"From siege machines"

You can bash flowers with your hands...

Have fun trying to hand bash something with more soak than is possible to overcome because of the stat cap.

Confirmed DIS already building towers.

I can't beat down brick walls by hand anymore. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH. WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

[*] You can now apply brimstone to a Village Idol or Claim Pole, to restore its shield by 250 points. You may buffer/apply up to five units of brimstone at once, and the Idol/Pole then "restores" one unit every 30 minutes. So you may apply brimstone once every 30 minutes, or five times every 2.5 hours, or whatever in between. Newly built villages count as having a buffer of 20 brimstone to work through, and they can thus only be boosted after eight hours.

You made this?

I made this.

I don't like the repairing shield with brimstone

It should be noted that both the brimstone-to-shield ratio and the charge rate over time are fairly crappy. It can't really be used to counter an active siege; only to recharge a bit faster between repeated attempts.

this update is far from good, notifying someone that theyre being sieged is dumb as fuck.

u need to fix the fact that when people are being sieged they altvault everything of value, break everything they cant altvault, and log off their chars until its over. we sieged some koreans who prob werent checking their shield so they didnt have much time to altvault/break everything but they got most of the shit alt vaulted and saw cupboards full of dropped shit all over the ground when we got in. now they will be notified and can do this much faster its fukn dumb m8.

theres almost no point in sieging other than making someone move from a location (which takes far more than just sieging them) or posting that you sieged them on the forums

I disagree. That they are being sieged is readily available knowledge, and I don't think obfuscation of the circumstance should be much of a thing.

All we have done is saved you the trouble of building the "Check-shield-bot".

You're missing the point. It is LITERALLY (as in literally literally) impossible to break into a base that is walled with stone towers. Siege engines cannot hurt them, nor bring down their claim shield and they are too hard to be bashed by hand. Fucktard.

Even as a city under siege, I concur with the gentlemen here insisting that the brimstone buffer to rebuild village shields are unnecessary.

How so?

Allow me to direct you to my solution to the problem. Alt-vaulting is cancer, death to the infidels. Add stuff to the game besides siege so I can get back to quality grindan.

Regardless notifying them is inherently NOT THE PROBLEM. Alt-Vaulting is.

If it's unnecessary, don't do it. Nobody benefits from it a crazy amount. It's a time-buyer, an active method of defense beyond sallying out and getting raped.

Please motivate your assertions.
