Here is an undocumented change that has been ignored for one entire year dating back from the release of chapter 5.


I will type it very easy to understand.


Remove The 80% Requirement For Arena/Battlefields To Launch.


OR


Give an explaination on why it was changed in the first place. I can't believe an entire year has gone by and I'm sitting here even paying mind to this issue. I watch every patch, in fact 2 of them had mentioned fixes but nothing was fixed (one mentioned karros, other just mentioned "battlefield changes" with no change). It is an insult to players and above anything, you're losing money from it, or lost money from it or whatever potential for more revenue was lost due to poor testing, poor communication (from CMs to GMs to push the issue to RW) and just an overall lack of respect for your player base.


Thanks.

There was an issue apparently with the quest Drafting Countermeasures (links to a former Thread reguarding the full issue).
I just literally finished up-to this quest (towards the end of MT). If there is no solution to the fix of this, there won't be a way to continue this questline INTO the new zone. There was one suggestion that this quest could only be done once Patch 6.0 comes out, hope that's the case. Otherwise you're all going to have an angry mob with pitchforks and torches coming at you.

Hope you can give some Re-assurance/confirmation on this to relief us with.
TY, and for the most part im very pleased to see the Knight Rework, very interested into seeing how the final product turned out.

It seems there is a siege every 4 hours.

Guilds can pick a timeslot that works best for them
A real sysadmin knows how to change the time.
If you make the same mistake while trying to make up for the previous one, you are doing something wrong.

As much as I'd love to say I offer consulting services, the scope of things broken is too large.

12 hour cooldown for registering again

not sure if it is guild limit or character limit.

also --HUGE-- warning, spend your honor points, they are capped at 25k now.

lots of bugs, some old some new, siege war we fought 2 guilds at once(old bug, but seriously how hard is it to fix that) , lost twice of course and lost twice the points, those in 1st siege that lost couldn't enter back into siege. Honor points from siege now cap at 25k?????????? no warning, no nothing? Some in my guild lost over 400k could have been used for mats or something had there been warning. I lost 200k, not too happy stupid nerf, don't understand why the cap.

Ahh... The mysteries of RoM strike again with a loss in the loss column for the players...STILL, SOME MORE, AND AGAIN!

Lost nearly 50k of honor points which UNLIKE many I use several times a month for myself and my fellow guildies who are trying to level their skills. People who don't have TIME to refine or gather mats are now again at a disadvantage to folks who have a billion alts and all the time in the world to refine/gather.

Oh and I HAD not entered into SW btw... When I bought my 1st Stack of 100 Dusk Orchid bundles... ALL the HP disappeared.

Shall I file a ticket?

Oddly enough, varied/multiple siege times has been one of the most requested changes over the past two or three years.

As far as I have been able to determine, any given guild may siege *once* per day, with a 10-hour cooldown between siege signups. At least, the 10-hour restriction was displayed after our siege this afternoon.

With my specific time zone (Central) in mind, the first siege started a 3pm CDT--registration "opened" no later than 1PM CDT, siege prep is at 2pm CDT. The next registration for those guilds which did not sign up for the first siege starts at 5pm CDT, closes at 6pm. Siege prep is 1 hour after registration, siege follows 1 hour after siege prep. Siege lasts 1 hour, so the next registration (3rd siege) should be at 8pm CDT.

If my math is correct, sieges are at (Central time) 3pm, 8pm, 1am, and 6am. Registrations would begin at 1pm, 5pm, 11pm, and 4am. Maybe. :D My math could be off, since there's a large gap between the 6am siege and the 1pm registration for the following siege.

We may have to wait and see how this all plays out.

i posted it somewhere else before but it does not matter.

enter pvp = points gone.
enter siege = points gone.
BUY STUFF with points = 25k minus price = your points. even if you had 10 billion points.

I entered siege and did not lose points, I think it is when you complete siege, I logged out as my guild was glitched as usual and sieging two guilds, could not re-enter siege and still had points. But same difference almost, you will basically lose points if you siege or use your points buying something.

Either way ppl losing 10s if not multiple 100s of thousands of Honor Points is a pretty big deal. There's a reason why some people were saving them up and to lose out of 1-2 years worth of Honor Points is a massive slap in the face after being kicked in the family jewels.

So basicly, Gameforge didn't have time to either translate from korean to german then to english for all the patches we got.

[COLOR=white !important]If you right click materials like herb, ore and wood you can deassemble them to a lower grade ;-) YEAH!!!!

Honor points disappear to a max of 25K no matter how many you got, even if you try to spend them, pook down to 25K, sad.

Not enough info for siege war times and participation

Knights got a few things finally but get screwed on their TP, skills cost more and skills we had that are gone, so is the TP. Anyone care to send us like 30X TP 1M orbs please to fix this??

To use mementos, P-shells, POM's or EOj's you need to right click them to stick them in bank on 5 tab of your character thing, could have put P-tokens too while at it ;-(

Now gotta learn to play knight/scout again with new skills ;-(

Would be nice to have a translator to give the true patch notes, or give them to us in korean and we will do it.
