I agree with the OP! Someone inform us ASAP when it's up, and also if rubble is a trade-in!

This has -nothing- to do with the fact that I just found a vendor with bags of rubble for only 1k apiece. It has nothing to do with that!

I swear! <.<

I think we all misread the thing under live were something will happend may 2nd and last week in May. this publish might hit a shard near us May 2. they are probably going to want to give it a weekend at least on test and a weekend on origin that will leave us with a may 2nd early morning at maintance. we also must check on wording early next week on this would quality as friday this week if after her time for writting the five on friday and i am sure the patch notes will have at least five answers so kills 2 birds with on stone. and we will have it announced in april so that covers the tba for april .

it is not them being late it is us not fully understanding

Thanks for the update.

Feel free to take your time.

Also if you could slip in a Faction change, allowing Factioners to be healed and rezzed outside of Felucca, that'd be lovely, because then I could put Galen in Factions.

you lot chat about how reds get it hard, yet you seem to want changes that make life a hell of alot easier for you. If trammies join factions for 'rewards' you should play like everyone else in a faction. and that means not getting ressed in trammel.

But if the change was made, all factioneers would be rezed in tram by anyone, so whats the problem?

Speaking as someone who plays a healer/support character alot... yeah that would be nice. It's really annoying tossing bandages and heals and cures .... and being so busy you don't realize it didn't work until they die. Sucks at places like Magicina and Moonglow etc. Trammel rule areas only though, in Felucca ... that's part of the risk there.

I'm guessing the problem would be the Tram folks who want a pretty blue horse to pose at WBB without being a "proper" factioner and doing any real fighting.

Though allowing factioners to fight in Tram but not get kill points would maybe put them off...

TBH I don't have an issue with the current system, if you can't hack the inconvenience of nobody rezing you, how on earth are you going to survive faction rezkillers and other fun in faction PvP?

I have Wench on ignore, but I happened to see her post before I was logged on. Not sure if her text will show up in my reply or not; it might.

Anyway.....Not for her (I have her on ignore for a reason) but for the rest of you readers, the answer as to why I want to be rezzed/healed in Trammel and yet be in Factions is thus.

-I can't fight Factions in Trammel.

-I do high-level PvM, such as Doom and Peerlesses and this Moonglow event, with some frequency. PvM is very much my first love, but I am attracted to Factions for RP reasons. I was in them before and did reasonably well.

Would I join Factions if I could fight all over the place, but also couldn't be rezzed or healed anyplace?

50/50 chance I'd say.

Would I join if I could be healed/rezzed outside of Felucca? Hell yes.

No, I obviously don't expect that fact alone to cause them to change it.

*chuckles*

Why Wench keeps wanting to insult me I don't know....Maybe I offended her somehow when I was on Europa some years back. Maybe she was in the Apple Infantry and I killed her at a Harrower spawn or something.

Either way.....Regardless of Wench's insults, the real reason I want the change made are above.

Yes, I know those jokes well, I am a Network Engineer I am always having to feed the hamsters and buy new ones to keep the users happy. The key is to feed the hamsters just enough cocaine to keep them running but not so much that their hearts exploded. Its a delicate balance.

So is it safe to assume that it won't be published to Origin for testing over the weekend? Please?

Yes, that is a real annoying factor.

And the other guy brought something up about reds.. a Faction person and a PK are two different things. PKs killed other innocent players.

That's not necessarily true. There are many faction players who are red and vice versa.

Ehhh nope because I got 8 accounts and 2 pc's so I never have a problem getting rezzed on my reds or on faction toons , but its just bleeding annoying

exciting? that doesn't sound good. You must be using the same system I have to use in the library. I added 20 new books and between the save and server pooof gone.

Galen you probably can't see this but I have never intended to insult anyone here. If you can't understand that a person can disagree with another while still respecting them afterwards, I'm sorry. This is another thread and if you remember you weren't so sweet and angelic to me in our last discussion either. Let it lay and move on... If I wanted to insult a person directly I would do it to their face, which this clearly was not. Had it been I'd have received a warning from someone, and quite rightly so. Which I haven't.

I made a simple statement that it's not IMO a concern that players can't res in Tram when they'd be factioning in Fel and subject to all the reskilling that can often occur around a battle area. Because a quick run to the healers is something you become used to doing on both facets, without thinking about it. Stat loss is more annoying but part of the system. Players do no fight nice in factions, so a little inconvenience in Tram is not going to concern you after that. I had that when my main PvM char was in a warred guild and you just get used to it.

And it's obviously best to use a char who is solely for PvP just in case you go red while factioning too.

But I'm likely talking to myself here. Ach well...

I understand where you are coming from. And back 8-9 years ago, when factions were implemented, the 'no heal' rule was less of a burden, since there were many people in factions. Hundreds. There would be faction people around 24/7.
Nowadays there are maybe 15 active people in factions on my shard, divided over 3 factions.
Getting a rez in Tram does become a huge task now.

Oh and the real Tram folk, just leave factions and leave their char on the warhorse.

Aye, I used to feel sorry for folk who rushed after me to try a res, which I knew they'd never manage
TBH I still tend to run for the healers unless I think someone's got time to res, all the times I've seen a good citizen die mid res make me feel bad
There's that embarrassing silence when his ghost pops up beside yours and you feel like crawling under the floor lol.

Hopefully we pull a good number back into factions now it's a bit more fixed. I think there was a mention of some faction rewards too, or maybe I dreamt it lol. Got 1 char in training then my thief is joining once I get her ninja done. Lot of stuff to re-learn then I'll possibly put a crafter in too for good measure. I'm not sure we'll get back to the big battles of days past, but Europa has a pretty decent PvP guild following, so hopefully they join factions too. I'll do my share of encouraging more newbies in too, as I think CoM might be one of the smaller EU factions.

Can you still ride a faction horse after quitting the faction? I was under the impression that you could have them stabled and claim them, but not ride. Could be wrong though, but I'm sure it was changed because of said posers
I'm not sure that even the faction title shows up in Tram now.
