Now that deckhands are not tied to fame, people should be able to lock their fame to neutral. By going to silverhold or white summit or maybe even your profile you can purchase the ability to be anonymous in public actions or cover up it being you (or it could give a randomized name when it is you). could cost what would be your current level (50 requirement) times 10 for “immersion” but likely would be free
make it free and we got a deal
summit
maybe not times 100, like around times 15-20 or smth
50x100 = uhh, oh. not 500. yeah imma go with 10
One of the things i wished for since i began playing
Yes. Or just lock our fame or bounty to what it currently is (it can still be lowered back towards 0 tho to prevent lb players locking at like 1.2million fame/bounty)
i just want it not to increase
YES YES YES! PLEASE ADD THIS! I CAN FINALLY PLAY IN PEACE WITHOUT GETTING HUNTED BECAUSE I HAVE 22 FAME! (complete sentence)
It’s already good enough to not engage in activities that affect your reputation in order to stay neutral. Making things similar to fame lock would make reputation as a whole become useless since who would bother trying to get fame or bounty when all it does is make people possibly get hunted which would waste a lot of your time.
It has to make sense otherwise it wouldn’t be good. For example, fame is related to doing good things and bounty is related to doing bad things, then that means being neutral is the absence of both. You arent neutral when you can kill people with no consequence of affecting your reputation which could lead to you getting hunted. Locking your rep to neutral would also mean we’ll have another form of stagnation in gaining infamy for clans considering vetex wants clans to be mostly pvp, no one can hunt people in clans if literally almost no one has reputation.
If you’re sick of being on either sides then literally dont do anything that could place you in them. Don’t try to get yourselves an advantage of not being seen in the boards by being lazy, practice not doing anything that could affect your reputation fr, It aint that hard.
Me when that’s literally 99% of the things you do in the game:
Also, fame lock would mean the people who hunt players know the person is willing to fight, so less runners for gankers and more peace for pvers.
literally killing ANYTHING affects fame
problem is bounty hunting with one bounty makes it go down, and killing ravenna people do the same. i see what you mean but there is very few things to do that doesn’t effect rep. sure you can get used to it but you can’t sink ships. i see neutral as you can work for both sides as that would be neutral. You do what makes you money because that makes sense. and for PvE players they can’t be bounty hunted (they can be killed but finding them will be harder)(im not siding with any side i do PvP)
thought about this before post, but didn’t mention because when i tend to add more i over inform
pls be civilized, try not to fight
Me when I kill some pirates for loot, get in the agora and receive positive renown for it:
Ikr
Here’s a few things you can’t do if you wanna stay neutral:
Kill basic NPCs
Farm Bosses
Sink Any sort of ship
Dig up a chart
Complete Quests
Rescue or plunder castaways
Be in the agora
Use the bounty board
Hunt your rival
Attack Silverhold
Join AS (you need negative rep)
if you are neutral can you fight anyone? (npc) might add something else to this
And as an add on, Complete any of the story past redwake, since that requires you to kill bosses.
tip for getting people to agree with you:
don’t call them “yourselves an advantage of not being seen in the boards by being lazy”
and also you know: make sure your primary point/idea uh makes sense?
This is one of the most stupidest take I’ve ever seen in the history of AO forums, you really did not think when typing this.
