I'll repeat ^^

If you take away the BGs here on uthgard you might as well go to a I50 server.

Why?

It takes 15 PLAYED days to get to lv 50! Before you can realy enjoy RvR.

People with Lifes that easly takes them 3-5 Months before they see a 50.
-------------------

All you realy need to do is take away one BG, Rasie the Xp cap Higher, and give more reasons to RvR in Argamon.

------------------

If you wana Kill Uthgard killing bgs would be a good start, we get 300 people on during busy periods... 30 Might be in argamon at that time. wheres the rest? Most are XPing,Crafting,and having some fun in BGs.

due to our XP rate any new people that comes here either Leave at 40, Or your going to need to wait for them for a good 3 months.

------------------

Dont kill BGs, we just need to have a good idea to encourage people to head to Argamon,


Nayru Helped one day and it got real RvRvR going for a time ^^ with out kicking people out of BGs.

erasing BGs only would meant that those who enjoy that way of playing will leave the server!!

to bring ppl to agramon just need to think how to make that zome more diserable. (i like Salidor's ideas)

remember not everyone is here for the same reason, and those who enjoy BGs fighting deserve to have fun as any of those who enjoy agramon

Leave the Bg's as they are, just raise exp gain on them. Battle grounds are good way to gain basic skills for lvl 50 rvr. END

I just started playing here and most of what is being said about exp seems pretty right.

I've had one 50 back in the day when the servers were crowded and all quests were implemented; when the game still feeled fresh. You just can't expect any real rvr with the amount of players on here and the grind it takes to be competitive. Just do a /who 40 50 and see for yourself.

Uthgard has about 1300 Chars that are lvl 50! (ask Herald)
So it has enough potential for "any real rvr".
At least, boosting the xp gain will not lead to boosted RvR.
Maybe then one Month later there would be 1320 Chars that are lvl 50...

Well, i started playing here, it is really nice i like the server, but what makes me sad is that there are all NF zones for rvr....i mean, it's a classic server and maybe it would be much better if old emain would exist ;D maybe i'm the only one who thinks so but the old rvr zones was much better and friendly in the eyes and the exp for solo ppl who don't lvl with friends or group is really a bit low, well i'm okay with that i play with my husband but for solo ppl suxx really^^

just my 2 cent's hehe

you got your old crowed and your new ones. Most of our new ones leave just becuase of XP.

Im one of the GMs of Mystical Knights i watched as our guild grew to 225 alts played. had almsot 40 members and this was 5 months ago.
we kepted growing for a good 2 months then Xp changes, Loot changes. and then i watched as my guild slowly died.
Now we have 135 alts 15 average players. reason why they left? all of them had the same reason.

MK has a rule to drop members after they havent played for 60days. it better shows how active our guild is.
-----

I know its a Free shard, and i agree about 90% that our Uthgard Gms are doing a great job, and i see there Hard work in making uthgard a better place.

And yes if there was a small XP boost It would encouage our (NEW) ones to stay.

since ive started playing live again i dont find much time comming here.. however i find it rather impossible for me to get 50 on my nightshade.. atm just hoping for lvl 40 some day so i can go rvr in wilton once in a while when live servers are down or rvr sucks

Wenn über Monate oder sogar Jahre das High -lvl RvR stagniert, fehlt es an der eigentlichen Motivation. Ich denke hier sollte man die Faktoren zu erkennen versuchen die, die Menge dazu bewegen würde RvR zu betreiben.

Etwas muss her das die Leute ins RvR treibt. Was genau weis ich auch nicht aber vieleicht kann man ja mal Ideen sammeln aus der Community.


Einige Ideen, Ansätze:

-Spielziel: Relicte vieleicht? Mehr Bonus fürs eigene Reich durch Keep-einnahmen? Wachen oder Lords droppen Items? Keep/Relict-Eroberungs-Belohnung (was auch immer, "Respec-Steine" wären da sicherlich nen anreiz)? Keep-defend Belohnung?

-RvR Missionen sind schon eigentlich schon ein guter Ansatz auf m Live gewesen.

-Durch Titel oder KP (Bountypoints) Freischaltbare-Gebiete?

-Stosszeiten-Event---> Mehr RP/KP/EXP/Gold?

-Vorbereitetes RvR durch GM's geleitet mit Punktewertung? (Keep 3 punkte, Turm 1 Punkt etc. pp)

Mehr fällt mir nich ein.

i think there is one big problem that hinders 50 rvr and that should be changed...

its the broadchat level restriction....cause there is no good information flow bout rvr situation...

its often the same:
you go agramon look for enemies, if there are none or you killed em sometimes and they log out, you begin to raid. after raiding and no enemies popped up ypu log on a low level twink to exp or have fun in some bg.
soon some enemies roam agramon raid there and you wont notice that, cause you cant read he broad messages of higher level players. claiming guilds can spam as often as they like that their keep is under attack, most of possible defenders cant read that, cause they are on low toons....

same problem generally when you try to build a grp for agra, if you try to find ppl via BC its absolutely senseless, cause most possible players cant read your message, even though they may like to rvr with you

mots of the time if you like to setup a grp you have to organize all your ppl via IRC/ICQ or have to know all their toons names and that really sux.

so why not make the broadchat readable for all levels with a filter everyone can set for himself if he gets annoyed by spam ? so rvr organization would be very very much easier and agramon population will prosper

I agree with luecke, it really sucks when there is not enough people in agramon and it's useless to ask in broad cause everyone is in BGs or leveling. Removing this restriction would be a good idea, anyway, if there's spam you can still disable it ...

i agree too . smthg must be done

The broadlevel destriction is really a good idea. I only hear from INC in Agramon via TS or via Ally/Guildchat - but thats only because we are the most active ones in Agramon RvR.

An XP Boost could also be good. I'm not talking about tooooo much, but a bit wouldn't be that bad and Uthgard would still be no I50 then.

For Example a 50% Xp Bonus for Agramon and decent Levelspots there... -> more levler = more solos, small groups... you will always find something.
You could maybe put smth. in that you cannot die of xp death if you are once hit by a enemy (= no xp death if you level and die from a mob because of Inc)
That may encourage the level to stay even if inc is there.

The 50s broad chat is readable by 45-49 Thidranki players too. Since Thidranki has most low bg traffic of all bg's it should be no problem IF they are twinks.

and what's up if the twinks are leveling in DF or any other place? or rvring in breamar...? why couldn't we get 2 broad chat? one with 5level difference to find group and one all over the realm to reach twinks?

or only one all over the realm
