On Forked Tower Changes

[TeresaFortell]

You can 100% see this on ABBA who’s entire bot queue system is built upon people queuing to their respective prog point and then people pull from the queue as needed which works for BA and DRS

Now 90% of the listings for forked are like “THIS IS A RECLEAR SPAM RUN NO EXTRA SANGUINITE COLLECTED IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE ILL COME TO YOUR HOUSE AND KILL YOU WE WONT BE PULLING FROM QUEUE ITS A SIGN UP WHERE I PRIORITISE YOU BASED ON PARSES”

like way to miss the entire point of how ABBA is designed and make forked seem way more daunting than it is leaving only like 1/20 runs being fresh prog/dead stars prog

The only way to fix this is to fundamentally change the entry system entirely, which they are working on and improving, so that it would not be so daunting even to enter the tower. However, at the same time, they would have to tone down the overall difficulty, because it is still too challenging to do it without coordination at the moment.

That wouldn’t change anything because the problem is the majority of people who have cleared forked and still run it want the 100 clear title so they have proverbial internal justification to lock runs to other “consistent clearers”

BA works better here because there is no incentive to clear more than once

Ironically removing that 100 clear achievement would make it be cleared way less often but pugged by more people

Like ABBA is regularly getting complaints right now by people going “I want to prog forked but I’m not sure how I can when there is 1 prog run per week and 130 reclear only runs” and those endless reclear runs are being driven by the 100 clears system
