Stop Piking the Boat!!

[Fejj]

Forty five minutes between cc openings was embarrassing. Seeing 25 instances of mobs of people piking the boat was just lame. Get out and farm some maps!!!!

During peak times our best opening was 40 min, most were over 50. We can do better.



How'd the other servers do at peak time?

Just shows this method of Turbine setting up events is stupid.

That suuuucks. On Sarlona, the boat would be opened back up in 20~25 minutes *at most*. I swear, I couldn't pike NEARLY as long as I wanted to. :)

Most of those pikers could have been standing anywhere...

They were busy looking at items. Deciding what to do. Making items. Upgrading items. Checking hundreds of items across the forums and wiki and re-evaluating their equipment layout. many were afk. many were just watching the count for their guild while they ate/did other stuff semi afk.

The majority of the map piece farming was taking place OUTSIDE OF THE COVE with the use of grog. It was far more efficient than farming in the pirate area itself for anyone who did not need a compass or coins to buy their first compass. If you were farming the cove for more than your first compass. YOU were the piker. Get some grog and go play somewhere else in the world for much better map piece drop rates that will move the count much quicker than farming the pirate area.

Given the counts on our server was moving right along quickly. Whats the problem damm.. Doors were rarely closed more than 15 minutes. If thats too long. Go get a grog and hit irestone or something with humanoids.

Piking was inevitable once people realized they made doubloons 10x faster from the CC instance than from farming pirates on the island.

Now that doubloons will be worth less and the only way to make any plat is by farming those pirates people will hopefully farm them more.

What I'm saying is Canniths doors were closed for 45 min durring peak times.
