MASTER LEVEL CREDIT CHANGES
In our continuing effort to address player concerns with how Master Level credit is awarded, we are making some changes. These changes are intended to help those players who might miss battlegroup credit for a specific ML due to going linkdead or being slightly out of range. We apologize for the complexity of these rules, but once in use, we are sure they will greatly enhance your gameplay.
There are two new commands, available only to BG leaders:
- /bg credit will display credit for Battlegroup Master Level encounters that have been completed within the last 10 minutes. This command can be used by the Battlegroup leader without restriction.
- /bg grantcredit [MasterLevel] [PlayerName] will allow you to grant credit for completed Master Level steps, with the following restrictions:
- You may only grant credit for steps completed within the last 10 minutes.
- You must be within 1000 units of the player you are granting credit to.
- The ML step must be a battlegroup-enabled step.
- You must be within 2000 units of 75% of your battlegroup members (in other words, the majority of your BG must be there with you).
- You may only grant credit to up to half the number of players that received credit for that step correctly .
- You may not grant credit for a step that the player could not possibly receive due to dungeon restrictions (for example, players must be at least ML8 to receive ML9 credit)
- Example usage: /bg grantcredit 1.9 Player-ClusteredServer
NEW TITLE SYSTEM
As stated on March 17th, we have expanded on the existing titles players now receive for realm ranks by incorporating more choices available to players based upon their achievements, both in our new RvR Mission system and in normal RvR activities. Players will be able to pick from a selection of earned titles and choose which they would like to display for others to see.
- Players will earn and increase their titles through various activities in the game. For example, a player can receive a new title based upon how many towers that player has participated in capturing.
- In order for players to alter their titles, we have added a new title button to the player sheet, on the stats attributes panel. (We have also added a "/title" command to toggle the window.) In this window, players may select the title they'd like to have display above the character's head.
- Players may only have one title displayed at a time. However, titles may be changed by the player at any time.
- Currently, titles only appear to realm friendly players.
