Return of Reckoning

bye bye balance

Order:+15% heals/party(kotbs) ,+25% crit/party (kotbs/sw)

and devs added dmg buff/debuff ? LOL

I would like to know, are the players who sit in a keep/WC afk going to screw over their realm now? I mean it was already annoying to see, I'm worried now it'll be actively harmful as well.

So let's take a typical day.

destro fielding 3 wbs (72)
Order fielding 1.5 wb (36)
destro owns 3 bo's 150% supply. (allowed realmpop = 54)

outFactor = sqrt(realmPop / Max(36, allowedRealmPop))
outfactor = sqrt (72/54)
outfactor = 1.333

Incoming Damage = (1 * outFactor)
Outgoing Damage = (1 / outfactor)

So incoming damage would be = 1.33% (1000 damage = 1013 ??)
outgoing damage would be reduced = (1000 damage = 250 ??)



I am missing something here I am sure. #numbersmakemyheadhurt

I am not trying to be difficult. If possible could you guys translate the above if I figured it wrong?

On the other hand you wil be able see now 5- 6k+ doombolts, 1k ravage, 2k AW.
Smells like small groups enjoying quick roam across zones will have to log opposite side or stick to the blob and afk leech. I can easly imagine 6 man Korze or Crystalist wipe pug warbands on BO defence.
I really hope it wont be true:)

The assault was announced and there was 3 minutes time to undo that.
Since your group didn't charge the BO and no one else on your faction was in the mood to do so, your realm is punished for that. Or the other faction did play it smart, or simply was more organized. Then they deserve the buff (that can be undone by retaking a BO).

Straight up buffs/debuffs depending on population is something I am strongly against and if this is the intended direction I cannot see me playing much. Will be taking a break and see how this develops.

Nice patch, I will join the Zerg Side just to RvR.
P.D: Sarcasm.

You forgot to account the square root.

sqrt(72/54) = 1.154

In your example, a Destro player would have an incoming 1000 damage increased to 1154. They would have their outgoing 1000 damage reduced to 866.

Because we are avoiding the other realms PVE zone lock blob, we are punished??
