          -If the Emperium is destroyed, all guilds except for the castle owner will be moved out of Pron Fortress. 

       ii. The winning guild will be chosen based on Occupation Score. 

          -Occupation Score: Quantifies the cumulative time from the start of WoE to the time when the Castle Emperium is destroyed into a number. 

          -When the Castle Emperium is destroyed, Occupation Score will be accumulated again from the time of the its destruction. 

          -Every time the Castle Emperium is destroyed, the basic Occupation Score will be increased: 

               -When it isn't destroyed: 100 (basic score)

               -When it's destroyed once: Multiply basic score by 2

               -When it's destroyed twice: Multiply basic score by 3

          -Even if Emperiums are being protected by a defending guild, that guild can't win if the Occupation Score is lower than other guilds. 

               -If the score is tied, the defending guild will be the winner. 

   B. The WoE Map will have 3 more fortresses

      i. There will be two fortresses near the Castle and one fortress outside of the Southern Gate

The game is still broken and requires serious fixes---> Add a new weapon refinement system which will probably make the players spend tons of money (zeny or kafra points). Gj gravity/WP.

Kafra shop, kafra shop, and a new system that will most likely say "buy this item from the kafra shop to hone your gear." Is gravity's pockets not full enough with money that they have to introduce a new system that will get them even more?

When will they ever consider to fix most if not all bugs first before they release new content? Oh and when will they hire better developers with all the money that they have? How many bugs are we going to get with this new system? What things are they going to break (asuming something works properly) other than the new system after implementation?

I'm not getting a good feeling of getting a lot on that bug fixes section, but please, prove me wrong. You're more than welcome to.

I wonder what you're doing new with pron fort tho.

Not exactly a wise move to release patch notes early. There should be more to come since they don't have the full build from the devs yet (just the test build for the new content) but if it turns out just to be a simple no fix patch....not going to end well I should say.

Please, do the devs even look at the bug report section? What's the point of having it there and making us submit reports?

I know it's still early and notes may change, but please address those bugs! Some can be fixed very easily but it's taken so long and still unfixed coz weekly kafra updates takes priority.

I'm kinda curious about that honing system, but would it hurt too much to make it accesible for ALL players and not only the ones with money? I'm getting tired of all the p2w sh**. I have to say I'm surprised of my own patience.

 

Well, I think I'll have to wait until the 19th to see patch notes again, to see if there's something worth.

 

Oh, and btw, wasn't Somebody's Shell now in 7F instead of Romeo and Juliet Cape?
