM offensive banners gone too, but that was like pulling all 32 teeth also, ffs & it took absolutely one hell of alot longer than it had to or really should have....

wait for the update and you will know :tsk_tsk:Lookin' back ... lookin' forward ... the knowin' ... well, that's kinda' my worry atm ... can u blame me?

:mf_hide:

EDIT: ok, appears the relic locks are off on haven at least (TY GOD!) ... uh, still not at all sure why I could not get a simple answer to the perfectly reasonable question I had actually asked 4 fucking times ... that usually means those who would answer really don't want to do so ... meaning they don't think you'll like what they have to say in answer, so they just don't give one ... idk ... w/e.

....one down ... one to go....
