Re: The alienation of solo/pug/casual players and it's unintended side-effects

I have to admit, I never found TTK is that big an issue, particularly once you hit vanq-level with a dps. Sov tanks are beastly tbf. I remember we played in a city against a premade that ran 1-3-2 party compositions, and they did very well indeed. Plenty SCs I played in with very odd, dps-heavy comp...

Re: The alienation of solo/pug/casual players and it's unintended side-effects

people will do the smart thing and switch to winning side, and things will be back to square one. Apart from forts, there's not really more rewards for fighting for the side which attacks keeps and those which defend. One issue with current system is side which is strongest dictates speed of the ga...

Aha, I can kind of see the point, has some merit.

Team that wins get rewards for winning though, surrender is there to stop people having to just die over and over again in very unbalanced games.

Re: The alienation of solo/pug/casual players and it's unintended side-effects

Graph The graph is essentially picking Australian TZ. The peak during lockdown was at well over 2k players, they had to expand the server. Even now, most nights EU timezone will hit 800, and is around 800 right now. Should RoR reach out to casual players? Of course. However, RoR is a volunteer proj...

Re: remove rewards from kills with 100% aao or more

latelly most fights out of primetime are empty keep take with 200% aao and even people ganking with a pop of 30 vs 100 since they just surfzerg and get the emblems/shards for free from ezy kills would be cool to remove or decrease drop rewards depending on the aao % of the zone This already happens...

Re: Howdy all!

Classes - Tank, Healer, DPS

So each group needs these classes.

Order tends to lack a lot of hardy tanks, and melee, while destro shuns rdps a fair bit. Both sides always need healers.

Re: The alienation of solo/pug/casual players and it's unintended side-effects

I try to remind myself of this while watching solo Witch Elves appear, rip a few tanks to shreds, kill their healer and then dance around with the MDPS only to disappear in the middle of their burst leaving them to die from dots while wandering off to find another group of targets. Clearly some cla...

Re: The alienation of solo/pug/casual players and it's unintended side-effects

I did not know about this. I stayed some time away from RoR. But that was the most stupid idea they could have in the whole server history. And it's clear now that this idea didn't work. I can understand it, people blame way too much on "balance", when organisation, group composition and ...
