Each participant? Or for the whole...guild...

[Oda]

For the whole guild! Since people are not putting money into consumables, because it's practice and because network stability may not be all that...well..stable during the competition, we wanted it to keep the prize pretty modest.

[Studmanly]

modest

Prize: putting everyone in their place.

Valkyrie Realm, castle 3 (the one in the center) is the testbed that will be opened up this weekend. The NPCs there will give players 40 white pots and 20 blue pots with 0 weight and they can speak to the NPC again to heal and restock them.

1. Why are the pots ZERO weight and not 3-5?
2. Can you stack more than 40/20 whites/blues, if you talk to the npc twice? 40 Whites is not enough lol, why not make it 150-2250 whites, and 50-100 blues?

Will u give Acid, Fire, Coat, Gems, Box of Ressent, Foods?

Cause if u dont, we'll put money. and i dont want to spend a lot of zennys to have 5 opb as reward.

Give acess to Guild dungeon for 1 week + 5opb.

But we would put in money if all you provide are pots. We need to provide gems, alchemist supplies and a lot of other things. Unless you provide those things as well, we will be paying out of pocket for virtually no reward.

[Oda]

We are not expecting people to be employing full WoE strategies and costly skills for this one. This is a test of stability...lots of people in castles.

Don't you want an accurate stability test? You're discouraging A LOT of people from playing at this point.

Can you answer my questions and explain how the pots will work, does it only let you carry 40 WoE white pots, and 20 WoE blue pots at a time? Lol.

40 white and 20 blue max. Talking to the NPC refills these back to 40/20.

[Xellie]

lol so basically whoever takes it first wins.

No precast is getting broken on 40 whites.

Have you played said event called "war of emperium" before? Lol.

This is a joke, what a waste of my time, have fun having a stress test without all the real guilds present.

What is one negative effect of giving players more pots to use during a test woe? They can't be used anywhere else?

It can take 100, or more pots just to break through a pre cast..... I could go on forever as to why this is an awful idea.

Waldo has this covered. No reason for me to give my input.

[Xellie]

Doesn't mass consumbable use actually happen to be part of the stress on the server that probably needs to be tested anyway? I recall hearing something about how consumable use adds to server load.

[Aaronnn]

I hope the server has fun getting through 13 wiz pre cast with 40 pots.

[Pres]

not even going to log in

[krossfire]

I think 5 BBs would have been a better choice than OPB.

[Aaronnn]

So I've heard you cannot even memo the castle map, you guys might want to think about fixing that for this test WoE as well.

edit: tested and it's true, can't memo the map.

40 white and 20 blue max

That's absolutely hilarious.

[Axeon]

You expect us to spend our own supplies, not only if we choose to use more than 40 regular whites or 20 blues (loool), but also if we want to use any foods, boxes, gems, coats, bottles and so on?

No thanks, I'd rather save my supplies on a WoE that has guaranteed server stability and actual rewards. I hope this stress test turns out to be more than a test to see how much stress major guilds can handle before quitting.
