Claims should only gain presence when the character is on it

[DDDsDD999]

Because you can't have group claims, except through personal claims.

Ever heard of villages? Sure you did, but that wouldn't make a nice fallacy in your attempt to shoot this down.

You're against this as you're to lazy to visit a claim ~ once a month, you should be ashamed of yourselves.

You can't be oathed to multiple villages. I've suggested it before already.

Your suggested "fix" is inherently flawed and just brings another "alt-away the tedium" mechanic that doesn't really fix anything except screwing the noobs that don't know any better.

i agree with this, its not like claim are super hard to maintain just should not be able to maintain if have not been there for months

And if this was changed? Would this still be a good idea? I don't think so, and I don't think you'd see it any other way either if I've gotten to know you from the forums here at all. People would still use an otherwise useless alt to do the same thing just for convenience.

The whole "LP bank" was gotten rid of, which made overly massive, useless claims pointless. Now if a claim is massive, it ideally serves a point, so if a player wants to maintain it, I guess that's their right (unless devs want to flat restrict claim size). Additional claims are a great addition, and they need to be maintained, so they do go away.

I'd like to see some statistics about how much this is being abused before I'd even say that such a mechanic needs to be implemented. Compare it to how much the mechanic is being put to some reasonable use and not just trying to block the rest of the world from enjoying the open-worldness of the game.

In my mind, if someone see's a claim this is utterly useless that they think someone is not checking or filling frequently... Siege the damn thing down, the option for it exists in the game. I'm not sure why we should add a burden of tedium and boredom to everything else.

I quite agree. I know not everyone is willing to leave vandal scents, but if the claim really isn't checked often, then there's little risk, and even a wrecking ball would be safe (because people aren't willing to leave vandal scents...).

the risk is a group finding you while you have red handed and fuck your shit up lol.

If you hate claims so much, just make a palisade with a claim + alt with vandalism. Any ways, if you are spotted, then the claim is being used.

you mean you've never tracked random scents just for the lolz? uh...me neither

exactly lol i doubt the times i got chased was the owners

From what I remember, at this stage of the game anyone who can chase sits in 4 walls eating cheese or fighting other factions. It might be someone with minor character/experience or koreans chasing, but they're easy to kite.
