Patch Notes 07/03/2020 - Return to Nordland

[aa91837]

i would think this event is really badly timed..

a big surge of new players join the server and you make an event, for older players to come stomp new players with ablities they never have seen.

oh i think you misunderstood . They will be like a lvl 15, with worst gear and no talis.

They NOT will be like a lvl 15

Debolstered players with 4 tactics(idk bug?),with such abilities as wl pull, kotbs punt.. etc vs new players

With the way more active playerbase and sc pops, is it possible to let us hand in the SC quests to the questgiver in the SC? It sucks having to sit around IC if you want to hand in the quest after every win when you could be out questing/farming/killing between pops.

We're not going to encourage pugging the end-game PVP sets. Get into a warband during the grace period between fort and city and queue up as soon as it opens to try and get matched up with another full warband. THAT should be the answer you're looking for. If you're not interested in high-level coordinated PvP between evenly numbered warbands, don't show up to the city.

Strictly from order perspective, that's all fine and dandy, but when you have classes that, at best, get ONE spot in a well organised wb (WH, WL, Engi) and some that get none (SW) there might be a discussion worth having. Do we let subpar classes cheese-pug their way to the latest gear or do we make those classes more attractive to wb leaders? After all, high-level coordinated PvP is usually about aoe damage/utility; with minor exceptions.

After testing some feedback for this event I also agree that damage from debolstered players is very high, particularly moral damage is too high, with my bw it's 2 or 3 shot kills (m2) getting 3 or 4 db's at once! Mainly because new players just don't have enough wounds.

I found the supplies task part of the event kind of hard due to so many people trying to pick up the supplies and Norland is so busy in general.

Any suggestions on how to complete the supply box delivery? With the amount of players camping the box spawn and its respawn rate it seems pretty impossible.
Ive been standing there for more than half an hour, but never was fast enough or maybe my latency is higher or idk. And imagining I need to returt 15 of em it makes me think I wont ever complete it. It is last thing I need to complete the event.

Any suggestions how to do that? Is there more creates than one next to flag?

Devs wouldnt it be possible to increase the spawn rate?
Thanks a lot everyone for reply and soecial thanks to devs for this server. Im enyoing the game I bought, but wasnt able to play properly back then due to my poor pc.

Have two questions:

1. With the x2 weekend all exp bonus event over, I noticed this event has a x2 tag for just nordland debolstered and natural 1-16 ORvR. Does that mean we can still enjoy a RR/EXP bonus if we participate as a debolstered player in Nordland until the 15th?

2. As a level 35 player in T1 Nordland fighting other 40+ debolstered players in Nordland, how would medal drop types be handled? Is the game still considering the players max level and RR level, allowing them to drop soldier/officer/conq e.t.c. medals or is it still capped at the recruit and scout medal level? If we can earn higher medals this would be a fun way to grind to officer/conq gear and RR while not worrying about farming ruined gear/being behind gear curve as we get closer to 40 when the bolster stat crutch inevitably fails so 40/40+ players body you :L.

X2 hasn't ended. We're letting it roll for a while longer to compensate for the server troubles this weekend.
