I assume this is cumulative with the existing bonuses in the frontiers...

So leveling near a keep, owned by your guild, during the event will result in a 40% bonus to exp?

Yes, these are two different bonuses that stack up. Its a) an area xp bonus and b) outpost/rvr xp bonus.

Not cool. Only causing more jabroni's to reroll and lvl more alts which yeah improves 50 rvr.... In my experience if you can't stomach the level you wont stomach the rest of the game.

I'm mostly mad because this doesn't directly benefit me. /imselfish

I like the Idea of more xp, becouse we are all here for the REAL DAoC, and thats RvR.

I hate Xping as hell, and in melee i hate it WAY more than as caster...

But the REAL GOOD DEAL is to offer XP Bonus on Easter Holidays where i should offer my time for the Family and where the Kids going later to Bed.

Thx iam Adult and Father and i hate xping just wanna go into RvR..and now you offering XP Bonus at the time where Parents got less !!!

You do a hard and good job with that Uth 2.0, honored for that.. but offering Xp Bonus at this time.. is just a punch in the face for

players who are lagging behind , and most of them are Parents i guess.

Realm point bonus events are highly unlikely to be seen on Uthgard, it was a huge mistake to introduce them to the live servers.


That's your opinion. I had fun.. especially the Doppleganger event, good times. Thanks for this particular event by the way :D

Please. People called this in the beta. They were always gonna flinch on that "no custom changes" stuff just as soon as the server started to lose people at a reasonable clip.


Always.

We said it then, and we were screamed at by the loyalist on this very forum but here we are, custom xp changes ahoy under the banner of "Events" which is I guess supposed to mean it doesn't really count right? lol.

Perfect timing - nobody is busy during easter. Increase the realm switch timer to 7-8,5 years. Make people pay gold in rvr instead of rewarding them for kills. Uthgard 1 > Uthgard 2. Make the "livelike" joke a bit more obvious please!

To compensate all the hate up there:

Heres a little <3 for all the hard work. Well done - even tho most of the decisions were crap. :p


much love <- :twisted:

I basically decided to just treat this as a beta server and im playing it now the same way i played the server when it was officially a beta server.

Players can greatly contribute to a server if you let them.

Uthgard, still the best server. Thanks, Devs.

THANK YOU for saying this. After getting rr11l4 on classic servers and then being merged into the Ywain cluster, RP gain became trivial, especially with RP events such as the DF event that had RP quests. I went from 11l4 to 11l6 in such a short amount of time that i actually was quite annoyed.

Keeping RP gain a consistent is important because of the COMPETITIVE nature of RPs and RP gain.

Gving XP bonuses on the other hand is great because no one is competing to get lvl 50, it is just a necessary evil that is placed in front of being able to go RVR and start the real game :)

Yea. Gaining realm points from anything else then killing another player is wrong. Except for ress and heal rps =)

Great way to get players to endgame sooner and I feel XP events do bring out and increase the population at least during them. I do agree that RP events are unwise and any BG type events will crash the zone, so lets hope SH can handle it. I would however love to see Uthalis and reskins/glowy effects return, I mean it's just cosmetic. :D
