Waste of time and effort that anyone has put into this.
The worst part is: most likely some insane bug is introduced. Inguess somethiny like Every Castle Will burn 100% the second this is activated and the egstuingish functions are Blocked.
I do not see the practical use of it. I guess the purpose is to increase revenue by selling this feature? With the current game it is already almost impossible to create a fire in a castle. A better feature would be that players who's castles are burning can no longer participate in PvP actions.
So if it's "almost impossible" to create a fire, what's the issue with removing the ability to do it?
Less well ranked/smaller players will get most benefit from there being no fires, the ones that do actually burn now. The ones who wouldn't buy it if it was a pay for feature.
The no-burn global effect is an idea I can get behind. Loosing even a single battle couses too much damage on a lvl70 castle which circa 1 month reparation without timeskips and you can't even held enough of 30min, 1h timskips to extinguish multiple castles (rip 5h and 24h skips) at the same which made many players extremely pacifist.
This could turn into another Ruby vs non buying discussion. This game is about activity and being in a well trained alliance. Why should the highly active players be punished with this feature because a semi or non active player has to put out fires? With relics and the huge boosts in food production, which are free, this game has been balanced to help free players more than those who spend. Relics have made all our bought equipment useless.
@jagerboom (US2) are u for real? Do u honestly believe that the gap is closing?
Yes bought equipment is becoming redundant fast but so is the hard earned equipment like Kala etc. And for non spenders it's much harder to get good relic casties together. It takes forever because u need the right pieces.
Activity helps, no doubt but it's still a lot slower than the swipe of a credit card.
Like it or not. There is a very clear distinction and two groups of players. The deep pockets and the little guys. Ideally the big boys should play with each other and the little guys should play with other little guys.
But unfortunately that's not what happens in reality. So for the 24 hours for which the effect lasts big guys will be deprived of burning little guys to bits.
Because let's face it. You're not lighting up other big guys. They too are in big alliances with big support. The effect is irrelevant for them. So if you're hitting in your own weight division the effect means nothing. And if you're hitting down the little guy gets to breathe for 24 hours.
For interests sake....the only rule GG had in early days was that you shouldn't hit burning castles. That was one of the few fair play guidelines GG ever had.
We have people quitting in droves because they are never afforded time to recover.
If you lack experience in that area do please refrain from commenting, seen “big boys” burn like any other small player yes it’s much harder to achieve but also more satisfying.
Personally try not to hit the weaker players but I can see where you’re coming from
Paid relic com and cast far outshine anything you can earn.
Ofcourse your equipment becomes redundant just as the original equipment did and just as this relic equipment will be eventually. Gge cant make money if you've hit the ceiling

False.
You can build a relic comm/cast exactly as good (max) as the purchasable relic comm/cast: and it will cost you less to upgrade to max than the buy versions aswell.
False. I mean sure YOU COULD but you'd need to be getting gold pieces which as you may of noticed are only available to players who win events or spend money (essentially spend money or spend money)
I wonder how many people are there who are actually working on the game. I assume less than 10. The greedy moves of GG can't be justified by the game needing money for development, becouse there isn't really any manpower behind this game and thay are not willing to invest any more, no matter how much we spend.

you dont need gold pieces to make a comm/cast thats maxed
Love the idea. Should implement it full folds... Here's why.
1. I'm not a jerk so I don't care who is on fire, I killed troops, I got glory or honor (honor needs to be more VALUABLE!!! -cough cough)... Happy camper
2. Let's face it... Huge disparity between top players, mediocre players, and not so good players... Stop fronting, we been ripping the old Equipment casts apart with these new relics and looks. Give people a chance to sleep and wake up with no fires but still no troops...
3. If food is the main source of Defense, and defense is the main source of glory, and troops to kill is essential to fun wars... Then why would we want to decrease food production with fires and the negative impact in food... More glory on those under developed casts anyway right?
4. Tool burning... Yep it's a thing. Get over it. I don't prefer to do it. But I don't cry when someone does it to me cuz they are scared to defend. Or even if it's just to tick me off... After all I am attacking them and according to most the bully players , "it isn't against GG rules" ... So get over that, there's tons of glory events if your too scary to defend against. Heck that's a compliment. Haha.
Final note on it tho... Really if players didn't pick on weak castles, this discussion would be moot. Top teams gonna defend. Honor holders gonna defend. Increase the honor rewards to something worth while and the defense desirability will remain high.

I don't think 1 day is long enough to base a decision on. I think a longer trial would work better. Comments based on players perceptions not on reality of how it would work.
Comments
from my Understanding
it’s only applicable to sabotaging and not pvp fires
Completly useless idea.
Waste of time and effort that anyone has put into this.

What will happen to existing fires when effect is turned on?
*edit*
Dumbest idea ever. And that's saying alot. That's part of the satisfaction of beating someone is seeing fires in their castle.
Well a bit of clarification has been added. If fires are in place they won't be extinguished by the no burn effect.
I do not see the practical use of it. I guess the purpose is to increase revenue by selling this feature? With the current game it is already almost impossible to create a fire in a castle. A better feature would be that players who's castles are burning can no longer participate in PvP actions.

All in all this sounds like a pretty pointless feature unless you’re playing at a low lvl or hold a capital or metropolis

Are lvl11 wall capacity build items also as good as lvl20 ones?
Wall capacity build items are not part of a relic Comm/cast
