I have had potions made for me by Melissa as many in my guild have and here at SP we are a good sized guild but nobody is close to her ability yet i see nothing wrong with her traveling around until such time my guildmates can obtain her level in composing. The only thing id like to see is a restriction added to guild managment to limit recall of composed potions as we have had several misshaps of people using a potion that wasnt theres we label ours with our names it shouldnt be hard to figure out but with new people in guilds its a problem we have faced.
Quit setting us up for failure ..

We're listening and we'll definately take it into account in future events. Who says the next one will be Zogrom vs Shroud?
Please fit in a global for frag chests .. I have 5 common frags and 27,000 rare ! thanks

Leave players who have worked VERY hard and exerted many resources to their craft alone to ply their trade any way they choose!
On the other hand, those that use unauthorzed scripts to compose pots 24/7 like they never sleep are what ruins the integrity of the game and I only wish HCS had the balls to terminate them permanently!
I've proven definite scripting to the cows on 1 occasion (AH) and almost definite scripting (Composing) to them on a separate occasion.
In both cases, the player is still active in the game.
Fix the scripting problem, SURE, I think everyone (bar the cheaters) are 100% behind that ....
Only real way to do it ? - ban ALL scripts - and then have more proactive (and effective) monitoring from the cows, rather than reactive ...

You can twist this any way u choose , but basically the person who originally made the suggestion has access to a lvl 48 composer.
Very few guilds have a composer that high a lvl. The guilds with the higher level composers will have better buffs available for gvgs, pvp, better buffs to scavenge and hunt with..... etc.... the list is endless.
So its pretty obvious if you stop the composing travellers the weak get weaker and the strong get stronger. My guild angellife will remain strong with high lvl composers .
Sorry to break your heart, but how weak will a small guild be if they do not have access to potions they do not really need?
I can hunt and 1 hit fine at my level without them.
The composing should have been tied to the guild if you ask me. Made a guild feature, paid from the guild bank, and frags donated by its members. Then in my opinion we would have had a great solution and would have perfectly made sense as the rewards for composing are guild tagged anyways.

people will always try and find a loophole for personal profit..
if i were the cows i would make traveling potion makers have to stay in a guild for at least 7 days before they can make guild tagged potions..
titan hunters cant join a guild and hunt within 7 days of joining, so i cant see why potion makers are allowed to profit while guild hopping

why is it when some one works hard to achieve a skill players have to come down on them , As a member of a small guild we too use the travelling composer , and see nothing untoward in that , we are happy to pay the composer for his/ her services , leave well alone . As for scripting it needs to be banned , it has been a huge problem since Titans first spawned yet years later we still have it and now in other areas of the game also , abusers never seem to get banned , just get a rap across the knuckles and told they are" naughty boys/girls" ![]()

with regards to composers there doing no harm so there profiting from moving guild to guild so what there filling a need and if they wasnt a lot of small guilds and even some big ones would be missing out

Just my take I recently contacted a traveller to get some potions, after some thought I decided not to pursue it but instead use the fsps to accelerate my own composing .. if I wait another month or 3 who cares I would rather play the game and get the rewards myself than allow someone to profit from me.

Okay, a lot of material to read here but, I'll put my opinion out on it (some may like it....others may want to send me to a very warm place so I can toast marshmellows at any given time).
The global event (GE) should be left as is. Get off your backside and move it if you want the rewards given. I wasn't at max stam (had 13K) and, still got 19,219 kills for the event. That's also while buffing people for the event as many as I could in the FS community and, sending them the info on the GE best places to hunt that Egami made. I got my 2 crystal chest rewards and, am planning to stack them so I can level like mad with other potions. If you can't figure out how to stack the crystal chest potion for hunting to get a awesome hunt, talk to me. Be glad to help out.
As for bound stash drops for the event....they were put there to make people want to do it more and give them a little something something in return. Leave it as is...repair cost for gear? Part of the game, I hunt with all my epics on and use Unbreakable 175. No problems.
Traveling composers...something we never use in SW. We're not the biggest guild (90th spot right now) and, I'm chugging along to Comp. L19 right now. Do I say they should be stopped traveling to other guilds cause they found a loop hole? Not yet. First HCS should get going and remove the blasted scripts that is screwing everyone over in the game. Don't think it's not hurting FS? Take them rose coloured glasses off and, clue in. On the forums not run by HCS, many former players (who sank good money into the game) have brought it up. So, you keep the person sinking $100 in the game amonth and don't tick them off...so freaking what! While you did that, 80 people who gave $40 a month to the game just took the door and are speaking out about it. Word of mouth can be a blessing or a curse....you choose which.
Now that I am done. Feel free to send me where ever you choose....just if you send me to someplace else, give me some sunblock or let me wear shorts.![]()

