Need More IoD Channels
Topic.
TLDR; there are not enough channels for the number of people doing mid tier IoD.
I'm not one of those people that is like "Ahhh QQ I NEED A CHANNEL TO MYSELF!!1!!!!!1" but it's more than annoying when you're killing bams for the past few minutes and a random person (or three) comes and starts killing yours/hitting the one right next to it. I can handle 2 or maybe 3 people per channel on something like Teraliths because they're split by that tree and by the path, but people often come in and don't have boundaries and start killing the same BAMs I'm on, lol. If I try to go to the far side and hit the other "half" of the BAMs they follow and kill those too. if most people aren't willing to share and won't be respectful, we need more channels. When I try to find a new channel all 8 are full and I'm not a douche that likes to hit BAMs other people are working on
Again, it'd be tolerable if it were two people, and I've had plenty of times where I've peacefully done BAMs alongside someone else without either of us being passive aggressive or annoyed about it, but when people want to dominate the entire channel/when there are 3+ people, it gets pretty terrible.
Don't be a d1ck. it's not difficult for most of us

There's no PvP allowed on IOD - I play on MT. You can technically GvG, but that solves like 1 person on 1 channel, and they have a 10 min warning or so, and it's more of a pain to do.
or do another bams, fangspans are more easy for somes clases, like sorcer or lancers
All they need is Elin
huehuehue x 2
Sadly I work 8 hours a day, have a boyfriend, and have a life. So it'd be nice if when I finally have time to play Tera, I can actually do stuff, lol. If I lived in my mom's basement maybe I could play during the morning or afternoon or stay up late when no one was on but sadly adult life sux m8
At least at the times I'm on there aren't. I have a feeling some servers have more open channels than others? I'm on Tempest Reach and usually there's only one open channel (or none). Gonna be way worse now that Kyra comes from IoD, altho considering the amount of complaints with the prizes maybe it won't be too much worse.
Yeah, same here. If I see the ground covered with motes/strongboxes and missing or currently spawning bams, I just move on. It's a little annoying to be sure, and people will do what they can to "take" them - I once had a gunner come on the channel i was on and he started to go for the ones I was killing. He'd leave a turret at one and HB at another, and the turret would hit one as soon as it respawned and he'd recall to the HB at the other one when it spawned so he could hit it immediately. It's kinda hilarious.
Makes me kinda wish that PvP was allowed on IoD and that I was on a PvP server :^)
