GM-Pandora Wrote:People hiding in castle to get participation prize has been discussed by the GM team a lot, as you may guess some of the GMs were of that opinion also. I think it might happen the first few WoEs after we implement this, but not further, people who dislike WoE will stop bothering fast in my opinion, the rewards are to encourage casual WoErs to join on a more steady basis. As someone pointed out, there's only one way to find out!
I see derandomization of chests and a 3rd castle are popular, but I'm doubtful about those 2 alone bringing more people to WoE.
Maybe, I can personally say I wouldn't get tired of getting prizes just for afking w/ skillz, but dunno about others.
If in the end people would fight to stay alive and end up deciding to woe per se could work I guess it can be given a try. I don't agree much with it though..
Gankz's idea of the custom eden group quest would be nice to bring new people I'd think, in any case.
