Pls, remove faction artifacts from Siege!
Devs, if you read this thread (and other threads on the Siege forum) closely you will see that since the introduction of these prodo items on Siege it has become a must-have when PvPing. If someone dies and gets looted they won´t get back into the fight unless they have faction arties. No more just making up another suit of whatever is in the chests. Was this intended? I doubt it...
Here´s some examples:
It hurts our PvP population cause people as you all know don't have the time like they use to in UO or the drive to farm up silver or farm up the money to buy.
Currently farming silver for hours or hoping someone puts your stuff up for buyback and paying out the nose isnt appealing.
You have to have hundreds of thousands of silver to play factions or be rich to buy your stuff back.
Regardless people dont have hours of time spend doing blighted or fire temple... You do hyloth the spawn is so dam slow your getting maybe 2k an hour... who has almost 2-3days of full farming to do at hyloth just to suit up...
What the factioners want with threads like this is to be able to afford a bunch of these overpowered backup suits. So if they die they just put on another one. They die again? Put on another one etc etc. Sounds like insurance to me.
... so the majority of SPers now want powerful items easier to get?
No, Stupid Miner. Only the factioners...
I find faction items to overpowered so they should be very expensive.
I would like the balance back on Siege. It's bad when PvP'ers have to be in faction to PvP and have to have this stupid factions items.
I say remove the faction items and lets all use imbuing items, then maybe a nonfaction players attacked of a red faction player would have a better chance to fight back.
Then we also get rid of all this pancakes about buying back factions items and there will be better business for the crafters.
What Freja said!
Before farties it was fun being attacked when out fighting monsters. Now if I get attacked by a factioner I just run or hide. No fun for him, no fun for me.
Here's the thing you guys will never seem to understand. You take away faction gear, we go back to running real artifacts and cursed artifacts. We go back to running the best imbued suits, while you all keep it as cheap and "balanced" as you think you can. Before faction items came out, you all bitched about cursed arties and the evil/hero system. Besides, the items allow for more template creations and more fun.
This is way better than the faction stuff. Cause the difference is that real arties and cursed ones arent unlimited. You can´t just visit a NPC and buy an overpowered suit in 2 minutes.
If your running out of items you have to find sellers or equip other stuff. That´s how it should be. Not just have a guaranteed fartie suit every time you die.
Again *coughs* insurance *coughs*...
With the devs just throwing prodo garbage on our shard sp just keeps stepping closer to being a prodo shard
I agree.
Don't talk to me about balancing siege. She specifically said that she wants to have a chance fighting a pvp character on her crafter. I gave a scenario where her crafter is going to die regardless of faction items. THERE IS NO BALANCING those two types of play styles...If you're found gathering resources, your going to die.
Not true. I´m a PvMer and I have stood my ground a few times when a PKer has attacked me. Unless you were talking about you and not in general. Then yes, I died to Asty once. Actually, all three of us...
Oh well, to sum it up.
Please remove faction artifacts from Siege.
And as I know that will likely not happen, whatever you devs do, DO NOT lower the cost of the farties!
