I don't recall seeing such a message in cases where no renown/medals was awarded in forts or end zone flips, but i may have it filtered out somehow. Could you provide the exact format of this message?

That will enable me to search for occurences in the full log files (chat.log and combat.log) the next time it happens. If the issue happens and this message is not in either log, it may be a point in time worth investigating. It is a long shot, but i guess it is worth a try.

Your contribution was too low to get any rewards from + Fort name

Open world forts are more reactive. You just need a good strategy and good execution and you will see that the new fort system actually worths it.

All changes support making bigger zerg - so premade warbands with high coordination and great leadership are useless. Wrong direction I think.
All changes help aoe-classes and make other classes more useless
You dont have to fokus - you dont need much coordination
Zones are to smal for 300 player - bring back - pls the old system. - we know, it is not good, but better than the New changes .
Maybe the team has other / more ideas to test.
My opinion. Good luck finding other ways.
Dont have xrealmer problems - i dont play destro - often really sad for me - without primetime we are outnummerd - sometimes with more then 150 players... thats a problem : Most fun is in balanced population zones

How does the AoE cap help the zerg? Before they could sit in their zerg to avoid most damage

• Its all about BLOB and zerg. I don't think those maps were designed to hold that many players.

• All tactics are gone. ATM if you are defending and on top of that You have like 2-3 more WBs on your side attackers cannot do anything. Being in organized WB doesnt work cuz Defenders have closer respawn / time to get to BOs and they can blob up follow blob clowkwiese and heal doors. No coordination, tactics needed there. Its kinda like fighting people at their Warcamp...

• To few entrances, 1 inner postern for mdps only, spiky doors, not wide enought doors and lag. LAG LAG LAG.

• #xrealm And the worst of the worsts. People switchting to defending or more bloby side.

• fixing fort xrealming: once you get contribution in last zone you get TICKET (decays in 24h) that when you use gives you buff: " 30 min, you get contribution in fort". Its a lesser evil solution. People can still switch to other side but no ticket = no reward (most people will not join if no rewards = less zergs mby?) IF they have active TICKET from other day, they can join and get contri and rewards. Seems fair if they actually contributed to capturing last zone.

• We need more entrances both in outer and inner

• Split up BOs or add more BOs far outside of defenders reach (behind or in front/side of fort?) so the blob cant just go clockwise and melt stuff = they have to split resources = chance for attackers to strike.

• Make forts Race with time -remove healing doors with this number of people - reasoning if defenders controll the game they will and should be able to do it thru all time. No need for healing doors cuz they have also Lord defense chance to turn it around. This allows for ninja caps for attackers, roamers ect. Defenders need to stay alert and not just blob and funnell walls and if they get cocky and push to attackers WC again ninja caps and more tactics aveilable to attackers.

• make special WB leader chat only, helps to organise pugs
