Anyway seems no answers are incoming for the big questions probably because jorb and loftar aren't 100% what they are going to do about it. Either that or they don't want us grabbing the pitchforks until they can deliver some sweetening the deal info to take out the bitterness.

I think the reasonable position to take is largely our own, namely that everything is subject to change if it doesn't pan out as expected.

Inheritance has significantly reduced meaning if you don't get to keep your base, so, yes, I would imagine inheritors starting by their their old hearth.

@loftar Since no one else is asking directly. Is the oath issue intentional or not?

If you're talking about current haven oathing not working, I can answer this one for you. Nope, a crashing bug was found and as a result of the fix oathing was broken. I mentioned this to loftar on the haven IRC and according to him the fix for this issue will be applied in the next server reboot.

This defeats all purpose of the whole wilderness spawning in the viewpoint of making it more difficult for alting. As long as your alt army haven't reached a centralized zone your crippled. But thats just a matter of time till you have enough alts where you need them. Then its back to the same old. Alt collecting will be another grindy element where you need to go collect enough alts. People might even start trading alts as a currency.

I get the point of trying to force everyone to solo a while but honestly I did that W6 and thought it was ok. W7 I started out with bunch of friends and suffice to say, single player games are made for that and this is supposed to be an mmo.