Well that restriction, come to think of it, is to stop players from circumventing the cooldown. That makes sense. But why should players be stopped from changing guilds offering what they have to offer to any guild? Players shouldn't be able to profit isn't a valid reason to me, only a jealous one.
I don't know, if that was irony I didn't get it, but the Titan HuHunters (scripting or not) need to have a 7 days of residence to reach all Titans, without players could make 2 or more guilds, travel along and never get cooldown on any Titan, with scripters doing no one else on the game would be able to play it.
About the GE:
What I think is necessary/great addition:
- 1x Extra prize of what community gets for everyone over 20K~30K kills (variables applied for events with kill multiplier).
What I would like to see/give it a try:
- Hidden Top 100, hidden progression bar, hidden personal targets for each tier.
(The World will show "Gold Tier Achieved", but not showing how much more we need for Crystal...Or not, hide everything)
That could be a special global quest...would be VERY FUN if the prizes was hidden too hehe

I really don't see us hiding the Progress bar. That'd simply turn people away. They don't want to be blind to how they're doing. I doubt we'll hide the Top 100 either.
I have no problem with looking to give others an additional prize, whether it's 101 to 250 gaining an extra chest or the whole gain an extra chest for x kills. It's certainly something I'll mention to Hoofmaster and poke Zorg to implement if we agree on it.
As for Travelling Composers, two things.
One. We have always said we have no problem with it. It was unexpected, but generally speaking, we're happy with it. I don't see us changing that.
Two. It's off topic. So no more thanks.

Players Profit from solo-secure on Titans by selling items..... "Farmers" profit from hunting and selling items for compoing and potion making....Merchants Profit from buying and selling Gear.... I see NOTHING wrong with "Composers" travelling around selling their potions!! They have spent hours upon hours and tons of FSP crafting their skill......I am level 19 composing and know how much it costs and the time it takes....If they choose to leave their "Guild Lifestyle" and travel around...so be it and kudo's to them for doing such!
How did this become an issue in a "Global Thread"?? Wayyyyyy OFF TOPIC......lol

the simplest method grim honest ly would be giving the extra 2 chest to anyone making 40k-50k plus kills i list that number as thats around what the top 100 achieve now and then anyone above 30k kills get a extra chest you would see more doing the events if they know they have a guarantee that by spending the stam on 30k kills they will get at least 1 best chest

I like the idea of an extra chest (1 extra) for those who got 101 to 150 spot in the event. It would still generate a lot more people to hunt. I'd say, top 100 get whatever ruby chest it was (2 of them or whatever HCS deems worth wild) and, 101 to 150 either a ruby chest or, 1 extra that the community reached. This would go over great and would stop a lot of the bellyaching and such. However, I don't think any other changes to GE is needed. We can do the amounts HCS has listed for the max target, just got to get people willing to part with their stam.![]()

OK, about extra chests for the 100-150 that *ALMOST* made the top 100.... wouldn't that just basically make the list the top *250*? Why not just do that, instead of a top 100 for GE's just make it top 250.... It would widen the competition and may spark more interest.... Seems to me it would be a lot less complicated to distribute the bonus chests at the end as well.... Makes sense to me, anyway....

top 100 get 2 chests next lot get extra 1 if you make so the whole 250 get the same reward there wont be any incentive to go much higher then you need to secure a spot

So, we have tiers for the top list. Give an *extra* reward for say #1-100, everybody else gets the standard top list reward....
