Expect the worst 1. Is January still the accepted date of release? 2. Any update on skills/books decision? 😕 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

January would make sense for release/asset wipe in that timeframe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cetric de Cornusiac Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 What is the sense of a wipe anyway? Somebody give some reasons for this, "equal chances for everybody"? That is the only reason I can think of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion without @adminsaying hopefully in this or that time scale you can't make that assessment. Norfolk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HachiRoku Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 It's a lot to expect from us to grind books back. I am pretty sure it was assured to us that we won't need to grind again. I know I don't have the energy and time for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Percival Merewether Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 @Ink has also promised that we'd keep our ship knowledge (books), but with the changes annoucned by admin - I'm beginning to doubt that we will keep this system. It's all good though, we're only testing now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming anything else is void - read - unless skill book changes. We had plenty of mechanics that ended in "grinding" becoming obsolete and thus removed and replace by something else. No idea why my personal choice became your argument. Have a good day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palatinose Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 (edited) Personally I would like to see the crafting levels wiped. It ensures national (or clan based or whatever it will be) efforts at the beginning after the wipe. Wipe the books, but the hello kittying grind was (and still is for new ships/new meta ships) the most annoying thing in this game.

Hethwill Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 I'd like to see rank tied up with the access to admiralty resources. So knowledge, books, shipyard refits, etc all is dependent on Rank. If we are all Rear Admirals, so be it. We have access to all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, if you grind the slot on a Bucentaure, you unlock also the Pavel and the Christian VII. And the amount of pve farming to get the rare books is insane because it depends on rng. For what reason? They are different ships right? The books are currently not at all a problem as Epic Events drop those rare books like crazy.

And in epic events, you must have the luck to loot the book you are looking for. Well do 10 Epics with the same 6 guys and I'm pretty sure you will get three AoS, Gunnery Enc. and BofR out of it.

Did you not read what ink said? It was just linked. All but the books subject to change are safe. You know I argue with facts more than anyone. If u said Davos said it they did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HachiRoku Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Anyhow... All I know for certain is that I will never grind a ship again nor will I get the 3 books again. If that is wiped I'm done. 4000 hours in naval action and I went to effort to ask devs before I got 3 books. I don't have time for another 1000 hour grind. That's a discrace imo. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HachiRoku Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 52 minutes ago, RKY said: Let's be honest for a second, even if everything was deleted, it wouldn't change much our everyday life in game. We would still only go pvp even without ship knowledge like we do atm on 3rd rate. Ships you really use will be grinded back in no time. As for books, well, I know for a fact I would not grind, just buy it for pvp marks. Price would be higher because everyone would want them. Those grinding NPC would mostly be beginners learning the game or those casual we already have and it would help them sustain a certain level of finances. I don't play as much anymore. Maybe 10 hours a week. You won't be able to buy books with marks for at least 6 month after wipe. Don't forget art of cargo and notes on best dropped way more often after last wipe. It will take alot longer for us to get mods again. I cannot accept hundreds of hours of my life being wasted after ink told us our books were safe.
