Is RKing an Issue in WoM?

Wrong, and sort of right. It adds challenge to the game, yes. But thats part of the reason why its fun, a game that can be beaten without obstacles isn’t a fun game would you not agree? If there was no challenge (aside from npcs but those are absurdly easy to deal with) then the game would once again, be like a simulator.

If you have an issue about rking just get better, theres no point in posting a SUGGESTION on the forums when you know theres going to be arguments over it.

not true, a simulator is meant to be a game based on one thing, a GAME is a story, along with progression. Adding an arena doesn’t make a game a simulator

I think RKing is only really a big issue in WOM currently because there isn’t much else for anyone to do besides PVP, fishing, or boss grinding. In Arcane Odyssey you probably wont have people just randomly trying to kill you for no reason when instead they would be focusing on leveling up or getting better gear etc. Especially with the game having an actual storyline and paths for progression and stuff.

Here’s a solution.
If you’re entirely aware that the reason people RK right now is because there’s nothing to do aside from:
1: Grind the same 2 bosses forever and pray compensation is actually worth it.
2: Die of old age trying to collect sunken gear.
3: Murder everything in sight.
4: Murder everything in sight for infamy.

Then just wait for AO.
If you’re playing WoM right now, those 4 things are what you’re signing up for.
See if its actually a problem after release THEN make a suggestion.

Ok, but yes it does. Also if your disagreeing with the obstacle part i suggest you find a different game to play because this one clearly isnt for you. If your going to roll over and let whoever is rking beat the shit out of you, either get better or dont play.

^ what they said

A game doesnt need a story to be a game so, wrong again. Adding an arena literally makes it less adventurous, if your gonns fight someone you should foht them in some cool wilderness area, not some set up arena. It takes away a HUGE portion of the adventure feeling from adding this, also im fairly sure nobody really agrees with you.

RKing isn’t really an issue but I really hate how everyone who read your post completely dismisses the PvP arena idea, whether it’s to prevent RKing or not.
It’s like they’re trying so hard to see in you the stereotypes of ideas they were told were inherently bad and completely go over your other reasonings for why a PvP dedicated server would be benefitial for the game.
btw mad cos bad

I agree, pvp should be optional if you aren’t in a guild and don’t have a bounty. This is, however, a fairly unpopular opinion

no, you are just skill issue

mods are just cringe and don’t allow dissenting opinions :pensive:

from day uno of playing you’re expected to get rk’d one way or another. it’s a feature, not an issue; nor should it be fixed. rn wom is devoid of any new activities aside from
– grind the same boss ad nauseum
– fish for the same items ad nauseum
– kill everything ad nauseum
– kill everything for infamy ad nauseum

the most simple solution is tgr. if you think rking is an issue of wom I have diagnosed you with a case called skill issue, with the most simple solution being to get good kid ez ez

RKing is perfectly fine as long as it fits within the game’s vision.

Looking at WOM’s worldbuilding, you randomly kill NPC’s all the time and they randomly kill you back. It would only make sense that players would randomly kill each other as well.

So, if you don’t like RKing, then you better hope that Vetex suddenly wants to rename the War Seas in AO to the Peace Seas instead.

RKing is a very common thing, but it isnt an issue.
Randoms kill other randoms because “reputation is important!!!”, and I RK guilds because “infamy is important!!!”, thats just about it.
Besides you can quite easily just have semi-okay PvP skill and you won’t die to randoms anyways.
