    Default A completely unreasonable Dev request

    But I will ask it anyway. Can you please do another character transfer to Risia prior to Mod 7?

    Thanks.

    Why?

    It would be MUCH easier and more effective for them to give us a significant XP Boost on Risia.

    The Repeating Cycle of

    Risia Sits Dormant

    Characters are Transfered

    People log onto their characters, run around for an hour to check out new stuff, but dont actually do any testing

    Players go back to their regular server.

    Player waits for next mod/Cap increase and requests their characters be transfered again.


    Its COunterProductive. TUrbne has told us many times the Character transfer process is time and resource consuming. and they get ZERO benefit from it.


    The Only way to make Risia worth the effort is to give is a reason to play there. GIve us a Reason to HELP THEM find bugs and problems BEFORE they shove broken code into the Live servers.

    Risia Should be Permanent +50%xp and +1 Loot. THere should NEVER be another character Transfer because Sending Capped Characters over to Risia doesnt encourage peopel to actually Play any quests and find Issues.

    Well, personally, I would rather have my current characters with their crafted loot available for play on Risia. With the limited pops there, you need a little extra power.

    Well, the Point of a Test Server is to Test stuff..... Nobody had Shround Items Crafted when Mod 6 went live and we sure managed to beat the raid and craft all kinds of neat stuff....

    TUrbine has made it Abundantly clear with this last patch that ANYTHING (ANd Everything) can break with a Minor change.... If you have zero incentive to play most of the content, what exactly are you contributing to the developement of the game?

    SO you get yoru Characters transfered with all their Uber Gear.. Great.. You RUn around and check out the few new quests.... Log out and DOnt return until the next mod.... WHat has that accomplished?

    An hour from me would be better than nothing from me if I have to run a 12 level toon. Although, we would be testing monks so what difference would a transfer make? I rescind my transfer request.

    NVM. Was gonna point out all the other changes and enhancements to test as well but I am sure we all get the point. There are a ton of enhancements I am sure people wouldn't mind testing.

    Simply put. Because many many people have come back to this game in the last three to five months. These people have level 10-12 characters on Risia, many of which they don't even play anymore. I have 2 capped characters that I started after the last transfer and I would play those on Risia. And for you to say there should NEVER be another transfer basically says that anyone new to the game since pre Mod 5 will never be able to test on Risia without starting at level 1. That is pretty unfair.

    Its a TEST Server...... If Leveling and Gaining gear was made significantly Easier they would get significantly more benefit from the TEST server.

    Make OLD/Existing COntent 10x XP and New Content +50%XP Seed the Auction House with Uber Gear for Reasonable Buyouts. Boost the Loot Tables......


    Give people a REASON to test stuff and Offer Feedback thather than making it a Sneak Peak Server that generates no benefits for TUrbine or the game in general.

    Default Not unreasonable at all.

    This actually should be standard procedure, as my character is level 9 on risia and I WILL NOT level that character on risia, therfore you lose one person who WOULD test for bugs (Im sure there are many others in this same boat).
