Penalty for destroying a Questgiver

Post by D0fuz15 »

There are no plans on some kind of penalty for destroy a Questgiver?, im not saying i want them to lose 30k of LP and XP, or a giant Ent in front of them to smash their heads. But maybe a debuff that makes the "Ancestral spirits of the Forest" get angry with them.
Now you chip speed its reduced by 50% for X time, or your chop speed its reduced, etc etc etc. This way at least its harder for them to destroy a questgiver (applies the debuff after 1 hit or 3 (?))
Good idea!

This can only be discussed if we're getting all the quest givers marked on the minimap, which in itself has it pros and cons.
But if things stay as they are now, people with no evil intentions can destroy questgivers by accident and it's hardly fair to punish them for it.

There's been a few threads since this was introduced. So far neither jorb nor loftar have been convinced this is a thing that must be fixed (or if one has, not enough to convince the other).

obviously. That's why they let bucket bots be a thing all those years.

Make the quest givers have yet another option even if you have no quests to it. Like "Pay respects" or anything, so when we try to remove it to flatten land we know it's an useful item others will be unhappy if we destroy. Not that it would really matter when it's in the middle of my claim and it's gonna get claimed and palisaded anyway if alive, but...

As a rule of thumb, everything that makes life easyer and less boring/grinding for players is a great idea. Everything that makes the game harder is crap coming from sadistic tendencies of Jorbtar helped by the few players with the same kind of disorders.
