Return of Reckoning

So I got the bug and decided to reinstall (again), after leaving the game some time ago. One of the issues I had was end game gearing from forts, people throwing keeps and forts to do cities, and cities really only hitting prime at unsustainable hours for a NA player. I think in total I was able to do maybe a few, but was still stuck trying to get invader in my mid 70s.

I love the changes to gearing up and tokens personally, I am sure there are those who don't but I do think its healthier for the game in the long run. I also enjoy the changes to the campaign mechanic, I think that is also a step in the right direction. Of course people will throw a zone here and there but the incentive to fight seems to be stronger.

That said, I am a little confused on the city counter, is it always a set time server wise? Every 2 days x hours etc?

As a casual NA player, I log on when I can, and I am pretty sure I dont "need" to do city sieges with the gearing change, but it would be nice.

Every 3 days, hour is weighted rng. Weighted by average % population logged at that hours over previous week or so. But so far it seems rng was more of a miss than hit and landed few cities that werent good for any part of the population.

Yeah, may need to throw out a couple time slots, I think 2 of them were like 7 am PST which would be early afternoon EU. Maybe that's Aussie prime time. Hard to cater to a world wide audience. I feel like Maybe the city baseline needs to switch to 2d instead of 3d.

If you are NA you will never see a city in your Primetime, sorry it is weighted to not cater to that time frame

makes you wonder why not just have a city siege once per week for NA prime time and EU prime time? :/

EDIT: Or once week EU prime time, next week NA prime time. I mean, we don't NEED to see city so much anymore due to the war crest changes.
If worried about no lifers doing x2 city siege a week give them an X days city siege debuff so they can't queue for the second siege. /shrug

this sounds like a good idea.
