Hello,

after intense discussions, thoughts and work we want to announce a few features of the comming hours/days.



Group RP-Bonus:

Over a long time discussed and even longer forgotten we have decided to implement a group-RP-bonus. Each additional group member will give you +10%RP meaning that you will be able to achieve an additional total RPbonus of +70%. So, if you decide to teamwork a target worth 1000RP that gave 125RP in a group will now be worth ~265RP.

(Eventually a few slight adjustments will follow)


Battlegrounds:

The following new RR-caps have been set.

Braemar 2L2
Wilton 3L2
Thidranki 4L2

These new upper limits have been set after detailed checks and are based upon the idea that players become able to almost reach a battlegrounds level cap before they have to leave the battleground due to their realmrank.

In the course of our battleground revamp we are going to create community polls in which you have the choice of 3zone maps per current battleground. These zonemaps will be used in the future so we suggest you to think for which zone your heart is beating for.

Braemar poll
Wilton poll
Thidranki poll


New Frontiers:

Within a short time RvR-Stablemasters will be accessible. They will speed up your travel to the battlefront, but come in with a slight perniciousness! Because the horses had a long run to the frontier and thatfor are tired they are no longer inexorable. This means that horse and rider can be attacked and that the rider will drop to the ground in case of an attack.

The stablemasters Rima Bartho, Sildan La'ith, Relana Boyd, Balliol Carrick, Frida Vindrsdottir und Ruger Ulfsson are looking forward to meet you.

Of course we have a lot of other additional things planned for the NF RvR which we are not going to tell you by now.


Have fun in game,

Your Staff

most people wait to reach the limit levelof a BG before going rvr usually, at least the ones that will reach the RP cap 4L2 seems alot... but with group bonus RP that could be OK.

let's have a look

I have exactly such bonus in mind. You would get a bonus when you kill a player of a group or if your group has less players than the enemies group. In german news post there were some arguments against it. It could lead to higher selection pressure on who to take into a group. Maybe it should be solo exclusive bonus.
It's done when it's done. Thanks for your patience.
