Forum is being extremely tight-lipped about how descension is going to work and how and when it is coming into play. I am hoping that the loss of benefits is already occurring for people on vacation mode in ascension. But I doubt it. Realistically, I wouldn't expect anything until the beginning of the new year at the earliest. Anyway, that's just my thought on the subject.

So, someone enlighten me cause I'm still not exactly clear. Is there a limit in activity one realm can take against another? Or in other words, if I feel so inclined, will I be able to personally take someone down, without help from other ascended beings? If not, things will be terribly unfair to the non-alliance players. Ascension is supposed to be a one on one server, so alliances should not be given the advantage of descending people where a single person can't do the same.

As soon as you build an idiot proof system, somebody else builds a better idiot.

If it moves, kill it. If it doesn't move, kick it until it does move, and then kill it.

i like it..

the new enhancement...
desasced someone temporary.. really hurts, as he gets no ascended bonus
that "short" time could give benefits to those, who seeks for retaliation.. or revenge, anythin.

I don't know if someone suggested this before but I wont check the 29 pages again.

What if the number of attacks that can be made against your ascended realm is in inverse relation with the amount of DIFERENT players that are atacking you?. Something like this:

N = number of posible attacks angainst you
A = diferent players that attacked you in the last day
T = maximum number of attacks against you (in normal situation)

N = T * [ 1 - (A-1)/5 ]

with this a maximum of 5 diferenet players can attack you in 1 day and the more they are the less they can attack.

This way alliances wont be able to descend 1 players with team work.

really good.
but, I think that should depend on your rank and your power..
cuz, we are all diferent and i think the stronger the player is, the "N" number should be eincreased...
my opinion xd. just in case..

No offense but think about this: an update like this would make everyone immune to attacks, if they were smart. I know I would have all of the new ascendees in my alliance one attack turn attack each other in ascension until each of them had five different people attack them that day. Then for the rest of the day, they are immune to farming. No need to buy defense anymore. Woohoo!

I was not talking about regular attacks (the ones that make damage only in your physical realm), I ment the attacks that make damage in your ascended realm (the descension attacks) and the ecuation was only an example.

Well, it could also be players limited (diferent from 'one ot one') with the logic: more ppl trying to descend you = less descension attacks can be made against you.

So basicly this deascension is a thing to (how some players like to call it-reward us couse we play ascended server)reward some and to make others to play even if they dont like it or dont want to ...
So i could go and play only ascended and not touch my main account and all is well...but vice versa cant happen...O.K.
Only reason why did I ascend are weapons...no bonuses I care about,just weapons.Its hard to keep up with big guys with ascended weapons but its near to impossible to keep up with them with nonascended weapons.

Why dont we all get same weapons in main and Ill reascend myself in an instant and you rewardseeking guys can keep your bonuses where ever you like on what ever server you wish or want to play and Ill stick only to main...

If all you want from Ascended is the ascended race in main, you should have no problem with these changes: First you've probably only ascended once so you're going to lose only 2.38% of your stats when you go on vacation mode. Other ascended folks (the 5 ascended), will lose 10% or more of their stats so you will advance at least against them.

Second, to clear up any misconception folks out there might have, it's extremely difficult to play ascended without playing main; I should know.
