I think the main objective should always be more pk, there are already big incentives to farm. I mean if you want p3 wings as a new player you will need to farm all day. But ofc, people play ko to pking, not as a farm simulator (and that's why so many users farm with macro bots and multiple accounts). I don't think your suggestions would incentivize more pk. From what I've seen the things that get ppl pking are fun maps (rlb, lunar, invasion, etc), some bosses (isiloon, felankor, etc), and manly an even distribution of orcs and humans. The starting gear is not great, but it's not supposed to be. With a FT necklace, skele belt, and some dd helmet you're good to go. Players that are new or play very casually will never put in the time to get +1 uniques, iron set, max out armor, p3, or top tier weapons. It's fine as it is, you shouldn't expect to win 1v1 against vastly more geared players, but you can pk in parties. I don't think casual players don't play more because they find it hard to gear up. I think it's mainly a difference in time investment. No casual player is running around in eslant or emc/lfc. The pk with what they have in the time they have to play. However they will log off if cz is empty, as would most people. And for coordination, you have the bosses and the fun maps. You know that in rlb people will log in, so there is a greater chance to have a balance of orcs vs humans and you can have some pk. Same in lunar, etc. Ofc, you don't have that 24/7. In order to be fun maps, you need the normal boring cz maps. If you want that 24/7, or closer to that, you would need something like p4 wings. Something high invested users want to chase (runes were an attempt at that). However it's tricky, because it's not sustainable and you need to make it attractive enough (and related to normal cz pking, not FT, Lunar, etc). You can only power scale so much until you get to +3 uniques and +10 weapons. And the more you do that, the higher the gap between top end and base players, which forces you to upgrade begginer gear and so on. Not a good cycle to be in long term. I think nikos understand this from what I've seen. Printing money by making it more accessible doesn't change any of this, it will just lead to higher prices. If anything is under explored it's cosmetic changes. In other games, high invested players can go to great lengths only for their char to look "cooler" or "distinct". You can do this without affecting the balance. And ko has a lot of under utilized skins. Personally, I think the Bone Staff looks sick and the design rots in obscurity in your client. I bet people will farm in bowl long hours to have their weapons/armor look like their favorite skin. And bowl farm = pk.

i almost won but you killed your own char like 20 times lol  know how you feel tho , goodluck

I'm trying to log in to the game, but I can't get in with any of my accounts. My PC access has been suspended, and I need to get back to playing. I admit I made a mistake, and I know I made an nps transfer during the DM event, but this is my first strike and I won't do it again. nick: LORDPingostini https://imgur.com/a/CD5XUzI
