A word or two (okay maybe a little) on outposts

To start with when Kami first took the outposts Yaka did not actually play. However since his return in region and around chat people love to make references to alts. "As a last word. It appear now a days that a faction's success in this game is determined by the amount of alts they can run." This statement says to me that a faction, such as the Kami faction, primarily wins due to alts. If I took it the wrong way then I'm sorry.

Marceline if you would have read my post properly I said that I did not want to delve into that matter here. Binarabi has sent me an in-game mail. Stop trying to create drama and derail this topic please.

I believe with my generalized talking at the start I didn't make myself very clear so here it is, put very simply:

There are a lot of people who complain that Kami are stronger, due to whatever reason that may be, they think the game is unbalanced and many have quit. I want to make it clear to those people that if they don't want to put any effort into outpost wars then they shouldn't expect to own any outposts. Outposts are a PvP mechanism and it's as simple as that.

For those willing to put in the effort there are many easy solutions. Some do say it is hard, but there is no mountain to climb and it can be done very easily and very quickly. In case you don't believe me I have put a very simple solution to winning an outpost below, concerning level 200 launchers.

It takes around 1 or 2 days to level rifle to level 150. It then takes around a week max to reach level 200 launcher, a bit longer for craft as well. People may say: What use is a level 200 launcher? Firstly a launcher is to be used on healers in a pod and you therefore get an instant hit as they are casting. As for the DPS:

(Some of this may be wrong but you get the general idea)
Level 200 launcher = 1356 on 6 people (every shot)
6x Level 200 launcher = 8136 on 6 people (every shot if they hit the same person)
Assuming, in a perfect world, all launchers hit the same target at the same time, 6 level 200 launchers would kill 6 master easily with every shot fired. Even if only 3 launchers hit the same mage at 4068 damage they would still drop. This shows the sheer damage of launchers, even at level 200, and how they can be used to great affect.

(You may ask why I posted such a thing. I don't want to sound patronizing although unfortunately I probably do. All I want to prove is that the bar is not raised too high and it is still very possible to win.)

The point I am making is that the workload that is required to claim a Kami outpost is well within peoples grasp. If people don't want to put in the effort then fine, but stop complaining and whining about:
  • The lack of outpost wars
  • The outpost ownership
  • The fact the kami are stronger
There are many ways in which to take back the outposts, I have just listed a simple one. We are not trying to force the Karavan to PvP. It is our simple response when people start complaining. I am not trying to address every situation of every player leaving ryzom, just put forward my views on outposts.
