      • Search around Caer Bersktead, Caer Erasleigh, or Caer Sursbrooke in Albion.
      • Search around Nottmoor Faste, Blendrake Faste, or Hlidskialf Faste in Midgard.

    Tough little mobs to kill. Vanguards hit kinda hard on my BM even with all resists up. They have a lot of hit points.

    @Carol_Broadsword How is this quest a loyalty to your realm? Realm timers ( I know BS doesn't want them back, but players do) do keep the folks from realm hopping in certain instances. Maybe this has been discussed somewhere else and I've not seen it. Just want a clarification that if we are calling something "Loyalty" that it actually is being "Loyal" to that realm. Can I go to all 3 realms and get it done also? That doesn't seem "Loyal". I have characters on all 3 realms, enjoy a change of pace once in a while, but folks have abused this realm hopping every few minutes depending on what a BG may be doing. The bonuses are a joke, one minute hibs have a 50%, mids have a 85% and albs have a 10%, folks start logging around because of a relic take and bam you have 100% mid bonus, 10% hib bonus and 10% alb bonus. Maybe just my rant, still have an active account for now. Thanks for reading my long post.

    Too bad they couldn't put in a system where when you earn RPs on X realm you will receive a debuff in RP earning when you log over to the other realms. Maybe make the RP debuff last for about an hour or so.

    Dont punish if someone is jumping on an different realm and enjoy playing on several realms. Maybe just reward staying on one realm (loyality bonus, climbing up and climbing down (not dropping to zero if you jump to an different realm))

    I haven't met 1 person in the game that doesn't want realm timers back in . Make it 30 minutes that's pretty simple enough.

    I’m okay with a realm timer 15 mins maybe 30 tops. During the weekdays only get a few hrs per day to play

    I think you should get bonus RPs for switching to the underpop realm.

    I think you shouldn't get bonus RPs for staying on the same realm, you'll just end up with totally one sided zergs.

    I think stealthers should lose RPs when they join a group that have other stealthers in it.

    I think you should lose 1 realm rank for leaving one realm during a relic take to join the other.

    On topic the quest is pretty useful. I was able to level up an alt and get then to CL15 with the 35 lesson and 50,000 BPS

    You pretty much can get CL15 and ML10 on that scroll.

    @Impounded

    How is that a logical answer? If I don't agree with you I shouldn't be posting?

    I think switching to the underpop realm should give bonus RPs because in US prime (example), the population is so low that one group switching over to the underpop realm can rebalance action a lot. Zergs are mainly 2-3 fg now, so 1 fg switching has a big influence. Right now, there is no incentive to switch, other than to balance action. I can't tell for Euro time, but I'm pretty sure Hero faces no opposition at all.

    If you have a bonus to RPs for not switching, then you aggravate that problem. People will stay on the top performing realm (to get their daily quests done) and eventually totally kill what's left of the game.

    Not my problem if your zerg was never able to take relics. You had the numbers game night after night for a while (for like 2 years when there was no hib zerg and rescu wasn't leading). And relics are pretty much irrelevant now, as Hero will always recapture them by PVEing a couple keeps the next day.

    This is off topic relative to the new daily quest.
