Trial By Fire

[hikkikomori]

Аccording to current game mechanics this is not a bug but actualy this situation makes the Trial by Fire rather immune before it starts to work, making it's 4-hours-to-break leg up absolutely useless.

As you can see, the Trial is surrounded by town claim (border stones + town bell) leaving only the middle tile of it outside the city claim. Not to mention the fence, that is completely covered by the t-claim.

This post is supposed to bring up some additional thoughts to developers about the 'extremly hard life of raiders'.
Ply poplulation at this very moment counts 39 folks.

but this IS restricted to an area pretty close to the townbell: as far as I am aware, you can only build the town expansions on a town claim. On the other hand, I do see the tribe just build a townbell near a town they want to besiege.

Very true. I am just pointing attention at the useless features of Trial By Fire.

Let's see the response time admins. I bet the reaction will be. After all, they will not interfere with the play of his friends.

Trial by Fire: Can now be used by anyone, not just members of the village that built it.

This was fixed in the under pressure update, however, this does make the trial invincible for the 4 hour destruction window until it goes live. On top of this, you'll have to leave vandi scents in order to even get to the trial. Super lame

This situation is an obvious abuse since the Trial can't be destroyed before it goes live, while the defenders are forced to leave summonable scents.
Last time when _someone_we_all_know_about_ was rightfully killed due to the wall weakness, walls were reinforced in less than 3 hours.

Lets see the how fast reaction of those who has the authority to make judgments will come this time.

still if it's surrounded by a wall on another town claim then how would you destroy it? Assuming only the tiles that belong to the town in which the trial is facing will become destructible?

You must now wait until the trial goes active and then bash the one side of the wall that is on the trial. You'll be leaving vandi the entire time also, which is godawful considering how long scents last in the inventory.

A couple of bugs, zero administration and you can do whatever you like... unless you peform agression against developers' friends. In that case you will be banned instantly and all the bugs will be fixed, like it was before.

What have been abused against us?

1. Totem that can't be destroyed without criminal actions, can't be accessed before it starts to work and therefore does not tell about it's timing,
2. Criminal characters that fall on hosile claim disappear(or get summoned) in 8 minutes.
3. Building wall-corners ON hostile v-claim and splash-destroy defending walls that ends up in no criminal actions and does not trigger braziers.

What is the real point of paying for the game when there is ZERO administration and bug abusement with no consequnces?
That is a rhetorical question because the answer is obvious.
