The effects of Tea

Postby AmmaBoss » Tue Dec 22, 2015 4:21 pm

Raider aare punish for having high BB on their characters, IMO it is Unfair that a 250 stats black bile character is able to a raid faster than a 500 black bile character.
This is because of brazier taking 20% of your current Black bile , along with Tea having a base regen rate of 1 bile max per 3 seconds which can not be increase.
A 500 stat character will be able to tank brazier maybe 20% more damage than a 250 character but takes 2 x as long to regen.
Allowing Tea leave to be place in distillers resulting in .1L of a special type of tea every 8 hours , This tea regen .1% of your max biles per sip ( x 10 ) every 3 secs.
Resulting in higher stats character having a way to regen their bile within 5 min as lower stats character can already do.
The effects of tea may or may not take place while in combat.

it isnt unfair, someone with higher bb can steal a lot more **** and take a much larger initial damage load.

no reason you cant regen to half then go in and be just like the other guy, and regenning to full over 5 minutes would be stupid. i would literally destroy any town on the server in a half an afternoon with a system like that.

As far as I know, there are no extra punishment for crime characters with higher biles. Crit damage from defensive structures takes your current amount of blood and black bile to take a percent from, not your maximum. If you don't want to regen your black bile to 500 - stop at 250, if you feel comfortable with it.

Imagine there was a penalty for high biles?

Careful what you ask for...

See the thing is a 250 stats character can raid just as well as a 500 stats bb character.
I think there should be diminishing returns but still with how brazier and taking items from claims works at the moment there is no point having more than 250 BB - 300 BB ,
Even after you breach a claim and disable the defences , and you started looting the claim a 250 stats character will be able to loots just as fast as a 500 stats character since they both will have the same regen rate.
My idea is not perfect , perhaps the number could be change so that it takes 10 min to fully regen your biles.

I can see where you are coming from with this. The simple solution would be for me to remove tea from raiding though.

That's unfortunate since I saw that the King was rich up to his chin in silver in which he increased the price of tea :'D

How quickly can 3 braziers and 5 torches force a 500-biles raider off a wall to regen? Just a really rough estimate.

It would make sense to implement something to make raising your BB above 250 worthwhile. Relying on a massive amount of alts is for many people not possible due to their computers. Your raiding succes should not depend on your computer memory usage. I guess it makes some sort of sense to make pure characters in some biles as we currently do see fighters, tankers and bashers boosting just one or two biles to make it an easier investment.

Altough, running more alts is more intensive and dangerous on the side-note.
