through all the various discussions on pvp and raid **** this issue was one of the ones jc and i both pretty much agreed on, current state of the game lets big mouth retards sit in the middle of a giant claim without worry because the absurd drain means all your bb is gone before you even get in position to attack the defenses and if you do breach them you still can not eliminate the claim without dropping a million silver and thousands of leather/cotton just to give them their 500k back

it is broken, everyone knows it is and eventually it will fixed. feel free to make them as large as you want as it will be that much more enjoyable when i knock it over

until then it is simply a matter of developing raiders with enough BB to stay on target longer, something i did a long time ago before the new enhanced MOAB program even started.

your player claims the size of antarctica are of no concern to me.

how does 2 and 3 Matter?

2) i bet the pclaim is next to townbell like a good player would do so u would need to get to it anyway
3) as soon as said player is attacked by a TbF he would fill the pclaim and your permissions are like JC... gone

how do they not matter?

THE biggest issue with claims is not even the drain, it is the fact they can not be destroyed.

i would be perfectly fine risking a character with thousands of black bile in an effort to take out someone with a giant claim because i can actually win should i reach the claimstone, having to rely on the civilian town system which was not intended for pvp to remove claims is not viable for those of the size discussed

if i go to the effort of attacking some jackoff that is trying to abuse the drain and i manage to get to his claim stone i should be able to destroy it under an active siege, not spend days building authority objects so i can finally spend a million+ for the luxury of refunding all of my enemies claim money into the safety of his bank account.
