Server Merge & Alliance

What happens with alliance points and etc.
I know a few people are trying last min rush here on HW to get their exarch and such.

Myself, I'm assuming it all gets reset

  • I TOLD YOU! I told all of you that the servers where going to merge it was also already suspected to do so several months ago even before I said it. But NOOOOOO I got my hand slapped by the cat and his claws. -humph- I'm not stupid.
  • Are you sure they're not trying to last min rush because alliance is going away? It could be them trying to get something cool before the system goes away and they can't get the masks anymore.
  • To be true I think the alliance is going away because it got away from it's original build and implementation. When it took away the concept of ultimate control ie a dictator concept over all..... that is when it started to fall apart. pvp was no longer pvp after that. it was see and kill for sport. Back then it was a guild effort and it was fun for all. I doubt anyone could argue that. Take note that it's your pvp servers 3 of them that are getting merged. nolice that pve servers are doing just fine.

    BHS had all the worldwide publishers do server merges right now in anticipation of the new 30-person raid and guild PvP content. If it weren't for that, EME may well have just left things as they were.
  • I'm not sure where it's posted but I remember seeing it recently. Endgame pvp is pretty much just queue for bg and duel anymore. Because apparantly pking is bannable, gvg is broken, alliance is not how it was imagined, all that's left is queue for bg because pve people play it too and duel because it's like a fight club.

    OWPvP becomes bannable when it crosses the line of harassing, and I don't mean those times when some players decide to KoS each other for a while, I mean people deliberately trying to interfere with someone else's gameplay.
  • That's literally what i've seen in every other mmo that does OWPvP which is why i put it as a detriment, I used to play on pvp servers in other games just because the excitement of having some random person coming to fight me while i farmed things was great.. Though I suppose with a smaller playerbase with mainly maxed people it could get frustrating :( but other things than banning could have been used.

    Well, that's not what was meant by "harassing." You can definitely go around PKing people if you want, and there's no problem with it. But if you were stalking someone, following them everywhere they go on every channel, and just trying to kill that one person over and over to make it so they can't do anything -- that'd be crossing the line. But "having some random person coming to fight [you]" is entirely okay, and you'd never be banned for that alone on a PvP server. (During Steam launch they dealt some punishment to high-level players who were griefing low-level players, but that was really limited to that time. Even that is generally allowed.)
  • I haven't played on pvp servers here, tera's got a lot of drama.. but I was just going off of what i read in people's posts as i said above. It's been said a lot about pking being bannable and that (even if it's just a rumor) really hurts the pvp experience as a whole.
    No one would like me if i was still "crazy pvp elitist Coffee" so i'll leave it at this, I hope that what they make endgame pvp more than just bgs and duels, fix OWPvP (or the reputation of it) and make Guild pvp something enjoyable.

    Please guys, I only asked a simple question that wasn't listed in the server merge FAQs.

    I dont think we would know until then if the all points will reset or not with the sever merge i think we might find out when it happen or if someone form eme point it out with the alliance points ect but here what i think it might reset go as its not in the FAQS.

    I think i had read somehere that aiance will be remove soon to idk where but will edit more when i found that post.
    I look like when we get guild syestem revamp anything with alliance system will not be available anymore this is what i had find also and this can also be why people are rushing to get the points as well.
  • Yes..That's exactly why people are rushing to get it..and why I'm here asking how the merge will affect these people too.
