There are numerous problems as to why new/solo players leave. 1. Constant ganking : Start as a new player: Pushed in the water while fishing, killed while mining, killed while cutting wood, killed while leveling your skills at the GY. Then the new player goes outside and sees that EVERYTHING...

Absolutely right. Playing solo (800hours solo-mage here :) ) while not being impossible, is really too hard. The world is huge and i actually like it like that. For me the biggest grievance is Mounted Builds while solo roaming. In open steppes you are simply doomed. The draw distance in this...

Solo-Sieges arent really necessary. Lockpicking and stealing from strongholds/houses would be nice for solos to get revenge. I agree with the carebear-argument. Big guilds can respawn almost anywhere because there doesnt seem to be a limit to how many structures a guild can own and only very...

Good suggestion. But isnt the Task-system just fundamentally flawed? Every Mob drops you a trophy like a head or a paw. I think those should be tradeable at the Task-NPCs for the rewards. This would make the whole riding around much less time consuming. Also Id suggest the same thing for red...

So one arrow that just does 21more dmg, one that does 30dmg and one that does 35dmg. How would you expect lets say a melee fighter to outdps that? Archers are already very, very strong because of their high dmg. These arrows would make the whole game a cake walk. (which it already is for...

Two options for this: Either the pets are about lvl 40 max and do about 5dmg per hit or the person you fought (if it was indeed one tamer) is somehow cheating.

Yes they do. Its real time hours and your character is "reading" the book even youre offline.

I would propose a system that allows my character to maybe read to other characters when they log out close to one another and both have the book equipped. From a roleplay perspective it would make a lot of sense that a really well-read mage could read to warriors. Would make the whole timesink...

Some pets, Campodons in particular, are OP, no doubt about it.... of course, again, especially if you clad them in plate armor. There should be some specialized roles for pets. Campodons should be slow,so slow that you can outrun them, dont do that much damage and should be able to tow...

I know the timers shown in game dont really mean much and therefore it is hard to find out how long it actually takes and how much int affects it. With 115 int some book still tell me they need 80+ hours but my character just reads them in like 10. All you can really do is always double check...

Okay.. i finally have time to respond to this and I really do not agree with much of this post. First of all Archery is not considered to be a standalone class coz you really dont need all the skills to be a "viable" archer. Just dump 100 points in archery and you have AMAZING ranged damage...

Troll mechaics existing isnt the problem. Its the risk/time vs. reward problem. Running around naked and stealing 250g regularly would be a bad mechanic. Its just like mining. I dont care getting slapped while naked mining... but i do mind that mining takes so godamn long and is so boring that...

Urgh.. so if someone gets offended by what was ment as a joke, we're in unsafe territory?! Thats rough. Really hope SV has logs and at least some sense of humor, else its always a he said, she said situation and banning a paying customer over rumors/hearsay would be really, really bad for...

Thanks for clarifying. If what you said is true ( and i dont see much of a reason to not believe you right now) i agree. Its always nice to hear both sides of the story. Since Im playing in Vadda and Moh Ki mostly, am i in danger of being proximity banned? :D

The problem is since trinkets can give you A LOT of primary skill points every footie is also a pretty decent mounted archer at some point. Mages are only strong in group fights since 4 mages can kill a single player without ANY counterplay. In a 1v1 scenario a mage will most likely lose to...
