Changing durability of frig. Consti should have only 1 dura!

[PIerrick de Badas]

The durability system has been change and we hear people screaming like pigs about durability issue and that noone were able to be inr ated ships again.

As we notice, the durability system change doesn't have empty the seas. It doesn't have change many things expect that it forces us to craft new ships again after each pb and it's what was needed.

Now, i have a big concern in regard of frigates. What have been done for rated ships (1th rate=1dura, 2dura rate=2dura, 3 dura rate=3 dura) should be made for frigates too.

We see too many guys in consti. They don't fear to loose it as it's a multiple dura ship.

 

I suggest devs to decrease consti dura to 1, trinco dura to 2, frig/bp/essex to 3

 

It will give diversity into the open sea and force people to think before sail.

 

Thanks you for your attention

We see to many cars on our roads, which is toxic to atmosphere. Lets kill humans.

I believe the market is still flooded with cheap 5 dura ships which noone is afraid to loose 4 times.

Same for The SoLs.

 

After EA we will see how duras will affect players' will to pvp in expensive ships.

I also hope prices will rocket skyhigh. ATM Shipbuilding is too cheap for even the biggest ships.

Change will come no matter what.

would love to ee ressources improve by x3 or x4 to build a ship. Atm i ve ressources to craft 10-20 victory..just need timelabor. Even gold is not taken in our port due of spawn of ressources... Price has to improve and dura to decrease

Someone just forgot why skirmish was popular in Potbs, as i see.

Part of the problem are all the free redeemables

Yes! Connie should definitely be 1 dura. Then she doesn't need to be nerfed, and no one has to doomsay about eco balancing.

By this logic the mercury and snow might be in the same category as they are also top end ships in their "division" so to speak.

[Lord Vicious]

system is fine as it is now.

 

just prices should be higher.  in both production cost/time to build

Sarcasm on:

 

Yes, i wanna hear you scream when i trash your 1 dura live oak connie with 7 golden modules in my freshly bought 0 module surprise. That will surely increase the pvp we see on the open world. Pleas write a forum post and whine when you quit the game in furious anger because you just lost precious 10 months of pve farming to a 1vs1 or even better, a gank when ppl jump you invisible from the nearest port. Oh it will be glorious! 

 

-end of sarcasm.

 

start of reason:

 

The devs need to make a decisive decision here. The less duras ships have, the less they will be used in pvp. The more time it takes to get the ships, the less ppl will use it in pvp. It's like having a perfect e-type jaguar in your garage forever because you are too scared to drive it. You go, look at it every day in your garage, dream about how awesome it would be to actually drive it, and then put the keys back to the safe. I dont know what the perfect solution will be, but during the past days we've had a huge amount of trashfleet fights, where noone cared about durability loss, and it was the most fun ive had since the last prewipe amageddon days. Once ppl stop caring about their ships, fights increase rapidly. And NO, dear stats from admin, a "Battle" on the stats sheet is not a real "Fight".
