    My level 83 barb got 83 tokens on Friday with 3k contribution in the team that tied for 3rd place.

    The same barb today (Sunday) got 61 tokens for 5k contribution in the team that got last place.

    I made 80+ mil in 4 hours of fun on my noobish barb. I am very happy

    I was very happy. My level 61 wiz managed to actually kill two people b:pleased Which consider the level of most people in there I thought was damn good. And I ended up with 28 tokens. The most important thing I had a ton of fun. Looking forward to it next week.

    My bm made 5k on both wars. Got 97 and 67 b:cry. My faction was last as usual. People in other factions that won got 2x my reward, so there is hope for us b:victory.

    I can't have fun when I'm getting at best 3-4 shot killed. I got only 17 tokens this time, last time I got 117.
    So, me, who needs Raptures, got only 17 of them, and R9, who already have ton's of coins, got at least 300-400 of them.
    So in a few weeks/months, R9's will have enough for their Stage 3 R9, they will buy +12 and end-game shards and then I'll just be happy if I get 1 or 2 tokens b:laugh

    Nirvana gear won't be enough anymore, not for PVP, and Nation Wars is PVP.

    Yeah the R9 people where pretty much impossible to kill with my R8 bow. I tried to stay with group's of people and just tried to stun and bind them so the other people could kill them.

    I had few people telling me they didn't get any tokens after playing 2 hours of Nation Wars. I'm just wondering, how to earn some? From killing players or something else? They had about 7k personal points but didn't earn any rewards after that. They did check their mailboxes during and after midnight though.

    I don't know how I earned tokens for the first and second Nation Wars. What I know is I killed a few people. Just want someone to confirm how to earn some and if it is from killing people.

    Thanks.

    b:surprised

    Moved this to the main thread about it.... And yeah, it all depends on which nation you were in. It also seems to depend on what you were doing. I had more contribution in my nation than a friend of mine (who was in a different nation) on HT, but he got 14 tokens whereas I got none. I think it was because I managed to get locked in for a while and could basically just flag walk or afk. While he got his contribution mostly by hitting people. Protecting flag captures I think also might play a role. I really don't know but these all seem to be factor. Everyone is just learning so it may take some time to figure out. :)

    The mail with the reward can (but does not always) take a while to arrive.

    You need at least 2000 points to get anything (this is looking at averages between people who go low rewards and people who got nothing).

    Points are based on being in an area that was conquered by your nation, capturing flags, killing people and, what seems to be the biggest factor, the amount of damage you deal.

    You use the supply tokens at the new forge (military token exchange) to turn them into various things. It's the contemplation forge in N. Archo.

    With that they just mean that the mail containing the supply tokens will arrive at midnight at the very latest. There is nothing more to it, you just got them early.

    To all those wondering about contribution etc; Larkray from Dreamweaver posted a thread called Nation Wars that explains it pretty well. Like they said; this is not just a PvP instance; it's 'capture the flag". You have to get the flag to your base the most times; you just kill people along the way who try and steal your flag:) I think that's how you can get more contribution by helping do that. Anyhow, the thread explains it much more in depth than me:)

    FYI; I love this feature; it's the most fun I've had on here in a long time!! :)

    this guide teaches u everything u need to knowb:victory

    first thing for this guid is

    DONT COME WITH YOUR
    ALTS
    (as they block lands when u dont play them and as it lowers the reward for all, u prolly wont get much reward on ur alt that its worth it)


    2nd thing for this guide

    FOCUS THE GUY WITH THE
    FLAG

    i noticed alot of people do unnecessary fights like 5 people focus a random barb while the bm runs with the flag... brainless

    reduce the players jump ability when carrying the flag. its hard to stun some one when their jumping. specialiy the bm
    pwi gms are useless. submitting tickets are useless. start calling their main office's. raise hell. take back the game.

    ...is absolutely ridiculous.

    Sins are running in killing and stalking and getting people booted out of the instance...

    Seekers are vortexing at spawn points and killing people who don't get on fly mounts right away...

    At least in TW it takes TIME for them to get to the spawn point and while you can suicide run in you could still die. Here, a few sins can camp spawn points and even with the immunity buff they just tele stun you or knife throw crit you.

    Please put in aggressive NPCs or tower-esque defenses. This is getting ridiculous.

    Spawn killing is a viable strategy. If you can kill them 5 times they are out of the batte then your side has a player v player advantage...Not to mention you are keeping them busy.

    I wonder what NW is like. Sounds like a lot of fun. Maybe PWI expands it so other people can play that can't dedicate their weekends to PWI.

    This, to an extent, spawn killing can distract people from hitting me when I get the flag and run to capture zone. b:laugh

    I've been spawned in a spawn killing session as well, and I usually just run out, rebuff, then revenge kill them, if battle is even numbered. When one side has a huge number advantage, spawn killing is pretty common.

    I got 32 tokens on Friday, and 82 tonight.

    After 3 tries my Necklace refuses to give me any thing other than 1% magic damage reduction, but I got enough cannys in 2 hours to make my lunar boots into Dragon Rise Shoes with max stats and +5.

    Sadly I went down to 2 sockets going from S1 to S2 so I'm actually down 50hp b:cry

    I hope the next update brings a similarly efficient way to get socket stones. Getting them from BH is ok, but not much when you need about 5,000 for ONE socket. Using Gold to get them at 15:1 is probably the worst use of your real or virtual money I can think of aside from just buying fash for the wrong sex and npcing it ritualistically.

    Also I don't think their are even any catshops selling them anymore, probably for the same reason aforementioned.

    NW the Best Thing Ever In Pwi?

    Not is Best Thing Ever pass 1 hour /2 to read

    "unable to reach"
    "Istance full"
    "back previous position"

    Too many alts or AFKer and they are auto move on battlefield stole spot to me and who like me want to play.
    Result is i take only half of point.

    I'm seriously considering to quit PWI for many reason all related to NW.
    Time is crazy for my timezone, NW not is alts safe , moving system land to land suck, I feel a bit teased after waste time and coin for collect nirvy mats and stuff for my toons.

    The main problem is that farming will be too long only farm tome will take 3-4 months (with 400 token avarage week) and 4 of my rings will take 7-8 months. (+ neck, cape, helm, engraving)

    All this sacrifice for see in 1 years a new rank equip. Also i can't work on all my toons will take me 10+ years for all.

    I was try NW only for pvp fun but i repeat not is funny pass 1 hours to do nothing becouse battlefield are full of alt/AFK ppl.
