So in other words, if you add our 1260 + 600 Titan kills points togehter and get to 1860, our guild will need to kill 10 titans before we would be able to get enought points to buy the oggy gloves.



1860*10= 18,600, Gloves are 11,250.

And if you won with 1260 points, wouldn't you essentially get 610 ?
Also it might be a bug since the initial idea was to give the winner x2 so you would get 1260*2= 2,520.
Which would mean under 5 hunts at that winning rate.

The update sounds good but, like RJEM pointed out, the TKPs need to go to everyone who gets kills not just the top 5. Also, the amount of TKP needed to get the item seems a bit high.


This is really key to the idea being successful - if the required kills aren't similar to the titan HP (HP x 1.5 seems popular) then the situation won't change because people will think they will never reach 16000 kills etc.

I'm in favour of a big reduction, and of course for everyone to receive the points for their kills.

Been reading the update for the titan killing & although it seems & sounds nice, it is not sufficient to stop the monopoly on titan hunting. there is not titan hunting ban for a period if u won a titan item. there is no compensation reward for all guilds participating.

An update to the update would be nice if guilds who have killed the titan over 10% of the kills would get the percentage of the TPK. Let us say if a titan needs to be killed 5000 times, any guild killing the titan 500 times should get TPK, this will make the competition better & fairer. u can raise the requirements for the redeeming of the TPK - items to higher levels but it will give guilds more incentive to hit titans.

another way to do it, is to get a TPK for every kill & raise the lowest item to be redeemed to let us say 50k TPK

Titans now reward guilds with TKP (Titan Kill Points) which are unique to each different titan. Each kill of a titan awards your guild 1 TKP, which can be saved up then used to purchase items on the Titan Rewards page.


I think everyone s getting TKPs , if they arent then its a bug

once again, epic phail, this changes nothing. put the win limit in effect, 2 of each titan per week per guild, give all the smaller guilds a chance. the game is supposed to be about competition, not domination.

go ahead frackers, make your threats and rude comments.

and yes, if panic wanted to dominate the titan scene, we would, believe that, it would be no problem, we just have better things to do with our time.


....lol

So from what I assume now, nothing can be gained from the Elemental Titans? That's how it should be.

One thing, what is going to happen with all the RP from "winning" the Elemental Titans that was going to be retrospectively added?

Two questions:

1. Can players that are NOT in a guild gather these Points for the titan Kills they get also?
( If so then great, that means that Solo Players can not eventually get these items)

2.
What would keep a player (that has Rank permitions to use these Points) from buying an item(s) ,with the correct amount needed, then grabbing the item from the Guild Mailbox and leaving the guild?
Essentially robbing the Guild of their hard earned Points AND Item?!

...Just thinking ahead. :wink:

They would need permission to take items from the Guild Store :)

It would be silly if only leadership could take items from the guild store, Hoof

someone find me a "like" button. =)

Even though i average 150 kills per hunt (which will probably be reduced down to half that now)... so i just need.... 110 Oggy's to spawn over the next.... hmmm... year or so to get a grasp =)

What was wrong with 3 Second Delay ?

If you've reduced it, at least implement one of the movement suggestions hoof.

Overall great update, hoof!

Hopefully the implementation bugs get sorted out - I know you're working hard on it.

For those of you unhappy with the update, I urge you to consider that no matter which change was implemented, someone was going to be unhappy. This is an equitable, fair system that encourages competition and kills monopolies stone dead.

Hoof, what if anything has been done to reward the winners of elemental titans? And has RP been divorced from those spawns as well?
