RE: MVP Tombstone Announcement
I want to make we all think about this:
Tombstones got implemented in renewal, yes, for the reason Ciar stated, but in renewal every class is a big damage dealer, so you can pretty much mvp on any third job you like (and/or gear).

Here, in pre-renewal, basically 99% of mvps are hunted with asura, and not only here on HeRO, but everywhere thats not a HighRate. So with champs nothing changes, its like third job that anyone can deal massive damage regardless. We there are all champions.

And i dont have mostly any complaint with it.

What i do have issue with, is non-champ mvps and party-organized mvps.
Those two categories are more delicate. They require precise setups and a good quantity of tranquillity, to be done. Because they are already a bit stressful by themselves.

Im not scared of being out-mvp'ed.
I hate only one instance. One thing. One particular situation:
Rachel sanctuary 5.
Not the mvp there, but the map.
Seekers and agavs. And lucky lexed sonic blows.

I cant focus on the mvp because i need to clean the surroundings, while the other sniper gets all the juice from the mvp.
If you clean you dont do dps. If you do dps you dont clean. So having the game advantage of being alone vs the mvp is great. In renewal, they can oneshot basically any normal monster.

But renewal have another problem, that tombstones didnt solve: finding the mvp when it respawns.
Offy servers make leverage of that to sell Convex Mirrors for real money.
When the tombstone disappears, they all start tping and its just a game of LUCK to land near the mvp before others. Except for convexers, they pay to see the mvp coordinates and they even see it 3 seconds before the tombstone disappears.

Then, regarding party-organized mvps, example: morroc and randgris. They cannot be done with few ppl without portal-strats.
What this lead to? that if two parties go to Morroc, and the 1st party deals 99.9% dmg to mvp hp, but the champs goes out map to recharge in the party, the 2nd mvp can deal 0.2% dmg only and steal the mvp. Stealing all the work done by the other party. Does this seem right to you guys?
Also fearing that, this will happen: party's respective champs will not do the final asura, because if the other champ is in the map and they asura but dies, the other champ will get the mvp. So they will kinda play a game of waiting, not wanting to be the champ that makes the first move because they have to take a big risk. The risk of nullify all the work done.

I may be overprotective on the subject but im trying to think how the situation could evolve, and those sounds like totally possible scenarios (also because they already happened, i remember this at Morroc years ago, and we both parties reached a stall, nobody wanted to finish the mvp fearing a death so the other could then go and take it, or hit and leave the mvp with too low health so the other's asura can kill it while hes out).

I wasnt expecting such change, so quick, and with only few coming out on the subject. I was kinda expecting a full post on Poll maybe, from a GM, formally introduce the subject, plus what they were thinking as a PRO and CON of it. This is the reason i didnt even began discussing in depth of how i think this is on the Suggestion Pon made on the other thread.
