You are in the right direction in order to solve the 'giving zones' issue for cities BUT imhao it will need much more than just 1 royal crest as a reward for a successful defence at Forts. Make it 5 crests, if not more, and you will see some damn epic fights!!

We will maybe see incredible XRealming too .

Probably shouldn't hold your breath. Mara hasn't been discussed for much lately. Just the tentacle thing.

Not necessarily, at least not always as it will depend on the number of stars a city has. For example, if im going to push for a city with above 2 stars i believe it worth the effort to win Forts and fight in city as an attacker. But lets be honest, there is NO perfect solution for such things in a game where the main feature is PvP (rvr) of this kind. What we can do is to think of the best possible solution each time, and i believe rewarding a successful Fort defence with Royal crests is one of them, just not with only one. Afterall, we had similar reward with 1 invader token for defending T4 zones and not going Fort. Did it work as intended? No! Why? Cause 1 token is just too low reward!

Well would be time, hes garbage for nearly 2 years now :/

If i def a fort I receive a royal crest.
If I lose a fort I can receive more then 10 royal crest from city sc.
i think this won’t help about “throwing zone “ issue.
It would be nice if you put invader token droppable in regular zone ( or per kill aswell inside the fort ) and add atleast 3 royal crest for defending a zone.
The big issue I see right now Is when t2 zones are open and the lake is completely dea because players has no purpose to play In those zones, especially players with full inv, they just wait for fort or being afk during the fort and get themself ready for a city siege .
You can involve ppl to play more in the lakes when t4 isn’t open yet.
Cheers

Mara is still good but now it seems too weak cuz they buffed hard everything else.
Just look at asw or msh.

Mara isn't any good and i discussed it over and over again, but i won't spam the Patch Notes Thread with it now.

For me forts are still the least fun element in the game (mainly because of 30min funnels) while also having a very grindy token system.
Not only because of the chance of having too low contribution to even get any tokens at all, but also because of the shared loot table that makes it very hard to get any bag rolls at all (think i got 1 gold bag since the realese of forts).

With sovereign being realesed and new gear on the horizon, i think it only makes sense to ease the invader grind a bit.
That’s my two cents anyway.

Now this is a good change, well done there.

Please don't increase the token rewards. Sovereign should take weeks to get at least. It's already incredibly fast for organized guilds and try-hards to get crests.
