Claiming Resources

Tendrielle

So with next update, capturing resources will be more rewarding, good!
I just realized that nobody is claiming resources anymore. Here is my solution, how to make good use of them:
1. Only Guilds with 50+ members have the right to claim keeps (and pve merchants)
2. Smaller Guilds can only claim resources
3. Any guild size (or at least 10+ members) can have a store which is allowed to sell on its resource merchant.

This way there would be good use for resources, and it will be an interesting experience to shop at these little stores.

Haderus

...is a resource-capturing only rewarding points campaign. I am not on Haderus, so I do not know. Does this help so people tend to claim resources at all?

yeah usually before scoring there will be a massive flip of resources; I would say a lot of people don't play the Haderus objective all the time anymore.

Thanks, yet I guess I expressed myself badly. With capturing I mean turning the resource to your faction, with claiming, well, getting its merchant for your guild.

I think the guild claim system in its current state is worthless... Claiming a keep or resource should have some sort of cost/benefit. Claim the resource upgrade its defenses at a cost.. maintain that and it becomes much harder to capture depending on resources invested and time spent defending... Currently keeps are flipped back and forth several times a day on some servers.With no real reward for defense. Give real benefits to keep and resource defense and guilds might find it worth the maintenance of a keep or resource... possibly some way to boost your guild trader ... maybe some sort of guild benefit or boost dependent upon how long the guild can maintain defense of keep or resource.

That's another good idea I think. The danger with the next patch maybe is that flipping becomes too rewarding, so objectives could be flipped back and forth all the time.
