Say NO to the New Possession (Claiming) Structure Being Developed!!!

[MrKupo]

the problem is with either option they gave it will be easily exploited. i'll give simple examples

1. they make it to where first person that hits the mob gets the drop. simple run up and attack a mob while a group is getting ready to attack it and then let them kill it and you get the drop.

2. whichever group does more damage to a mob gets the drop. grab a high level party and run around and just overpower a group if they out claim you. don't say it can't happen when we already see the disparity in time it takes people to beat dungeons and nm's already.

i understand that it is faith in mankind that makes people think things like this would not happen, but most people do not live by an honor code in real life and the numbers are even lower than that in an online community.

unless alot of foresight is put into these changes i can see many people in here complaining not long after about people coming griefing them.

1. If some guy came and took the NM you were planning on killing, would you kill it? I wouldn't. I would let that guy die and wait for the next one. The spawn rates aren't like ffxi.

2. This doesn't seem to be what they are planning, but if it is, there is room for griefing here. I could go on about greed, politics, and the depth of player relations in this post, but lets just say that every yin has a yan.

1. no i wouldn't, but if the same person stood doing it repeatedly or had a claim bot in the area it would get very old fast. i was just stating it had more ways to grief others and could be easily exploited.

2 this is a direct quote from Matsui.
"For contents with alliance we’re thinking of a system where the loot is evenly distributed or changing amount of loot depending on amount of damage given."

i was just trying to point out flaws that hopefully they could see that could cause issues before they made them into the game. i would love to believe in a perfect world none of this would never happen, but we know that we don't live in one and not everyone is out to "help" anyone other than themselves. i just hope they put alot of thought into how they would make the changes and try to look at it from all angles of what legit and shady people would do.
