Really, there is massive action in OF as it is currently implemented.
I really don't care that much about BP bonusses in OG / HW, as this aims mainly to the solo / small group people.
Though I don't think it is neccessary, they will go there, when they don't find satisfying fights in Emain.

But horse routes will affect everyones RvR experience and this will just reduce the relevant RvR zones.

I presume horses and port timer reduction got declined and BP bonus got accepted?

2 points with 3 responses is kind of confusing ;)

BP bonus was not yet discussed. Wait for decision.

I edited my post above. The whole proposal (horse routes and timer reducing) was rejected by 2 staff members. Maybe wait for tomorrow.

I cant see what harm it will do this, besides stopping players to wait for someone who forgot the necklace or didnt make it in time.

Less waittime for the win. More rvr is more fun. More wait is more /quit.

Ah yes forgot that point. I proposed a second chance port after 20sec. 30sec is too much for me :) As someone posted this was changed by Mythic around 1.6x


if you add that also do following:

the master visur (dont know other realms name for that NPC) should never leave the porter..only his helper may go upstairs.
why?
the master visur has to port the ppl into housing, city, house, guildhouse buy request WITHOUT the waiting for his helper (like the normal channelers do).

the visur only need his helper around him to port into OF and BG.

would be also livelike!!

WHEN will they go there? WHEN?
I play during primetime and I have a separate chat window just for kill messages. During the whole evening I see one (1) or no killspam at all from any zone other than Emain (or Hib frontier zones in general)

I agree with the poster 100%.

I seem to remember there being 2 merchant keep quests in OF 1 at lvl 36 and the other at 42. After helping your realm take a merchant keep you got credit for the quest. Next time you visited your trainer you got a free lvl. Its been years since I completed the quests and really the only thing I know is the lvls I did them at and the reward. It seems to me I always helped with Dun Crauchon. (not all the keeps were merchant keeps) There were all tools in the keeps you could actually craft in them. This and the misplaced mobs is all I see thats different from the real OF.

I also used to do most of my xping in OF and I remember some really nice spots. The spawn rate could keep upto 4 or 5 players atm here a solo has to move along because spawn rate is so slow. I went to look for some of the spawns and in a few cases there was not even 1 mob.

anyway enough of this bable

Maybe this is exactly the problem, that only very few people have this 1vs1-only-and-nothing-else attitude.
But those are screaming the loudest here in forums to change the RvR experience (horse routes) of the majority, that is absolutely happy with OF.

Ofc, those without reasons for complaint will never post, if OF would have been a solo fest and a pin in the but for fg, then fg's would have gotten the strongest voice. Plz see things in perspective.

Furthermore, timer reduction is good for all, fg's can slaughter each other faster as well then.

Yes and we all have seen in games like Warhammer how good nearly-instant-respawn worked. You just never feel you have beaten an enemy, when he appears again after short time.

Downtime in OF is used as a balacing element and not to punish people.
OF does not mean that only the maps have changed.
