So for the past couple of days i've been trying to think of why there is such a low player base.

I think that AutoSupply duels could kinda of be the reason why and read this whole thing through before you respond.

I personally believe that AutoSupply kills the IN-X Economy.

#1- People don't need to use ANY of their supplies in duels anymore (in events), hence ALL pvpers don't need to stock up on supplies/macro tons of skills.

#2- No supplies means less ganking in Occlo/Brit Bridge.

#3- So why would we play on a shard that we have all these things for and never use them?

I do realize that AutoSupply does in fact give a common dueling ground.

However if I look back to old shards (mainly XUO) people rarley did AutoSupply Events and because of that you always had people hunting for better weps, macroing to gm skills so they can then make supplies aka scrolls/pots/armor

Maybe this was changed in IN-X as an incentive for people to come and duel here without having to do all that stuff 1st (which might I add probably has to do with the way skill gain is done here as it takes FOREVER to gm some skills), but honestly I don't think IN-X can grow with AutoSupply Events always happening.

I mean what's the incentive for pvpers? Show off that cool bard you have but never use it?


This might have to tie into with skill gain on IN-X, as honestly it does take forever to gm some skills. Rabbi told me he took 1 month CONSTANT mining and blacksmithing (with skill stone I believe).....1 month 12 hrs a day to just gm those skills. I'm not saying it should be a week but what about ppl that don't play 12 hrs a day? We're going to wait what a year to gm a skill?

Just wanted opinions and see if other people were thinking the same.


P.S: Not sure if this is in the right section
