As stated before I am not interested in noobs that attack and this is in regards to inner realm only. We all know in the warzone they are on their own if not in a group. I am only trying to make suggestions against camping noobs in order to increase the player base rather than add one more point against what we are already dealing with, I have seen in realm chats ppl complaining about how much it sucks to get to lvl 10 and then 20 and so on. Adding on to that inner realm noob camping would be three strikes for some of these players that are powerless to stop it unless they quit anyways.

Also instant lvl 50s wouldnt work because thats instant promotion without merit. We do not need a lot of ppl who dont know what they can do running around and getting killed because they dont know the merits and disadvantages of their character - quitting because they are frustrated in only one game.

The keyword I am looking for is retention, as players how do we best solve the retention problem that this game has and more specifically in regards to the invasion aspect. I am saying without NGD intervention their are some things we can do at our level.

You certainly won't retain lower level players that want to be able to play in the war zone (the main draw of the game at this point).

Guild Wars solved this problem and it works well.
Its called instant high level.

Sure you might not be able to instantly get the best gear or the best weapon. But you will have access to the skills (which there are so few in this game), hit points, and etc that are necessary to compete with other level 50s.

Also, just because your a level 50 doesn't automatically mean you know how to use your character especially if you haven't ever done PvP before. So the argument that a bunch of "noobs" running around at lvl 50 will be chaos is not relavent.

So if you don't like the concept (which works) of instant level 50's, then what alternative can you come up with that is proven to work?

Look man, when I camp, I camp because I want to. It has long surpassed my initial payback motive. Like I have been said so many times when I complained about camping in my noob levels, I will repeat this one to you: if you can't stand the heat get the fuck out from the kitchen.

And just for the record (yes, I will justify myself on this one because you called me out for no obvious reason), maybe 5-10% of my wz/rp time goes to camping.

EDIT: On topic, NGD mustn't punish players who waste noobs in inner realm. People have put money, time & nerves in their characters and in invading other realm, so therefore should have complete freedom on doing whatever they like. If you want to prevent camping noob towns I suggest NGD puts a safe zone on all noob towns (like it is on sacred island).

p.s. as noob towns I would only consider Fisgael & Korsum (being a syrtian i barely know other realms' towns, but you get my point)

Well I appreciate that you finally gave a recommendation. Also you got called out for an obvious reason because you are a camper defending other campers, I dont know how more obvious that could have been made. Yes players have put time, sweat (more like lazy armpit sweat) and money into their characters - but this is also free to play so if you put money into that is on you.

If you guys want to camp I have no problem with it in the warzone if it meant ppl leaving my noobs alone. With a low populated realm with a high attrition rate this game loses interest vary fast for noobs that get invaded every night. If it continues at this rate it might as well be just an Ignis vs Syrtis campaign.

But so far On the Orignal Topic no one else has brought forth any suggestions in regards to fixing the time zone and realm imbalances.

Call me whatever you want, I actually don't mind anymore. But hey, snow was falling in Australia last year, and I camped few times. Everything is possible

Back on topic, this already is Ignis vs Syrtis campaign for last month or so in case you didn't notice. You guys just aren't enough in numbers to do anything then eventually defend the gate if you get lucky enough. As fore time zone imbalances, sheesh, that one really requires brainstorming. How about some actual game promoting work being done on ngd's part?

As for realm imbalance project, this isn't going well. Ignis already has 45% rlm xp bonus for few more days, now that's like a perma booster. I am not saying that it isn't deserved, they got that bonus fair and square by invading realms but this will soon lead to even more imbalance. I don't think Syrtis will be affected as much as Alsius because all kids like to be cool and play elves 'cause Legolas is the cutest elf in LotR, but I can't imagine a kid wanting to be a goat. So maybe new & more interesting race to play for Alsius would help.

I can't imagine a kid wanting to be a goat.

Rofl Thats So True

Syrtis You Can Be a Elf
Ignis Some Angry Indian
Alsuis Midgits And Goats

Maybe Thats Why You Guys Suck

Maybe A Cool Character Would Be A Midgit-Goat
