Eden-DAoC

I love playing in Battlegrounds, let me stay there. Why are you forcing this on your players? Why can't I stay in Molvik?

I am referring to this change: "XP Off behavior has changed... Player kills will now count towards XP"

S3 Patch 14 - 2025-05-28
XP Off behavior has changed:,
-- Player kills will now count towards XP
Exp loss from dying has been greatly reduced


Some details about me

I have no 50s
I have no templated characters
I just love the BGs

I have not played since this change has rolled out.

Same here

same here, we logged on, saw the change and 5 peopple just there and then quit.

You can still play and level in BGs. Just way less time.

The Battlegrounds where never intended to level.
Its about learning you chars to play in PvP with a slower and less complex way or just have fun in small realm fights.

If you don´t like the BG you have plenty of options not to go there and may get killed by player who enjoy a key thing in DAoC which is PvP.

Now the BGs are only a fast travel to 50 and a foundation of DAoC has been disabled.

The /RP OFF was bad, but may have been accaptable, this new idea is not.

Its like why some people like classic daoc less tools less ability less complexity less special item abilitys.

I kind understand why some people want stay in BG as its bare bone basic old fashion daoc. I never done it myself but i can understand why some people like it. maps can be fun can be fast to find combat . No rr5abilitys etc.

Agree BG's are more fun, 1v1's, duo, small or just not run over by a zerg / RR10+ toons.
BG's are more accessible to casual players or solo running when time is limited.

I would prefer if DEVS actually stopped the constant giant bug outs, than totally nerfed the BG's

TBH with recent changes my time here is likely to be over

I agree, please give us back the possibility to stay in BGs. I'm a casual player that enjoy this quick and more simple access to fun and pvp.

I had posted a thread last night on this very topic in Eden discord and had a few NF fan boys jump all over it in a negative way in return Andryn_Eden Locked the thread and today its deleted and timed me out on discord for Having a civil conversation I never stepped out of line so I can't speak for two weeks and not so much as a reason and then Andryn_Eden went as far as liking some of Rawrs not so much on topic comments (Aligned with his I assume) and silencing me 20 mins after the conversation was over I guess if your way of thinking is not the same as theirs it's a problem.... All I said was I shouldn't be force out of a battleground until im capped rps this was not the community I thought it was now if I need a nostalgia fix I'll go else where good luck everyone !! Cheers
