Feedback and Opinions are welcome, note that this thread will be expanded with more information over time.
If rebirthing is added, particularly in the fashion outlined here, I personally am done with the server (which would mean I'd be done with Mir altogether for probably a few more years. Not quite ready to depart again yet :P). Everybody who had something to say about this on our guilds comms said the same, and the few that said they'd stay still thought negatively of it.
I'm not knocking it simply because I'd never reach lv.50 to be able to rebirth (I've played 2 weeks and am getting through lv.44, I certainly probably could and may get there... Eventually...). I'll bullet point my thoughts else the post will become too long:
- It's inaccessible to the majority of the playerbase (although not necessarily a bad thing, it can be good to have things seperating the few from the many sometimes)
- It's disgustingly unbalanced. Double HP, Accuracy and Agility (not even considering the rest of the stats here) will mean that to a rebirthed player, everyone else is like a mob. As if this isn't already somewhat the case: Tzuk 3shot me yesterday, and I'm hearing reports of the high wizzies taking over half of a well geared lv.47 Warrior's HP in one FF.
- Leveling rebirthed would be ****ing boring, due to being unable to gain XP in a group. Not to mention this being naturally advantageous to wizzies.
- Extremely easily exploitalble. No grouping allowed? Cool, let's exploit the tagging system to depleat a shitload of mob HP's and have the rebirthed guy 1 shot em all.
I, personally have always hated para rings and protection rings in Mir. Let's have an item granting a completely brokenly unbalanced mechanic, and make it super rare (who thought of this really?)! But I actually like your idea to add these stats to droppable charms and make them
only applicable to monsters.
But yeah, there's already very powerful players in-game, some of whom have no lives and others who pay levelers to grind their char. You're suggesting to add a feature to the game that makes them a hell of a lot stronger, whilst making their leveling experience absolutely ****ing boring (no grouping) further pushing them to pay levelers. I just don't get it.
Not to mention, this feature would negate the need to add further content to the game (no, this isn't content).
This is the best Mir private server I've ever played, I'm having a great time on it. This feature would absolutely **** on it for me, and I'd drop it in an instant if it was added. "I'm leveling to lv.50 so I can do it all over again but solo this time", uhhm... No thanks. I don't care how OP I'd be, I wouldn't endure such a bore just for that.
I think the name of this should be changed to something more appropriate if it were to be added:
God status.
