I highly doubt you can. Pvp matches are paired up randomly. Who says your alt is going to go against another one of your alts? Chances are far too slim.

As for multi-boxing 5 alts... nope not possible. As far as I know, I'm not into hacking but I guess that's something you wish to pursue.


Lol it's completely possible. 5 accounts on 5 clients. Easy on a good computer.

Oh really? Won't even let me open two clients. Tells me I already have a client open.
Nope, doesn't work. Sorry. I just tried.

Then you're doing it wrong. Cause it works for me.

I can open any of my alts while i'm ingame on my main.

I have one client open. And then I double click launch RoM again. What am I doing wrong?

Do you just have the launcher open? Cause it won't let you open another one if you just have the "start game" window open. But if you have it all open to where you can log in and stuff it should let you open another one.

I have one window open where I am already on Acet right. Then I click the RoM shortcut on my desktop and it DOES take me to the start game menu but it will not open up a second browser for me.

And if this whole thing of 2 alts playing together is legal... I wouldn't mind running my toons through mini games 'o.0 But I'd rather not risk it as it may very well be an exploit.

Idk then. Because it works for me.

It's been said by GM's that multiclienting is legal. It's multiboxing (Using multiple accounts on multiple computers) is what is against the rules.

I guess that makes sense to some extent.
Anyways, let's bring this thread back on topic as I am really into getting something more out of these PvP matches and not crappy level 55 gear, guild runes that cost 333 honor points (rofl), mats that are virtually worthless (to me at least), etc.

As for hero pots, unicorns, etc, I don't see them at the Mercenary Square...
Even then I bet they'd be extremely overpriced even for 87k honor points which took me like a month of sieging to get.

Mats for hero pots, unicorns, etc. Have your guild alchemist make them for you. Saves a ton of gold.

I wouldn't be horribly averse to this idea I guess, as long as it was controlled and not abusable. But with Runewakers Track Record... I don't see them doing it right.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind if they did up the rewards a bit, but just not so much as people would try to abuse it in the ways I described before.

Btw, I'm on a l2-3 year old (non gaming) laptop and can easily have 3 different characters logged in at once. A friend of mine was able to have 8 characters on (windowed) at a time, so it is most certainly a possible concern

100 honor points for winning and I also gain small quantities like 5-25 honor points for kills. However, this is very minimal and I think it should be more awarding than honor points and 3 simple first aid potions (level 1 pots). -.-

Actually, you get less than that. After you have over 20k honor points you don't actually get those 5-25 pts per kill, it's just all or nothing for the 100pts depending if you win or not. And those crappy packages only appear from 1v1 matches, win or lose.

All i really see about the honor system is, " *I* don't find honor points useful! Make it more worth my while!"

How about being able to level up your guild faster by using your honor points to buy the wood/ore/herbs/guild runes and whatever else you need to level. Don't want your honor points? Sell them. Offer to buy people stacks of whatever from the honor shop and they pay you X/honor point + the cost of the item (Since you need both gold AND honor points)

Sell the mats, make some gold, wash rinse repeat.

Or better yet, use them to level one of your crafting skills, or even an alts skills.

As for the PvP matches, i agree they are not worth doing for the rewards, but shells and mentos would just turn it into another abused system. Bumping up the rewards for PVP sounds like a good idea to me, but not shells or mentos.

Maybe make EXP/TP charms available for honor points.
