Drop defence

[Dmonix]

The whole question of asking for time intervals to be shortened and shortened isn't the problem with descention attacks, having Defence power + Defence skill + Reflection + abosrbtion + constitution favours the defender far too heavily resulting in

a) attacker almost always taking more damage
b) descention pretty much impossible after level 710

I ask that something be removed, not reflection because that is an ability to help the defender, but possibly absorbtion/constitution

[Colos]

Those stats are fine, though admin should halven their effectiveness. I mean, so you might actually have to put some effort into your account to become.. erm... 'undescendable'.

Now, having def-stats on the lame levels of 500 will reduce the incoming damage to 31.5%, which is just... wrong. Halven the effectiveness of those stats, and that number will go up to some 59ish %.

Just my two cents...

Not that admin may do any update on this server in the near future...

Got a little worried when I saw "Drop defence". Thought for a moment the suggestion was to scrap defence power lol.

there's an admin???

[schuesseled]

No.

Im not saying de-ascension isnt broken, just that there is no reason to play ascended anymore since admin broke it for those of us who bothered to do well before the updates, so I dont see why de-ascension should be made effective now forcing us to play catch up after we've left it too rot.

[[BoT] Jason]

ascended should be updated to the point where people are to scared to not play their account...

Not quite that extreme an update, remember people were forced to play ascended with their main account, it's not like quantum where you can choose and if you do nothing about it it affects your main.

I agree with Colos, lower the effectiveness, or at least take away some of the % defence stats, so that you no longer defence a % of what comes in rather attack versus defence + reflection or something

[[BoT] Jason]

in my opinion our main problem is that the ascended admin had grown to the point where this job here means nothing to him. kinda like when you are at 300mil army you start choosing your raid targets wisely.

so i see no point for this section

[Lore]

correct me if I am wrong, but no matter what you can only do 1/3 damage to anyone in a single attack right?

so whats it matter if defensive stats are that good? max you can do is still 1/3rd?

I'm tired, I'll revisit this tomorrow.

[Colos]

The 1/3 rule is ok and fine, without that, one could descend 6-7 accounts a day. Which wouldn't be not nice at all.

The problem is, due to over-effectiveness of absorbtion, rep and stuff, you can hardly cause this maximum damage of 1/3 of LF reserves to the majority of the server.

Ah, ok. I got it now.

Amazing what alittle sleep will do for a person.

[Ancient_one]

I believe that another skill be added where it adds like 10% for every 100 levels you have, so if someone manages to get to 1000 their ToC would be 100% stronger.

Nah he doesnt need to lower anything all he has to do is change it from 1/3 to 40% damage taken, that would make a huge difference.

The 1/3rd rule doesn't come into play at all with the top accounts, that's not where the problem is, it's the defensive capacity of the top accounts is so high that for a lot of the accounts now the top ToC doesn't even break the Life Force and if it does it does an insignificant amount of damage to the reserves of the person being assaulted

Problem is: you don't even need a top account for that.
