then do the same for the whole alliance .. so 5mil

all put it in at the last min before the border changes .. bang u get a town.

and u just keep putting it in at the last min before the border changes for a big chunk.

i mean a guild of one could own cavalon for a few hours ..

if he saves up long enough as he wont get taxed.

So i think it needs a Cap, maybe what holymasamune sugested

The only long-term advantage I see to a spike is that it gets you up to the point you can remain at (the point where you gain as much as you lose each day) faster. But if you go over, you won't be able to farm enough to keep yourself at that level.

So if you overreach with a spike, that will get you a town for a few days until either someone hits with a bigger spike or you decay below the level your alliance can sustain. And if your somehow figure out something crafty with the spikes to stay above the alliances that farm more faction per day, they will figure it out and still beat you once your faction decays.

So what is the actual harm or the towns changing hands a lot more than they currently do ?

Though the other option is to have no actual cap, but your faction over a certain point suffers decay back to that cap, so that such spikes aren't possible.

Sounds great to me, I HATE the cap, I see no benefits from it but to force people afk and to stop what their doing. Maybe to help prevent from leechers and such but what are they gonna do with balth points >.> too many times ive overdone the balth faction and then when i need it i run out, hardly fair.

Actually guys/gals this prevent leechers from taking advantage of the system. Having to leave the AB map every 10,000 points discourages people who would leech 24/7. They make it so that you have to leave the area once in a while. Thus bot-proof.

This should be looked into.

Thanks for raising this stiffy!

/signed

Although I guess the request to raise the cap on Balths faction does lose it point a bit today - but the whole 10k on Luxon/Kurzy should be raised - if in no other way as you advance in the ranks!

If the faction cap was meant to help prevent leeching, then it has ran its course with the /report system in affect, even though that system still has it's flaws. It now needs to be changed.

/signed. Or at least raise it substantially.

/sign, it seems like a good idea.

Past rank 2, I'd say increase the cap by 1,000 faction. So, by rank 12, you can have up to 20,000 as your limitation.

Unlimited only calls for bothersome annoyances. I have 29,000 on my Balthazar cap. That's fine and dandy. 10,000 serves me fine in the Alliance Battles. If anything, offer a guy to give Tournament Tokens and Zaishen keys in the Alliance Battle outposts.

Unless one of these changes come into play, I shall remain,

Balth faction only had a cap so you couldn't stockpile it before a new game came out and unlock everything within minutes. I see no reason for this to keep this cap with no new games being released.

The luxon/kurzick faction has a cap to manage the town ownership so a guild cannot stockpile and then donate all at once. I think they should double the cap rather than remove it.

/signed for cap increase

Removing the cap would lead have too many people abusing it.

draxynnic · Aug 13, 2008, 05:57 AM // 05:57

One thing that people going through the Kurz/Lux territories for the first time might appreciate is raising the cap by at least a thousand or so - that way, they can make the ten thousand required to befriend each side without necassarily losing any excess.

MithranArkanere · Aug 13, 2008, 04:57 PM // 16:57

I don't mid for Balthazar faction, but since PvP are grind titles, they would need another reward to compensate.

For Factions Luxon/Kurzick faction, sorry, but not. Maybe an increase in the cap, but for all, not related to titles, and not too much. Maybe to 20k or 50k.
