Who needs delta nonsense when you have a bow

Also learn to Parry, it'll wreck 1UA alts pretty hard if they're not in steel

Also comments like this make me know that you're too unfamiliar with the way combat/pvp functions to make any actually valid commentary on the matter.

And how does "titans being a thing" make the argument invalid? Yes, characters get stronger, but they were never impossible to kill, just harder to kill.

With capping as hard as you want players have 2 options. Invest all your effort into making 1 strong character or into making many weak characters. 1 strong character would lose to many weak characters, and losing any of the weak characters is really no lose. You're literally arguing to make alt armies worse than ever before.

Two such alts are not enough to wear down defences, and getting three plus people to get in synchronized hits on a target takes a lot of coordination, ie player skill. Getting surrounded by alts and tanking them is mostly just character stats, not much player skill involved.

They're enough to constantly wear down your defense so you can't attack or do anything else. Also, when all it takes is getting rage and the combat discoveries you need in order to be ready to PvP, they'll be a lot more than 2 alts attacking you.

No, the tower soaks 60, while the brickwall soaks 70.

Can I break the brickwall by myself with 4900 str?

Certainly open intrigue.

I would expect no less, and I for one would not keep my gates open until the most obvious consequences have been hashed out. ^^

I wanna see your village on the map. (for trade, I'm peaceful)

Would like to see Jorb/Loftar comment on this.

Are Brick walls still not breakable by hand no matter your strength? I guess that question also applies to towers if people are considering putting them in corners in place of BW for asthetics.

will destroying cellar doors make it in anytime soon? also would destroying them make a new cellar with walls or lead to the same area from before?

Tough one, unfortunately. We looked at this, but it was too much effort to implement at present.

Are you sure you can't prioritize it? I built my cellar door in the wrong color and it is terribly grating. I think that everyone agrees that kingdoms and combat fixes can wait for a bit.

Lol, but .... I ended up with this monstrosity which I'm finding it incredibly hard to live with, I avoid even going in there because of it ....
