for Acean:
Not really, most of us have average or higher than average guilds. These potions only help players who are below average on guilds.
The only potion that works for me is for LG, and thats because I don't enroll much at all and only have LG 4. |
The longer term impacts of the potion are not so readily apparent but at the optimised end of the spectrum these potions have potential to cause a problem.
In the short term there is no real damage. A lot of older players will feel like they wasted time grinding but it has no direct stat impact
Over the next 6 months or so those with 1 or 2 guild significantly below average will benefit. This applies most to high level players with low or no thieves guild.
In the longer term (1 year+) the strongest players will be those who utilise the mechanics to make a boosted character which will have slightly higher overall parameters than the current elite cadre with balanced guilds.
The way to achieve this will be by severely underlevelling the new 'boostable' guilds and overlevelling the others. I.e. you play only CG and HG until high level. By doing this you will achieve above average guilds in those specific few.
The remainder can then be picked up at lower exp/fsp expenditure to match the average for your level. Any time you can pick up guilds more efficiently it will make your character stronger overall. At certain (mainly higher) levels the average guild will be the same as the max and this will be quite unbalanced.
This new efficiency mechanic means that balanced guilds as a concept are done and the peak characters will have to be carefully planned. It doesn't really impact the majority but in time the best characters will have to be boosted. |
for kchong:
YOU mad buoy? I did 13 wins a day easy, 17 is more than doable |
| Back in the TGI renting days I think the server record for TG2 was about 2.5 days, so around 50 per day. |
| I dont have problem with these potions. Anything to balance things. |
| As long as i dont have to be in team or face low stat chars and waste my life im fine with anything. |
Over the next 6 months or so those with 1 or 2 guild significantly below average will benefit. This applies most to high level players with low or no thieves guild.
Yeah, you're spot on.
I think the problem that older players may have is not the time put it, but instead the insanely better exp/guild point ratio that people will now enjoy doing these guilds. TG is a huge exp drain, and now you only receive 1/4th the exp for same tg level, which is insane. I'm curious how people will game this, and what the next meta will be on "Becoming a Monster 101" |
| They can erase this loophole, if they add a restriction on potion according to cg level. |
The TG potion is not really working:
https://www.lordswm.com/war.php?warid=1069335691 |
| It just stopped working. If so...i want my gold back. |
| Paid again for the potion. TG potion still doesn't work. This game is getting worse each day. |
| I want Smith potion. I dont't want to waste as much time and gold as others who reached SG9 had to. Balance Life Matters! I deserve it (not sure why, but why not). |
Looking at the .ru forum it looks like the admins have done a very abrupt u-turn on the TG potion in response to player feedback/criticism. (i'm only using translate)
Seems the TG potion effect has changed to:
Completely cancels the wait after a defeat in an ambush and speeds up the search for a new caravan, provided that the current guild level is less than the average for the current combat level. The effect lasts 7 days. |
for mellor:
I don't why would you buy another potion. |
| I'm against this potions but would be stupid not to use them since everyone else will. But anyways, another half done job from admins. Bad planning, bad execution. Bad overall. Best to just quit this game. My time (life) matters! |
| Burning gold anyways so it doesn't matter. It makes my choice of eeaving the game so.much easier. Shit game it has become. Damn addiction. |
WG potion has also been reversed.
Now the new potion effect gives more quests
'Attention! New effect! Twice increases the number of available guild quests, provided that the current guild level is less than average for the current combat level. The effect lasts 7 days.'
on .ru they also got refunded for potions purchased |
| I saw 10k increase in gold, pretty sure we did get secret refund |
| Did points gained get reversed or just a nice little boost? |
| I still have tg3 so i guess we keep the points :) |
