Let's be honest: siege as a mechanic has always been dead. The few that have been carried out over the many years (including the 2D Haven) were plagued with bugs and exploits. Every other instance of assaulting another village has been raiding via bugs and exploits.
Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.

It takes more than just str and rng to get top gear.
Sorry I just don't see small groups catching up to big groups in gear even if a stat catch up is added.

The alternative is a stale world where no one can enter the world domination scene unless they join an established faction. My idea also doesn't instantly push you near the top. There is still effort involved.

I think the 10% can be just an example. The idea is not so rigid that the value can't be changed. There is a lot of room for difference in opinion who should be considered the top in such a system.
Hence why I said I could see this at most 60% in my original statement

I don't get why they are putting work into updates like this:
New Implementations
-----------------------
  • Added "Troll Hide Ruffle", gilding.
  • Added stockpiles for everything, infinite capacity... or at least one for quince, capacity 30.
When there are huge problems in the game and it seems they are being ignored by the devs

You know CTRL-C then CTRL-V, swap the 3D model and boom, a new item. That way they can keep up with the weekly updates right?

The game would be more dynamic if the destruction of the opponents base was easier and there was less of a difference between the "titans" and the "peasants".
It would be another game though.

The real problem is how fast is the Q grind right now.

I guess I also forgot to mention that I don't get why would people play this game for PVP currently.

I play this game for the farming aspect, and design, and social one, but PVP... no way.

PVP Skill has 0 place in this game. Unlike the old ultima online or Rust these days.

And it's probably one of the biggest factor or me letting the game go after a couple months actually, being afraid that any dude that has twice my stats or more (not even talking about the QL difference) will OS me no matter what, cause he's probably running 20 flasks of water/breeded horses/knarr.

Because anything balance related can turn into a big project.
They are just about to finish a big project maybe then we will see more balance patches.

Not like it has been like this for a long time?
