New RvR Task - Phoenix Freeshard

I like the idea of the New added task to the RvR task, however I feel it is super close together in terms of the zone. I think all it is currently doing is letting those with the most people (zerg if you will) win that specific task. I would suggest spreading out the capture zones so it is more difficult to capture. This would promote small man/8man to enjoy running to and from each location. It would split up the zerg a bit. It also would make the realm work harder and together to organize what points to capture. That is just my two cents. Thanks for the new ideas, and keeping RVR fresh!

The new Domination task could be spread across Breifine, Gorge, and Mount Collory. Then the next Domination task could be in Ygdaa, Uppland, and Jamtland.

The tasks should probably take place in multiple adjacent zones instead of always just one. Too easy for the zerg to steamroll the whole task.

The actual Breifine CTF task is really bad imo. It just gives Hib more advantages. If it doesnt change to other Realm middle zones, it will really just makes Hib much op overall.

I still feel that this is making specific realms camp mile gates keeping the other realms from doing these events. I think that was the purpose of this particular event is to kind of prevent it, but I don't think its really helping.

Yes. Albs and Mids cancel each other out in Emain. Hib can go to Breifine without facing many enemies. At the same time, Hib usually owns the majority of the keeps in Breifine.

This would be the same for all realms. Hence, there has to be some advantage for attacker realms. For example, there could be a larger cooldown for changing the flag domination for the defending realm, but a much fast swap for the attacker realms. Of course, that would be only a very small adjustment and I don't know if it would be sufficient to balance the defender advantage ... But some things like these probably need to happen.

We will add probably by today Jamtland as additional zone for Domination. Pennine would be the alb one, but yeah, Pennine. I guess you get my point. So we are thinking of maybe adding HW as Domination zone or we may come up with an alternative solution.

Btw, as I heard a lot of complains and rumors. We didnt chose Breifine as test-zone for Domination to prefer Hibs and also we didnt set the keep-tasks to be only hib ones for 24h for the same reason. The only reason was to test domination and to test how the RvR-situation would develop if we set tasks to one realm for a time. We are still adjusting and rethinking things, so please be patience and give us the time to do so properly.

We are always interested in reasonable suggestions but calling out that we are prefering one realm or that the task is "dumb" is just wrong and doesnt help at all.

Moving it to HW would give albs the disadvantage being the pk zone..albs would still have to run from snow or cs.
Maybe thin out a few mob camps and find some flat areas in pen. Call it king of the mountain lol.

If you did HW, you would have to allow alb to port there. Otherwise it would screw Alb big time.

Pennine is good, some more non linear battle in non linear terrain makes more fun

Even without the rvr task, I don't think anyone would miss most of the mobs in Pennine
