A couple of comments here...Aslak wrote:Hello,
I am pretty new and pretty small still, so I say little to the high power pvp situation, but even I got the feeling the evil side currently is by far too dominant.
What strikes me most are the extremly strong and deadly undeads. They alone are able to kill most players I have seen so far and the leader of the Taniels (not sure how strong he really is) took about half an hour just to dispose a single revenant, with charging in and fleeing bleeding heavily a second later for about 50 times.
I am have no idea how much work it is to raise such powerful things, but seeing how often strong undeads are populating the streets, I think it cannot be that much work. In my opinion, it should be. If you raise such an undead, you would want to keep it to yourself, not just place it somewhere to wait for easy prey. Either those undeads should loose their unholy magic over time (if not close to their creator) and become weaker until they finally die (again) or it should be so much work to create them that they won't be wasted like this. The unicorns I think will have to be trained, so you will not see used them as a meatshield or to block a road just because they can. It would be too much work to get them back to old strength.
I think the undeads on streets, killing people without even a slight danger for the Satho himself, are the worst thing, at least from a newbie sight.
Revenants are not meant to be taken down singlehandedly, at least not in a short time and not by everyone. I'd seen them die quite fast. Revenants stay until reboot or they get killed. Creating a revenant takes more time than building a crusader tower. And a manned tower can insta-kill people, haven't seen that by a lone revenant. And a revenants guards will vanish with time, see below.
Normal undeads will crumble after a certain amount of time has passed, regardless whether their creator is near or not around anymore. When their time is up, any room update will destroy them, without a fight starting.
Normally there are signs that a battle has taken place. Running around without regards after that happened can lead to death. Look ahead before you walk and apart from indoor rooms you can be almost100% safe from undeads. A hunting zombie is the only undead that you cannot anticipate this way.
