Yeah I think that's close to what I was getting at; need 24hr to get the base, and idk how allies work yet but I'm assuming they need to wait for their 8hr timer to lock on too, but that would actually work: 24hr from first contact, 8hr to lock onto a new base, max of 3 basically and we sort of make both types of people happy (those that want more action or opportunity for silvers, and those that want to take on higher bases).

The other reason for 8hr timer was so ppl from diff time zones can all lock and play; if we only had one shot I think some people would definitely miss out just due to when they are online , so that's a consideration. I think 8h/24h setup is a definite win. Allies can also join up within 8hrs when they are ready, and have some time to participate (which uses one of their 3 locks but that is fine).

Dan, is that feasible ?

I suggest 2 base locks a day in 12 hour intervals (allows for time zones and people that work during the day) from when you lock on a base: 8 hours to kill it, 4 hour cooldown period, rinse/repeat.. give it any more than that and you'll have naughty people like nocifer annihilating 3/4 of the bases in galaxy legion in one day Besides that, lvl 5 bases and up take a lot of work and time to kill off... Pirates couldn't take down the one we had today, though mainly because most of us have been in and out of the legion a bunch for planets and whatnot

Nice! I think 3x a day is reasonable now cuz it covers all time zones of players covering interval of 8 hours apart that seems to accommodate all players.

Thanks! 1 x a day will shaft certain groups of players forcing legions to be more time-zoned based legions over time reminding me of old raiding days (EQ) that only raids during nights shafting UK players forcing them to form UK-only guild. GL legions already are well spread all over the world and it would suck to encourage the changes in existing legions.. 3x a day minimizes the need of the changes in legions..

Bender. Heh. We DO NOT want to farm low level bases.. It is too boring and not as rewarding. We are after level 4+ bases but higher level is preferable..

I think changing base combat to allow for three battles a day was done in haste, and should be reversed. The bases were originally designed for a 24 hour battle system: i.e. a system where you had 24 hours to fight the targeted base. You can see this in several aspects: how often ability points refresh, upkeep charged, resources distributed, length of time for abilities, etc. Since the bases were set for a 24 hour cycle; I think at minimum the length of time a base battle takes should be changed to 24 hours, if not the original system of one one battle per 24 hours restored. If you kill your base to quickly, i think the solution is not to blame the system, but rather find a base worthy for you to fight.

8 hours is a long time. Its good enough to disable a base. Depending on whos on. But i like it with the new improvement. Otherwise we couldnt really get the silver badges for the new modules fast enough. 3x Is fine, I just dont want it at 24 hrs again.
