Each aspect ‘feels niche’ to someone because its a 1 size fits all solution… and they never fit all… Over time extra variety would have to be added to maintain enough ‘things to do’ for each type of MMO player so the opinions that everyone is giving now is very important. I am sure Riley will look through this thread and note it.
if implimented this should be a que thing and make a new form about it its unrelated
nope. its just as related as everyone else comments. Dont be salty because i won the goblin ideas thread.
…new idea, forum based trickster battle ground. Its exactly like the normal battle grounds, but its all text, and it takes place on the forums…we can flesh that one out later.
I see your point, but at the same time I disagree. High end shard dungeons can be done with a group and not everyone has to be super uber to complete them.
The raid update I think is great because there is “normal” and “hard” so now regular players can play as well as Hardcore players can get a challenge.
The goblin on the other hand - is hardly obtainable to anyone other than those who are uber spec’d.
It’s a total niche to a very small group of players.
YOU HAVE BEEN AWARDED 1 TRICKSTER TOKEN!

I guess let them have their fun. Not trying to ruin the party, but kinda sad I won’t get to participate due to lack of time invested.
It’s ok though, you’re right as the same types of things happened in WoW as well - the only issue that I have is that WoW was pretty well polished by the time that content started coming out.
All about priorities.
EDIT: I learned something now thankfully that the population in this game is terribly tiny with one or two guilds that are extremely large and have considerable time invested and basically run the entire world. No wonder when I Q for a BG it never pops because no one wants to play with super uber spec’d and just get murdered over and over.
I’ll never flag!~ Screw the goblin you can have it! lol
Got to “63/209”…
Nooooooooooooooooope. scrolls up xD

So I kinda like the 2 hour window thing, it means you have to play the game a little, and it’s something that will pop up while you’re playing, it’s like you all moan that the BG’s don’t pop, but I have had no problem doing them even in the times when there are less people online, I’m even Rank 2 - Champion now, if you guys actively played the game then you would have never let a PvE’er like me get that highly ranked when I’m not exactly “top-tier” at PvP, so I don’t see how you can be getting less BG queues unless you’re just no longer coming online and then using BGs as an excuse for it, and it’s rare I see many of you these days, Shiki is the only one that has killed me in the overworld, and there has been a few others running around with red names too, not just me, wasn’t that your goal, to PvP so much no one would bother turning it on? the rest of you just aren’t around so maybe come online during that 2 hour window and queue for BG’s and hunt people down in the overworld

Much less people like me have been on, but I know I’ve been waiting for an update like this for a reason to log on. With no full team in BG, with such rare overworld pvp, a pretty uninspiring honor system, and with a ton of all mats it’s just kinda meh. I could just run shards all the time but I’ve never found that too interesting. Ask not what you can do for your game, but what your game can do for you.
Okay so this is not a solution for either the goblin or the battlegrounds, but I feel like you guys can work a bit with the system. For example what I would do is organize a time where at-least 8 LC members come on to do some battlegrounds. A scheduled time for your activities which should get the queue at-least rolling again for you guys. If this can’t be happening every day then do it on days where most of you are available. Still doesn’t solve the lack of rewards and many other lack of PvP love though but makes the PvP alive again for you guys. I do really feel the current PvP rewards in the game are very lackluster.
so im trying to put a goblin token in the auction house, it lets me put it in the chest, however there is no way for people to find my token in the auction house, can you add them to one of the tabs so they can be bought by other players please? also the old tricksters tokens cannot be sold in the auction house either

I just did the Trickster Goblin with @Burnator @Trumpchange @Rickness_Voidwalker @Shiki and @zachariah_c participating (from my knowledge)…
Issues which made it kinda meh:
- We didnt know where the goblin was, so we didnt know where to go to PvP.
- Invisibility potions kinda kill the fun. if someone snags the goblin first and uses invis, its game over until the next 8 hour timeslot.
- I would love to do it again but 8 hours is just a bit long… maybe 4 hours?

Just participated at the second spawn with at least 3 guilds looking for the goblin and can confirm it didn’t make it any more interesting than the first one.
All i did was going to the rainforest, got 2 quick fights and went back to highsteppe without ever seeing the goblin or the person who killed it (who was invis) or any kind of alert saying the “event” was over.
If the devs intention was to bring back the trickster chest, i’m sorry but this is a total failure, the trickster chest was actually fun.

instead of killing invis pots, maybe the goblin should just have one spawn location per area
also maybe a 5 minute warning that its about to spawn, 5-10 min warning + only one spawn location per area would make it more fun

and when I say one spawn per area I mean per zone, so if it spawns in highstep, it should be in one exact spot in highstep every time, for all I know its already like this, and I sure hope it is
You know if you read the descriptions of how Battlegrounds work, you’d realize that equipment and level are immaterial in them. No effect whatsoever. My main reason for not queueing in is that there is still no “pass” option for if you’re doing something actively. Something for another topic, I suppose

Yah… invisibility is kind of a hard sell… it removes the pvp part.
Would be nice with 4 indicators:
Goblin will spawn in 10 min
Goblin spawned in *****
Goblin killed
Token in highstep
Okay, so this thread completely got out of hand last night in a way that makes it impossible to have a good or productive discussion in any direction that we think is acceptable on these forums.
We are pushing out a patch soon that will address some issues that we’ve gleaned from the original discussion before it got worse, and we will create a new thread for it. But be aware that if it goes the same way and people cannot stay civil or constructive we will have to issue blanket warnings and perhaps silences to people contributing to the state of that discourse.
We have a Code of Conduct for a reason. We understand that emotions can get a little heated when your favorite content or playstyle is affected but it is no justifiable excuse to engage in an all around flamewar and makes us less likely to participate and interact in that “discussion.”
The new thread will be posted shortly.
