The people at FULL Tradition are the rapists and murderers anyway. The only people on full change are the peaceful farmers.

The murderers and rapists are some of the most well developed in the entire game. Others may want to correct me but I think 100 numem is fairly easy too for the large cities (never bothered much with the prayers myself). They literally have cupboards of everything. Even the rare stuff so sacrificing it isn't an issue. If they don't, then rest assured they'll get it.

So I grind an alt to full Tradition (not hard, just have to keep it logged in and AFK for a day or two). Run around town getting all the things required to get 100 numen (Again not hard because I'm using a town that has everything - think Sodom, AD, possibly some other villages). Go on a rampage raping and murdering, end up dead through summoning. Sacrifice your alt to get your main back, come back and summon the guy who killed you. Then go back to raping and murdering (while you get another alt up to full tradition).

Sounds like fun!

If you succeed, you still cannot resurrect again. This is like a one time thing to get your most valuable character back.

So all the rangers who have nobley hunted down and risked their own lives to kill the rapists and murderers have to go through some stupid maze to get their Ranger back? Sounds dumb.

Damn. Wish I'd seen this first.

It would be too imbalanced. Whatever you intended it to fix, it would only mean even more so that the killers who plot and plan and run 15 alt accounts have all the advantages while all those nub farmers still end up dead. Only more so.

100 Numen is close to impossible. Not that I want to defend this idea (it is still horrible), but it will become just too hard at a certain point to have everything your ancestors may desire at q80 or 90. I was usually starting to get into trouble at 50 or 60 numen and that was at the end of world 3, when we had most things at awesome q.
