War of Conquest

With the change in the Patron system. It would be nice to as the Player remove Patron's from yourself.

Also as much as I hate to say it... I thought the Patron System was a good way to promote recruiting new players to the game. The new system dividing the xp seems that it punishes players for choosing a Patron who has more "followers." I agree that a change was needed however I think a different solution may be need to prevent the "Negative" but not have an exploitable positive?

Yeah, I'm not sure what the best solution to this is. There are possibilities like allowing each of a patron's followers to get 2% of the patron's XP, so long as they are each in different nations... but then, they can just unite those nations together later, so that doesn't solve it either. Another possibility would be to only allow a patron a max of say 10 followers, and each gets 1% of the patron's XP, so the worst it could be abused would be to gain +10% XP. But it seems to me that might be used a lot more for abuse than for its intended purpose of mutually-beneficial relationships between new and seasoned players.

So I don't know what would be a practical improvement to the current system. Any ideas are welcome.

Patron Bonus XP!

New System Thought

Patron's give/get X% (say 5 for the sake of this argument) Bonus XP Buff.
Account A
Account B
Account A is Account B's Patron
A Clicks and earns 1,000,000 xp
Account B gets the 50,000 xp buff (5%) applied to the account.
Account B under the Connect tab has a Patron XP Earned, Patron XP Used, and Patron XP Total.
Earned - How much is left
Used - How much used
Total - Total over all time

As account B clicks and earns xp. They Attack someone and get 200 xp for their click. They then use 200 xp of their "Patron XP" and gain it at that time.


How does this change?

Since the XP is not directly given for free if you have 1 or 5,000 patron's there isn't anything given FREE. Each account must click and EARN that xp.

If someone was to get 1 mil xp of bonus xp. they would still need to click 1 mil xp to get it totaling at 2mil xp.

This could also push to have new leader-boards for Most Used patron xp. which would promote people playing together on active accounts and not just having tons of accounts to get hte bonuses.

Also since the XP would come as a secondary gain. You would not have it added out to other patron's again. It would only give bonuses for the original click not the Patroned XP Bonus xp. Which would stop it from being built up and down "multiplied".

If you need me to clarify anything in the idea please let me know.

I like that idea, thats what casinos do (bonus wagering).

That is a very nice solution, thanks! It will be a bit before I'm able to implement it, but something like that sounds worth doing.
