Was talking about transferring, not merging. Check the post I quoted.

How would inter-relational ties matter when you transfer from server A to B? Just discard them all. You won't have the same friend list or guild or spouse. All that matters is gear, and I don't think gears have any inter-relational ties? And people can delete a character without the server crashing? So how would the data…

I don't think they should wait until the server population is so low that the server is wasting money before merging. Because by then, the server is dead and there would be very little difference from shutting down the server. IMO they should merge early to keep the people who are on the verge of quitting and make them…

Let's see. At the height of NW there were maybe 1.6k players. If we assume even 10k active players, then you are basically telling me that the biggest event in PWI's history is attended by only 16% of the server. If you extend it to a million that's even more absurd. Nowadays we see numbers slowly dropping. Yes, some of it…

This. A million players? I'd be surprised if there's 2000 active players at the same time. Just look at NW numbers.

This isn't their main forum anymore so they probably don't care. Expect to be moved to the official arcgame forum before this forum gets updated.

Agreed, if you're really that scared of people taking drops then either take it yourself first or just set to random to begin with.

lol @ OP asking for GM for this when there are so many more pressing issues that they have to deal with.

Excellent idea to just reveal your faction's strategy and positioning to your opponents live. /sarcasm

Why should the winning faction not get rewarded if they rightfully deserve it? That's like working hard at winning a marathon and coming first, but being denied the gold medal because the other participants voted for someone else to get it. I have never seen that happen anywhere. Sure, give participation prizes to other…

Don't get blade hurled then.

So if you have characters on multiple servers, you can only choose one?

Yes yes I know that Descent gold prices wasn't AS good as Rising Tide, but it was still manageable. I remember that during Descent, getting full NV gears and R9 costed the same per piece (the rep and ring costed extra of course) which was manageable. I also had to choose descent over earlier expansions because: - the aps…

Ah, but it is much easier to prove by demonstration that someone is good with good gears compared to proving that they are good with garbage gears. In fact, more than half the time, a good player in garbage gear is completely unrecognized.

To be fair he is talking about 1v1, which is why he is talking about self buff. Barbs aren't that notable in mass, but in 1v1 they can be very OP if played well.

I think this is attributed to the fact that people don't change their opinion unless they experience it themselves. People who claim sins are OP need to go play a sin and fight a good barb in 1v1. People who claim archers are OP need to go play an archer and fight a lot of classes out side of mass pk. People who claim…

Remember when people didn't need TW rewards as an incentive to do TW? b:surrender

But this is irrelevant because I begin by assuming that player A and B does the exact same sequence of skill. Thus, any deviation from the expected value is purely luck/gear based and is not an indication of skill. I assume this because there are much easier ways to tell whether someone is unskilled or not that does not…

God of all sins????????? But I haven't seen any videos of you fighting another good sin. Care to show us?

If I recall the cube charges 105k per entry per person. It's supposed to only be 5k but it's bugged and doesn't return the 100k, so it isn't worth it.

This thread isn't so much a suggestion as is random ideas for fun. There are no justification to any of this...

Not necessarily. For example, if the instance has a lot of AOEs that needs to be done on kite-happy mobs, and two people can both kill all the mobs in one zerk crit (but nothing less), then the speed of their run depends entirely on the number of zerk crits they get. If they get a zerk crit they can immediately move on. If…

Defeated? Please, I moved to this thread because OPKossy asked me to not derail the other thread; I did this only as a polite gesture.

I will direct it to a new thread http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1722691

That's not a really good analogy. If a lv 80 can't solo fb 29, might just be that they have no gears. We can say they suck at gearing themselves yes, but we can't say anything about their skill. A better analogy would be two people damage testing on mobs. Two people with the exact same gears can use the exact same skill…

It's indirect bragging. By saying things such as "good seekers would've 1-2 shot me", you are implying that they suck because they didn't 1 shot you, so you are indirectly bragging that you're more skilled than them.

Anyone can when you don't define how long "a while" is, nor do you define what "beat" means. For me, a while means within one day and beat means winning more than 50% of the fights. I know quite a few people who have been practicing since forever. Maybe you can land a few kills on them since PW has luck involved, but I…

You know what else is stupid? People bragging how good/bad someone is based off how much damage they took/dealt. As if damage is not completely random within a range and can somehow be improved by being more skilled (hint: you can't).

If you mean your server, I'd believe you. If you mean any server based on R9rr, maybe, but that's just a maybe cause barbs are OP. If you mean literally anywhere this game allows for, then I call bs. You can't even fill up a squad of good players from all of PWI; you will lack a lot of experience vs some of the people who…

No you didn't. You said it in a previous post. I was not referring to that post.
