Return of Reckoning

Would be nice to see something to balance sides, or encourage some kind of bonus to whoever is getting rolled over at the time.

I don't have many ideas about how to get a balance. Maybe better loot drops or some stat bonus for the "defenders" ?

Being an Order player, with an empty or afk camp and only a few going out to pvp against the OP destro hordes 20:1 starts to get less fun kind of, when it's impossible.

Scenarios at least you have a chance in, well sometimes.

Are all the best guilds on destro by the way guys? I feel like maybe players will start leaving order and going to destro. But then that will be even less fun, as there would be no one left for destro to fight I guess!

just lock players to their faction when they have no one to fight they'll either leave or you'll see a pop boost on underdog was like that on BC stupid amounts of order in rvr lake low destro pop 2 weeks later about the same pop till server shutdown

AAO is the magic word. and there seem to be less people on order forming premade for open rvr. its all more guild internal. I don't know how it's going on on Destro side but by watching the roaming in the lake there seem to be more organised premades rollin

AAO never fixed anything all it did was get the 6mans farming renown to trollin about for ganks having a faction cap would solve it but then again thats never been good on mmos. AAO pops up swap zones heard that way 2 many times back on live.

Locking factions is not the answer since people can make multiple accounts and bypass that. AAO maybe didn't fix population imbalance but it did give the underdog a reason to stay instead of rage-quit, because they would wind up losing a chance to get 2x or more experience than normal per kill.

Right now it seems that both factions stay relatively close to 50% on each side, though of course there are T1 players on both sides as well and us players in T2 don't think about that too often.

Giving faction bonus, like the 50% renown, also won't work because players would all join that side then, even if they have level 20 toons on the other side. People like it when they get rewards, as a healer in WAR I would know. I loved nothing more than getting those purple arpeez when healing people. The bigger the number, the better you feel, a silly thing to be exact.

Zerg surfing with a group and aao bonus, good times.

Order problem right now is that there are way to many isolated 6 man guilds.

ppl dont whant to join into guilds, because maby guilds dont have bonuses like guild tactics . if u are into guild u get more 5% more renown and ather cool things like influence and some stats. u capture keep get 1500 rr into guild u get 5% more renown same is for kills and ather capture objects. maby that change things.

also make better oder melle clases , i am 125% sure if mara loses his self heal they will be less. fix also their bugged weapons

I play on destro enough to tell you that their are not really premades but rather mainly guild grps or some one will yell that their is an open wb in /ad

Only Lupus on destro rand stuff like that and their gone after many members got banned

But that DOSNT stop ordo from complaining about premades in sc's when ever their getting rekt
