Return of Reckoning

LOTD, City, another event.
No changes to zone mechanics, no balance changes (at least that we're aware of) and no bug fixes.
Soon the server will be full of nothing but the sound of crickets.

Yes. Resources and spots in q are the way ppl are let in already too.

This patch has been unstable for me. Crashing frequently, especially when porting to a new zone.

I don't agree with this LotD numbers system change, or it needs to have a greater range before it kicks in. Why is this system not the same for forts? Oh because defenders could then just not show up and keep the other side from being able to participate. This is why there is no soft capping attackers in forts, only the max number cap.

Honestly, the reason LotD is so imbalanced is because one side refuses to spread out and take BOs. They then get behind in score and people start leaving in droves. It happens every time and this won't change the outcome.

Would it be possible for the vendor to sell these in the "dye gear" template so you can see how stuff looks on your character?
Sry if its implemented already, i havent had a chance to check it out.

Pocket Palette addon.

LotD is a test ground. If system works and gets the job done it can then be extended to forts.

The reservation system has been tweaked to never allow more than 6 players more than the opposing realm to allow for more equal numbers when one side isn't filling up.

What will happen if one faction decide to boycott the event ? Or during NA event, when there isn't that much players ?

Remove the debuff in lotd and see what happen ? People zerg anyways, 6-12-24 could do more if they are not nerfed by 50% and zerg already get hurt by the flag lost in the back.

City change are just a minor buff reward for stomping, balanced city is a tie in middle for the entire two stage and pve race on lord. Would be cool to rework the bag system, either by removing bag and increase crest for everyone or allow people to pass.

Those small grps or warbands get no debuff unless there are more realmmates nearby.

Please put in patch notes where new merchants and quest givers are.
