If they do decide to reinstate some type of murderer reprieve, I hope that they come up with some way better than "join factions". Got one faction character that I made red (very foolishly, I might add) at Yew gate.
It'd be cool (not cool=neat, but cool=ok) if you could quit whatever faction you're in and join a new one and have it do that same thing.
IF they implement reprieves, of course.
Thieves are newbies now? Sweet!!!
jk!!!
Newbies are pretty common on my shard, albeit I'm on Atlantic.
I help out every once in a while... more often than not though, I'll run home for something, be gone a total of 5 seconds, back to Haven, and find that they haven't stayed put. After looking for them for a few mins I throw whatever it was in my bank and leave *shrugs*.
Can't help someone if they don't know to stay put when you say "Be right back, I'm going to run and get something for you".
