Future of Hamlet Defense

[debola]

I have been mulling over the Hamlet defense stuff for a bit now, ever since Yoshi-P said something about them being like the F.A.T.E. (Full Active Time Event).

Here's the idea I had about Hamlet defense. If no one defends it then the hamlet falls and is either occupied or destroyed. If occupied, then we need to invade it to recapture. If destroyed then we need to evict them and rebuild. That could be mass content for the crafting classes, rebuild the town! give them more of a purpose than just equipment and personal houses. It would have to be a once a month thing or something like that, not an everyday occurrence.

I know it wouldnt be a simple as that but its a concept or idea that they could or maybe already have tossed around.

What would you guys think?

EDIT: Territory wars. Give GC bonuses for the people enlisted depending on how many hamlets they have or special items for sale using seals depending on how many they have. Also add in taking over beasment strongholds as an Invasion, sort of the proactive counterpart to he Hemlet Defense.

Ummmmm..... Make hamlet a once a month thing?. Have u done it b4?. It takes a fucking long time to get ur seals already and now ur talking once a month?. I've gotten all i want from hamlet so it doesnt affect me but i still think its a horrid idea.

Caravans and hamlet for me were the two most boring things in the game. If anything, im interested in seeing how they'll try to make them enjoyable. hamlet was like a neccesary chore nd it was impossible to stomach more than 3 caravan runs. I'm happy that their changing them but im hoping its for the better.
