Also, as I stated in another topic, I am not fond of the idea that you can simply resupply in a safe area. Having to leave to restock may in turn cause some action and fun for more players. Duel stones really shouldn't be the place where you can hang out all day until you log off. That's the type of thing that makes the shard seem dead and boring, too many people not out in the actual world. Things like that make players get used to not losing their gear, even when they lose and end up never fighting where they could actually lose their belongings.
I'm all for automated events but we can't have too many of them honestly. There needs to be times of the day where you players can entertain yourselves. As it stands now we probably have more events then any shard in existence, sometimes as many as 15 a day. It wouldn't hurt to have some mini monster bash hit ocllo or the bridge every few days but if you guys can't handle the tomb of kings Eru made, I don't see that going over well either.
Running a DM every 6 hours automatically would be fine I suppose. I used to have a spawner that did this awhile back and it could be brought back.
Seriously though I don't like that players are so dependent on us for fun... It's almost as if its a kick to the ass because it makes it seem like the shard sucks unless staff is there holding your hand while you play.
Shade, I completely get what your saying and you have good reason to think this but, you also have to understand that these are ideas coming from me. I HATE carebear server. The thought of ganking someone and taking all of their gear makes me wet :icon_twisted: LOL! Seriously though, Its just the Reg stones because its a neccesity. When I get into a duel with someone that can heal as well as I can... that duel can literally last HOURS sometimes and when someone dies because of lack of regs, its really not seen as a win... This is something that has always been seen as a piss-off. Even when 2 people duel and 1 runs out of supplies, the duel usually stops so the players can supply eachother mid-duel but, you have to understand that its JUST regs... no one wants to gank for regs... we gank for scrolls, pots, itwems but regs are the standard... everyone has regs.... they SHOULD be easy accessible because they are the MAIN neccessity. ITs really just something I believe in and conserving your items in a duel is NOT the way to duel because there are people whom have COMPLETELY different styles than others and if you start promoting item conservation then every9one will become defensive PVPers and dueling will not ever be the same.
As for the events, Im sure you guys host TONS of events bro BUT as I was just saying, the time that I logg on for those 7 hours, there are HARDLY EVER events and I know this because Im always on at the same times. I see you online sometimes and Raigan.. thats it. But, you guys are usually on earlier, its rare i see Staff online when im on. There are MANY timezones on the shard and this was a problem back when this server was still in the Beta. I want to see this shard succeed so im just giving you my opinion as a players point of view, I wanna see the French players come back because they used to gank and that gives A LOT of activity... so, Im just giving you my opinion.
