A suggested change to Keep and Resources

You must take into account the pug mentality of 20 people stood around 1 siege weapon waiting to get zerked

Hey mr wheeler it's really nice to see you communicating in this thread like this.

My suggestion: Implement a 3rd flag in the keeps, maybe in the outer area. Also the 1st and the 2nd flag need a higher distance to each other. So maybe 1st flag on the inner ground floor, 2nd flag on the inner 2nd floor and the 3rd flag on the outer. A good place would be the outer maingate, the small room over the maingate, 1st floor.

This changes would make it harder for unorganized zergs and choo-choo-guild-trains to take a keep. You would promote real communication between players.

How do you think about that @ZOS_BrianWheeler ?

Undefended, meaning just NPCs are there, a Keep was designed for 12-18 people to take over a period of about 10-12 minutes from first Siege down to last flag flipped. A Keep can house a lot more than that for battles between larger groups though.

Resources were for small groups, 2-4 players, and maybe 5 minutes at most.

flipped resources tonight with 2 players in less than 1 min, my vr2 templar healer and a random nb who just happened to be there. Have taken keeps with 6 people if no players defend in 5mins, all way too easy

I like the idea of small outposts that can be built on open areas. Much like forward camps. This would act like a forward camp for the guild that built it. You can upgrade these posts by adding stone and wood. Gaining npcs as they level up. It can be seiged and completely destroyed.
